Wow. I've import just flashed ke7 yesterday and didn't notice if that's what changed it, but on my stock s2 the fourth button there had something to do with network data mode.

Either way thanks alot for pointing that out! I'll ber using it until (if) somebody works out how to do the mod with the volume rocker. =)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] yamanote:
If you can get that stock toggle to do that I'm sure you can get the volume rockers to do the same ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
Hey guys, I've made an app that emulates the old rocker functionality, it's a bit hacky so I made a 36 hour trial so you can make sure it works properly.

Advanced ringer rocker (trial)

Advanced ringer rocker
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] yamanote:
Thanks for creating that app.

It works fine on vr1.1, but three glitches I can see:

1)

Going from volume to vibe works fine, but when going into silent mode it looks like there's another screen which overlaps the vibration screen.

Look at the image if you don't understand.

2) minor annoyance- the stock pop-up says 'Ringer volume' while the app's version says 'Ringer Volume'.

3) When going from sound to vibe it vibrates once for ~1 second, but when going from silent to vibration mode there are two short pulses.

If you can fix it and make it feel more stock then i'll buy it for sure :)

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
Because of the Android API limitations, this is unfortunately the only way I can make it work. It's not possible to disable the standard volume popup screen, so I just overlap my own.

The screen behind it (standard system popup) will be displaying an incorrect icon when you change from vibrate to silent or silent to vibrate, so I display the correct one over the top.

It looks slightly too low on your screenshot, I'm not sure what's causing that, it doesn't do that on my device (ZTE blade) or the emulator so I presume it's due to a different UI theme (?) Although that shouldn't cause it to misalign.

Thanks, I missed that

Will look into that

edit: Can't reproduce that. Can you try disabling advanced ringer rocker, then go into the android settings menu/sounds and switch between vibrate and normal mode (click the Silent Mode checkbox) and tell me if your phone vibrates

Do you mean the background colour? Is it different to your regular one?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] maedox:
Apps like Tasker or Timeriffic don't show any volume popups when they change the volume levels. Tasker even has an option if you want to show the volume popup, so I am sure it's possible, but it doesn't matter one bit. I'll test it out, because this seems all good to me. Thanks. :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] yamanote:
The ROM I'm on doesn't have a theme, its the stock Samsung look. And yeah I understand why you can only make it overlap- the issue I was describing was how the overlapped box was slightly lower than the normal pop-up ;)

Just curious- would it be possible to disable the stock popup if I have root?

If I have vibration set to only in silent mode or always [on] then yes toggling between silent (vibe) and ringer does initiate one ~1 sec vibration.

Nah I just meant 'fix the above glitches and I'll buy it' :)

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
Thanks for the great feedback.

Because I can't directly detect volume button key-presses (can only do that if you are the currently active activity) I basically listen for volume changes and calculate when to enter silent mode. Android responds to your key-presses as it usually does by displaying the (now incorrect) ringer mode popup since it's unaware of my app running around behind it changing the ringer mode.

With root you can pretty much do anything, so yes I would say that is entirely possible but I'm not sure how.

I can't think why the overlay isn't exactly aligned on your device, I've tried something that may help but if it hasn't fixed it then sadly I don't know what will.

I've fixed the typo, fixed the double vibrate. It's now an option under menu/advanced options, you'll need to disable it. It seems some devices vibrate and some don't (Gingerbread change?).

Also added a different style, stock/dark gingerbread which it will default to on 2.3.

I don't think it's going to be possible to make this work 100% on all devices, so I've dropped the price to $0.99

If you need more time to test these changes on the trial version then PM me your UUID (reinstall the app or clear data, then start it up without an internet connection and it will show your UUID)

The updated version unfortunately doesn't fix the misalignment :( Will probably flash an updated version of my current ROM or flash another ROM when I'm free so yeah maybe that'll fix it. Thanks for the attempt though.

Yep can confirm that the typo and double vibe have been fixed (the latter after disabling the checkbox).

Just a heads-up for others- if you've got the stock Samsung theme on then you'll want to switch to the Froyo style.

Price drop is always a nice incentive to purchase, hah :)

PM'd you my UUID, thanks.

Will test it a bit more and will most likely purchase it after I get Google Checkout sorted out- probably tomorrow (it's 5am here and i'm tired lol)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Forseti_Jan:
You might want to look into using Widgetlocker. Next to the fact is freaking awesome on itself it also offers the silent option ;)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexTheStampede:
Here is my current issue, is it possible to set manually the apn used for the hotspot? Using a tethering app won't do it as then it would be an adhoc connection, and those are disliked by most gadget.

Btw, the whole problem is that the apn Android uses for hotspot is different from the one I set for 3G connectivity, and that's quite expensive...

Hey guys, I'm running bamf 1.7 themed on my wife's phone and all her crap is in vzw backup assistant but I'm unable to get it to work. I found a zip of backup assistant in one of the rom threads but when I run it in either rom manager or straight from clockwork it doesn't come up in my application tray. I just want to get her contacts back... Does anyone have any ideas on how to best do so? Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehotboy:
if you can't find a solution just go into her vzw account on the website, highlight messages and select contacts and the backup asst comes on ..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubliminalME:
Nice. Thanks for the reply. I actually registered her and logged her in then exported the contacts to csv then imported them into her google acct. I think she's good to go!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehotboy:
no problem, how did you export her contacts ? im trying to do the same .. im done with vzw backup asst

nvm i found it :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ERIFNOMI:
You guys have gmail right? Just keep your contacts synced to that.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubliminalME:
Yeah, long story short:

My wife's phone has been FC'ing a lot of stuff lately and she got tired of it. She told me that I could root her phone, so I did so, put BAMF 1.7 with the Android Cutie theme on it and went to replace all her shiz.

