[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c3bc3b:
I am new to Android and the Galaxy Tab (which explains my ignorance and frustration). Despite much web searching and reading I still do not understand how how to tell what is an app and what is a widget and then how to organize apps and widgets. I do not want to use a 3rd party app organizer (though you may tell me I have to) because this seems so fundamental that it must be my poor understanding that is to blame.

Specifically I have a Home screen with 9 dots (for the 9 tiles - some of which have icons, but I do not know whether these are apps or widgets).

If I press the Apps 'button' I have 5 almost fully populated pages of apps. But these are not organized as I want. I do not seem able to reorganize these within apps (long tapping moves an icon onto one of the 9 tiles, from where it seems to immovable again).

Ergo, I am frustrated. Can anyone explain (or point me to a good explanation of):

- how organizing apps and widgets works

- what is the difference between these in practice

- if there is way to re-organize the apps (including adding pages for specufic activities).

Thank you

Hi all,

I searched here on Android forum but I did'nt find any reference to this very nice development tool:

http://www.basic4ppc.com/

does someone of you know it? what do you think about it?

I find it very interesting, special for people (like me) that has some programming skill but not a specific java knowledge... it costs a reasonable price (starting from 39$) and it seems really powerfull, with a very original integrated designer tool... I'm thinking to buy it... I would like to have your dev's impressions and evaluations...
[Frameworks] Erix_code:
[mod edit]
[Frameworks] thedesolatesoul:
I am using it and I think it is an excellent development tool.

Takes a lot lesser time than Java and if you are familiar with VB or any other Basic, then you will be up to speed in no time.

Besides they have very good support.
[Frameworks] Kvacka:
Any more reviews? I'm very interested in this application.
[Frameworks] good4y0u:
love it

personally i love it. the fact that its fast (and uses basic :) ) . its just a great program. they also added error support for your internal coding mistakes....so they are really moving forward...if your a student you can get a %50 discount on the enterprise edition . ( i did ) :)

thank you guys for sharing

I am also interested

I am just learning to make apps, I literally have no experience yet. Would Basic4android be good for the type of app I'm trying to make?

I am needing to make a fairly simple, mostly text-based app, kind of like a user manual/instruction guide. Key features I am needing for this app would be:

*a "find" like CTRL+F to find words or phrases

*an index to jump to specific sections

*rip/copy protection so people can't steal the text and put it on a different device or computer

*smooth scrolling and fit-to-screen text

I know nothing about coding but I am very willing to learn! if this program makes it more simple, please let me know!
[Frameworks] good4y0u:
Basic for android could and would work. It is based off of visual basic. Which is a windows based code format...

I would recommend learning JAVA. Basic for Android is mostly for people who already Know visual basic....such as myself...

Learn Java. There are MANY xda tutorials on it.

Yes, B4A and B4i are both awesome, easy to learn and very powerful, best on the market, no exceptions.

Hey guys I need to send my phone back for warranty replacement and I am afraid to use Odin one click, because I know it bricked a friends phone recently beyond even JIG repair. His was an 11.02 or something and mine is a 10.07.

All I have flashed is DG's Cognition if that helps.

What should I do to go back to factory stock, will oneclick kill mine like his?

I cant afford to brick this one so I just need some confirmation, thanks guys.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Odin back to stock is the preferred method. While there is risk of brick, it generally doesn't happen that often. I have used it countless times.

But Odin will bring you back to stock and wipe any evidence from having a custom ROM.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SBSMALFJ

*Also, you could always say you were trying to update via kies and it stopped working;) (if anything went wrong) They won't ever know and it'll just get flashed stock firmware once they get ahold of it anyway.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echelonMCRhartgrenade:
I believe you can flash back to stock using OdinOneClick. But just to be sure you can flash this package instead

--> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=995143

That package flashes everything but the two bootloaders and param.lfs. Meaning if anything goes wrong you still can use the combos or a jig to get back into download mode :).

Just to double check you use:

Vol up, Vol down & power key to get into recovery mode?

&

Vol up, Vol down & usb cable to get into download mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
It doesn't matter at all if you brick it. You're sending it in for a warranty replacement already. If odin one click bricks it tell them some bs about kies doing it.

You really think I didn't search these insanely complicated and deep forums?

Something about a later build phone. But nobody seems to know much about this issue.

So needless to say I would like to be a bit cautious now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
About as necessary as you starting a new thread for a common issue instead of posting to an existing related thread. And the problem with later build phones (1008 and up) is also well documented in here. Be cautious all you want, but respect the forum by not starting redundant threads.

i tried setting up a upnp and it worked fine over wifi but doesnt seem to work over 4g and im not sure what else i can use to setup a working stream.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] xformulax:
if you have the option to set up an ip address in your upnp player, you could try a service like dynamic dns to give your server an outside IP, you'll have to forward the ports in your router, but instead of connecting to 192.168.1.100, you'd connect to myserver.dyndns.com in your upnp app.

how are you getting 4g to the transformer? some sort of myfi?

Thank you in advance.

Thank you for you reply.

I hope you'll find a way to read your stream over 4G.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] CarsnGadgets:
I was having similar problems, my TF can see the movies on my shared drive, but when i click them it cannot play them using the 'my net' app.

