In case you don't check your inbox:

How do I theme without CHANGING XMLs?

That means how can I theme something by only adding XMLs, and not changing XMLs in framework-res/values/ ?

Thanks.

PS: I want to use it for a metamorph ICS theme
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] playya:
I would have to agree that this is a very intuitive guide and I searched for a while before coming across this. I do have a question though, I am on OS 2.3.6 and was trying to change the date color on my Epic Touch which comes with a horrible grey for the clock. I tried your method but it does not seem to take effect. Would you happen to know if I need to make a change elsewhere.

Thx in Advance for your help...
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mDroidd:
Are you sure? Also make sure to push the modified framework-res hea ;P

I believe that this it's a reported problem with that ROM, read the roms thread in development section

Yes, it is not there. The Developers mentioned that it was draining battery hence they had removed it.

Hello

I own T-mobile mome (probablly alcatel OT 908) and internal memory is very low. I would like uinstal some apps . I supposed that Titanium backup would be enough but if i want to uninstal some preinstaled app Titanium backup says "APK file cannot be found"

Do you know any other solution (android 2.2)

thank you

[General Questions and Answers] mortisia:
I have the same problem

Hello,

I also have an Alcatel OT-908 and I had the same problem as you. What I did was root the phone using Gingerbreak v1.2, and then I installed an application called AndroidMate. With the program's File Explorer option you can go to /custpack/app and delete any unnecessary applications. Be careful not to delete anything useful though, and it is always a good idea to backup first. However, this is only a partial solution to your problem (and mine as well). I still get low memory warnings and the only other solution I could find on the net for people with similar problems (on different phones) was to install a custom rom. I've posted a question in the General Q&A forum,if you find a custom rom that supports Alcatel 908 please share it with the rest of us.

Hi, has anyone had the problem where certain keys on your keyboard randomly don't work but the keys around it do? I have to turn the screen off a few times to get it to work again. It happens very often, is there any fix? This is the first android phone that I've had a issue with the keyboard with. (nexus one and g2 were fine)

Using Gingeritis (beta IV) (Happens on the other roms too) and smart keyboard pro (tried the gingerbread keyboard same problem)

Thanks
[Thunderbolt General] johnnysyeah:
I get this problem too.

I've noticed it on all of the ROMs I've used.

Doesn't matter if it's stock keyboard, SwiftKey, or SlideIT, I still get that problem.
[Thunderbolt General] XfrostX:
yeah its very annoying, makes me just want to get a new phone haha, anyone have a solution??

[Thunderbolt General] Milimbar:
Double check that you are not accidentally resting your finger on one of the touch buttons on the phone. i had this problem when i first got my Thunderbolt and realized it was how i was holding the phone.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
I've noticed this too, and like the person above me said, its usually because my hand barely rests on the search button. I guess its far enough off that it doesn't register it as touching the button, but still a part of the touch screen? Either way, moving my hand fixes it.
[Thunderbolt General] davidbudd1:
My buddy had this problem where the screen was unresponsive and he called VZW about it and they acknowledged that it is a known problem. Sorry dont know a fix but apparently VZW knows about it.
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
for me, the problem hasnt been a key on the keyboard not working, but lits of times when i am in the middle of typing, the keyboard will disappear & when i bring it up again, the cursor will be in a completely different place.

additionally, sometimes when i press on a link nothing will happen. ill have to press 2-3 times before it registers. and as with the unresponsive key issue, this is also with any rom.

the cursor issue though seems to be worse on aosp roms.
[Thunderbolt General] Br0wNb0y:
I get this issue as well. It is VERY frustrating. I'm using swiftkey

So will they replace phones? It's hella annoying.
[Thunderbolt General] davidbudd1:
They did offer to swap it for him. He is a unique case though, he is on his fourth or fifth tb. he has called vzw so many times and complained about his phone, they are going to give him a bionic when it comes out. so he declined the swap, but it was offered.
[Galaxy S II General] danieldeanhodge:
I recently purchased a Mugen 3200mah extended battery (very good by the way) and put it in my phone. Today my phone kept making the "beep beep" noise to indicate that it's charging. I looked at it and it kept popping this message on and off. I thought this was pretty odd, and I've not really done anything to do the phone for a week. Last thing I did was flash Cognition ROM. I assumed the battery was at fault so put my stock battery in but I get issues with that battery as well. Strangely, I get different problems with both batteries.

