[HTC Sensation] wouwout:
Yesterday I installed launcherpro plus on my Sensation. I love the 4x6 grid and smoothness.

Naturally I've selected launcherpro as default when pressing home. However, after a while (possibly after approximately 20 home clicks) it pops up the selection screen for sense and launcherpro. The setting for the default launcher has been lost. I reselect launcherpro as default and it's fine again for a while.

I've tried go launcher, and the same is happening. Sense is not playing along?
[HTC Sensation] Stan3k:
That's odd. I have been using LauncherPro for a couple of weeks and it has never forgotten my default launcher.
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
Try backing up LauncherPro data (in LP Preferences) and then clearing the defaults for the homescreen settings (in the Application Settings) then clearing the data for both Sense's launcher and LauncherPro :) No idea if it'll work, but it's worth a try...
[HTC Sensation] ntellegence:
Did you check make this the default action when it asks which browser? If an operation has more than one option ie Sense and LP android will keep asking until one is set as default.
[HTC Sensation] wouwout:
Thanks for the options, but I still have this problem. Of course I select 'set as default', the issue is that after a while (it seems completely random) it pops up the question what launcher I's like to use. It doesn't remember my setting for Launcherpro.

I've cleared all data for both Sense (2 processes/apps with the name HTC Sense) and Launcherpro. No luck. Annoying. Running 1.28.401.1
[HTC Sensation] cheesinar:
Are you using home switcher from the market?
[HTC Sensation] wouwout:
I used it and was able to switch/reset however removed it later because I thought it might interfere. Didn't help.
[HTC Sensation] malshadows:
I'm having the same exact problem too since yesterday. Can't remember if i've updated any app that might have caused this. Mine is more frequent, after selecting go launcher as the default launcher, it pops up again after a few seconds.. Plz help anyone... I'm using Sensation XE with Android Rev 4.1.13 rom with go launcher..
[HTC Sensation] FrameworkTraining:
Are you using backed up settings that include the Calendar? I tried bringing my settings over from CM7 to Virtuous Inquisition and it was the calendar causing LP to bomb out - I found this out by starting afresh (deleted app data through app manager) and adding widgets one at a time.

Shame, cos I prefer LP's calendar over the stock one. Bit annoying that LP doesn't get any updates anymore (woulnd't mind seeing some new transition effects).
[HTC Sensation] malshadows:
okay i found out what was wrong... i uninstalled all my recent updated apps using titanium backup, reinstalled them one by one and found out that its was one of my updated app called 'football kaki' that was causing the problem.. i reinstalled an earlier version of that app + data and everything went smooth.

i think the newer version of that app had some disagreements with go launcher..

well guess i hav to settle for the lesser then, at least i dun hav the annoying default launcher pop ups... ;)
[HTC Sensation] abu busyra:
mine also happen to suffer this problem...Go launcher btw.

any more idea on how to find the culprit is?
[HTC Sensation] Sensation-al!:
There's a chance launcherpro is crashing, it gives you the option to use sense if it ctashes
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mingolianbeef:
Hey XDA, this is Ognimnella! Or soon, BFG SgtRecon (Xbox Live, OpenFeint, and Gameloft Live name) an I am presenting MytouchSensation v1.0 . I want to make my own rom because I know what I and many others would want in a rom! I hav spent time looking over the forums and the internet, watching what ppl hav been asking about. Just to name a few, this will include

1. 3D Gallery

2. Google Music Player

3. Netflix (compatibility check disabled)

4. Theme Chooser

5. "Window" Marketplace*

That's just a few, more are coming as I begin building! Not that I put a star by window marketplace. Basically, there is a them iin theme chooser that gives a 3d like UI, and when you open the marketplace, your background is visible still, so if you have a beautiful LWP that you dread not being able to look at when you open the marketplace, never again.

- All I need is support on this one, just be on the lookout. I was so excited that I couldn't hold the news! To contact me

(Email)bfg_sgtrecon@hotmail.com

(Site)blakkfiredevs.webs.com (coming soon)

PM me here on the site

If you would like to be a part of this project then PM ME!!! Do not email because PM-ing me will get to me quicker as I am ALWAYS checking this app/website. My email is more of a "Once-in-a-blue-moon" kinda thing. Okay, thank you all in advance :)

p.s. Also, should I include the modified HVGA compatible Asphalt 5 app in the Rom or would that just be bloatware for you guys that you can install yourselves, feedback is appreciated!

