Just tried it... seems to work pretty good. I don't have a cam on my laptop, so that box was empty, but the video from my xoom seemed rather low quality.

Is there a setting to adjust that? Or does it use other factors to adjust the quality?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getyroks:
Is there any way to change or remap the useless "Search" soft key on the ATRIX?? Maybe someone could make a script that one could follow or maybe an app.... I did a search but nothing turned up for the ATRIX..

Thanks in advance!!!:)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xyrovice:
eyo OP,

All I'm aware of is that certain apps can be swapped out for the Search key LONG press.

For example, I've remapped it to take me to Quick Settings so I can toggle GPS, wifi, autorotate etc from within an app without having to exit it. Another app it mentioned being able to map the Long press to was Miren browser (i've since switched to Boat mini. smaller footprint is all, nothing really wrong with miren's functionality)

As for completely remapping it? search function and all? I'm not so sure, and (sadly) I certainly don't have the dev skills to fiddle with any policy/build.jars

Sorry I couldn't help more.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getyroks:

Probably because those are the only two apps the system detects as viable. An app I saw mentioned was "Launchkey"...looks like the author for the linked thread is developing both. Seems to be what you're looking for. Just make sure the Atrix is liberated enough to meet the req's for those apps. Looks like it needs a lot of permission type deals.

Good luck.

Anyone know how to hook up wireless tether?
[LG Revolution] Reese8732:
I hooked up my PS3 and 360 with WiFi tether, its easy too. Just put the console on wireless and scan. Know what you name your phone, I used my name, then select it and put the password in if you made one.(You should so can't no one else use your internet unless you want them too).

Once you get everything set, your phone should alert you that a device is trying to access its signal. Accept it and run a test on the Wii to make sure that you are good.

Hope that helps out.
[LG Revolution] Rav20:
Yeah I did all that and still getting an error on the wii
[LG Revolution] Rav20:
Which wireless tether app are you using? And is there anyway to get out of adhoc mode?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
If you use the verizon 4g tether you are on infrastructure mode, and can connect to the wii.

[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
EDIT: I realize that I messed up the title. I meant to write if we could replace the current HTC messaging app with the vanilla one.

Title says it all. I've gotten used to HTC's way of things but I'd really, really prefer the vanilla experience. Since we don't have S-OFF or custom AOSP roms yet, can we at least replace the MMS.apk on our Sensations with the vanilla one?
[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
Bump. Does anyone have a clue? It's apparently been done on, for example, the G2. I'd really rather have stock messaging app.
[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
No one??? :( Maybe I should repost this in Themes & Apps.
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
No u can't cause it won't stick cause u can't write to system anyway
[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
Thanks for the answer. I guess this is another reason to anticipate S-OFF!
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
Right.....
[HTC Sensation] jassycliq:
Or how about you just install it with a file manager. Then disable the notifications from htc messagin app
[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
I followed these steps: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11050253&postcount=2 and used the Mms.apk provided there, which should be the 2.3 vanilla messaging app.

Everything went fine when copying over to the phone, etc., but when trying to actually open the app on my phone it force closes from the start. It does show the vanilla mms.apk icon though, the green text bubble with the smiley. If I could get this to stop force closing and actually open/work, I'd be happy!
[HTC Sensation] jassycliq:
I'll get you a link to one.
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
It's not gonna work. U can't "install" it. U have to put it in system
[HTC Sensation] jassycliq:
Yeah you have to copy it to your system apps with a file explorer...
[HTC Sensation] dragon4000:
If you have Root Explorer or any other explorer, then try to copy and paste it to /system/app/ and reboot the phone. Hope that helps.
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
Won't work ppl. We don't have perm yet. I don't think it would work even then if I remember correctly
[HTC Sensation] jassycliq:
It should work as we have temp root which last till the reboot. And if not then you cant just use adb to either install or push. There should be ways around this. :/
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
how temp root will help when u gotta reboot for it to take effect? o_O
[HTC Sensation] jassycliq:
You only need to reset the launcher last time I tried it.
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
the launcher? For the messaging app? I give... (op doesn't seem interested anymore anyway)
[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
No, I am still interested. I've just been away from the computer. I'll try with root explorer.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ky0nkyon:
I asked this in the CM thread but thought it would be more appropriate to ask here. I tried to update CM to 7.1 today, and realized that it was getting to the lockscreen, but continously rebooting the phone. I thought I should go back to othe previous 7.0.3 that I backed up on CWM. I shut off the phone, pressed vol down and powered on to get to hboot, went to recovery, restore, restore backup. Now it was stuck on the white HTC screen, so I tried to wipe all data/factory reset, dalvik, cache everything. Tried to restore again and still having to be stuck on the white screen. what do i do? i'm freaking out here. thanks for your helps in advance.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Regularunleaded:
Loving BAMF GingerRemix, I've run it for about a week with no issues, but today I tried to use Navigation.