With the Mugen, my phone keeps reading as "Charging" on and off, and if you turn the phone off, it'll bring up that big battery that you see normally when charging the phone in an off state.

With the stock battery, the phone will immediately turn itself on if you turn it off.

If I only had the issue with a stock battery and didn't own the extended battery then I wouldn't care, but I spent a fair amount of money on the extended battery and it gives me a lot more life, so I intend to carry on using it if I can. Does anybody have any ideas about this? I'm thinking of flashing a stock ROM and seeing if the problem still occurs but I'd rather try other ideas first as this requires me to delete all my apps AGAIN.

I've tried my extended battery in my mum's SGS2 and the problem doesn't happen. So it's something in my phone. Either hardware or software. Almost certainly hardware. :(
[Galaxy S II General] StupidIdea:
Some people report weird behavior with non stock batteries. But it can also be USB port problem as described in this thread:

Hey all,

I have tried out several ROMs during the past days and, it seems, I came across a strange thing I can not solve. My problem is that I am not able to use my wifi network at home and at work if using Kuyadroid 3.149 or GingerDx v10 ROMs, but it works if using the stock ROM or FroyoBread 023b. However, I was able to connect other free wifi hotspots in the town with all ROMs.

Wifi router at home: Zyxel P-600 series

I tried with enabled and disabled encryption.

Tried 802.11g, 802.11b, 802.11g+ and mixed options

The phone connects, but there is no traffic at all with Kuyadroid 3.149 or GingerDx v10, but it works w/o problems with Froyobread.

Wifi at work:

With Froyobread, I am able to connect using LEAP Wifi Free app from the Android market, but it does not work with Kuyadroid 3.149 nor with GingerDx v10 ROMs.

I would like to use the Kuyadroid or GingerDx, but I am not able to solve this issue. Is there some difference between these ROMs which could cause this behavior?

Any advise would be appreciated.

PS: I always wipe out everyting when installing a new ROM, including Dalvik etc..

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] typhoonikan:
A best friend and I went to best buy last night just to check out the flyer and see how functional it would be for us- We both being educators and need to present in a easy way.

I got on the Flyer and went to google, searched a math pdf worksheet and pulled it up to see how it would look. It was quite small. Even zooming in, I wasn't sure I would have enough room to annotate or work a problem.

The biggest issue, which is why I put pen malfunction in the title, is that while writing, the pen kept writing even when I lifted from writing letters. I didn't have to even touch the screen to write. The result was my name writtin in print, but without the pen being lifted. Very messy and not functional.

Perhaps this was just a glitch? I looked and looked for settings on calibration or adjustments, i didn't find any.

Was this just a malfunction?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Farsquidge:
Probably you were using an old firmware and were used to using the iPout pen....!

This is a true digitizing input, still needs development, but better than anything else out there!.....:rolleyes:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] pardonmyfreedom:
Yeah, I've seen this happen a few times with my pen. Sometimes it will still write with the pen just barely above the surface. I find that this tends to happen more as the pen battery wears down. If you unscrew the pen back, disconnecting the battery and essentially resetting the pen, it works fine again. Nothing to really worry about. Considering that you looked at a display model, it's very likely the pen battery is getting low.

Also, if you find the text on the screen too small, it may make sense to wait for the 10" Puccini tablet which will sport Scribe technology as well.

Hi,

here's my third app, for Mango devices.

"Birthdays7 - a birthdays reminder

With this app, you will never forget a birthday! You'll have a easy and smart app to see all birthdays, listed along the time.

Here are the main functions:

- Birthdays from Phone, Outlook (so Exchange and/or gmail if you have set up account on phone), Windows Live contacts and facebook friends!

- Smart UI to see the birthdays

- Live Tile to know if there are birthdays today

- English and French interface

- Direct access to send sms, call, email, facebook depending on informations from your phone (tap on a birthday item to show the popup)

-- Trial mode -- is fully functional but with ads. Buy the app for remove ads and get new feature before the others.

