[HTC EVO 3D] shaun0207:
Any one else notice that Sense 3.0 no longer has the option of opening one email than scrolling through all the rest of the email in that account? Now I have to go back to my list of unread email and open them one by one.

Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] awenthol:
In the message, hit menu..."previous" and "next" are options...
[HTC EVO 3D] shaun0207:
Thanks.I never knew that was there. I liked it better up at the top and not in the menu.:)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Just noticed that NewspaperDirect have shipped their first version of PressReader that's specifically intended for tablets:

http://www.prweb.com/releases/pressreader/android/prweb8616121.htm

I've actually started using PressReader myself, and although it's a bit more expensive than subscribing to the website of the paper I want to read (South China Morning Post), it's also more convenient in that I can read it offline and in the same manner as the real paper.

Here's hoping that Asus upgrades the existing version to the tablet one in their next firmware update. I'd definitely prefer to have a Honeycomb-specific version, but if I want it right now, I'll end up with two PressReader installs on my tablet.

I'll be talking to the PressReader folks in a few days when I upgrade to a paid account, so I'll see if they can tell me anything about whether Asus will be shipping an update at the same time... Fingers crossed!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] murd0ck77:
Misread .. Doh but HoneyComb PressReader is way better now, the layout is so much user friendly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Haven't installed it yet as I didn't want to risk it not coexisting with my existing subscription. What did they change, specifically?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrdo:
the interface is ok but it really bugs me that i have to choose a country everytime i want to browse newspapers.

it would be better to be able to set a default and then browse other countries if required.

also, it seems pretty expensive. i've subscribed at the moment but i'm not sure that i can justify the cost ... i love reading the latest newspapers on my transformer though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sbliner:
Granted...the shelf is different. But other than that..when actually viewing the papers I don't see much/any difference from the version that was already on our 3.1 Transformer. Maybe they just launched it with Asus first before bringing it to the app store? Do you notice any differences?

BTW. Although I like clicking on a headline to get just that story on one page.. I think it should include all the pictures associated with the story. Many times it's just text...sometimes one out of 3 pictures is included.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Took a look myself, and what they've added is a new view mode accessed with a button near the right end of the top menu bar while viewing a paper. It gives you a supposedly more newspaper-like arrangement where you see (other than the front / rear covers) two pages side by side, with a faint darkening towards the division between the two pages, to mimic the look of an opened newspaper.

It's cute I guess, but only really of use if you tap headlines to read stories, which I don't. Except for the headlines, the font is too small to be readable even on a tablet.

What I'd much rather see PressReader add is a view that would fit the page to the screen width, which would make for a very readable paper in landscape orientation on a tablet. (Drag up / down to read the page, flick side to side to change pages). Right now, their default view choices are either zoomed (which requires 2D panning), single-page (with loads of wasted space around the edges), or double-page (with loads of wasted space around the edges).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaughingMoose:
So I put SuperVibe on last night and am absolutely loving it. I have CM7 on my Nook and overclocked it to 1.3 via the CM7 integrated settings. I want to do the same on my Vibrant. I was just wondering what the best clock would be to do. I'd like to keep a good battery life, and would like to see a nice little improvement performance wise.

Any suggestions?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
I think supercm7vide comes with Neo kernel. With that kernel, the Max oc is 1.6.

One good app to use to oc and undervolt is voltagecontrol.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaughingMoose:
Yeah, it does go up to 1.6, though I read somewhere it's not recommended to go that high. Is using the CM7 settings sufficient? Or should I look into that app you mentioned? And is bumping it up 1.3ish fine?

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
yeah, using cm settings will work, but you could find you're unstable even at 1.3, but using voltage control, you can try to stabilize it by undervolting.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatever5:
Im running the latest cm7 nightly with neo 10 kernel at 1440 mhz btw i undervolted using voltage control and i cant say much 4 the battery cuz i only used it 4 a day but its stable 4 me

[Windows Phone 7 General] seanlindo06:
Has anyone noticed that when you switch to a different application it completely resets that app?