Phone: Mytouch 3G Slide

Rom: CM 7.0.3

Rooted: Yes

S-Off: No

Best Market App: XDA

Best Game: Asphalt 5 HD (HVGA)

Best Non-Market App: ALL OF 'EM!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mojoffdawal:
Unless your aim is to have an Asphalt theme, I would pass on including the game in the rom. It would definitely be bloatware for many people out there, as cool as it is to play the game on our little mytouch that could. Best of luck!
[Xperia Arc General] Super Chimp:
I have a recurring issue where my Arc when turned on does not connect to the network, no data and not even texts etc. Though it does display the network. I have to turn the Arc off & on again and usually after waiting a bit it will then connect.

The SIM card I am using is less then 18 months old. It looks in fairly good condition, apart from a slight bit of scuffing on the front.

So is it likely to be the SIM or phone causing this issue?
[Xperia Arc General] jakhan86:
did u update to 2.3.3? before the update i had this issue for a few days where if i went out of a signal area and came back, the mobile network wouldnt connect. This was after I changed my number and got a new sim. I checked the phone information (dial *#*#4636#*#*) and found that mobile network displayed as unknown and only connected after I restarted my fone or by toggling airplane mode. The old sim worked fine though. Try to use a different sim and see the results. Its mostly the sim and/or the provider.
[Xperia Arc General] Super Chimp:
I have had it happen before and after the 2.3.3 update. One weird thing with this SIM is where in the settings it's supposed to display my number it has always come up as unknown.
[Xperia Arc General] jakhan86:
its the same for every other smartphone ive seen. own number is displayed as unknown. try a different sim in your phone and try to adjust your existing sim and how its seated. my problem occurred for a week and for some reason, it went away without any reason. it wasnt tied to any specific firmware version. i asked the same question and it still remains a mystery. wait a week then see if you can get a new sim.

however, faster way is to enable airplane mode and then disable it instead of rebooting. this will get all your communications working. hope this helps :)

edit: oh and dont forget to hit thanks. i love being thanked. its my favourite thing in the world. :P

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zealofsoul:
I just upgraded from 2.9 to 3.5, and I've noticed all the other language support other than Alphabets are gone. Japanese, Korean, and Chinese letters show up as squares.

Is there way I can fix this? Like, by extracting a file to flash over or something?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
+1

Hmmmm, now that you mentioned it - I checked mine and sure enough, the Asian fonts are no longer displaying on mine running the smooth as silk (otherwise) GSB V3.5 - browser, music player, and map apps.

I checked under browser Settings/Text encoding and also Android keyboard settings, among other places - and not showing up properly.

I switched SD card & NAND restore to a different GB ROM (CM7-V9 recently released by CS) and everything is working on it, although I preferred Shed's ROM overall - so I'm puzzled & looking for a fix/reset ??

I do use the Eris's Google Translate for a quick thing or two while on the job - this isn't cool as terms are just showing up as boxes on screen now ....

If others are coming across this, perhaps we ought to post & link it back to GSB thread to see if Shed can look into this for a resolution ....
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zealofsoul:
FIXED IT!

DroidSansFallback.ttf file was missing in the files. I'm assuming it was an attempt to reduce the rom size.

Here is the steps I took to get the Asian fonts working again.

1. From previous releases of GSB, I looked into system/fonts folder and extracted DroidSansFallback.ttf.

2. I moved the DroidSansFallback.ttf file into my SD card.

3. Using Root Explorer, I copied the DroidSansFallback.ttf file and pasted into system/fonts folder of my Eris.

4. Reboot.

It was a lot logical than I expected to be. I guess I didn't have to bother workshed with PM (although he never replied...)

Use a file explorer that allows you to look at the System folder.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
Sounds good to me, I'm running CS's CM7-V9 GB and getting just as good battery life vs. Shed's GSB, and Camera has 9x zoom vs. 2x - GPS, wifi, SMS/MMS and other apps are working perfect - about as smooth as it can be - so I'm going to stick with CM7 for a while longer. Besides, ADW isn't a bad choice for me either as I can lock the desktop especially when I hand it off to show others on what this "litte" rooted Eris can do with GingerBread OS loaded.

