I am looking for an app which notifies when I receive message, a call. It must also have facility to make calls and send messages. I looked around and I found an app called Vlingo. Doesn't work well as I thought. I want it to work even when screen is locked. I want to communicate using a bluetooth headset and I want it to work without any internet connection. Anyone uses one ?
[HTC Desire S] Valwit:
and what do you need an app for? doesn't the phone do it by it self? and i mean like: any phone with a BT headset, in the let's say past 10 years? it gives you a ring or vibration when a call or message arrives, mo matter if screen or keyboard locked or not, and if a headset is connected - you can use it. without internet connection.
[HTC Desire S] prince87:
Sure we may be able to receive calls. But what I want is for it to read the sms or make calls. I can use it, for instance, when I m riding my motorbike.

Is there a such thing as "codec packs" for use with media players on Android platform devices or even a 3rd party player that has a larger format capability? (I did STFA with no luck, yes saw the Dvix player and yes I am a noob when it comes to Android devices, so a little patience please)?

I have an LG P999 (G2x) and the wife has a Samsung Galaxy 4Gs which were rooted in the first two weeks of ownership (both are simple rooted, deoxed Froyo OS set-ups, nothing special --yet), Yes the G2x has some quirks/issues but on the most part I am very pleased with the device. Neither my wife's or my phones wants to recognize or play certain file extensions (I.E. - .flv, .mpeg, - etc.) it does seem to play .WMA and .MP4 files ok , is there any add ins, codec packs, etc. that will expand the formats that can be played?

Thanks in advance for any help on this subject

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obartuckc:
I was wondering if someone could please help explain to me how to go about resizing my desktop icons? I've downloaded some GO themes that include larger icons and are easy to replace--the icons were big enough to cover the icon label text. I don't have the experience to mess with rooting, and would like to have the "cubed icons" I found big enough as well, but when I insert them using Astro file manager, they're small and don't cover the icon labels. I am new to Android and am using GO Launcher EX. I have known for a couple of years that the best work and insight comes from XDA. Thanks.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obartuckc:
So for anyone who might be looking for this same thing, Desktop Visualizer is the best option I've found. It can take a little time to go through all of the icons and set them up, but ultimately it will give you the ability to size icons and route them to whatever shortcut/app you'd like. You could even get rid of app labals as well, if you wanted to. Here's what I was able to do.

I came across this game in the market and its so much fun I thought I'd bring it to everyone's attention. I am not affiliated with the game or the developer in any way. This thread is to share tips, tricks, upgrades and tunes for vehicles (if you choose) or just general info. Below is a description, see you on the track!

The most addictive drag racing game with realistic controls and 40+ cars!

The most addictive drag racing game with realistic controls, updated regularly with new features, adding 100k new players every day!

- Drive 40+ cars from Integra to Evo to Veyron SS

- Buy performance upgrades and tune your car

- Challenge other racers online!

WANT MORE? See "coming soon" section below. We're working on more cool stuff 24/7!

HAVE QUESTIONS? See our website link below for Drag Racing FAQ.

PROBLEMS SHIFTING after last update? Settings -> Multitouch -> ON

*** TIPS:

1. Racing

- Blue/green lights on dashboard will help you launch and shift at the right time

- If there is too much wheelspin, you are not going anywhere

- Once you learn how to drive properly, ignore the lights and find your own winning strategy

- Nitrous is more effective on underpowered cars with lots of grip. Timing is crucial!

2. Cars and upgrades

- Test drive before you buy a car!

- The more your car costs, the tougher opposition you'll face both offline and online

- Upgrades count towards increasing car cost/level, while tuning doesn't

- Keep your car cost just under your level cap to get an advantage

- Adjusting gear ratios (Garage -> Upgrade -> Tune) is costly, but lets you achieve times that are impossible on stock settings

3. Game modes and winnings

- Race against beginner/amateur AI to get some quick cash and build your car

- Defeat bosses and unlock achievements for extra RP

- Go online and race against others to earn maximum cash/RP

- If your car isn't ready for online races, earn some cash in "Drivers Battle"

- For the ultimate challenge, race against top players in Pro League

4. Misc

- Join facebook.com/DragRacingGame for news and strategy

- Try playing with vibration on (enable it in the "Settings" menu)!

*** COMING SOON:

- New cars! (...and bikes at some point, but shhhhh :)

- More car customization

- Friend races (next week)

- More game modes, ratings and leaderboards

- If Pro League isn't working for you, contact support - we'll work with you to resolve the issue.

