[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kat-CeDe:
Hi,

I use Sipdroid for a while now and I am quite sure that incoming calls reached my X10 in 1.6 or 2.1 or 2.2. Today I made a test and an outgoing call worked perfect but I did not get a notice about an incoming call. Sipdroid showed with a green dot that it is connected. Is this normal?

Can Sipdroid interfere with the build in client? Is it better to use the build in client? Can I use a stun server with the built in client? I need stun because of my provider. How can I get incoming calls over sipdroid?

Tanks in advance Ralf

I've actually have two questions. I want to use my S2 as navigation in my car. I've heard about free apps for offline navigation. Anyone know a name of one? Internet abroad costs tons of money but i'd like to be able to use my phone as navigation when i'm going on holiday as well.

Secondly, i want to buy a carholder, but i was wondering if it is bad for the phone to put it up to the window in the full sun for a couple hours :S. Or should i find a different spot out of the sun? And how close to a window does the phone need to be so it is able to receive the gps signal.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Esspee_London:
Try Brodit in car holder, mounted on Brodit ProClip. Check to see if ProClip for your car is suited for your use.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MasterTJ:
Thank you very much, my car actually has a thing like proclip installed and i can probably install it there. I'm just gonna test first if it has good signal on that spot.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] entomologist:
Hello, I have phone for navigation attaching with sucction mount before tachometer. I do not need look on tachometer (i have ears) and there is phone perfectly preserved, perfectly visible (no sun reflextions) and in field of view. GPS signal is very goog in my peugeot in this position. Just an idea...

Aura Navigation

Hi,

With Aura Navigation you can use navigation online or offline.‎
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MasterTJ:
Hmm nice creative solution, i'll take a look into that as well tnx.

And tnx for the navigation app tip :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ekoandrew:
I use Sygic Navigation, works perfectly, only tat need to pay for monthly.

as long as maps are up to date, that i do not get lost, willing to pay for the monthly.

other than reading people comment how crappy freeware navigation with no up to date maps.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ThaiM:
+1 for Sygic. Best interface and map so far... I'm waiting for Tom Tom to get off their butts and finally release something for Android already. I normally use Tom Tom but would rather use it from my device instead of having 2 devices mounted on my dash.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ohamn:
Check out Google Maps Navigation!

Take a look at the new version of Google Maps Navigation.

It works really well. AND according to Google Maps you can

"pre cache" maps for the route you will be taking. (It's a "Beta" feature)

I haven't tried pre caching myself (I have a good dataplan! :p ) but it should work!? If anyone has tried this feature, please let the rest of us know! ;)

I have tried to install Navigon (yes a cracked version, I'm a bad person) and it just will not work! (suit you right, you bad person!! :D ).

So I stick to Google Maps for now and it works fine for me!

If I have helped you, please push the thanks button!

// Ohamn
[Galaxy S II Accessories] entomologist:
Sygic is great but not usable in Balkans and some parts of eastern Europe (problem with Teleatlas map coverage). Use android navigation in those parts of Europe the only way is use cracked Igo My way because it is not possible purchase it legally, just alltogether with some devices. However it works great.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MasterTJ:
I've got a good data plan as well, but the main reason i need something else then google maps is for trips abroad. And the precache is super, but i want to be prepared for situations in which i get lost and of my route. I think google maps than has a problem.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciriman:
Hello everyone,

I installed the "Revolver" ROM very well. big problem that seems to be for all the tablet devices that mount Android, poor or worse support JavaScript in Web pages. Bad! All animations are horrible. Pop-ups rarely interpreted correctly, often do not open.

The current trend in web pages is to replace Flash with javasscript, but Android in tablet (where web is the strong point) does not seem to think this defect so obvious! I appeal to you the greatest experts in the hope of making this tool useful for professional web design and webmasters.

Currently I can not show my sites with my teblet because JavaScript animations suck! :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msticninja:
Have you tried with other browsers like Opera, Dolphin HD, etc? I do Flash, so i don't have much experience with java on android, beyond the flash containers.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciriman:
Yes, of course.

I tried the best browser for Android, they all have the same problem (more or less), no one correctly interprets the animations. Falsh including some animation, these look ugly! There are serious problems with motion tweens and fades.

What I do not tolerate it and conceive why some phones with the most basic systems or android2.2 see the animation considerably better!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciriman:
I hope sooner or later solve management javascip animations. The fatal flaw of the Android project
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnesus:
You should submit it as an issue to the android but tracker. I personaly didn't experience the problem you describe. Also if even in Opera (which uses their own engine) has this problem, then it could be sth with your software. Have you tried rebooting or different ROM?

i have a wildfire with android 2.2.1 and build no.2.25.720.1

do i have to downgrade it before rooting it by Unrevoked3?if yes then plz tel me how to downgrade..
[Xoom General] cruzin_cruzing:
Well not completely but compared to the other tablets Dev sections it does seem quite dormant. Just look at the Transformer or the Acer Inconia. There hasn't been much activity here besides a few mods but not any full releases.
[Xoom General] StrifeSoldierVII:
Mmm... this topic has been brought up so so so many times...