1. Open Twitter then close

2. Open email client

3. Press & hold back button to navigate back to Twitter

4. Black screen flashes and then "resuming..."

Is there a code snippet that just needs to be included to fix this behavior? I have not yet gone through the Mango training course but hopefully that's the case.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Andrmgic:
The application project has to be changed to a 7.1 project and recompiled.

If it hasn't been updated to a Mango application as above, then it won't be using the new features.

I don't think MS is allowing Mango application submissions yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
Yup. As andrmgic stated, its something that just requires it to be recompiled with the 7.1 SDK for mango. Its not additional coding or anything so its very easy for developers to address.

But they will also need to wait for the ability to submit those changed apps, which wont happen for a couple months.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiny17:
But it is fairly easy to add. So I imagine we will just see a ton of app updates come out right before Mango is officially released.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jotapm:
I don't see "resuming..." when I go back to an app. I even tried openning 3 games and returning to them was instantaneous. Maybe it's because I had dehydration hack enabled on NoDo?
[Windows Phone 7 General] seanlindo06:
Wait, I was under the impression the Mango update was a full reflash of the handset. In that case those registry hacks should be wiped out, but maybe I'm wrong. I have a few apps in 7.0 development; can't wait to switch over to 7.1 and implement these new features.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mcorrie1121:
Nah, all my info was there after the update. That's why some people are having issues if they had reg hacks before the update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] seanlindo06:
Interesting. Don't think I'll go back to nodo to apply a few tweaks though. Thanks given all around.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doesntexist:
I had the dehydration hack enabled and I now have fast app switching on all apps including games.

I am so glad I had that hack enabled before the update, as its a great experience switching between apps now :) I can be playing a game, then go check on facebook, then hold the back key and get straight back into my game where I left off, no resuming necessary.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
OH! I was wondering about this becuase fast app switching works really well for me. I do not get a resuming screen at all for example playing angry birds and switching to facebook is near instant!

Some apps dont work well this way though, the xda app for one crashes and rowi has trouble resuming.
[Windows Phone 7 General] seanlindo06:
Aw man..that's great news then. It would be nice if I could edit the registry after the fact. I'd hate to re-download everything and get my tiles and everything setup just how I like them. Plus, my FB chat finally works!
[G2 and Desire Z General] slapshot30:
Hey guys, just wondering why some of you sware by sense. I am currently on Unity and the only thing I really use is the weather lock screen. I had to switch to Launcher Pro due to the lag of the stock launcher. I love eye candy but not at the cost of speed. Sense has always kind of been associated with the word lag it seems. So what do you guys like most about Sense and what you keeps you from moving away from it? What am I missing about these Sense ROMs?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Max):
Notification bar offer the last used applications and you can switch view to rapidly disconnect your Wifi, GPS, etc.

It's Eye-candy,the camera app contains lots of effect, you can locate your phone via htcsense.com, etc.

Also when you plug the phone to your computer you have a better interface with a lot of options like hotspot, internet computer->phone, internet phone->computer to PC AND Mac OS x.

[G2 and Desire Z General] waxinpoetic:
Im on the awesome mexdroidmod rom, but I do miss a few aspects of sense. The lock screen is amazing, but what I really miss is the dialer and camera. I have tried many replacement apps for these but haven't found anything that suits me. I also seem to get better facebook and hotmail contact integration on sense roms. Still the speed of the non sense roms is more important to me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
I swear by sense because it is exactly what I am used to. I used the HTC touch pro using sense for winmo and now sense for android. I like the feel and integration HTC has done for their UI.
[G2 and Desire Z General] endlesstrail:
I don't really use the Sense 3.0 (or Sense 2.0 for that matter) weather app at all.

What I do like about Sense is that it has the wifi hotspot available out of the box; no need for any extra apps to get that function.

Sense 3.0 camera also comes with the panoramic function which I think is quite handy.

