Give Multi Picture Live Wallpaper a try, free in the market. Has worked 100% for me.

[Nook Color General] eozoon:
Install QuickPic (free) and set wallpaper with it. It'll keep the image nice and sharp.

example: http://k.min.us/ib6DuE.png

It's also a great image viewer, faster than the gallery and easy to exclude certain folders.
[Nook Color General] arich57:
Agree with previous post. Greaet app.
[Nook Color General] quepaso:
Quickpic does a good job for Portrait wallpapers but fails badly at Landscape. Ive tried everything possible on the nook for a locked landscape setup and the best result ive had was gathering a ton of pictures, slapping them into a folder, then selecting that folder inside a app called Wall Switch from the market, and just keep switching till a razor sharp one shows up.

I know its not a proper method, but after a while, at least one of them shows up super sharp and high-res and looks amazing. Wish i could be more precise, but thats all i got.
[Nook Color General] Sm!th:
I love what you did

Eozoon, I wish you had posted how you arranged such a nice looking layout. Does anyone know what he used? I would love to know.

*EDIT* I found out where the battery and disk widgets come from, if I find out anymore I'll update my post.

Calendar widget

CPU widget

Folder icons

Battery % widget => Mini Info

disk usage widget => Mini Info

Toggle widget

Launcher/theme
[Nook Color General] J515OP:
I forgot what the clock is might just be beautiful widgets. Sorry I used to know but this ins't much help.

The cpu widget is SetCPU.

Not sure about the others.
[Nook Color General] eozoon:
Calendar widget - I assume you mean the clock? That's Simi Clock, I also use Simple Calendar Widget for the actual calendar in an other homescreen.

CPU widget - SetCPU

Folder icons - Simi Folder

Battery % widget => Mini Info

disk usage widget => Mini Info

Toggle widget - Widgetsoid

Launcher/theme - ADW, default theme, I think. Wallpaper from Wallbase.

Thanks for the info. Now I can get mine looking spiffy.

[G2 and Desire Z General] misfit61871:
So I'm just wondering.....my phone is rooted already and I don't remember the method I used. Would I damage anything if I rerooted using the free method mentioned in this forum?

Just so I can have it done the gfree way
[G2 and Desire Z General] Athrun88:
If you know its perm-rooted already, why try to root again? If its a custom rom, its most likely pre-rooted for you anyways. Only stock roms really need to be rooted so that you can load up a custom recovery and rom.

That being said, rerooting is like turning on a light. If the light is already on (root) then there's no harm in trying to turn it on again.
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
Not sure why you would want to re-root if you're already rooted. Are you having issues or something?

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
So I want to star using a landscape soft keyboard for a bit, as I may be in the early stages of carpal tunnel syndrome. I want to use swype to avoid tapping.is this possible? It looks like sammy locked us out of landscape mode, ignoring that some pripley might enjoy it once in a while.

Edit: I just tried slideIT, and it looks like that may be unable to go into its normal landscape mode as well. Why does samsung insist on locking people out of the native soft keyboard just because we have hard keys? They did it on the epic as well, but my old lg ally still used the soft key in landscape If I didnt open the phone.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
Yes, this was disabled by samsung, and therefore would need a very extensive mod/customized rom to have that possibility added. So, to answer your question, no, we can't do that.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
WOW thats stupid.*adds to list of reasons to never buy a samsung phone again*
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
that list is gonna be so big it'll crash your hard drive.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Dripz167:
That really sucks, you would think that they would enable it for people like Falkner, (Sorry for your condition) or for easy access, because not everybody like to slide the screen up for something simple... or put it in portrait for the matter.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] jahnbodah:
I found out that GoKeyboard will work in landscape.

However, when I used it it kept trying to auto-correct into chinese or something... anyways, give it a try.

also, GoLauncher is AMAZING with smooth maximus rom
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
I'm rooted, would smooth maximus allow me to use landscape soft keyboards? Also, I just had a thought and went into the system directory, and under system/usr, I found folders labeled keychars and keylayout, with .bin and .kl files inthem with names like qwerty, keypad, touchkey, and so on. Is it possible that modding one of those files could unlock the landscape keyboard?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
Landscape soft keyboards were disabled by Samsung by not building them into the firmware, rather than by the rom. We would need to mod the entire firmware, much more in-depth than anything we have currently to be able to have a landscape soft keyboard.
[HTC Incredible S] LexLFA:
Hi all,

Recently got the Incredible S and have noticed that the default orientation for Landscape Apps is for the capacitive touch screens to be on the right.

