Something like that, just with a digital Volume Rocker and music controls would be Great! does any1 know something like that, wich works for the SGS2?

btw: i need this also as an "extension cord" for my headphones, this would be rly cool 'cause if the cable on the hp-jack would break, (and it usually breaks right on the hp-jack wich is plugged right on the device...) the only thing i had to replace would be this cable, not the expensive headphones...

btw sorry 4 my horrible english lol

It supports the mobile standard with in line mic and play/pause/DD button. Any headset that supports that, example is Bose MIE2 is a great one I use, works just fine. Plenty of options out there.
[Galaxy S II General] Sorrow1994:
Hi every one...

could i use this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson...46I0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1310809886&sr=8-2

and asign the single button that way, that it would skip to the next track? and if this would'nt work, would it even play music correctly? (since i also need this as an extension cord for my headphones... thanks
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
I don't know what Sony Ericsson supports, if they use their own method, or follow the industry standard. The sgs2 supports the industry standard which is in line mic and button for play pause ff rw. If that headset is standard then yes it should work.

Fyi you won't have to assign any buttons. Its just recognized and works automatically for any headset.
[Galaxy S II General] Sorrow1994:
Hi, you pointed out, that the GS 2 supports the industry standart, aswell as the iPhone, i think! So i assume that this one would work, since it's made for the iPhone...: http://cgi.ebay.com/Volume-Control-...ssories_RL&hash=item43a7d4af1f#ht_2065wt_1139

But it's from a chinese seller...
[Galaxy S II General] ryepie:
I purchased the Griffin Smarttalk Adapter, it's about £7 from Amazon (can't post links yet!) it works flawlessly. Good price too!

I use it in conjunction with the Headset Button Controller app from the market, so I can customise what actions are performed on the button clicks. Plus you can specify time delay for clicking etc. Highly recommended.
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
See I don't know cause its my understanding that apple uses their own slightly modified method.

What I did was went to best buy store and saw different headset models with button control. Each had an iPhone specific version, and a regular mobile version. So I bought the regular mobile version, and it works with the android devices I've tried. So I have a hard time giving you exact advice on which ones will or will not work. I'd think that most will work.

Wish others could give more info.
[Galaxy S II General] knightnz:
+1 for the Smarttalk. (http://www.amazon.com/Griffin-SmartTalk-Headphone-Adapter-Control/dp/B0014AVAPO)

========

Does anyone know how to wipe the download or installed history of apps from the Android Market. I'm not referring to the drop-down list in the search bar of the Market app on the phone, I'm referring to what (logged in) people see here:

https://market.android.com/mylibrary

The apps there are ones that a user has EVER downloaded/installed, for all time. That's fine, but they're all marked "Installed", which is NOT fine. In fact, it can be wrong.

I recently wiped my phone clean and currently only have (23) apps installed (from the Market). According to the page above, I have 120+ apps currently installed.

Options to either filter by a proper "Installed" flag would be nice. Or, how about a "Remove from my history" option ? At this point, I'd be happy to hand write my currently installed apps and start over.

hey all,

I've always used the button on my bluetooth handsfree to launch Vlingo, but it stopped working yesterday.. Now when I hit the button, I hear the beep but nothing happens on the phone. re-pairing didn't do anything either.. it still works fine on my N1. is this a HTC Sense related problem?

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rinzy20:
I've seen many different people say to install it different ways:

-Just install the rom

-Install CM7, THEN install MIUI

-Install OTB kernel before, install it after.

To be honest, I am completely confused. I would love to run MIUI but can't due to not knowing how.

I am currently running UKB 2.1 with Clockwork 3.0.2 (Red) and EB04.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloblaw1:
Generally people try to use the first method. If they get an error 7 they then try to install 7/4 build of cm7, and wipe data& caches, and then install miui.

Remember, once you get cm7 or miui installed ONLY use the recovery you get through the reboot menu. Do not use three button method.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rinzy20:
Thanks! I took a nandroid just in case obviously but I'm not sure how useful that will be since I'm currently voodoo. Do I need to unvoodoo then nandroid, then flash? Or can I flash MIUI even though I am running voodoo?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunyazz:
Whatever state you are in when you make your nandroid, you need to be in when you restore. You definatley need to turn voodoo off before you try to install MIUI.

