[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jovalleau:
I was about to make this thread when one of the suggested threads answered my questions. Ha!

On to another question. Originally I was going to ask about the weather on the home screen to choose a city instead of using my location. The reason for the change, as great as the my location feature is, is that it slows my phone down to a crawl, and I don't know why. It speeds back up as soon as I disable my location.

Any possible remedies to this issue? I'm on WM 6.5 with Sense 2.5, stock Sprint ROM

It's odd that we want to know what the weather is like where we currently are, hehe.

Hi,

I can not use "Settings - Personalise" in Android Revolution HD ROM 3.0.0.

When I click on it, it goes back to the main screen and nothing happens.

I testet it in German also in English.

Any ideas?

P.s. Sorry for my english
[HTC Sensation] Dacoit:
Personalize does not work with custom Launchers. Go back to sense launcher.
[HTC Sensation] rickyjune:
yeah, if you have ADW or Go Launcher it will bring you right back to the home screen.

Download home switcher from the market and switch to Sense and then click on Personalize. You can switch back to your launcher afterwards :D
[HTC Sensation] tlausl:
That will I try, thanks.

btw. I forgot, there is no sense anymore, I use the No-Sense script :(.

Yes its about Samsung but htc is in a fight too

Samsung has suffered another setback in the European Union. Weeks after a German court ordered an injunction of their Galaxy Tab 10.1, a Dutch court has ruled in Apple's favor against Samsung's Galaxy line of smartphones. According to the decision, Samsung infringed on patent number EP 2059868, which is for a "portable electronic device for photo management."

Here is a description of the patent:

A portableelectronic device with a touch screen display for photo management is disclosed. One aspect of the invention involves a computer-implemented method in which the portable electronic device displays an array of thumbnail images corresponding to a set of photographic images. Thedevice replaces the displayed array of thumbnail images with a user-selected photographic image upon detecting a user contact with a corresponding thumbnail image in the array. The user-selected photographic image is displayed at a larger scalethan the corresponding thumbnail image. Theportabledevice displays a different photographic image in replacement of the user-selected photographic image in accordance with a scrolling gesture. Thescrolling gesture comprises a substantially horizontal movement of user contact with the touch screen display.

Thedecision applies to three Samsung phones:

Galaxy S Galaxy S II Galaxy Ace

Thethree phones cannot be sold by Samsung's subsidiaries in The Netherlands or any other EU country that recognizes the patent in question. Samsung has vowed to keep fighting and the war is not likely to be over anytime soon. Stay tuned.

[HTC EVO 3D] Visionikz03:
Stuff like this is why I only own and will only ever own one apple device which is my macbook pro because it serves my audio/music purposes well. I did get it second hand so it was half price which makes me feel good i didn't give that much money to this inhumane company. They have little to no innovation and wat little innovation they have conjured up, they patent the **** out of it so that they don't have to work hard to come up with new ideas because they know that's their achilles heel and other companies know it too which is why they try to develop better ideas. Look the pad and pad2? What out of this world differences are there between the two besides the price hike and it looks exactly the same as the original!! I understand very complex things that are not part of normal everyday computer technology should be patented but stuff like digital photo albums etc are present across all platforms of tablets and phones. They are hampering the advance of technology. But I guess they think they are the advance of technology. Samsung, Google, HTC and Motorola all of which are involved in suits with Apple should team up and bring Mr. Jobs to his knees!!!!

Don't hate Apple, hate the patent courts that allow these patents to put into place. Apple was (is) trying to patent making a cell phone out of a certain type of metal. Keep in mind that Apple didn't develop this metal, but they just want to patent making a phone out of it. People can try to patent whatever they want, but it is up to the courts to block ridiculous patents (such as the example I gave) from going through.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vindic8ed:
Hate both. Hate the courts for letting rediculous things like this slide by and hate the companies for not only trying to get the patent, but also trying to screw other companies over if they get the patent.

I dunno my impression was that it could be a Android problem. I believe it is saying

!. Photo gallery with thumbnails

2. When you click a thumbnail it shows in its full size.

3. When do a horizontal scrolling gesture it goes to the next picture.

I hope when the Motorola-Google thing is finalized, They block the sale of all Apple products on the planet. Then Google can buy Apple and force Steve Jobs to dress up like a organ grinders monkey and dance for our amusement!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cpiggott@gmail.com:
I just got my Photon 4G HD dock so I could play with webtop. It's sort of neat, but other than firefox and some media players, it by itself isn't very useful. So this got me wondering how one would add software to it. Motorola has a webtop app gallery, but not much there.

This got me thinking: how does this thing work? Not the way the Motorola document describes it, but how does it really work? Here are a few things I have learned so far.

