[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxN3k0x:
Hello,

Whiten the past few days i've been dabbling with different ROMs in order to achieve a few features with my vibrant SGH-T959. I'm essentially looking for some more lock screens and a transparent notification bar. I recently flashed SensatioN_ROM and it has some issue upon boot (Rainbow lines, once I drained the battery to calibrate it wouldn't boot back up, flashed back to stock with Odin).

Is there anywhere to add lockscreens built for the vibrant after flashing CWK?

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and sorry If this thread is in the wrong place.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rel500:
I would like the HTC SENSATION lockscreen to be ported over. There's an app called agile lock but porting it into a Rom would be awesome!
[HTC Sensation] knobgoo:
Some of you that have a Sensation with an AUO (Acer) screen are familiar with the ghosting and the flickering which occurs, it's especially noticeable if you've had a Sharp screen. Question is, do you think that this is something which can be fixed with a software update, or is it simply a hardware issue? I'm on my third Sensation due to various problems and don't really want to do another warranty exchange if there may be a possible software fix, however, the ghosting/flickering is really starting to annoy me. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] knobgoo:
Anyone have any insight into this?
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
Well, this is a hardware problem. You can try to avoid white text on black background if you want it to be less noticeable. But there is no real fix

Updated sdk and stopped working. Tried to reinstall and now the installer won't recognize JDK. Need a previous version of SDK if anyone has it and can post in a zip. Tbd.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
if by you cant get adb to work in tools anymore, you need to work out of platform-tools, and or bring the adb files over to tools so you can work out of that if u prefer.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] helowrenchturn2:
The problem is that I can't get SDK to install. It keeps asking for JDK even though I've installed JDK multiple times. Should have just left it alone and kept the working version I had. Lol

Hey guys,

So I've been noticing that the EC05 roms like to advertise being ciq free, but the newer Eg22 and EH06 roms don't seem to say anything about removing said spy software. Is it safe to assume that these roms are ciq free, or should I just stick with EC05 if I want my privacy?...

Sent from my private SPH-D700 adjutant.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
CIQ is disabled by default. The real worry is that in future devices it may not be. That said, there is a great amount of effort towards removing it unlikely to be applied towards gb until we have an official release.

Why the concern if it is disabled?

After all, you can jump ship back to a non-CIQ ROM if it ever gets turned on, but in the meantime, you could enjoy the latest builds w/o any worries

Yup. Nobody'll ever see that data (except a bored IT guy who'd get fired if he admitted to looking) unless you actually do something illegal which requires it to be reviewed. Or a terrorist. Or you pissed off a fed.

But I doubt anyone will see the data before it's deleted after however long they have to keep it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getut:
The way I understand it, the fact that it is "off" in current ROMS is very misleading.

The LOCAL logging is turned off, but the system is still very much active doing what Sprint intends it to do and is most assuredly not under the control of the owner of the phone.

That is simply not acceptable. I wish the press would get hold of that information and shame the company into removing it. This type of cr@p needs to be halted... there needs to be some type of consumer protection that slaps companies that lock us out of our own electronics and put software in that allows control without our acceptance or acknowledgement. People just simply do not get pissed off enough about it and the lack of uproar allows it to keep going.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangaji:
I don't much mind GOOGLE knowing everything about me. At least they are upfront about that fact. But, as I recall, CIQ is a SPRINT app, and SPRINT has kept CIQ's existence on the down low. It's bad enough that they behave as if my phone is still their property such that they reserve the right/ability to watch what I do, I don't like that they are so secretive about it.

If they're so secretive about this, who knows what OTHER things they've got on the backburners, eh?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rygran87:
CIQ was a drain on battery and resources. Spyware? Maybe. But I don't know that I want out on my phone even if it isn't. AOSP is the best.

I just installed Synergy. I rather like the sense 3.0 rom. Something weird tho, I changed my ringtone from the default one as well as the notification tone. Every time it rings it plays a different tone than the one one its set to ring. Also while I'm asking Noob questions, does the stock synergy rom kernel support underclocking?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
How did you change the ringtone? As you may not know, you need to change the ringtone you want for notifications in the app you want to use. I.e. if you want to change the text ringtone, you need to set it in the text app itself, not through the android settings.

And for your second question, yes, you can underclock without a special kernal. I'm running Synergy RC2 and can underclock with SetCPU. You just need a special kernal to overclock, not underclock.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingphreak13:
ah thank you. changing in the app itself did the trick!

Let's say someone asked to use my phone, is there a way to set up a phone-only mode where they only have access to the phone dialer?

I know about those App-protector apps that require passwords to open apps, but I'm looking for something else.
[Motorola Droid X2] nitwit:
It would have to run at init or else someone could bypass by pulling the battery/rebooting the phone. Maybe hijack the emergency dial mode (when launched from the pin input screen) to display the dialer?
[Motorola Droid 3] Tanalark:
I'm using a Rocketfish RF-EX7 with my Verizon Droid 3, and yesterday, I started having problems with the bluetooth headset spontaneously disconnecting from the phone and refusing to re-pair until I turn off BT and turn it back on, and do the same with my headset.

I'm not sure what I did to cause this to start happening, but it's incredibly annoying. Any ideas on what might have caused it and how to fix it?
[Motorola Droid 3] slow88lx:
I don't have any answers for you, but I was having the same problem on Saturday. I had used it without issues for weeks and then boom. It wasn't even consistent with how long it would work either. ~5 minutes a couple times then ~25 minutes before it cut out.

I was hoping it was just a fluke until I read this.

[HTC EVO 3D] CelticNinja:
So, I followed the instructions in the thread to add the new Swype from the Nexus S that was enabled for rooted devices. It's working....ish (typing this thread up with it as we speak).

The issue I'm having, is that the keyboard doesn't take up the whole bottom half of the screen. There's a vertical bar of color that matches the screen I'm currently on, on either side of the keyboard.

I'm wondering one of two things:

1. Is it because I'm on a "De-Sensified" room? (Running Supra 1.4.1)

2. Is it just not stretching because of the different screen resolutions?

It's a great version of Swype, and I'll keep using it until the official one drops, but I was just curious...

I got a copy of Swype.apk and libSwypeCore(whatever).so from my co-worker's evo 3d (non-rooted) and placed it in my phone (rooted). It works. I'll update a zip tomorrow, unless someone else beats me to it.

[EVO 4G General] Notorious:
You should put all roms on the root of the SD card. On the root of the SDcard means not in any folders
[EVO 4G General] infamousteeboy:
Why? On the root...

They don't have to be on the root of your SD Card at all actually they can be in a folder I do it all the time and I usually flash from the download folder I think they say put it on the root so its a lil easier to find cuz usually you have a bunch of folders on your SD and the perfect way to NOT forget where you left the zip file you downloaded is to put it on the root of your SD Cars that's what I think..

Well its actually recommended to do a full wipe of everything but the SD Card to prevent any problems with the ROM itself depending on your recovery I can help what recovery do you have?