I could get directions and a GPS lock, and Navigation would work for about a minute or two and then reboot. It got extremely unstable after that, and more or less any application I opened would freeze and the phone would reboot. I let it sit for a few minutes, all the applications work fine, except for Navigation; I've duplicated the reboot problem about five times now.

Any ideas? I'm going out of town tomorrow and would love to fix this, otherwise I'm going to have to flash to a different Rom for the time being as I'll need Nav.

I'm running das Bamf 2.1 Remix with an MR2 radio.

Wish I had better news for you, but I'm also running das BAMF 2.1 Remix with MR2 radio, and I've never had a single issue with Navigation. I use it all the time and it works flawlessly. Did you do a full wipe of data/cache before flashing the ROM? Try clearing data and cache from the nav app and try it again.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Regularunleaded:
Yeah, full wipe on the install, cleared the cache for maps. Still kind of wonky but it has yet to reboot on me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ElAguila:
I wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the general section. I didn't see it mentioned so hopefully this is something new. I just realized that if you tap and hold the icons on the launcher bar at the bottom of the home screens you can remove it. You can then add your own app. I don't know why I didn't try this before. This works on my View and probably works on the flyer as well.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaRkL3AD3R:
I saw this same exact issue on Das BAMF Gingerstripped and it was really freaking annoying. The fastest solution was a reboot, but it was possible to wait it out until data comes back.

Another thing I started to play with before I flashed to CM7 was using Plane mode as a way to re-engage Mobile Networks (3G + 4G) to get data back. It worked sometimes, but other times nothing. So far running about 24 hours on CM7 and have not had this issue yet, where as on Gingerstripped BAMF I was seeing this problem daily.

I also just flashed the newest radio (1.70) and will see how that works. I'm hoping I just don't see this issue again at all, don't care if its due to CM7 or the radio. I just don't want to deal with it anymore.

[General Questions and Answers] boxrick:
I have recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S2. I have the phone set up the way i like it but i wish to try different OS versions which will require rooting and wiping my phone so a few questions regarding backups:

1) Currently i have my gmail contacts and facebook contacts "linked" together. I believe this is only stored locally on my phone. Is there a way i can save all this contact info so when i log back in to my profile in the future it will all be seamlessly placed as it was.

2) Currently i have a whole batch of homescreens with icons and widgets and my applications screen with every app in a "folder" can i back these up exactly as they are?

3) Within various different applications there are different options or save games and various things like that, are these easily accessible and able to be backed up

4) Finally can i just do an "image" of my phone and if i wipe it and mess about then simply restore that image back to exactly how it was?

Cheers for any help :)
[General Questions and Answers] RDionysus:
boxrick,

Can't answer specifically for the Galaxy S2 as I don't have it, and because Android is "pimped" in various ways by different device makers some of the homescreens/layouts are custom implemented, and best backed up by the methods appropriate for--or offered by--that device.

Having said that, if you are using Google market, a lot of stuff (like the apps obviously) is automatically saved with them. Or the apps themselves can be backed up with any good file manager, like Astro, to an SD card or via USB.

I can't answer you about the Gmail & Facebook contacts being "linked together", but from experience most items are stored in the Google Contacts data-fields and stored remotely in your Google account (and therefore restored from there straightaway)

I have multiple Android devices, and to tell you the truth I pretty much just copy everything "en-masse" to a hard drive. If you're rooted, it's fairly easy to pull down almost everything this way. You're just dealing with files and folders, just like on your regular computer (which is why I'm pretty much done with anything "black-box" like formerly iphone/ipad, btw :rolleyes:)

If you're looking for a "set-it-and-forget-it" type app, I don't currently use any, but on my travels I've seen a few "names" tossed around with good reviews. You can research

MyBackup Pro

Sprite Backup

Those two are pretty well known full-blown-backup type apps. They're paid apps, but cheap.

