If you're coming from MS Outlook there are two extremely useful tools made by Google to get you started:

1) Google App Migration for MS Outlook http://tools.google.com/dlpage/outlookmigration

Which will migrate your MS Outlook contacts/calendar and emails to your new google account.

2) Google calendar sync http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=89955

Which will enable you to continue to sync your MS Outlook and google calendars should you choose, or can simply be used to migrate your MS Outlook calendar to google calendar. It performs three types of sync (2-way, 1-way : Google to outlook and 1-way Outlook to Google (great for the initial migration)) so you can continue to use both calendars if you wish.

There are dozens of ways to do this and many third party, I'm sure that everyone has a way thats suits them that they'll recommend, this is mine.

Basically you sync your OUTLOOK with Google using Google calendar sync and then Sync your phone to Google.

For some reason when I try to play videos on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 they keep coming out choppy and pixilated. I tried the default player, Mobo, and RockPlayer, and the videos still come out all pixilated and choppy. I tried putting a few movies on there last night like Inception, The Dark Knight, and Limitless and they were all choppy and pixilated. I used .avi, .mp4, and .m4v formats, none of which worked. I even tried downloading vids encoded specifically to work on mobile devices such as iPod/PSP and they didn't work. I even downloaded HandBrake for Mac and followed the directions on Cnet and nothing played properly. Everything played choppy and pixilated on all the players.

A Google search showed that MANY people are all having the same problem, so I don't think it is an isolated issue with my specific Tab. How the hell can I play videos clearly on my Tab??? :confused:

Use the low profile settings for handbrake from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1060825

Or use the Samsung Kies software and let it automatically convert the video for you when you transfer it to your device (handbrake is faster and slightly better quality imo).

Or as has been suggested already, try DicePlayer from the market and see if it works with your files.

Nah, no marketing here. Been on forums for a long time (Google my full name) and I hear what you say... sorry for misunderstanding. I'm an old member on doom9, they are hardcore video people.

Heh, I was on Doom9 when Doom9 the dude was still a regular, and Gej was still pounding on DivX 3.11. Old times, eh.

As for MeGUI, it's not the only front-end around. If you're on Doom9, then you know better. Most do basically the same thing, which is to run x264.dll plus some processing via AVISynth. Each front-end has its own strengths and weaknesses.

Despite its dinosaur interface, Handbrake is still more user friendly than MeGUI or most front-ends, and it does the job more than well enough. The auto-IVTC works well.

MeGUI allows more manual fiddling, as of course do most geek tools. It's been around a while, and there are newer "geek" front-ends with better UI. But for the hardcore, the "only way" is to ignore front-ends and use the tools directly, ie x264.exe and AVISynth, and write scripts as needed.

Check out my "conversion" script below. It's a geek tool geared for noobs (only one menu), but is infinitely adjustable for geeks. The script is only a text file, after all.

I totally agree with you, MeGUI is a pro tool not intended for the novice user. However, as you said it so well, you can't beat MeGUI's customization levels allowing you to achieve amazing results.

[Atrix 4G General] humzat:
Hi all;

so over the last few months i have flashed many custom roms, kernels etc...and always had battery issues...i have tried jugs battery fix, wiping battery stats..following many other battery optimization threads..but i never got the battery life i once had (when i first bought my phone)...

a few days ago my phone totally crashed..wouldnt charge etc..and i ended up having to do a complete restore..i did this by following these instructions

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRFJJFW-XxI

....so from there, i unlocked again, reloaded CWM etc and i loaded 2.3.4 flashable zip (found in the forums) via CWM.

and voila..battery life AMAZING....after 8hours im usually still at 85%...by evening time after using the phone all day im still at about 60%

from here do what you want with roms..

i loaded the alien rom without adding the themes..and the battery life is as stated above..

so if you are having issues try hard resetting the phone then re unlocking the BL and upgrading via cwm to 2.3.4

my battery life i back to amazing.....

p.s. would be great if someone else who is having issues tried this and reported back as well...

p.s. this worked for me but i am not responsible if you mess up your phone!

[Atrix 4G General] primeboss:
Anyone except TC try this with sucess? I have Alien 4 with stock kernel and i am getting about 15 to 20 hours before death.
[Atrix 4G General] DeathKoil:
I could be wrong, but I'm fairly confident that the following information is correct:

Doing a factory reset on the stock android recovery simply wipes data, cache, and dalvik - all of which can be done with any of the after market recoveries.

I am unsure as to whether or not factory reset also wipes the battery stats in the stock android recovery.