Help: For facebook data, you need to activate once the option in settings, and follow the sign-in/authorization process. That's easy :)

If you like it, let a review, and ask for new features!

Version history:

v1.5 : (under market certification)

-NEW: updated design, better UI

-NEW: move settings to a new page, more settings available

-NEW: post to facebook function

(version 1.1 to 1.4 were not public)

v1.0 : first public release "

v2.0 is already on is way, adding great functions ...

Thanks for your reports. :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Budniu:
Good job, work perfect:D (+1)

I think that birthdays should be displayed starting today, not since the beginning of the year (I think you understand what I mean). If you could do other languages ​​including Polish;) - I might translate it, only I need a file containing text to be translated.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
Thanks Budniu.

I understand your comment, that's seems good. I will add option for sorting order I think.

For translation, thanks! I'll send you a text file tomorrow ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Budniu:
Ok I wait for your file (budniu@plusnet.pl) and for new version apps with sorted events.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
Hi Budniu,

I just sent you an email with the file.

For others translations, and to fix my poor english, anyone wants to help?

Download the attached file (english one). Open it with a text editor (if you have any good text editor like PSPad, NotePad++, … you can rename the file as xxx.xml to have xml syntax extension). In the file, texts to translate are between xml tag like:

<data name="reminderContent" xml:space="preserve">

<value>{0} is {1} today.</value>

<comment>{name} is {age} today</comment>

</data>

Here you translate the value string “{0} is {1} today.” Be care to not remove anything between {}, because it’s a variable (you can look comment to help understand the sentence)

Thanks to helpers ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Budniu:
THX buddy, I translate tomorrow, today I go to bed, sr.

For the date format, it must use system setting. I'll check if something is wrong.

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Budniu:

Moreover, I couldn't set the polish marketplace page, I don't know why. Can you tell me if you can see the correct description page in your language (and that app is in polish too)? Thanks in advance

One important missing features is anniversaries.

Can you add them too ?

thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
Hi decebal,

what do you mean by "anniversaries" ?? Because this is exactly what it does, it shows birthdays (I'm not good at english but anniversaries is the same meaning as birthday, isn't it ?)

Do you mean add a birth date for contacts that don't have the data?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] buffalosolja42:
I think he/she may be talking about anniversaries for special events (marriage, work, etc.)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
Ok I understand the difference between anniversarie and birthday now! Thanks buffalosolja42

I'll have a look to the data, but decibal or buffalosolja42, in case of marriage, where do you set the information in a contact? your wife contact? I think in outlook contacts, you can set a lot a data ... ok I'll really need to have a look :)

If you can explain more what you want, I could check to add that feature.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Budniu:
Anniversaries settings:

- open contact from contacts base,

- tap "edit" (pencil),

- tap "edit Windows live",

- tap add "others",

- and here tap "anniversaries" - set date, confirm and go out.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
OK I've tested on my phone (I had to wait for the Mango final update :) )

It shouldn't be hard to add that data. I'll try to add that for the 1.7
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
Hi guys (and girls?!)

2 news, one good and one bad:

-the bad: sorry I can't get anniversaries. I can't read that data, the current SDK do not give acces to the field "anniversarie"

-the good: I've finished my new tile system. Now on the front you'll get today birthdays counter. And on the back side, you'll get info for the next birthdays to come. I love the live tiles, that really a big feature on Windows Phone.

I'll post 1.7 tomorrow, but don't expect it public on marketplace before next week, MS doesn't test apps during the weekend :8
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] P@nos:

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Gorki247:
Downloaded and purchased this app today as it does exactly what I need from a Birthday reminder app. Excellent work.

The only thing that annoys me a bit is those penguins in the background. Based on the screenshots in the OP, I assumed that you could have a plain black background which I would find a lot more appealing.

Am I missing something and is there any way to change the background? If not, could this please be an option in the next release?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] TheBeO:
hello Gorki247,

yes I've changed that with the v2. But you're not the only one to ask that option. So in the next minor release, I will add an option to customize the background as you want (black, app default, or your own background)