I've heard of The Missing Sync which takes a different approach by syncing all your data to a Windows or Mac desktop for backup and also for re-distribution to other devices. Sort of like a "data-centralizer" type approach, which might be up your alley. I think the app runs about $40 though.

Finally, I do use the free LifeSaver 2 app for important SMS messages and call logs-- picked it up over at F-droid.org. It's for pretty specific data types, but it's this stuff that usually is the hardest to save (since I don't actually know where it is when I backup the entire root directory + subs & files).

Hope the above gives you some ideas. My general advice would be to research, read the boards, with special attention to the threads dedicated to the Galaxy S2, because the other users have gone before you ;)

And btw, if you find something really cool (including if one of the apps above turn out to help you), make sure you come back and post your findings. I'm always on the lookout for a "gem" app that makes my life easier. :)

Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] rogier666:
Apps: Titanium.

Data: MyBackup.

MyBackup does a much better job at saving your contacts than Google does. MyBackup restores them exactly as they were, Google often loses custom fields and messes up your contact names. Just look at the mess when you sync a contact called "Al's Pizza (open 'till midnight)" back from Google. It also gets the timestamps on SMSs right, which most competitors don't.

You could forget about Tit and backup your apps with MyB too, but then you miss out on all the different batch jobs that come with Tit.

There's one thing that all backup apps choke on: widgets. I always have to set 'em up again after a wipe/restore job.
[General Questions and Answers] inaroundroom:
Can't titanium backup both apps & data?
[General Questions and Answers] rogier666:
Titanium can backup user data, sort of.

Restoring user data with Tit is not as straightforward as with MyB. They should add a user data screen so you don't have to hunt for your data in a long list of apps.
[General Questions and Answers] boxrick:
One final question, if I was to change from Android Phone A to Android Phone B. Will these "apps" and backups be able to restored to a totally different phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Borat38:
rogier, what widget app do you use? I use Elixir, and in it there's an option to export widget data. Search for the "edit widgets" button, click it and you'll be taken to a pane where all the widgets are replaceable. Below it, you'll see a "More" button--that's where the import/export widgets button is. After you export widgets settings (you have to type in a name for it), Elixir then saves that exact config. After flashing a ROM and restoring via Ti, you can then choose to add back your widgets via the "Import" button. Remember though: if you want to bring back a 5x5 widget, you have to choose "5x5" widget after long pressing on a blank space, otherwise the widget won't restore properly. With this, you can have as many widgets you want and not worry about the tedious process of reconstructing them after a restore.
[General Questions and Answers] thetinybus:
do you have to use the paid for version of titanium?
[General Questions and Answers] martoparto:
Yes, you can with Google . Go to Settings --> Privacy --> Back up my data.

When you buy your new phone, select restore my data. At first you won't see any difference, but after a few hours your apps will be restored
[General Questions and Answers] rogier666:
Right now I've got Widgetsoid, DroidStats, Smooth Calendar, PlayerPro, DroidWall, Make Your Own Clock, and seNotes on my home screens.

Some widget apps have a backup option, some only come in one flavor (like DroidWall) so they don't really need a backup option. But others (like most notes widgets) don't have any backup option at all.

This is really annoying for the sticky notes widgets, because it's often impossible to remember what info you'd have to put back in them (which is why you wrote it in a note to begin with).

So I'd really like a one click option to back up and restore all my widgets.
[General Questions and Answers] rogier666:
Nope, you don't. The free version backs up everything too. It just takes more clicks to restore your stuff.

The free version of MyBackup only restores to the same phone that it backed up, so if you want to use MyBackup to transfer your data to a new phone you'll need the paid version.
[General Questions and Answers] boxrick:
I have purchased MybackupPro. The problem is I am fairly confident it will not back up my linked contacts. Therefore I need to root my phone and use TI backup...

Why would it?

Voltage is suppose to be 5V, and the current is controlled by the rom. Although the output is rated at 5V 1A for the external battery pack, the phone will take in 5V 750mA. Even if it is rated at 5V 2A, the phone will still do 5V 750mA.

It is the same as charging with the standard charger.