It's hard to do anything when Google is keeping the Honeycomb source locked up. As far as I know the other Honeycomb tablets have been modified by the manufacturing company to alter certain parts of the Android OS and such, thus allowing for a bit more flexibility when it comes to development.

As far as the Xoom goes, it's the only official pure stock vanilla Google experience tablet, and Google is keeping it locked down without further notice. It's assumed that they will be ready to fully release the source for everything when Ice Cream Sandwich launches in the near future.

If the devs could use magic, they would. Until then... we must wait for ICS. The Xoom is Google's baby, as it was the first of it's kind to start the dawn of the Honeycomb era. When they are good and ready, the development scene for the Xoom will skyrocket in short notice. Trust me.
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Also, the only other thing the developers can try besides just tweaking stuff is port the Galaxy Tab 10.1's Touch Wiz Rom to the Xoom. But it's a step back as it's only Android 3.1 while we are already on 3.2.
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
Someone should get a job at Google and leak the Honeycomb source and then quit. That would be epic.
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha I agree.
[Xoom General] bpick:
Also the other devices are incorporating Xoom or Galaxy bits and catching up. This is the problem with the device officially having the newest OS out there. The will be a day when the Xooms' longevity will be evident.

As for now we have the latest and greatest already. It is hard for us flashoholics but there's a reason so much is going on with the Asus and Acer. They needed help hence the Xoom and Galaxy ports. Its lonely at the top. By the way we have Tiamat which in my opinion is the gold standard.
[Xoom General] Nickchapstick:
I'm a flashaholic. Good thing I have my thunderbolt or I would go into withdrawls.

[Xoom General] okantomi:
+1 Very well said.
[Xoom General] hammer4203:
Ok I only see one issue. Has anyone tested a usb burner? What else is there that we can't already do?
[Xoom General] StrifeSoldierVII:
Fully sourced custom Roms. That's what everybody is looking for. With that you would have new features, tweaks, and abilities that a stock Rom would never give you in a million years. Tiamat is the gold standard and the other devices wish they had them on their side. The team is just amazing to have created a modified stock Rom experience that works better than default stock. And when they are able to create fully customized fully sourced custom Roms... a loss for words... ;)
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Don't feel to bad because the other devices roms are usually referenced to our stock roms.
[Xoom General] Arun01:
Yep i love Hammerhead!!!
[Xoom General] Psychokitty:
Awesome! How they don't realize from the past with Android custom devs how much further android could be catapulted past the competition I just don't know.

I also don't get how people are so quick to hop on the latest updates when, even without the source being released, previous versions customers by devs blow away whatever little appetizers Google farts out to us.

Anyhow, I gotta say the Xoom has come an awful long way considering the SC hasn't even been released.

Devs are friggin awesome!
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
Imagine if the source was out. Xoom sales would jump tenfold.

[Xoom General] Vistaus:
"That's what everybody is looking for."

And you know that how? I'm one of those "everybody" and I'm not looking for that. I'm looking for someone to take over Ubuntu-development. Even Asus EEE, Acer Iconia and Samsung Galaxy Tab have Ubuntu-ROMS, but we have some crap-ass VNC-Ubuntu. If they can do it (especially considering the Asus EEE and Acer Iconia have the same Tegra 2), then it should be possible for us too. That is what I'm looking for, so don't talk for everybody please.
[Xoom General] StrifeSoldierVII:
It's just a general statement, not literally meaning every single person. It's just something one says, and it's not meant to be taken literally as an individual. But ok: "A lot" of people are looking forward to the fully sourced, and full customization from a true custom Rom. And generally speaking... the first thing the average root user thinks of are the custom Roms when they hear the term "source code". Ultimately that's what it would mean when the source code is released. The devs will then have the proper tools to start developing new custom Roms. They will then begin to flood the market in due time with new and unique Roms, as was the same with the OG Droid.
[Xoom General] kcrudup:
There- FTFY.
[Xoom General] skantman69:
You can only milk the same cow so many times, until more cows come along this rom release is milked out.
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Well I'm sure it's a valid point for you, but being a casual Android user who roots, having an Ubuntu based rom makes no sense to me. I admit I don't even know what an Ubuntu rom is for. Is it something like porting Windows OS into the tablet? If so, I doubt many users care for something like this since rom development to them is more about tweaking, optimizing, themeing and adding functions to an Android based rom. Porting other OSes is a lot more niche and caters to a smaller group of users.