I also like the quick settings available after dragging down the notifications tray. Not too sure if that's from Sense 3.0 or is it an added feature of Unity though, but it's handy and saves me from having to install the toggle widgets.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Alucard400:
I like sense because it has the extra conveniences just like everyone likes using. I like the integration of FB contacts with the contacts. I really love how you can launch apps in the lock screen with 3.0

I dont like using the weather that much either, but the overlay is just very very pretty. Htc sense is one of the reasons android is better than iOS.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Whippler:
i'm on MIUI now, love MIUI's notification settings toggles, way better than sense 3.0... any way to import MIUI notification bar to non MIUI roms??

not much to complain about MIUI, some gps problems tough :/

Senses dock is so nonfunctional :/ only 3 shortcuts, and 2 of them are "useles". no need to keep customize button available @ dock. And then the appdrawer button, like to use launcher pros swipe up to open appdrawer.

I like sense too because it gives selection of usb connection types, MIUI only asks if i want to mount sdcard. for internet share, need to go though all the settings.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
I'm on Unity now as well, and the Sense 3.0 launcher actually feels less laggy than past versions, especially considering all the animations. But you're right in alternate launchers are still faster/smoother, and also much customizable. I'm using ADW EX. People often ask, why use Sense if you aren't using the Sense launcher. But there is actually a lot to Sense, besides just the launcher.

The Sense camera continues to completely pwn the stock Android one in layout, looks and features. I also prefer the HTC dialer and keyboard over stock Android, although many of the differences for those are aesthetic, and its just a matter of personal preference. Of course Sense 3.0 has "trace" on the keyboard, but Swype is still better at this style of text input.

The notification area (with quick settings) and lockscreen (with fast launching of your favorite apps) on Sense 3.0 are quite nice. The HTC stock and weather apps are pretty nice too. Nothing special that can't be matched or beat by Market apps. But its nice to have apps that are integrated with the general theming of the ROM, no ads, etc.

Agree with above comment that the Sense dock is pretty useless. It takes up a lot of space for so little functionality. HTC actually added the ability to customize the dock apps for the version of Sense on the Flyer tablet. Hopefully, this is a feature they bring to the phone version of Sense.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Whippler:
one more thing, i like senses web browser app, it's great, is there a standalone app for nonsense phones?
[G2 and Desire Z General] bradley_e_smith:
Almost There Sense

For me, the things I like about sense are the social (wish tweeter and facebook were separate) and weather widgets, the lock screen and the overall look and feel.

Things that keep me on CM7 (with launcher pro) are: configuring of the dock, scrollable widgets, speed and free memory, no "The application HTC Sense (process com.htc.as) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" messages.

If the dock on the Sense ROM was more configurable (may have 5 icons instead of 3) and scrollable widgets, then Sense might become my DD.

On a side note, I haven't tried Launcher Pro with Sense, so maybe there is something to try. Curious how many people use Sense with non-sense launchers.

-brad
[G2 and Desire Z General] JCreations:
I use sense with laucherpro. Main reason for me to use sense are the following:

-Smart Dialer

-Email app (unified mailbox)

-Contact list

-Calendar (like the way how it looks)

You probably can get these options by downloading some other apps, but i like to keep my phone as stock and functional possible.
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
I've used CM6 and CM7 and I always end up back on a Sense ROM (lately, Sense Unity), for several reasons:

1. Camera - the stock (and CM) camera experience is ABYSMAL. Completely terrible. The Sense camera app has so many more options and just gives a MUCH better experience.

2. Sharing - this is hard to explain, but in AOSP-based ROMs, when you click to share something, the intents menu that pops up ISN'T scrollable - that means, if you have lots of apps that tie into that menu, it may crowd out the one you want to use. In Sense ROMs, this submenu is scrollable, so I can access EVERYTHING on that list.

3. Exchange mail - the Sense mail app has several improvements in functionality over the stock one, including the ability to subscribe to folders (so they automatically update), an integrated inbox with all your subscribed folders, etc. It also looks MUCH better.

4. The Sense 3.0 lockscreen is freakin amazing. Anything prior to Sense 3.0, CM7's is actually better

5. Settings - Sense has the extras that let the ringer mute itself when you pick up the phone, switch to speakerphone by putting it face-down, etc etc. I *believe* the later versions of CM7 have that as well, but it wasn't commonplace until recently.