Shed will probably release a newer update soon - given his track records on things - so when I switch back next time, I will retrieve it from my NAND-saved V3.3 or V3.4 versions sould the patch be needed.

Thanks for sharing your "find" :D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
Info-Update:

Arrrrh, I tried it - moved to SD, restore by copy/move back to /system/fonts folder with root, reboot & even reflashed the V3.5 ROM - not working on my device. Getting the "boxes" again in Translate, Maps & even in Browser - ??? Wondering if I missed something else?

Going to roll back to V3.4 since Shed indicated a newer release will be out shortly (or, going to switch again to CS's CM7-V9 by doing a NAND restore - poor Eris, getting flashes over & over again ....)

P.S. I've posted a link to this thread in the Deveoper's subforum for Shed since he's doing a ROM update soon, perhaps he will look into this & fix it.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zealofsoul:
Maybe you shoudlnt have reflashed 3.5 over. Just flash the font and walk away. Give it a try that way
[Focus General] xtian63:
I was wonderin if the sides and top part of the focus made of metal or plastic with a metalic finish
[Focus General] ru-dmitry:
They are plastic. But metallic finishing is high quality and does not tear off.
[Focus General] hx4700 Killer:
Its all plastic so don't try to "Buff" it like it is made of chrome or you will end up burning the plastic.
[Focus General] xtian63:
Casemate pop here i come hehe, id rather hide them than get them all scratvhed up
[Focus General] Funkadube:
I do not use a case at all and there are no scratches so far. This phone is way more durable than I expected...have dropped it like 6 times (hard too) and it's still working like the first day i got it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychedelecist:
My Desire seems to have bricked after flashing via custom ROM manager via the marketplace. I have HBOOT 0.75 and S-ON (not sure what that means). I initially flashed my rooted Desire (with an older custom ROM) with one called ''AuraxTSense_8.1.1_Official_OTA_2.2_FRF91, and it worked. When I subsequently tried to flash to Neophyte's latest stable ROM, when I rebooted the phone it would stay on the animated X logo.

I have an Orange branded phone, no original ROM backup. I want to get back to the Aurax ROM above. When I reach the boot menu, holding down and the power button, I can select RECOVERY, but then I get a red triangle.

I dont have access to another Desire at the moment.

How can I go about unbricking my phone? Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You're not bricked, you just haven't properly rooted your phone. Make you SD card a gold card, flash a stock RUU and then re-root using unrEVOked.

And NEVER touch ROM Manager again as it's just TERRIBLE
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychedelecist:
Here's the thing - I dotn have access to another Desire to make a goldcard ... and I cant flash a stock RUU as mine is a Orange Desire - and I cant find the ROM for it anywhere - it doesnt seem to exist!

Is there somethign else I can do to reroot?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychedelecist:
There's a chance that when I first rooted a year ago, that my SD card is a Gold card - no idea how to check, and what I need to do to keep it as a gold card (what shoudl I NOT do with it?)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k-c-0:
look

Maybe its a try.

Hope that helps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychedelecist:
I cant turn off check signature in my boot option - I have a very basic menu only.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You don't need a phone to make a gold card as it's the SD card you're making. Just use a card reader

There's no other way of doing it otherwise
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychedelecist:
I need the CID of a Desire phone- not sure if I need from froma Desire with an Orange contract. That's if my SD card isnt a gold card already. I think I need to flash via ADB from my desktop as my phone is inoperable? If so, win 7 x64 cannot detect my phone as an adb device. What do I do?

I like the fact that this should be in the i9000 section..

Is this a i9000, or a Captivate? If it's an i9000

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=748

The i9000 is not a captivate. It's a GalaxyS. The captivate is a type of GalaxyS, just like the i9000. They're different phones with different ROMs, with different kernels with different hardware with different drivers. They are GalaxyS's but a i9000 is NOT a captivate.
[Captivate General] studacris:
Adam...i believe he may have flashed I9000 gingerbread on his captivate. (perhaps a froyo I9000 firmware who the hell can tell at this point.) Notice he said auto rotation doesn't work, and he's asking for stock rogers firmware so it's definitely a cappy.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
yeah. he has a captivate, but has flashed an i9000 rom with i9000 kernel. he didnt read everything he was told to read, or he would have understood that he needed a reoriented kernel. he also wouldnt be making threads like this.

again one last time...FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS THREAD: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=979133

if you still cant figure it out take it back to that store show them that link and maybe all of you can figure this out together.
[Captivate General] watsa:
First, GT-I9000 is a cousin of captivate. Flashing GT-I9000 ROM is not a huge problem if you have proper kernel to support it. Infact all the GB roms in captivate dev section are derived from GT-I9000 ROM.

