[HTC Sensation] ROM_Guest:
Hello,

I am trying to draw notes on my android, like Windows Mobile did <with the stylus, finger, *and the ability to scroll down the page*.

So far I've tried:

-Note Everything

-Evernote

-Whiteboard Pro

These let you draw (i don't think evernote did), but not scroll down the page. ie: you get one screen only to write everything down. Not exactly great for a shopping list, or if you dont write small.

I also use Companionlink (and Dejaoffice, the android component of Companionlink), to sync my outlook Notes, Calender, Contacts, to my android. Companionlink's Notes component syncs all notes, but doesnt allow you to read/edit/create, drawn notes.

I don't want to use any cloud services for notes that Google might offer w/ its docs.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, thats nice and neat looking.

Still no scrolling though, or multiple notes.

Hey I've been havin some issues where people have a hard time hearing me when I'm talking...I'm cutting out as well and I've had 3 bars at the time of the incident, could it be my modem isn't very good? I flashed the ec05 but maybe reflash It or download a new file?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DannyMeercat:
I recently took my phone swimming. I took it apart and cleaned it completely with 95% isopropyl alcohol, making sure to remove any corrosion I found. Put everything back together and everything seemed to work fine except for the display. I have a blue tint with a kind of burned in image of my keyboard and notification bar. So I am assuming this display is pretty much dead.

I need some help finding a new one. I have found a couple on ebay for $120, but I can't afford that. So if any of you awesome people can help me find a screen plus the digitizer it would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
Okay I have the $7 sprint insurance and my phone fails to connect to the sprint network(unrooted and stock 2.1).

I went to the sprint store today and they said they fixed it because the PRL was outdated blah blah blah....and the pohne worked fine.... for 2 hours then it failed again.

I chatted with sprint about it and a rep told me to go to the sprint store to get a new hero(he first offered me a refurb instinct! because he did not have any refurbs for the hero).

So tomorrow I have to go to the store again to claim a new hero.... but I'm 99.9% sure I won't see it since its discontinued.

What phone should I ask for if the hero is not in stock? (I am not asking for an evo or evo 3d just the next comparable phone that replaced the hero)
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
definitely do not get the instinct worst phone ever lol. if anything try and squeeze the lg optimous s out of them, it was very similar to the hero accept it didn't have sense, if they don't have any heroes in stock that is.
[Hero CDMA General] aiwetir:
LG Optimus is very similar spec to the hero but better for some reason. Also has a real proximity sensor, still doesn't do flash. This would be a sidegrade though, you should shoot higher, sometimes the reps are good about that.
[Hero CDMA General] Riff76:
EVO 3D would be ideal but aim for a EVO Shift
[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
Instinct is a big NO WAYYYY!!! That phone almost had me give up my cell phone and get a landline again it was so bad. The Optimus is a decent phone. My son has one and he generally likes it, however it doesn't have a large developer following so your ability to stick with it for the duration of your contract could be problematic.....if your contract extends beyond the next 6 months or so.
[Hero CDMA General] user7618:
I would try for the optimus.

If his Hero is stock he'd probably be happy with an Optimus.....Agreed there. The Hero has been a lot more fun for me to tinker with though IMO.

[Hero CDMA General] aiwetir:
Doesn't AOSP have an Optimus?
[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
Last time I checked (about a month ago) Aosp was primarily for the Optimus V some reports were that it would run on the S but it was buggy as hell and required the hard buttons remapped.... There were only 2 roms at the time worthy of a daily driver (stock & 1 custom). There were ony a couple of custom kernel choices and very few tweaks. It's also quite cumbersome to root (had to follow like 5 seperate threads and the screen is totally blank for 3/4 of the process). Please don't get me wrong it's not a bad phone, but if you're used to all of the customization of the Hero (like me)....I personally find it somewhat dissapointing.

***EDIT*** To be fair and objective since I don't give my son's Optimus the same love & TLC as our other phones & Nooks. I just popped over to Android Central to have a fresh look around. It seems like the rooting proccess has improved substantially in the past month and there are a couple of flashable "Sprint fixes" for the Aosp rom. Also new since I last visited is a unofficial beta CM7.....For what it's worth.
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
I sat down and had a beer with an old friend last night, he told me he had a samsung moment and since they didnt have that phone in stock he got an epic 4g.

They offered him a keyocera android phone and he said he paid for a high end samsung phone when it came out...not a keyocera.

I played with the optimus at the store and I like it...my upgrade is in 2 months...if they're feeling nice and let me renew my contract I'll get an evo 3d.