Well, turns out she had not really updated/cleaned her Google Contacts, and so when I redid her phone, her Google contacts came up, but none of her added in phone #s.

Well, Registered her online with Vzw and then exported her contacts to a csv then imported them into Google and she should be good for the hereafter.

She really likes the Rom, too, which is nice. ;)

SIM UNLOCK - Desire HD on 2.3.3

Hello everyone

I am new to this XDA-DEVELOPERS forum hence don't know whether posting comment over here is correct or not. [Advice in case]

I am having HTC Desire HD on 2.3.3 which is SIM LOCKED on Softbank. I wish to know if there is any method to UNLOCK the phone without downgrading to Froyo [Android 2.2]

If anyone knows a good link on this site, please let me know.

There might be relative posts on this site i.e. SIM UNLOCK Desire HD on 2.3.3 but being new to this site, I don't want to create a new thread unnecessary.

Please try and understand.

Hope to have a reply from someone on this site/forum. Thanks in advance!!!

Well it depends on your router. I cannot exactly tell you as your router software will be different than mine. Just enter into router settings, hope you will know how to? Look for wifi section, and mac filter, you will have to add your phones wifi mac address, its unique to phone. Menu> status> about phone> wifi. Tour wifi should be on. Then try rebooting the modem.

I have a question and you may find it silly but that's okay, I have my reasons. If I take my Rogers I896 Captivate from stock 2.2 rooted froyo and put it on GB 2.3.3 from the I-9000, Instead of having the GB launcher can I go back to touchwiz from Froyo? Because I love the dock and the launcher, very smooth.:D And if I go to 2.3.3 is there any chance I can go back to 2.2? I keep hearing everywhere that I will brick if I do.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Yeah you can go back, but you have to be careful because your flashing bootloaders.. A lot of the bricks from 2.3.3 back to 2.2 is user error.

Why do you want to put a i9000 ROM on your phone. Captivate has a ton of gingerbread ROMs...?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepherian:
The stock 2.3.3 uses the "same" launcher as 2.2 its just TW4 instead of TW3

you can go back to 2.2 you just have to be careful that you dont flash new bootloaders

Hi guys

I am thinking about upgrading from my 3 months old dhd to s2. What do you think? Any advice on the general usability of the touchwiz ? HTC sense is pretty slick and great but I am disappointed with the display that pretty much sucks.

I saw a couple of videos in YouTube and I could see that the home screen takes some time to appear after we press the home button. Are you guys experiencing something like that. I cannot live with such a phone no matter how fast it's processor is

Please advice

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamanote:
When you press home, there's a slight delay to let you push the home button again (to activate Voice Talk) if you want to. I'm sure someone'll come out with a mod that lets you toggle VT on/off sooner or later. Flashing a (not yet existent) non-TW based rom'll do it too. It's not a physical/hardware limitation or anything if that's what you're wondering.

Actually if you can't live with a phone that takes ~0.5 seconds longer to go home... well I really don't know what to say.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolutiontheory:
:-) that's because home button is the button which I press the most.

No point in the phone being snappier when the button that you press the most is not snappy at all!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamanote:
Really? Since the device takes ~0.5 more seconds to go home, there's no point in having a quick phone?

Personally, hitting the home button and watching the animation isn't all I do on my phone.

I usually browse the web/play games/listen to music/watch videos etc on my phone and the extra 0.5 seconds to go home doesn't bother me.

Each to their own I guess.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolutiontheory:
Hmm think this is a matter of personal preference. But good to know that this lag is only for home screen.

If your phone doesn’t boot into download mode and you have a black screen after flashing froyo heres how you unbrick it, it worked for me.

Step 1 – Prepare odin with the firmware u want to flash and get it ready to go;

Step 2 – Remove battery, SIM and SD card, next connect your galaxy to the computer;

Step 3 – Hold Volume down + Power + Home button at the same time;

Step 4 – Insert the battery and wait a bit;

Step 5 – At this point Odin should have detected your galaxy ( Yellow rectangle should appear in your odin );

Step 6 – Click Start button in Odin and wait about 5 min.

If all goes well it should come back to life.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mathijs727:
Maybe some1 can hardbrick his/her phone so we can test it ;)

I don't think this works when your bootloader is damaged.

That's the one that makes you boot into download-mode when you hold the 3-btn combo.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Shanakin:
This works because it wasn't actually a hard brick (in that the bootloaders are damaged) and step 5 proves this (Odin would find nothing to communicate with). It's not common, but having download mode and recovery not work at first does happen at times.

Which is why the first recommendation someone who reports a bricked phone without download mode is to remove the battery for a period of time before replacing it and trying it again, which often fixes it in such cases.

I believe the act of removing the battery in your steps likely did the same thing with the rest being largely unnecessary/placebo.

Anyway, while it's stuck at "Setup Connection", take the battery and unplug the USB-cable. Don't touch at Odin, leave it at "Setup Connection". Now insert the battery back and go to download mode, then plug the USB-cable.