I don't see it in the market nor did you link to anything... sounds fun.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bronk93:
I added market link at the bottom of the OP, my bad. Also if you just type "drag" in the market search it will come up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ajm_:
This is one of my most favorite games in the market. Is there anyway you could post some tips about what settings you should modify in the tuning section. I've raced people who have modified their timing it makes the vehicle go some much faster. For those who cant find it, its under dragracing one word I believe but the op is right this game is awesome.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bronk93:
Level 2 S2000 1/4 specs

Upgrades:

Engine - 1

Turbo - 1

NO2 - 3

Cold Air - 1

Weight - 5

Tires - 5

Tune Spec:

Nitrous - 4.25s @ 71%

Final - 3.812

1st - 4.000

2nd - 3.170

3rd - 1.850

4th - 1.550

5th - 1.300

6th - 1.090

7th - none

Tips:

Go into settings of the game and make sure multi touch is on. To ensure a perfect start hold finger on the gas icon then, without lifting your finger off the screen slide it to the shifter. When the flag drops you will automatically shift into 2nd. Hit the shift button to shift into 3rd AND the nitrous button at the same time then try to perfect shift through the rest of the gears.

If this helps let me know!

[Q] docking station interferes with flash playback in Opera

I noticed recently that from time to time opera has a little wobble and wont play flash content.

But I finally narrowed it down by accident just now.

I was watching something on the BBC Iplayer and went to put the tablet down so I docked it.

Opera seemed to restart and the the same page was displayed as before but this time it said sorry no go you need flash, so I undocked and and the browser restarted again but this time the programme appears. This is repeatable.

Now I am on a VERY steep Learning curve with this tablet and Android in general but I have beeen trying to learn as much as possible about the tab.

Has anyone any ideas what could be causing this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
Samsung said all along they wouldn't have enough Exynos chips for worldwide distribution but nobody expected an alternate to be used in the U.S. Interesting choice.

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2011/07/06/att-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-coming-with-tegra-2-cpu-not-exynos/

Edit: All the online rags picked up the SGSZ getting FCC approval as meaning it was supposed to be AT&T's SGS2. Turns out that's not true so I changed the title of this post from its original "AT&T SGS2 to use 1Ghz Tegra 2."
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
i don't see how this proves a Tegra chipset over the other???

It just shows the i903 model with AT&T bands... but this doesn't mean anything about what chip it has.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see a Tegra based Super Amoled Plus phone... I just don't see it here other then speculation. It would be perfect if it has quadband HSPA for Tmobile and AT&T.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
The Attain (AT&T's SGS2) is late and the Tegra SGS2 was just pushed through the FCC with model codes that map to the AT&T version of the SGS1. It could fall apart but it kind of makes sense with the shortage of Exynos chips and Tegra being cheaper lowering AT&T's costs.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I would rather have the more powerful Exynos. Its running a manufacture UI and is still as fast as the G2X running stock Android. Most bench marks also tell me the Exynos is the better chip. I also hope that even thou there changing the chip, it still keeps hardware accelerated browsing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] peacekeeper05:
Im sure they will. cause even the old galaxy tab 7 inch already has hardware accelerated browser after the 2.3 Update.

Of the Galaxy Z, which is this phone that you all seem to think is an SGS II.

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9103_galaxy_z-review-614.php
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
The Exynos has a faster CPU but a weaker dual core GPU

The Tegra 2 has a weaker CPU but a more powerful quad core GPU.

In reality, you probably won't see the performance differences as much as games stuttering. It does do some things well, like accelerated browsing and flash playback. But these things can be duplicated and probably will. It's like Benchmarking Quake 3 on newer ATI and Nvidia cards... sure one may be 15 fps faster, but when your running something at 400+ fps what does it matter? Both CPU/GPU combos are quick. My Nexus One ran Android great.

The reason why I went Tegra 2 are for 2 reasons:

1. All of the tablets coming out are Tegra 2's. So if the next version of Android (Ice Cream) comes out, Google will make sure Tegra's are sitting pretty. With Ice Cream allowing GPU OS components, it will be harder to make sure all the apps work with off the wall side processors and graphics processors.... Maybe everything will just work. I dunno but my logic is that the more tegra devices the more support you'd get.

2. Android is fragmented. Tegra is trying to solve that. They aren't trying to sell a new phones with 1000 different processors and GPU combinations. They are trying to stabilize and pump up the development community. For that I give my support. If Tegra's can become the mainstream GPU for Android, then imagine all the games and apps we'd have.

Would you guys stay on TMO or switch to ATT? Because you'll only get 2G speeds if you use the Euro or ATT GS2 on TMO's network.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kirdroid:
Couldn't wait for tmo sgs2, jumped ship from tmobile/g2x to att and got the euro sgs2. One advantage is att doesn't recognize the sgs2 imei and we can use the $15 unlimited data for non smart phones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
At least this confirms my decision to pick up the G2x in regards to the Sensation or the US SGS2.