But an optimus S will be fine :)

I only need two things...my dish network tv everywhere app and pandora...:D

Lol.... this is what they offered me directly from my sprint web transcript

I can offer you one out of below mentioned refurbished phones for free. The contract will not be renewed. Once your phone will be eligible for upgrade, you may upgrade:

LG Lotus(Refurbished)

SANYO SCP-3810 (Refurbished)

Samsung Reclaim(Refurbished)

SCP-2700 by Sanyo (Refurbished)

Samsung Instinct (Refurbished)

Right now im using the hero over wifi since the 3g radio fails to connect... if i get a new hero i will root it and flash ginger deck with gapps... the thing feels clunky as hell on stock 2.1

Right now the fastest battery friendly rom is ginger deck right? Any other roms worth trying?

[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
Well lets wait and see if I get the new phone on Friday. 99.9% guaranteed i'll get a refurb but meh its worth avoiding the $100 deductible from asurion.

Played with the optimus in the store again... the thing flies on stock 2.2.

Played with the evo shift and the slider feels firm compared tot he epic which feels cheap in the hand.

Going to use my upgrade towards the Galaxy S II or Motorola photon on september or whenever the phones are out :D

I haven't had really a single issue with cm nightly in months.
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
I want to flash roms so badly! but I must keep the phone stock in order to exchange it on friday!:mad:

I got dish network a few days ago with the slingloaded receiver... I'm now addicted to watching TV on my phone during work breaks!... during these past days I've realized how much I love my hero... can't live without it even if its not a flagship phone anymore. :cool:
[Hero CDMA General] aiwetir:
You could always flash a gsm radio and brick it as a send off. ;)
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
Hell no! the fat lady @ sprint would kill me and take away my new hero :(

Though it would be fun to have a brick :D

I laughed as she tried to boot into recovery pressing Menu + Home to try to see if I was rooted and void my warranty.
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
Just got the phone... it was a refurb hero from sprint (Items received... new HTC hero and new battery cover, they popped in my old battery)

Right now I rooted using regaw's auto rooter and it looks to be okay....installing the RomManager from market in order to flash to latest clockwork recovery before flashing my first rom... am I missing something?

Thinking of flashing CM7 or gingerdeck... can't decide yet!
[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
Try them both......just make a backup of your stock ROM first.

Sent from my.....click, click, boom
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
Just flashed AOSP...very nice UI...getting used to it but I can see great performance compared to the stock rom...I have a very complicated unlock pattern and I would constantly fail to unlock my phone on stock due to the lag...no more with this rom:D

I made a backup of the stock rom...I can't believe how easy it was to get everything done....took me like 15mins.

Any performance tweaks I can adjust in the rom to make it fly?

Sorry for asking too many questions but I feel like a kid on christmas morning :D
[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
You've just opened an addictive world of endless possibilities.....Here's a couple of suggestions to get you going. Under settings, check out CyanogenMod settings and click on performance. Now check out CPU settings....You can overclock to 768 MHz, however most phones can't run that fast, I can personally clock to 748, some people max out at 710. By default the rom boots at 691. You can slowly raise that until you find your phone gets unstable and locks up, then back it down (make sure you don't check "set on boot" until you know where your phones threshold is). In the performance settings you should also check the "use jit" box and set your VM Heap size at the max. Also check out "sd speed increase" in the market. It will change the read/write speed of your sd card and increase the performance of your photo gallery, and anything you have running from your sd card (best setting for that app I've found to be 2048). These are just a couple of things to get you going. PM me anytime if you want to try some more stuff.....themes, storage tweaks, bootanimations, bootsounds.........
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
I really appreciate your time into helping me out, you are one of the few around these forums helping people :D... everyone left when the 3D came out :/

I am leaving the cpu setting at default just to play it safe :), downloading that speed booster now and I did some of the tweaks you mentioned.
[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
Always glad to help even thought I too have moved on to the 3D. My son now has the Hero so I'll still be hanging around. In fact there's still a pretty good community here of people willing to help out. It's just gotten a bit slower to get responces in threads, but like I said, you can always pm me and if I don't have your answer I'll help you get it.
[Hero CDMA General] user7618:
Don't even mess with that vomit called 3D gallery. Get quickpic in the market. The gallery is useless if you have more than 5 pictures in it.

JIT is hit or miss, depends on your device. It never helped me any, so it was turned off. VM heap was at max, though.

Clock speeds is very dependent on device. I've seen phones that couldn't do more than 691, and some that could do quite a bit more. Mine started acting wiggy at 844, but was fine at 829.

[Hero CDMA General] Dudebowski:
What exactly makes the difference between devices that one may overclock more than another? are there different hardware builds of the same device?

Thx for the sd speed increase and gallery app suggestions, I'm always looking to improve performance (by far the main concern with this gen1 android)
[Hero CDMA General] gab2012:
Okay I'm gonna check out quickpic later, any other tweaks and apps you can recommend for this rom? I'm also looking for a keyboard app with bigger keys, though I can get used to the stock one.

Thinking of buying an 8gb class 10 microsdhc card...on sale for $15 at the officemax to increase space(obviously) and speed.