The whole webtop environment is a chroot. If you have SshDroid installed, log in and "chroot /osh /bin/bash" and you can explore it. It's an ubunty jaunty environment, meaning it has apt and dpkg. That sounded interesting, so I did a "dpkg -l" to see what was installed. I found a few troubling things:

pF openbsd-inetd 0.20080125-2 The OpenBSD Internet Superserver

That package is on the node, but notice that it's left in a purged/failed state. This isn't really a problem, but it's a little messy. When I combine it with this:

ii webtop-action-intent 1.0-1 <insert up to 60 chars description>
ii webtop-bluetooth-share 1.0-1 <insert up to 60 chars description>
ii webtop-refresh-bookmark 1.0-1 <insert up to 60 chars description>

(and there are others) it gives me the feeling that whomever constructed these packages may not have been all that well versed in how to properly create them. Again, this doesn't really matter much, but it doesn't instill a great deal of confidence.

Next, I decided to look at configured repositories. Two are configured, one named WEBtop the other is plain old ubuntu Jaunty. So here's where things get a little dicey. Both are configured to point to a mirror that is a 10.* address, i.e. an RFC1918 (internal) addresses, meaning they won't ever be accessible outside of someone's private intranet.

How, then, do they ever intend to update this? There are no entries in sources.list.d/

I could point toward the real jaunty distribution if it's still available (jaunty is pretty ancient at this point and has disappeared from many of the mirrors).

The next thing I really need is an xterm and an ssh client. If anyone has more to add to this please share. Otherwise, I'll keep you posted as I learn.

-To get your phone in download mode, did you try the "three button combo"? meaning: volume down, home and power all at the same time.

-Are you sure that whatever you're going to try and flash this time is going to be suitable for your phone?

Hey guys, this had been posted in other forums, but I wanted some specific answers from play users.

I've been wanting to root my play for a while in order to freeze apps/control the cpu for improved battery life, and now that there is that great guide from typikal, it finally seems do able.

My question its, beyond freezing/deleting bloatware, what do you guys do with your rooted phones? What features do some of the more popular roms offer? I really like stock android, would that be a mistake to root and just run a vanilla 2.3.3 rom?

Thanks for all the responses and information, I think I'm getting a handle on this android stuff finally.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncaissie:
My only reason for Rooting was because the memory sucks and I needed to move my games to the SD card. I don’t pirate and I don't just install anything do to the high malware rates.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LususNaturae:
I only do it so I can get rid of all the useless pre-installed crap that comes on the phone

I hate having stuff I don't use

And so I can use quick reboot apps :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kershner25:
Thanks for the replies. What can you guys tell me about the more popular roms, like Cyanogen? What extra features would this rom bring to the table that I would presumably want?

And, is it even possible to flash to a stock 2.3.3 rom on the R800x?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncaissie:
I haven't tried the ROMs yet. I'm waiting for them to be more complete.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
Rooting means to have complete control about how your OS works (note: OS, not device). It is something that we as users should demand to have toggled/toggleable by default, at least if we have bought the phone without carrier subsidies. After all, we have root access over the personal computers we buy, and we buy them without subsidies either. Smartphones are personal computers with phone capabilities, so they should not be any different in that aspect.

Extra features usually allowed by rooting, plus customised ROMs are moving all apps to SD, overclocking, wifi tethering, system-wide backups (that is, to safely back up all your phone's data) and so on. Note that you need to unlock your bootloaders as well, for custom ROMs to be installed.

Note that you don't need root to pirate anything.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncaissie:
I agree with logseman that we should have full access without worrying about warranties.

But on the other have there are a lot of noobs that will screw everything up. lol

Although screwing things up is how we learn in the first place.

Edit: Something as simple as taking a screen shot or disabling the auto brightness should not require root access. (Root access is basically the Administrator account in Linux.)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
We screw up our PC's in a daily basis and noone will close the software. The reason why people have no control over their device is that the one giving the subsidy (the carrier) is the real end customer of the phone.

Hello to all!

This is my first post at xda so good day to you all:) I'm an Android dev and a lurker for some time, and now it's time to speak up since I've bought myself my own SGS2 which I already rooted and heavily modified.

My question is: I have a Kia Ceed and I can't make the Galaxy S2 to work with it as a source of music. The car's stereo isn't recognized as a PC so I can't turn on the USB transfer mode. Is there any way to force the phone to turn on the USB transfer mode regardless of what's it's connected to?

Thanks

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Have you tried...

settings > wireless and networks > usb utilities > connect storage to pc?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monoik:
Nope, that does nothing. The car's lcd says 'reading' but nothing happens on the phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
In that case, I think you might be stuck with having your music on your SD card and using a card reader!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
Nope, if you are using Stock ROM, it does not use a standard USB ATAPI driver.

CM7 has a USB Storage mode which when turned on, should work. Since it uses a standard USB ATAPI driver.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
try settings\ applications \ development \ click usb debugging.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monoik:
As I mentioned, i'm a dev, so USB debuging is constantly on. ;)

Thanks. I'm not sure if I'm ready to jump in the CyanogenMod bandwagon just yet, especially since it's still in it's early stages. But that's a solution!

The idea is to reduce te number of devices, not to multiply it. :cool:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
A card reader on your car keyring is hardly increasing the number of devices! Just offering a suggestion.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bacardiandwatermelon:
Before going to cm7, i'm pretty sure i had to turn debugging off to get the usb to work.

You do, but it tells you that when you turn USB storage on.