This is okay until I want to plug in earphones. The fact that the earphones are at the bottom left where my left hand is to hold the phone is very annoying.

Is there any way to change this so games etc. load so their landscape orientation is with the capacitive buttons are on the left (and as a result earphones are sticking out at the top right)?

I'm running CM7.1RC1 if that makes any difference.

Cheers

[Xoom General] fwempa:
I just bought a Xoom tablet and so far love it. I also own an Inspire 4G which is rooted and has many apps installed. I noticed soon after first sync that the apps from my phone are now on my tablet. I assume they are they apps listed in the Market which is ok except that it seems that they are "small screen" versions if there is such a thing. Is there a way to block or stop syncing to certain devices while allowing others? Am I clear whith this question? Do large format apps exist? Will the market auto download the correct version of the app depending on the device?

Just started to get up to speed with Android on my inspire, now comes another learning curve!!!!

Thanks in advance.
[Xoom General] farmsatguy:
For most apps, there is only one version which the author can update to include our tablet (16:10) format. It's not that "small" versions are being downloaded, it's just that the version doesn't yet take full advantage of the extra screen size on our tablets. It's worth searching though, because some apps may have a larger (or tablet-specific) version abailable. Or, you may find another developer has a similar app optimized for the tablet. But, for the most part, the apps come in one flavor and as the author has time (or need), they can/will update the app for Honeycomb support.

Hope this helps to answer at least part of your question...not sure about stopping the process once it has started. I know that the first time you setup your account on some android devices, they will start downloading any apps you have in your library. My Xoom didn't though... Probably because I canceled the initial setup purposely then did it manually later. Doing it manually will bypass the app download as I recall.
[Xoom General] fwempa:
As always... Great support on this community driven site!!! Thanks.

I suppose I will next look to perhaps rooting, although, as yet I see little need. Haven't noticed the bloatware that so burdened my Inspire4G.
[Xoom General] okantomi:
I think there is also a "compatibility" setting on the Xoom that you can uncheck...in Applications??? that will allow the apps to show full screen, though they may be jaggy. Search for it...it might work for some of your "Must Have" apps=win!

Also, the market should show you a tablet specific selection of apps.

Good luck.

Which do you prefer and why?? Whats the best settings to get the best performance out of each???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm503:
Personally, I really enjoy Launcherpro. It's free. Or paid if you want to re-size widgets or use their custom widgets (I suggest not, I didn't like those widgets) You really just have to try them out on your own. Launcherpro is very fast and smooth. Many transition effects. I really enjoy this launcher over the two you post about and others I have tried, and I've tried anyone you can think of. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xchompondizx:
+1 i agree. Launcher pro is the way to go, Fast , stable , customization , ect. :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadden:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conman123:
Im currently on myn 2.2 using launcherpro , and its stable , fast, and pretty ha. But how is the ADW Launcher?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mark_Hardware:
As always, I have to throw my vote in for Go Launcher. So many customizable features, I love it. One tip, don't put the transition effects on "random." That does seem to slow transitions down a bit.

I always run out of screen room, so I like being able to add as many screens as I want. Plus the additional bottom icons are sweet.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exgi:
ADW launcher VS. GO launcher EX (Droid x2)

I am going to have to cast my vote for Go Launcher EX.

I have tried both ADW and Launcherpro, but found Go Launcher EX to be far more customizable, and my phone seems alot more responsive. ADW seemed to make my phone lag, or feel alittle choppy, even FC at times.

Although all three have several features you can use to "make the phone your own", I think Go Launcher EX has them beat still. There is so much stuff out there for Go Launcher, it would take weeks to go through it all. True, most of it you may not need, but it tells you that the Dev's are very active.

Go launcher EX has kept me from getting bored with my Droid X2, by continuously putting new stuff out there for me to play with, so that being said, I would have to say, try Go Launcher EX!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM Civic EG8:
I'm voting for Adw launcher I love everything about it. I tried go launcher it was okay seemed kind of heavy.. And I don't like that there is no option for transparent status bar.

Sent From My Evo 4G Amped Up On Verizon Tower Power!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
ADW Ex ftw :)

Especially for customization, but it's really stable as well. Development is pretty consistent, even though I hate that they took out the two dockbars and only use the hidden one - or what used to be the hidden one.

Go Launcher Ex, as well as all Go apps, just seem... I don't know, clunky? I don't like them. They feel bloated and I don't like the way they look, some features are borderline cheesy and impractical.

However the best bet is to try both and make your own decision. If you don't want to pay for ADW Ex right away, try the free version or try Go Launcher first. If Go Launcher seems to be what you want then stick with it. Or if you like the free version of ADW, buy the pro version.

