Zune Desktop is a Neat Software once you get a hang of it..

Here are few tips I have found to make it much more easier and smooth to navigate..:

The best way to surf your collection I have personally found is from Artist>ALL CONTENT > By Date Added.. This way you wont miss your new songs and keep going back to old ones you have in your memory..

To Que a track Right Click on that track and select 'Add to now playing' ..

Use Playlists.. its a great way to organize your tracks according to your taste and your choice, and not by artist and album name .. Here are few examples of Playlists you can create and than just right on any track you listen and add it .. "Morning Tracks.. Evenings .. Soft

.. Female Vocals .. Chillout .. Travel/Commute .. For Christine .."

Listen to PICKS, they are awesome for me so far, I have found so many great similar taste to mine from PICKS.. its very accurate I think lol..

Download tracks to your collection, not albums, to save space.. BTW all downloading is free as long as you are subscribed.

'Love' the tracks you like, it makes your PICK even more accurate..

My Playcount is ZUNE.net is so detailed, if they overhaul that website a little bit and make it look better.. I would dump my last.fm profile and move to zune.NET as my main social music profile..

I am building my whole new music collection all from ZunePass and MP.. and here is the link to my last.fm profile, just to give you a hint how much of a music collection i had before which I am giving up in transition from CDs/Torrents/MP3s to Legal Cloud based Download System. 10 bucks a month and download anything you want, I think its a pretty sweet deal over all that torrent downloading and transferring files to SD Card over cable syncing..

Zune is available in US, UK, Italy, and Spain.

Word on the street is the service is set for WW Launch.

**** itune on windows at least, the only reason why i use itune is to download their music format, AAC. that is it, it's so frustrating. when i type song/artist names in search bar, it has to connect to itune store everytime i type something; same goes for the files in the library, when i click one album, songs and artists, it has to connnect to the itune store and i just wanna rip it in half...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josephislee:
Has anyone else experienced a monumental decrease in benchmark scores after the 3.1 update?? My quadrant scores dropped from 1900-2450 to 1400-1700 MAX. Also, hardware keyboard seemed to stay the same but stock android one screen keyboard has been severely lagging for me, as well as the browser scrolling.

Already tried flashing this update, still not working.

Please, any help would be greatly appreciated
[General Questions and Answers] foodev:
Hi!

I installed slade87's latest CM7 ROM on my Mini Pro - thanks for the great work, I didn't try all too much, the UI feels really really snappy, and the GPS seems to work better than with the stock ROM.

However, I do wonder if I can somehow avoid having to enter a Google account on this ROM. The original ROM didn't require it (just for selected features), but the CM7 ROM doesn't even allow me to even make calls without a Google account.

I couldn't figure out if this is caused by CM7, or if it is an upstream Gingerbread issue. Maybe there is another ROM for the Mini Pro I should be looking at in order to avoid this problem?
[General Questions and Answers] foodev:
Froyo CM6-latest works

Using the latest CM6 ROM I found, I didn't have that problem. The Google account is only requested for apps that actually need it. Is there any Android 2.3 ROM which works the same way?
[General Questions and Answers] x10man:
worked for me i leave it till i want market as i can st up wifi first i do have net but wifi is faster i asume your using 14.5 as i am and its fine
[General Questions and Answers] foodev:
My bad ... The CM7 layout was so large that the skip button didn't fit on the screen, and I missed it. Thanks for confirming it wasn't the ROM!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccr515:
I used the one click root and all it did was unlock my bootloader and then it didn't flash the recovery. So I just wanna know if there any apps like z4root that can just add superuser.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh4nk:
It took me maybe 5 minutes, if that, to root my ns4g. Cmd-fastboot oem unlock. Then flash the zip. There's a sticky thread with all the info.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maximilian Mary:
There is no known one-click root method for the Nexus S.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borky_16:
,but for the 4g version is a script :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maximilian Mary:
This is true. Do you mean the one by shabbypenguin/Chris378? Yeah, that is pretty cool. An automated guide that holds your hand though the whole process is way easier than a list of downloads and instructions that says "Read carefully, because if you do something wrong, your phone will explode."
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyaiphone:
That actually is pretty cool where can we get this from?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkd:
one click root in the development section works. Just read carefully before you hit enter in the command prompt, you might skip steps.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maximilian Mary:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1096384

This is only for rooting the NS4G (d720) using windows. Even though it is a semi-automated process, it is still a good time for being anal about reading carefully and performing each step exactly as described.