I use LauncherPro Plus, and have on all my phones, regardless of the ROM. The customization options and lower memory profile make it a slam-dunk. I don't use Sense Launcher and I don't use ADW, so all my Sense benefits are on the backend.
[G2 and Desire Z General] taob:
I haven't used the ROM's stock launcher since my HTC Hero running 1.5. My current choice is GO Launcher EX with the paid version of Colorize Widgets or the free GOWidgerts. I would love to figure out a way to run the Sense 3.0 widgets with a third-party launcher.

As many people have already mentioned, the Sense 3.0 weather lockscreen is great. I also love the "cylinder tumblers" style of setting date and time values. I hate having to click + and - buttons. The only way it could be better is if tapping on the value allowed you to type in the number, like in stock Android. Check out the implementation in the Sense Calendar app... it has click-stops every 15 minutes. :)

I tend to use 3rd-party replacements for everything else (dialer, SMS, keyboard), although the camera app is quite nice. If it were possible to get just the Sense 3.0 lockscreen (with wake/sleep-on-trackpad), I'd probably go back to running CM.
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
So, we have probably all noticed that even compared to other phones the xperia line (and the Play in specific) seem to suffer from lower reception capability.

Putting them side by side, my Motorola Droid (A855, OG Droid 1) gets a better signal both in DB measurement and in bars. Same thing for WiFi signal. I'm guessing there is an issue with design of the antenna array in the device that causes for lower reception/broadcast quality.

I don't wish to shell out $300 for a cell repeater or $300 + monthly for a femtocell that will eat my internet bandwidth (which is pathetically limited). With that in mind, I went and started looking over the device, its teardowns, and its schematics. I was looking for something as a diversity jack for an external antenna. Now I noticed, next to the battery connector, there is a small semi-covered coax input. It appears that if you pulled off the rest of the sticker, or even if you just pushed a coax prong into there you could potentially be an antenna. However, it is not specifically labeled as such on the system board or the chassis, and the schematics were largely electrical diagrams and not system board schematics. Is there any answer for this? On pretty much every smartphone I have ever owned, there is an auxillary or "diversity" coax jack for adding an external antenna or doing signal injection.

Does anybody have any input on this? I would love to be able to boost my phone's reception quality, even if only in the car or at home (even if it means a custom modded case for ease of connect/disconnect).
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
Cant help you with your specific question but i can throw a tip.

- Switch your phone to GSM only. It will strengthen the signal. The downside is you are stuck with G/E data speeds (slower than H).
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
Sadly, with the US-CDMA variant and its firmware, I believe that is not an option. I'm specifically using the R800x. However, the board layouts are essentially identical.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
I don't see the problem if you arnt getting any dropped calls. Wrap your phone in tin foil lmao
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
Well that is sort of the problem. I live in an area that its hills are filled with lead and other heavy minerals. Dead zones and limited signal zones are rampant, especially while driving. I _DO_ get dropped calls, and more importantly dropped data. Heck I even get dropped data from the router in the house through only one wall just a room away.

Basically if I can find out where exactly the aux/diversity port is for antennas, then I could design and fabricate a better back cover to either allow for external antennas, or to integrate better antennas into the cover (like the Thunderbolt sort of does).

Side note: Wrapping it in Tin/Aluminum Foil would make it worse, I believe (yes I have limited sense of humour).
[Xperia Play General] svenk919:
you can easely remove the rubber in front of the coax port (atleast it definitly looks like a coax port). Would like to see a back case with better antenna in it (also being able to harbor an extra fat battery).
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
The problem is that there are several coax ports. The one near the battery connector is the most obvious, but there are some more that are under the secondary cover or behind more stickers. Trying to find out which one is which or what they do is not easy. I have some basic electronics schematics, some teardown pics/video, and a really really sparse parts replacement guide, but not much else to go on.
[Xperia Play General] svenk919:
Plug in an antenna and see if it improves? :P
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
*laughs* I suppose that would be the easy/simple way to find out, wouldn't it?

I'll see if I can find a matching pigtail adapter and see if I can plug a big fat antenna into and see if the DBM improves for either Cell or WiFi. I wanted to see if anybody could confirm before I attempted to mod this thing.

Cover the secondary mic with your finger makes your voice louder at quiet environments.

At noisy places the secondary mic seems work just fine.

maybe a bad software implementation of noise suppression?