LauncherPro to me is out of the picture. The developer's lack of communication and unwillingness to help his users is one reason, but paying to resize widgets is dumb. The widgets that come with the paid LauncherPro have similar free counterparts on the Market (err, Play Store). Try out APW - Android Pro Widgets - if you want those type of widgets.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Go launcher ex with the go Widgets and a nice theme = pimpin you can make your phone look anyway you want, I have go launcher ex, adw ex, and launcher pro.plus and I always go back to GO, adw and lpp to me look unfinished and not as smooth like aosp vs sense, I love aosp but it.just looks unrefined to me I like that rounded glossy look of sense vs the more.boxy appearance of plain aosp, kinda like a '90 Lamborghini countach vs a '12 gallardo roadster ones boxy and clunky looking in the lines and ones sleek and sexy looking, and go has always been stable for me has lots of options and themes and can be set up to run very smoothly I've used it on an intercept(low end piece if crap) an evo (mid range spec wise these days) the epic touch(higher end spec wise) and a kindle fire running cm9 and it runs beautifully on all 4

Okay, here's the deal... When I run Quadrant Standard vs AnTuTu Benchmark my scores are always higher on the latter, usually about a 10% increase. Now since the update for AnTuTu that has changed to an increase of about 30%.

Now I know that some have expressed that the scores mean nothing, I on the other hand have noticed that as my scores have risen so has the performance of my device.

So, my question is can this be explained?

Thinkgeek recently reviewed a replacement wall plug that can supply up to 2.1 amps over a USB port.

Seems like a perfect fit for where you charge your nook color!

http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/travelpower/e81a/?pfm=Search&t=U-Socket USB Wallplug
[Nook Color Accessories] flu13:
In a similar vein, ThinkGeek also has this, which lets you draw USB power from an outlet that has something else plugged into it. Up to 1 amp.
[Nook Color Accessories] byronczimmer:
I'm wary of the 1 amp output, though that looks useful for when you're on the go or travelling.

The 2.1 amp permenant household solution means I can create a charging dock in my office with very little fuss.

http://fastmac.com/usocket.php

I got one of these for my birthday this January. Really works but I still think the NC charges faster directly from their dedicated wall plug.
[Nook Color Accessories] Phatdawg:
Yes, I'm not sure why but some people get 2 amp usb chargers that charge their nook at the same time as the stock charger.

However, my experience has been not the case.

The cable itself is known to be important, but the charger also has something about it that's unique or made differently to allow full 2 amp charging.

There are usb inter-connects that people sell that allow charging from lower amp chargers, I'm wondering if this bypasses whatever check that keeps the nook from charging at 2amps on a nonstock charger.
[HTC Sensation] jford04:
Hey guys

So Im trying to get my head around all the new '4G' to decide weather or not to buy this phone or wait for a 'true 4G' phone.

To my understanding, there are three new '4G' Protocols. HSPA+, WiMax and LTE.

Each of which operate of the standard frequency spectrum.

What is the HTC Sensation compatible with? From what I've gathered

HSPA+ - Yes

WiMax - No

LTE - Unsure

This phone was just announced on Monday exclusive to Telstra (Australia), Talked to the guys there but they had no idea.

If you could point in the right direction that'd be great

Cheers guys

[HTC Sensation] dellybelly:
If your not doing anything crazy over the web and a decent HSPA+ is available to you I wouldn't hesitate to get the current "4G" devices.

Verizon's LTE though is much more robust in my experience here in the Philly area, but you also don't have a Sensation on VZ.

Even still; with data caps (If you have them) it's gonna be a moot point. I mean I was taking down 2 gigs a month on 3G (with tether etc...).
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
hspa+..When i test it in our capitol city Ljubljana-Slovrnija it went up to 19 MB download speed..Slovenija is covered about 95% with hspa+.And couse i live out side this procents,i get only 3G,but im happy with this speeds too..Download up to 7,2 MB

Goodluck
[HTC Sensation] ciaphuas:
Verizon has the fastest 4g but the worst crop of smartphones
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Since no one has stated it yet: HSPA+ isn't really 4G. It's just marketed as that specifically for marketing. LTE & WiMax are actual 4G technologies.

That being said, right now they all run around the same speeds.
[HTC Sensation] yellowpony2k2:
Check the following article: http://www.itu.int/net/pressoffice/press_releases/2010/48.aspx

Before this, neither LTE & WiMax are actual 4G. Tmo uses this market HSPA+ as 4G, AT&T is now doing the same thing by marketing HSPA+ as 4G on their phones.