Edit: Oh, and read the readme first.
[Acer Iconia A500] kwparker80:
UPDATED: Release 5.0.1 fixed the problem. Back to being my favorite browser!

If the update to version 5 of Dolphin HD refuses to load pages or won't load them at all on your A500, please go to our blog and comment with specifics so we can refer them to Dolphin in the next day or two.

I had the same problems with the beta version and uninstalled it immedietly. We want to keep this A500 specific, but are interested to know if other devices are having the same issues.

Please comment here:

http://everythingiconia.blogspot.com/2011/06/dolphin-browser-50-broken-on-iconia-tab.html

We are not doing this to make money, so don't click any ad links while on our site unless you see something you just have to click on. (We only make a penny per click anyway).

Let's make sure Dolphin pays attention to this quickly.

[Acer Iconia A500] n1nj4dude:
works fine for me. i just dont like using it because it doesnt seem to be able to download any file over 1mb. it just saves the html if its over. so im using opera. seems to be a better browser anyway.
[Acer Iconia A500] techpal:
Agree i too using Opera Mobile since it can download anything.

Only negative is no Flash in Opera yet.
[Acer Iconia A500] apple_hd:
It's because that Google hasn't open the Android 3.0 source code.

but it seems that Opera Mobile support HTML5.
[Acer Iconia A500] daveid:
Yeah, the update gave me problems, it is sporadic and hard to track down. When it occurs the pages fail to load properly, and I have to force the program stopped (application manager or task manager) to restore it to a functional state.

But, when it is working, it is a very nice update...
[Acer Iconia A500] rcmolski:
Same for me...I tried the Dolphin beta and had all sorts of issues where the pages wouldn't load any more. I uninstalled it and went back to the stock browser, which is working pretty well since the update. The previous Dolphin HD version was awesome.

Yesterday I installed the newest released version of Dolphin HD and am sharing it's use with the stock browser. It seems to be working okay, but I haven't done much surfing in the last day or so.
[Acer Iconia A500] firstflyer:
Update

Go the Dolphin home page and under the goole search bar you will see "page loading disturbing you now?". It appears this issue may have been addressed with a new beta. It has worked for me but I have only been using it for a short while.
[Acer Iconia A500] internetpilot:
Solved it for me. I was having problems with both my HTC Evo 4G and my Acer A500 with v5.0.0.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
So after trying, and trying, and trying some more to get Faux's Roms/Kernels to run on my G2x. I know a handful of other people are having the same issues.

Due to the lack of efforts on trying to get this to work other than "Get a new device" (which I refuse to believe that its the release date of the phones that can't do it) I would like to give a bit of info about what i've done so far, and start a think tank to get those of us who want to run this great rom a future where we CAN run it!

So that being said;

When faux first released the AOSP gingerbread and I flashed it, I HAVE had it running. Something between the most recent updates, and the Clockwork recovery updates caused me to not be able to. SO

I put my phone back to complete stock 100%

Then rooted the phone.

flashed the original clockwork recovery ( orange color one ) (EXTERNAL not INTERNAL)

copied over faux AOSP latest, gapps, and ext4 kernel

wiped data

wiped cash

wiped dalvik

format /system

installed from SD faux AOSP, then flashed gapps

rebooted

(went to LG screen, then went black, then lit-up, then black again)

pulled battery (went back into recovery)

I've tried full wipe/format then flashing aosp with and without gapps, and fixed permissions, and tried it without fixing permissions. NOTHING.

Any other ideas from anyone else who can't get it to work, or maybe couldn't but then figured out how?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] worker1:
check the md5 checksum of the ROM
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
you wanna give me more info about how to do that and what it is?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diablos991:
Md5 checksum is a unique string if numbers that you compare to ensure that you did not download a corrupt file.

Most rom cookers will provide an md5 that you can compare against.

Google md5 checksum for freeware to generate the number.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
Thanks for the reply, i'll give this a check :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
So after downloading the 1.2.0 file again, and comparing the MD5 checksum's are both the same:

MD5 checksum: 295e1224a85794ec354e69906432c560
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Mine worked right away. I went from stock to eb froyo to cm7 then to this. I did the usual wipes prior to installing. I'm using the ext4 red text recovery.

Not sure if it matters but try cm7 then wipe then install this rom?