Disable it, boot normally, then reboot to recovery and start from there.

Looking for help getting thr market , thanks in advance.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddvniek12:
Here you go. The newes Android Market. Just install the apk file on your phone.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bx19:
You can complain about the absence of market after doing two things.

One is flashing the universal Google apps package for cm7 from recovery. And the second is signing into Google account on your phone. I hope you have done both.

And simply flashing the apk file may not install the market when there is no market on phone.

You can also check with a file manager whether or not there is "vending.apk" in the path "system/app".
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ginocyy:

[HTC Inspire 4G] thesuffering:
currently running a sense 3.0 rom, and find the icon/widget sizes to be perfect. I do miss some of the stuff from launcher pro so id like to use it again, but the icon/widget sizes seem huge compared to that of sense. its it possible to change the resolution/density to make the sizes comparable? maybe im the only one to have an issue with this, but it really feels stretched out on my inspire. launcher pro looked perfect when i had a nexus one, but on the inspire everything is huge, which i dont really like
[HTC Inspire 4G] conantroutman:
Try using an app like lcd density changer from the market. Or you can edit the dpi value manually in the build.prop file...

[HTC Inspire 4G] audiophan:
I'm thinking about going to opposite direction, from a sense3 rom (VU1.27) to possibly gingerbeast. Since sense is built-in, does it operate more smoothly than the launcher? With everything I have running, VU already needs a restart or two to get through the day hiccup free - on an Inspire.

Any other words of wisdom?
[HTC Sensation] PensFan66:
So, coming from an unlimited plan to a 5GB 4G plan with the unlimited edge, Ive been looking around for tweaking the 2G speeds and came across alot of forum posts on various devices. These posts mention modifying the build.prop file and it has increased some 2G speeds by 50k or more. (In my area I do manage to pull 150-180k on edge).

Will these tweaks work for the Sensation?

A Great Light For N2E...

I just bought the Kandle Ozeri II light for my N2E it works great. Amazon has it for $25.00 (not able to post links yet). It runs on the button batteries two for 20 hours. At first I was against this but you can by 25 for $5 on Amazon. It also has two settings for brightness however the lowest setting works great for me with no dark spots on the screen. Some of the reviews stated it looked cheap and some of the clips have broken on them. Mine seems good so far but I'm careful putting it on and taking it off.

Mine even goes on with the nook cover (Lautner Case) I just got at Barnes. When I slide the light on I still put the clip in between the cover and the back of the device. But I think it would fit over the case also.

Also one more thing it does block the power button when you clip it on top of the N2E but I turn my device on before I stick the light on.

[Nook Touch Accessories] dorino1:
There will not be a stylus for the Nook STR that will offer any sort of precision because of the IR touchscreen. IR touchscreens aren't extremely accurate and require a large contact area on the screen to reliably pick up the touch. It's not capacitive, so a capacitive stylus won't do you any good, and neither will a typical stylus for a DS or palm or other device sporting a resistive touchscreen (resistive touchscreens can essentially be poked with anything and that anything can be used as a stylus)

Simply put, it's because of the IR touchscreen needing such a big contact area that you're not going to see any effective stylus, ever.

However, a finger and a whiteboard widget does result in an effective notepad.
[Nook Touch Accessories] GabrialDestruir:
I picked up an iFrogz stylus from Staples for my phone it works great on the Touch too. It's got a soft tip so it's not going to mess with the screen and it's accurate enough to work or write with.

[Vega General] Siygess:
I'm looking to pick up a PoV / Vega, mostly for the viewing of graphically intensive, A4-sized PDF documents but since the usual stockists in the UK no longer seem to have any of these on display I can't try it out for myself..

..so can anyone comment on PDF text readability in full screen and portrait? Does the screen width of 600 necessitate constant zooming, and does the viewing angle make it a generally difficult or unpleasant experience?
[Vega General] O_G:
Hi there

I use ezPDF to view magazines on my vega. It does a good job, there are black bars top and bottom, viewing A4 docs in portrait due to the 16:9 screen. But the text is perfectly viewable without zooming in. If the PDF is large in size and contains a lot of images, it does take the vega a second to switch pages. I can only put this down to the amount of ram in the vega, or a problem with ezPDF.