I have installed 'PLEX'

http://www.appbrain.com/app/plex-for-android/com.plexapp.android

(and the server on my PC.)

you use the server program and add the folders you want shared, then you use the app and you can stream lots more formats than the 'my net' app and you can specify the transfer speed/bandwidth etc.

the server app grabs meta data for the files you add from the net and adds DVD cover art to your movies as well.

I didnt need to do any port forwarding or anything complex with it installed on Windows 7 home premium, it just works.

It also says it will work over 3G/4G but I havent tried yet.

Also, just discovered, the app UPnPlay http://www.appbrain.com/app/upnplay/cx.hoohol.silanoid is very good, it allows you to choose the app that you want to use to play the streaming movie with,

so you can use rockplayer moboplayer or vplayer etc. I havent found a single file format that wont stream yet using a UPnPlay-rockplayer combo.

still no luck on finding something that would work over 4g beside myCloud.

Hi guys

I am a noob please help me TT

I have upgraded my phone to Darky's Rom resurrection version from Froyo and now I am finding camera has become bad.

It takes slower to take pictures and the geotagging is always on and cannot be deactivated.

I really like the froyo version of camera and I really wish to use it on my new firmware.

Is there any way in which froyo cameras can work on gingerbread models?

or can i just install camera.apk from froyo to gingerbread?

Suggestions would be much appreciated..

Thanks in advance :)

Im sure this has been addressed before, but I just cant seem to find it.

I am currently running phiremod nook 6.3, whenever I attempt to set a wallpaper it makes me resize it in the gallery, it then looks awful, i only get a portion of the picture. Back when I was running stock you could just use the wallpaper setting built into nook color and it would display the whole picture. Any sugestions on how to get this effect with CM7?

QuickPic (marketplace) works great to get the most out of your wallpaper in portrait mode. For landscape, Wallpaper Wizardrii (also marketplace) works ok. (It works for portrait mode too, it's just not my first choice.)

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
Spec wise, they are nearly identical phones, both with keyboards, face buttons, 4G and on the same carrier, so the competition could be pretty fierce. I know Samsung has been slow with updates, but I'm wondering if HTC's phone running2.3.4 might motivate them to upgrade us a little faster, given that many keyboard lovers won't see many differences in store, other than the sidekick having a number row and the 4g slide spec sheet saying 2.3 instead of 2.2. Sammy might want to close the gap a little faster if they want to make sure they reap some profits for a year at least, maybe more.

I got sidekick because sidekick has always had the best keyboard. And specs are not similar.. mt4gs blows the sk4g out of the water. (dual core proc, 8mp cam, 3.7 screen..)

I'm going to get the mt4gs as my fun phone, but my daily will probably be the sidekick(as the keyboard in the mt4gs probably is the same crappy one on the mt3gs).

Just my feelings on the subject.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] {Angel}:
I was on the same boat as you. I couldn't stand the camera on the GB roms, it was too slow taking pictures, even went to XXJVO from JVH, same problem and on JVO found the camera to be really unstable a few times and make my system crawl. My solution was to go back to froyo, latest XWJSD is rock solid and to be honest there is nothing any of the GB roms can do that jsd cannot do, except for the crt off anim and overscroll glow, but then you need some mods for that as samsung has stripped it down to be pretty much like their froyo roms except for some cosmetic changes.

So try the camera.apk from froyo, if it doesn't work I recommend going to froyo if it's annoying enough for you, slap a GB theme on it and call it GB, you won't know the difference. And wait for a more stable release from Sammy.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooster123:
Hi,

Have just purchased a new Nexus one from the US (am based in India). So the phone is basically not under warranty.

The phone is a new piece and everything is in place. However there is a part of the screen that is unresponsive. It's the part where the "asdfghjkl" row of the keyboard is.

Have tried hard and soft reset

Was wondering if anyone else has faced such issues and whether this is a hardware or a software issue. Any suggestions on what I should do next?

Again I am based in New Delhi India.

Cheers,
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
If the screen is completely non-responsive to touch in that area (not just in the keyboard), it sounds like your digitizer (the touchscreen itself) is broken. I would contact the people you bought it from, because they may be willing to accept a DOA (Dead On Arrival) exchange.

If they aren't willing to do it, there are replacement digitizers you can get online, however, it does require a little finesse to get the phone apart and the touchscreen replaced.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooster123:
Yup,

Its completely non responsive in that area. A couple of time they do respond by sliding over the key. But touching the key does not register.

Replacing a digitizer sounds scary. Is there anyway I could possibly ensure that it isn't software issue or something before I take the leap and purchase a digitizer.

Also could someone give me links to a place from where I could purchase a digitizer and a good guide to replace the same.

Cheers,
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
About the only way I can think of to check if it isn't software is to load different firmwares on there. You could try the passimg method to take you back to an older stock version of android, or you could unlock the bootloader and try a custom one like CyanogenMod.

Replacing the digitizer is a pretty in-depth job, but there was a guy on youtube that documented him doing it with like a 40+ part videos. It is what I used when I replaced mine.

As for replacement parts, I used ebay, but there are other sites out there that sell them. A search on google should pull them up (I can't do it here as the ones I found were blocked).