G2x with faux AOSP
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
Testing now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
After trying, now it no longer goes to the black screen. I flashed cm7, then wiped ALL again, and reflashed AOSP ginger 1.2.1, rebooted, and it is stuck now at the LG screen and does nothing ( I waited for 10 minutes at the LG screen )
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
did you flash the ext4 kernel after you flashed the rom? if you have ext4 partitioned and you flash a rom with an ext3 kernel it will boot hang until you install a kernel that uses ext4...

easiest way to solve this is restore the stock nandroid, which uses ext3 and start all over with whatever you want, in your case from there wipe everything, flash rom, then flash whatever ext4 kernel you want...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
Latest update:

I flashed CM7 back on the phone, using red cw recovery, then tried the latest faux cm7 kernel which has ext4 and it would not boot, it hung at LG, then went to a black screen.

did a full wipe again, and didn't flash the kernel, and the phone boots fine with cm7

so whatever the issue is, it seems to be only with things faux is cooking/building ( i've flashed EVERY rom for g2x and they all work fine except faux )
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sryan1983:
When you say "full wipe" are you formatting /system as well?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
Yes that is correct full wipe;

wipe data

wipe cash

wipe dalvik

format /system
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
hmmm sounds like a kernel incompatibility of some sort... i dont have everything on my phone right now to try and recreate the situation or else id help you out... i will check tomorrow and if you have not figured it out i will see what i can do...

for now, nandroid back to complete stock and start from there and see if that fixes anything...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
Thanks for your input, i've already went to 100% stock, and rooted, put cw recovery (red) on and wiped everything, then flashed faux and gapps, and it didn't work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EtherealRemnant:
intriguing. I was thinking it was a hardware change that did it. Have you tried the Trinity kernel? I am guessing that something must be changed in the hardware between ones that work and ones that don't. I have run every version of this ROM since day 1 without a single issue with booting. That includes all kernels as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
I am in the

EXACT

same boat.

I've flashed every possible rom and it loads without fail. Anything faux and it locks at the LG boot screen.

Trinity kernel loads just fine as well as all the stock ones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
Wow I'm so dumb... after you flash the rom then do a wipe and then flash the kernel of your choice...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tashafa:
You need to flash 0.1.1 ext4 kernel if you are using CW recovery *RED*. Faux's AOSP rom only comes with ext3 built-in. You have to flash ext4 kernel after flashing rom then GApps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
JHaste

"Wow I'm so dumb... after you flash the rom then do a wipe and then flash the kernel of your choice"

-flash the ROM then do a wipe, then flash the kernel???? What was the point in flashing the ROM then?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Oops. I flashed rom then booted. Then gapps then reboot. Then ext4 kernel.

G2x with faux AOSP
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
Flashing the ext4 kernel after the rom, then gapps doesn't change anything, it still doesn't boot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] javolin13:
also for the record, faux Froyo rom kernel doesn't boot on any froyo rom for me either.

After all of this, I believe it has to do something with what faux is doing in his rom/kernels because all the other gingerbread roms and froyo roms and kernels boot fine, just not his.

I was able to boot his VERY FIRST release of the AOSP, but after the first, nothing else would boot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] skater4690:
i think its just our phones certain people cant flash his stuff im one of the unlucky that cant and im no noob been doing this since the g1 and from what ive seen its the phone itself something is wrong with it...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
Update:

Got another G2x to play with, Faux stuff flashes without a problem on this one. It appears we have some hardware differences here that cause the handset to barf with some roms/kernels.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ekpyr:
I said this in another thread, but it's probably your hardware yield quality. faux UVs the ROM a little bit, probably causing the CPU to fail.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
I don't think it's the CPU since I was using the standard voltage releases. I was able to undervolt morfics kernel without a problem. What I think is the culprit is possible bad memory blocks in combination with his releases. Boot wasn't being written entirely is my guess. Oh well, at least this one flashes correctly.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyuubi08:
does anyone have the circular battery mod that was in this rom. i loved the battery, but the rom is still a little to buggy for my tastes
[Android Software Development] mncessna:
hi everybody!

over the course of 30 years, i've developed software on a lot of hardware platforms and operating systems. so i'm not a noob by any means to programming.

BUT, with that said, my last years of development were on the windows mobile platform. i jumped to the android about 8 months ago with a Droid X. it's been great, but the developer bug in me wants to create something for the droid...

i've spent 2-3 months reading about android development and working my way through several great development books ("Hello Android," The Pragmatic Programmers).

Do any of you have any examples of implementing a timer? i want to create a unique clock as a live wallpaper and i need to setup a 1 second timer that upon completion asynchronously informs another thread to begin processing. there is just so much development data on the web that i'm drowning in it!!!!

any help, pointers, and/or web-site references would be greatly appreciated.

thanks a lot,

marvin
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Hi. I'm like you; I've been a C/C++ developer and worked with various hardware (mostly microcontrollers) for 20+ years. I've only recently gotten into java.