Thank you both for helping a newbie out :)
[Hero CDMA General] Dudebowski:
Universally beneficial: cachemate, appbrain app market, adfree(dev's don't like this one, but heroc's screen is tiny as it is...)

for Heroc: LED's hack, MSL reader (for doing PRL updates) my verdict is still out for 'Proximity Sensor' and then there's the improved camera:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=984279

also, consider getting a 16gb class10 from newegg for $25.

edit: forgot to mention Market Enabler to access apps locked to other carriers, and editing your /system/build.prop file so market thinks you have a better phone... because now you do.

Are they still giving the Hero? I remember when I had the Touch Pro they gave me the Touch Pro 2, are they still doing that?

Maybe they will do that when the Hero 4G comes out...
[Hero CDMA General] PMGRANDS:
The Best apps in my Opinion which Help me the Most are....

1.) SpareParts

2.) SetCpu

3.) AutoKiller Memory Optimizer

4.) CacheMate

5.) SD Speed Boost

6.) MemoryUp Pro

*Note* SpareParts Changes the Screen Animation to Fast which makes the phone feel a lot Faster!
[Hero CDMA General] Drunkpilot:
If you are looking to have more internal date space (room for more apps internally and not on sd card), you might want to try Firerat's Partition Mod in the development thread. Definitely do a lot of reading before you try it. I did it the 1st week that I rooted and although I had some issues, I learned a lot about my phone and the wonderful world of flashing.

For some reason when I try and tweak the read speeds on my phone, it causes a choppiness when watching videos. For most people though, it works well. Each phone is different for some reason.

As for GB Rom's, I have been liking jaybob's and have been using aosp.cm7+ for a long time. If you want to use a sense rom that really flies (but is still a work in progress and doesn't have bluetooth working yet) you might want to try Thoughtlesskyle's Sensible Gingerbread (or whatever it's called). It's fun to play with.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] luigig:
Undecided between the white and the metallic gray back.

I had the possibility to use a galaxy tab with the white back for a while and I had the impression that back is pretty strong plastic.

Is there any problem with the metallic back? Does it easily scratch?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jrocka01:
I would say the grey is better. It's finely grooved unlike the smooth plastic on the white one. Light scratches shouldn't show, of course I have a case on it anyway.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] joeski27:
Agreed, definitely glad I went the grey route. Excellent feel, and assuming you either a) put it in some kind of case (I'd HIGHLY recommend the Samsung case) or b) don't treat it like garbage, scratching shouldn't be an issue. I'd be FAR more concerned about scratching the white case than the grey ;)
[Galaxy S II General] zabihjan:
i have come from Xperia X10i. where i could flash roms in minutes with Xrecovery thx to J&Z & Trip for his wonderful roms without the need of connecting my phone to a pc.

I am a bit confused now. i have made up my mind about custom roms, Villain and Lightening. i want to try both.

I dont want to damage my SGS2 as it looks very very delicate. My questions is do i have to use ODIN all the time for changing and testing roms? or is there an easier way. The reason for this question is as:

My X10 usb port got damaged due to flashing different radios/basebands for different roms and i decided to get SGS2.
[Galaxy S II General] hansonator:
Odin is probably the easiest way to flash a rom but most custom ROMs are flashable with clockwork recovery. You first have to flash a custom kernel with odin to get clockwork though.
[Galaxy S II General] kirdroid:
Depends on the rom dev, if they make the rom flashable thru cwm recovery (cognition,batista etc) or odin like litening, villain.

Honestly both are pretty simple and quick. I have all my user apps, touchwiz config backed up thru titanium backup. So it only takes 5 to 10 mts to flash a new rom and restoring apps.

And don't worry you are not going to brick a samsung phone, odin will always rescue you if you can get into download mode :-)

[Xoom Themes and Apps] SQurel23:
Although pure Google is always the way to go, I was wondering if some aspects of the Galaxy Tab's TouchWiz would make its way to the Xoom. I suspect it could but only rooted Xoom's. The advanced multitasking and some of the widgets look decent.

Thoughts?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Brenardo:
i say if you want touchwiz then sale xoom and get a GTab 10.1.

But I also believe anything is possible with the devs we have here. Who knows what we will see when source code is released.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Theme Ishere:
I say, I love Android because you can customise it and it has a great developer scene. What is this forum for if not for these kind of challenges. I would love the mini apps on my xoom. Hell, all the time the Android side shouts about how great the multitasking is and that Ios does not have the real deal...but seriously, as a normal user you do not see a big difference (am I defending IOS....good lord...!). Mini Apps would be a great way to rectify that. And Google should have those kind of stuff in stock in the first place. And the updated Samsung Browser is supposed to be blazingly fast.

So yes, if any of the developers here would port parts of it, it would be greatly appreciated.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legacy2385:

Turn the headset off and then turn it on again but you have to press Power button for at least 5 seconds. Then you will see on display it's "searching" - right now search for it in SGS II.