Edit: It is highly recommended to wipe the battery stats after you install a new ROM or kernel. To do so the quick and easy way - charge the phone to 100%, reboot to recovery, clear battery, reboot. If is then recommended that you let the phone die (or at least get low) followed by a full charge 2-3 times to make the battery accurate. The most involved way to reset the battery stats is to charge to full with the phone off. When it says 100%, pull the battery, plug it back in, let it charge for an additional hour or two while still off like this. It will likely not show 100% after an hour or two, that's fine. Boot into recovery, wipe stats, start up the phone, then unplug it. Follow this will drains and full charges 2-3 times and you will be set. This helps to fix poor battery life when it is caused by a battery that will not fully charge.

OP you should try to drain the battery down to nothing. A lot of people who screw up their battery stats end up with bad battery, however at times you can get a very slow draining batter that will give you 20 hours with 60% left, and then when the phone hits 53% (random example), the battery will fall from there to dead in just a few minutes. This happened to me when I first flashed Ninja SF. I was amazed the battery until I decided to let the phone actually die.

This mod will add extended quicksettings to your GSM Evo 3D.

It's a flashable zip:

There different versions, one with the recent apps bar, and one without etc.

Just check the attachment list :)

I've tested it on virtuous rom and just compared the files of all available gsm custom roms - all files of the systemui.apk are identical, so it should work on them without any problems.

If someone needs it for 2.3.3 pls send me the SystemUI.apk so that I can check/modify it.

Works only on deodexed custom roms!

Pls make a cwm backup before trying it and report back if it works.

Some explanations to the attachments

The "restore_original_2.3.4_framework-res" will just remove the battery mod.

The "restore_original_2.3.4_SystemUI" will restore the recent apps and remove the quicksettings.

If you have e.g. flashed the extended quicksettings with the no-recent apps mod and want the recent apps bar back, then just flash the "Extended_quicksettings.zip"

The "lower_autobrightness-circular_battery-no_recent_bar-ext_quicksettings.zip" file is my personal mod I'm using.

It includes additional the mod to force the auto backlight to use the minimum value - the same as you can use, if you set the backlight by hand.

This mod can be found in my sig, if you want to do it yourself.

Hey this works on the HTC Sensation 4g...

Im runing the latest Android Revolution HD ROM, as of today.

Now, do you have a flash zip file with the extension, the battery percentage AND the recent apps bar included too??
[HTC EVO 3D] j4n87:
i would suggest to take one from the cdma dev section.

Just take a Rom/theme with included ext quicksettings and pull the systemui.apk from it- so you would also have the 4g switch, which is missing in the gsm Version.

i have an same issue like vanisleguy1976

so how can i replace my original systemUI and every thing back like stock rom?

thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] j4n87:
mhh, perhaps read the whole OP, before doing something that might damage your System? =).

It's written clearly, that you have to make a backpup with CWM before trying this.

Also that this works only on deodexed customs roms and NOT stock roms.

1.) Ask s.o.who have got the orig. SystemUI.apk for your Version CDMA/GSM 2.3.3/2.3.4 - that will save you to lose your data.

2.) If you can't get the orig. file, you have to search for the correct RUU in this forums - will cause, that you lose your data, if I'm correct.

thanks for reply, i check this site before some one quote from here and he didn't said i can't install it with stock rom.

Just tried the Extended_quicksettings.zip version, after applying both of the restores. Still no status or notification bars.

this one?:

"lower_autobrightness-circular_battery-no_recent_bar-ext_quicksettings.zip"

if I'm right, i used this file on virtuous rom.

The lower brightness tweak don't work with leedroid rom.

Can you test if you can get the lowest brightness value for your screen if you cover your light sensor with your hand and switch between auto brightness and the lowest manual brightness value?

I've got a fixed version vor leedroid if you want whis feature to be working.

Should save a lot of battery..

BTW leedroid already got quicksettings included, so why you flash this file? ^^
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creeve4:
Looking for some clarification on app permissions, i.e. Owner, Group, Others, Read, Write, Execute.

Using Root Explorer or adb we can change the permissions of files and folders.

How important is it that a particular application have the correct permissions?

Does is really matter if an app has Group Write if it is not supposed to?

When pushing apps with adb, how are permissions determined? Is it ok to leave them as adb sets them?

I have done alot of adb pushing and the permissions after are never the same as they were originally.

The Citrix Receiver for WebOS is in the HP App Catalog (at least here in the US). I haven't been able to get it to work, as our Citrix env has two-factor auth and isn't accessible directly from any of the Receivers. On my Galaxy Tab I was able to use the Receiver to launch the .ica file that gets downloaded (using the mobile FF browser), but the browser on the TP doesn't appear to download the .ica file properly (inside of it is a redirect instead of connection parameters), so there's no possibility to launch the Receiver manually with that file.

I went as far as to put UbuntuChroot on, and get the arm-based Receiver for Linux, but that segfaults when run. If I have a chance, i might try pulling the plugin off of my Atrix Webtop and use that within UC. I'll report back if that is successful.