Here's a sample I wrote for someone a while back to demonstrate a timer. It isn't quite what you're looking for, but it should be adaptable to your situation.

It creates an activity, then uses a timer task to countdown from 10 to 0 and sends messages to a handler to updates the title of the app to reflect this.

import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.Message;

public class MyTestTimerActivity extends Activity{
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

Timer t=new Timer();
t.scheduleAtFixedRate(mTimerTask,1,1000);

}

Handler mHandler=new Handler(){
public void handleMessage(Message msg){
switch(msg.what){
case 0:
setTitle("hello_"+msg.arg1);
break;
case 1:
setTitle("timer_"+msg.arg1);
break;
}
super.handleMessage(msg);
}
};

protected TimerTask mTimerTask=new TimerTask(){
private int count=10;
private Message msg;
@Override
public void run(){
msg=mHandler.obtainMessage(0);
msg.arg1=count;
msg.sendToTarget();
count--;
if(count==-1){
cancel();
}
}
};
[Android Software Development] mncessna:
Thanks Gene. i'll study what you wrote and work it in as i can.

i spent 15 years writing asynchronous driver software on various VAX/VMS computers. it was so easy to do this task (sigh).

the problem i'm having with learning java, android SDK, and all is that is seems like i'm going around in circles reading about the various ways to do this task. and then i get confused with doing it on java or via xml.....whew. reminds me of the early days of my career.

thanks again.

All i did was rooted this by superoneclick and removed tethermanager0326.apk and installed wireless tether it works good should i be fine? i see new rom flash blah blah blah is it worth?

Will there be honeycomb on infuse 4g?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
honey comb? why would you want that? anyway no one as far as i know has been charged for tethering after freezing or removing that app. the roms dont offer much but a couple are deodexed which makes them smaller, maybe faster and makes them better for themeing, other than that you can probably do everything else on your own.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skwo:
Hi recently I installed Darky 10.1 and IMHO my deodexed JVO was much better, and now when I noticed that hardcore have a final kernel for gingerbread I think deodexed JVO + speedmod for gingerbread will be a winner here.

How do I go back from Darkys Rom to stock JVO? Do I need to remove the lagfix? or I cant flash the stock JVO with bootloader and re-partition, then flash deodexed JVO?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skwo:
Somebody? I'm really worried about if I need to disable lagfix or not (assuming Ill flash stock JVO with bootloader).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neswii:
So Juwe's ROM has this thing, in which he says I MUST flash 2.3.3 before well flashing his version. So I downloaded 2.3.3 the one he said, with bootloaders and all, and it contained all 3 files, but theres a pit file, thats missing.

Is the pit file neccesary anymore? Or can I just flash with odin.

Also, can I delete everything in the phone before flashing 2.3.3? Does ticking repartitioning do this?

Cant I just load juwes straight from Odin? Guessing not, since darkys has an odin version.

I searched around but got many answers, so just to be sure i asked.

Also, I read its very reccomended my cell phone battery is full before attempting a flash, does this hold true for this procedure? Or is that a myth?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
You should always fully charge your battery, it helps avoid re calibration issues....more importantly if you are flashing and there its not enough charge in your battery you could lose the flash and If this happens while bootloaders are transferring, you are in big trouble!

As for the rest, perhaps juwes forum is the place to ask ;)

[Droid X General] justin251:
Was z4 rooted then unrooted to upgrade to GB.

I'm running the stock rom right now. OTA update downloaded just fine. The phone resets like it's suppose to then half way through the update an exclamation point appears and it stops then boots normal.

After everything is loaded a box says, "Update Failed".

How can I manually update? I'm not really into the rooting thing. I called verizon and 3 different people said that there is no software update for the Droid X.

I figured if I had to tell THEM about the update that I wasn't gonna get anywhere with them.

Thanks

[Droid X General] lamarrk:
I've got a similar issue. OTA update failed (I un-rooted but didn't flash).

I then used RSD lite to flash the sbf back to 2.3.320. When I check for system updates it tells me there aren't any.

Do I just wait a day or so until my phone recognizes the update and downloads it or is there something else I'll have to do?
[Droid X General] mrkite38:
You need to be on 2.3.340, I think.
[Droid X General] mgerbasio:
If you unrooted, you need to SBF back to 340. I used Z4 root/unroot like many others and it just wouldn't update, same as you, it downloaded but about 25% through it failed.