So since the Honeycomb source is indefinitely locked up by Google, themed and overclocked Honeycomb is as good as we can get for now. The next best thing to wait for is Samsung to update the Galaxy Tab 10.1 to Honeycomb 3.2 and we'll probably get Touch Wiz ported over.
[Xoom General] solarnz:
Source... yeah it makes stuff easier, but nothings impossible without it.

Queue next rom teases:

Note: This is not the final product and will look different when we release.
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Wow just wow. The quick settings look sick. And volume settings!!!

Awesome. Who says development is dead?
[Xoom General] kettlecorn:
I've been trying to do some research as to whether or not I should get a xoom or a transformer or galaxy tab. I wanted the galaxy tab but its way to expensive so decided against it. It's between the Asus transformer and the Xoom right now. Anyway point being, during this research I was researching the development and community size, and I dont think the Xoom development is dead. In fact, it appears its more alive than the other forums including the Toshiba Thrive, Galaxy tab (granted they just got released). The activity on the Asus transformer seems to be abundant in addressing the problems of defective units or the weird lack of quality control such as the speakers and audio voodoo driver something, (IDK what that is). It looks like in terms of root, every tablet has root. In terms of ROMS, every tablet has about 2 good useable ones. So i think all the android tablets on HC are really on the same level in terms of development just waiting for source. The investment would be in the actual hardware of your choice. But I also have to say the Xoom development potential seems a lot higher, like once source or ICS is released, it'll skyrocket and lead in development over the other tabs. Just my observation.

p.s that quick settings looks awesome.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duiker101:
An user spotted that my apps uses a lot of CPU due to the fact that it downloads a lot of images and to do so it uses separate threads.

I think i can lower this CPU Consumption by making each thread download more images, less threads = less CPU. maybe, i do not yet know, that's not my problem.

My real question is the following:

to monitor the app i use "System Tuner", once i start the app it downloads the images and it uses the CPU, ok, on this process CPU consumption might get to almost 50% (!), but why when this process is finished the CPU Consumption does SLOWLY decrease it's value? Should i worry about this values?

This process can take up to a couple of minutes it's not the whole app, when this process is not running CPU Consumption can be 3/5 %

Thanks

Don't kill me, I have to know.

Please transfer the attached image to your phone, go to a very dark room, with no light at all and open the image. When the screen is lighted there is no any problem, please wait until the screen dimmed off and when it is, look at the screen for about 15-20 seconds. Do you see black spots on the more pale background? look at it close to the screen.

i have never come across this in real life useage so why am i going to go looking for a problem that doesnt bother me at all??

id much rather download some more apps , do some social networking , use the camera , stream some 1080p video , use the dlna , maybe mess with some roms , try some kernels , transfer some files via usb2go rather then go looking for a problem that i havent noticed in 2-3 months useage :-)

if it bothers you get in touch with samsung but its not really a major issue is it?? no one else has noticed in daily useage and i doubt many peeps are going to want to go and look for problems id much rather enjoy my phone :-)

hope you get it sorted if it bothers you mate and hope you have a nice day
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
No thanks, I'll pass.

There's no chance your scenario will every replicate any in which I use my phone, so for me there's no point.

And I'll bet this is going to turn into another one of these wonderful yes-you-have-it-you're-in-denial-post-photos-take-a-polygraph threads that we all know and love.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
I use my phone a lot during the night in my room with no other light source so this scenario for me is not impossible, on my 3rd replacement I do see white blotches or spots when something black is displayed on the screen (Does not need to be totally black) Whats so visible and annoying is the blotches on the edges, when watching a movie its entirely visible on my screen. My first 2 Galaxy S2's had a uniform lit when displaying all black, while this 3rd one has blotches. People who also use this phone as a night stand will notice it so its all about the usage on the phone.

I believe this is the one they call finger prints behind the screen.. Not sure though..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tainka:
I noticed it accidentally when turned off the phone and plugged in the charger in a dark room. It is not only spots but stripes also.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
Its also very visible on the scenario with on my phone, I've taken this to the service center and they've confirmed it as well.. Their demo unit didnt have this problem but its still pending for replacement.

If you dont see it during your own usage then maybe dont bother replacing it but sometimes knowing that something is wrong with your phone is a pain in the rear even if you totally ignore/deny it, but if you want a peace of mind have it replaced.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tainka:
You are right, it is annoying, but I afraid to receive something even worse. How did you manage to show this problem in the service center?

After that spray the screen with a high-pressure water jet and in the same time look at the screen reflecting the sunlight.

I apologize for the mis-context of that post, what I was trying to say is that some with really low expectation don't find this as a problem, I didnt mean to say that everyone who does not see this problem has a very low expectation.

Agree, if by your usage your not affected by the problem then dont bother chances are theres gonna be another issue with the replacement phone, on my end im a bit unlucky though as its very visible on the edges, looks like backlight bleeding :(