Second, why is that u dont want to ODIN back to eclair first if u really want to be on stock?

I think you need to calm down first and do a bit of study before doing anything crazy with ur phone

Edit: And i am guessing you have flashed GB bootloaders so to get into recovery try Power + Volume UP
[Captivate General] AdamOutler:
I don't know where to get the Rogers firmware, but if you want a captivate 2.2 ROM...

Here.... http://files.teamkomin.com/Andromeda/Tools/Andromeda3-HeimdallPackage.zip

Use the Andromeda3 heimdall package. Its simple enough to figure out and everything you need is included. Just put your phone into download mode and flash it.

edit: if you have flashed 2.3 bootloaders, you are on your own. I will not recommend flashing bootloaders. You will need to find a 2.2 bootloader for your phone.
[Captivate General] Rjpover81:
Thanks for the link,odin makes sense to me now so i understand the multiple files needed,we (me and the guy who owns the mobile solutions store tried for 4 hours to boot into recovery and dl mode,followed connexion 2005 3 finger fix to a tee,got the file onto phone,cannot root either because apparently phone thinks its a i9000,we tried old one click root and when it puts phone into recovery mode power button will not allow selection also re-inst packages opt is not there,maybe next a jig? thinking of grabbing 3 100k ohm resistors and trying that method im all out here..am i stuck with a 500$ paper weight or what???

I realy need to know whether there is any external (detachable) camera that can be used with my motorola milestone which can be used for video calling or video chat.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] wgoeken:
As far as I'm aware, the answer is "no". You won't find devices that you can plug into the phone's USB port to add functionality, because the device does not support USB Host Mode.
[General Accessories] montymintypie:
Hi all,

After many frustrations trying to play emulators on my Galaxy S, I've decided that I want a real controller. I have some NES/PS1 controllers laying about, and I came up with a brilliant idea!

Buy cheap bluetooth keyboard from eBay

Hardwire each PS1 button to keys on the keyboard

Stick the bluetooth circuit board inside the PS1 controller

End up with a wireless PS1 controller for all my emulators that support key remapping

I've got 3 questions though:

Do the cheap keyboards have any ghosting issues? i.e. if I hold down heaps of buttons on the controller, will some keys not be detected?

Is this the best/cheapest solution? The keyboard I'm looking at is very cheap, so I'd need a pretty amazing product to persuade me otherwise.

Is there a way to hook up a joystick via bluetooth? I've got a broken dualshock controller that would be perfect for this.

Thanks in advance!
[General Accessories] Blagus:
Yeah, that should be possible. And ghosting might be a problem, but to solve that, simply test keyboard on PC to minimize conflicts (i.e. to avoid conflicts between D-Pad and X button).
[General Accessories] montymintypie:
Thanks for the quick response :) I think I'll go ahead and buy the cheap one, then document my results to avoid future mishaps for others

I might also map one of the keys to a number, as I think you need a passphrase for it to connect properly.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Phateless:
I've been cruising around this forum for a couple hours and I see roms to flash via ODIN and deodexed and rooted stock, but no plain-jane out of the box ODIN.

Am I missing something? In the Captivate forum it was easy to find.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rickyc19:
ODIN isnt a rom its simply a program/tool used to flash kernels, I recommend you use whitwhawxk's stock kd1 but it is rooted and deodexed (which are good things anyway)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Phateless:
Don't worry I do know that, lol. Not a complete noob. :)

I'm more concerned with UNROOTING to out of the box state for warranty or resale scenarios or to update via kies mini.

In the Captivate forum the plain Jane Odin was easy to find.

Thanks for your response.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Phateless:
So is that the official unroot method so far? Flash the rooted stock and use SOC to unroot?

Will that result in a perfect out of the box state?

Also haven't been able to find kies on the samsung website. Do I have to register before they'll let me download it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] de1packers:
That's exactly what will happen..especially because the ota was kd1 recently so its official..

Ok cool, thanks, just wanted to make sure.

What about kies? Couldn't find download link on samsung site. I want the official version.