On a different note comic reader mobi works great on the vega. If you like that sort of thing...

Hope it helps

O_G
[Vega General] Siygess:
I do.. and it does!

I mostly plan to replace my bookshelf of roleplaying games with PDF equivalents (thankfully most publishers launch print and PDF versions of their products at the same time, now) and I'll be changing over my magazine subscriptions to PDF downloads once they become available.

So it seems like the Vega is going to be a good choice. Thanks again!
[Vega General] sbeddoesdesign:
I'll echo most of what OG said. ezPDF reader is the best, Adobe's own one runs a little slow on it and the touch screen goes a bit funky. I would say the only problems with viewing PDFs (or anything else) in portrait are the 16:9 orientation (most tablets go for 16:10 now, or 4:3 for iPad) leaving so much unused space, and the viewing angle. The viewing angle isn't much of a problem in landscape but in portrait I can't actually seem to find an angle where it actually looks right... at all. If your PDF is just black type on white you probably won't notice though.

-Swiftkey [So far I purchased since is the best one I have had, but not good enough]

If you're looking for speed, learn to use Swype. Takes a bit to get accustomed to, and allow it time to learn your habits. It has settings to adjust to your preferred input speed.

Swiftkey just released Swiftkey X which has a rapid typist option/profile.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
I keep coming back to SwiftKey. I loved Swiftkey X Beta, so I use the Swiftkey X now. I've used Swype (can't get it working on MIUI tho), Thumb Keyboard (I use this on my Xoom and love it!), and just never liked the stock Android keyboard.

There's something about hitting one or two letters of a word, then just typing the sentence by hitting the next word until you're done. It may be learning my patterns, in hopes that some day it will rise up and conquer me. Time will tell.

:cool:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bukithd:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagasgura:
It took me a while to get MIUI configured to use Swype but it was well worth it. Using Mytextspeed from the market, I tested different keyboards, and swype was by far the fastest, with Swiftkey in 2nd place. If you want swype on miui, just follow these instructions:

1. Download and install root explorer. You'll have to pay but it's a useful app and worth it. (OR you could download a free alternative, ES File Explorer)

1. Download swype installer and install swype (full language version only!!!!)

2. After installation, there will be a screen with 4 options:

a. watch video

b. start tutorial

c. generate license

d. finisho

4. Press the home button to exit swype installer and open root installer

5. Go to /data/app in Root Explorer (In ES File Explorer, you first have to enable read-write permissions in the menu, then navigate to data/app)

6. Click on "com.swype.android.inputmethod-1.apk" and long hold to bring up the options menu

7. Click move, scroll to /sdcard/download and click "paste"

8. Press the home button to exit root explorer

9. Open swype installer. You should get a force close error. If you do not and instead see the screen with "disable swype", click the back button which will bring you back to the home screen then click swype installer again. Do not continue until swype installer force closes. Alternatively, if you have the "force close with longpress of back button" option installed in the MIUI system settings, you could just hold down the back key until it force closes.

10a. Go back to root explorer (or ES File Explorer) and move "com.swype.android.inputmethod-1.apk" back to /data/app

10b. If you have Root Explorer, ignore this step: Press menu and set it to read only

11. Go back to the home screen and open swype installer

12. Click "select swype" and then select swype

13. Click "finish"

14. Enjoy!

In my opinion, swype is the best, fastest keyboard out there. You only need one finger or thumb to use it, which means you can type just as fast with one hand, and it's very intuitive. Although it does take a little getting used to, once you get the hang of it, you'll never go back to tapping.

I did play around with Swiftkey X a little, and after repeadedly typing in "the quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog", it was soon able to predict "quick" right after typing "the".
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZealotOnAStick:
I'd say SwiftKey X if you're using a ROM that doesn't have the HTC_IME one. I like the HTC keyboard a lot, and after getting spoiled by it, I hate the Gingerbread kb. I popped the $1.99 for SwiftKey X when it was on sale last week so I could have a far more capable kb than the stock Gingerbread one on roms like CM7.