The Sensation was slowest right out of the gate and didn't offer anything impressive enough to pick. The toughest choice was between the G2x and SGS2, Tegra vs Super Amoled Plus.

Now if the Tmo SGS2 has a Super Amoled Plus screen and Tegra 2, I'd use my upgrade for that. But when it finally releases we'll probably be hearing a lot about Tegra 3 phones and Ice Cream.

I might just sit on my G2x for a while and wait it out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
My bad. I started this thread after reading all the U.S. online rags saying the AT&T SGS2 was going to be Tegra. They all ran stories after the "i9103" (the SGS2 is i9100) got FCC approval. Like someone said above, the Tegra phone, i9103, is the SGSZ and the one GSM Arena reviewed. So having been approved by the FCC it might be coming to some North American carrier but it's definitely not going to be AT&T's SGS2.

The SGS2's 2.3.4 update got leaked a couple of days ago and in it a dev found code for AT&T LTE as well as their custom 4G icons for the notification bar. So, based on that, I'd

guess

they're getting the original SGS2 and it's probably going to be their first LTE phone. They're launching LTE in Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Atlanta and Chicago this Summer so I'd

guess

it'll launch in the next two months.

Sorry I didn't correct this thread earlier, I forgot I posted it here.

I got like three scratches on my screen yesterday and I have no idea why. I never ever have put it screen down. I am 100% sure nothing was in my pocket including any dirt OR sand. I guess there MAY be a very faint chance that my keys were in the same pocket for a second but I truly don't think so. I am extra anal about this thing, laughably so. I buff it, I take my pocket inside out and smack it around, I make sure the screen is facing out in my pocket. So I'm usually very conscious of which pocket my keys are in. I hate scratches and do everything in my power to prevent them.

All that said, anyone else in my boat? Got a scratch you can't explain? My whole point here is that if this is really Gorilla Glass, I shouldn't have any scratches let alone THREE! Certainly not from keys. I'm really bummed about this. The fact that I don't know why makes it worse LOL. I'm gonna see if ghost armor will hide it I guess.

So if anyone is listening, get a screen protector. I'm regretting not getting one big time :(

Just noticed a very small scratch on mine tonight. I thought it was dust under the screen but you can definitely feel it when you run a finger nail across it. No idea how it got there. It's either in my hands or in a microfiber lined leather pouch. Time for a screen protector.
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
I've got a hairline scratch on mine that can only be seen under strong halogen lights or fluorescent lights, under normal lights or daylight it just isn't there, so maybe people have more scratches than they realise.

The annoying thing was, it scratched by my wiping the fingerprints off with a microfibre cloth. I was cleaning it under the halogen light so saw it happen. Must have been a speck of dirt or something on the cloth.

At least it doesn't show up 99% of the time so I'm not too bothered about it

So what's the best way of wiping off those fingerprints, if microfibre cloths can actually scratch it?
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
Let me quote my comment from the previous thread about gorrila glass screens...

"I just love how people on this board are so utterly misinformed. The problem is people believe it is indestructible. You can and will scratch your gorilla screen if you don't properly protect it. Anyone who believes otherwise deserves to have their **** scratched."

Harsh I know, but some people really do think gorilla glass can't be scratched.

...would that be safe? If not why not?

For example, if I set factory settings, removed SIM and MicroSD, then flashed it, would it work?

Currently running JPN which had the boot loaders removed.

ta, B
[Galaxy 3 General] pflorin:
why do you feel the need to flash with bootloader files/??

flash without to reduce bricking percentage
[Galaxy 3 General] BuboBriff:
Isn't the bootloader in a way like a PC bios? initialising / updating the hardware before the software boots? I'm just thinking it will include the "latest updates"

?
[Galaxy 3 General] ka'cipeder:
It may include updates, but if flashing fails for some reason you will have a nice paperweight instead of a phone. I flashed with bootloader a couple of times and nothing went wrong but its not the bootloader that will make the flashing process go wrong, its just that if something happens you will brick your phone.
[Galaxy 3 General] BuboBriff:
ah ok cool - all very vague "if something goes wrong" :) so if as a result of doing it all "perfectly" and leaving the boot files inside the tar, it DOES brick, there is no way back from that point?
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
There some stuff floating around that might work, but it's definitely not something to rely on.

It doesn't really pay to flash the bootloader, there's nothing much there, however if something goes wrong with you are pretty much F-ed.

Just flash without the bootloader, there is no reason to flash with it (unless you already flashed with a bootloader for the wrong version i5800 vs i5801 and you want to fix that)
[Galaxy 3 General] BuboBriff:
Hi SD, is there anything scientific anywhere about what a bootloader does exactly and why they shouldn't be used here for example?

All very wooly to me so far :)
