[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zuben el genubi:
I've been doing that. I have a question about TI backup. I told it to delete the Kindle App, and using manage apps on the phone, Kindle is still listed. Did TI actually remove it?

I can't use Kindle as a reader since it's only linked to Amazon's bookstore. I like Manybooks and Gutenberg project and you can't read them on either the Kindle or Nook apps. It's funny that I could read any file on the Nook Wifi I had.

The phone is rooted and unlocked. I use it mostly as a PDA.

I liked the Palm platform and now enjoying Linux. Ubuntu doesn't assume anything. Mine came with Open Office, but if I'd rather use Libre Office, I can delete Open and install Libre.

The carriers, Samsung, and Google are assuming too much in some cases. There's quite a few that would love plain vanilla Android.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikeflash:
I think you see kindle app after uninstalling because you didn't get rid of correspondent .odex files. Until you do, you're going to see a link to kindle on your app drawer.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zuben el genubi:
Thanks for that info. I am not familiar with Android extensions.

There's a couple of apps that will allow you to move stuff to the card. I have App2SD and am not impressed. I can understand some of the built in programs not being moved, but I have a financial app that I bought that won't let me move it.

Do any of the other move to sd card apps work any better?

Since I'm rooted, can I use a firewall to stop the updates? I was looking at Droidwall, but I'm not sure about IP tables.

I read in another section about low memory, I've done most of that, and there's still high usage from something.

I have a htc desire with the 2.3.3 gingerbread and htc sense

all stock

Can I upgrade the sense to 3.0 ?

I've been told that the answer screen has been change from the slide up and down to a slide in a ring

the original one is driving me insane. I've declined about 60% of my calls when I'm pulling the phone out of my pocket !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ser.clansman:
You could upgrade sense to sense 3 if you would root and s-off your device and then install a custom rom which has sense 3 (those can be found in Desire Android Development section). You could also flash any of those mixed 2.1&3 sense roms who also implement that lockscreen you seem to be interested in...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itachi1706:
Root and flash a Sense 3 rom, although i recommend you flash a sense 2.1+3.0 hybrid rom. the roms are found here.

Basically, if you need to sit here and ask how to do it then there is no need to even ask in the first place.

No one that knows the scripting/coding to implement this to a ROM is going to tell you where anybody can see in broad daylight e.g. here, Doixanh has put a lot of hard work into creating his ROMs that include this and if it were me i wouldn't be so willing to just give it away because that is one of the key features that makes his ROMs unique.

If you are so desperate to get this feature, then use his ROMs.

If I am running a deodex rom, that is sense 3.0, can I flash customizations such as a transparent Rosie or custom lock screen from a diffrent deodex rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Should be able to without a problem unless its states on the mod thread its only compatible with certain roms. But always make a nand before flashing any mods for a safety net incase anything does get mixed up or just to revert if you wanted to.

[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
the suggestions in the first post reply are great.

in addition here are a few thoughts which came to mind: different mods are done on different files in the android system. two mods might change the same file or two mods might change different files. if the two mods both change the same file, swapping that file in and out means you'll only get one or the other version of it modded but might have to find a version of that file with both mods performed on it.

ideal beginner solution would be to at least open up the .zip file which contains the mod and check with file is being replaced on your system. it'll give you a good starting point to gauge from as the more mods you flash the more you'll see which files are being modified.

ideal advanced solution would be to understand how the file was modified and perform the modification yourself .. this takes more time and labor but leads to the greatest control over your system. if you're interested in this route, SteelH has a great list of [HOW-TO] guides in the EVO 3D themes & apps board which detail out the exact place to change code in order to accomplish the mod.

hope that helps!

[General Topics] camarao69:
well, after reading some posts about repairing oil stains BEHIND THE TOUCHSCREEN i found a very very good solution . In ten minutes you will have it repaired.

You only need a sucker, i don´t no if that is it´s name in english but you can see it in the picture below.

What you have to do is, stick it to the touchscreen and pull it to the maximum point without letting it unstick. Do it a few times until the stains disappear

I assure you it is faster than duck tape

Haha, it's funny because he said sucker. Nah, joking( I don't know what do you mean because Xda app doesn't load the picture), my advice would be using glass washing fluid. It sounds 'dangerous'(obviously for your screen...), but it works. Just don't use it too much

Same...without even using the over priced protectors from the vzw store.
[General Topics] thaiceman:
You wouldn't catch me dead using either, most glass cleaners have ammonia in them while this does very little if any damage to your screen it can damage the plastic around it. The same holds true for hand sanitizer most of them use some kind of glycerin binder to maintain a gel consistency till it comes in contact with your body heat. As you might have guessed glycerin has cumulative effect on the plastics of your phone the same way ammonia does, I cant speak much on the glycerin but ammonia can turn some types of plastic brittle over time.

Personally I use isopropyl alcohol (the highest concentration I can find) which right now is only 91% works great on all forms of electronics & the dreaded screen smudges from oil.

If your looking for a more portable solution I keep some Invisible Glass wipes in my car, they are ammonia free and do a kick ass job on just about everything I have cleaned with them.

Edit: Just noticed that Invisible Glass is giving out free samples through there site, sadly for you guys on the other side of the world it seems they are only shipping them out to the US.. :(

Suction cup trick is a nice one to know, but knowing my luck I would rip my phone in half :D I have a passion for sliders with a full keyboard somehow I don't think this would mix all that well with them...

Well remember that all liquids are the phone's enemies. If a little bit sips through, we are in trouble. My best advice would be to clean it with a wipe cloth to and a little eye glass cleaner. But don't make it too wet.

Oh look, another biased tech site. Apple isn't abusing the patent system, they're utilizing it for its intendd purpose. There is a big difference. The fact that google steals everything is, and should be their downfall.

This is the same Apple that has initiated a patent war with its smartphone rivals. And it's the same rival that has tried to remove competing products from the market, rather than agree to negotiate a licensing fee. And it's the same company that patented multi-touch gestures 26 years after they were invented at a research university. And it's the same company that allegedly doctored evidence in European courts to support its lawsuits against Android. And yet this company claims android-based smartphone manufacturers are abusing the patent system.

and again you put forth senseless insults, shocker. I'm not, nor could I ever say that apple doesn't steal, however, they also innovate. Google has failed to do this and makes it their business to steal from different hardware/software providers, and even their consumers. Google is a company founded on stealing and you all act as though you're offended by someone mentioning it.
[General Topics] ameedi600:
First of all Google only provides the software HTC, Samsung and other companies provide the hardware. Secondly Google android looks nothing at all like iPhone ui. IPhone is plain where as Google has customization with Widgets notifications and an open source market. Google android is so good that apple decided to implement it into there phones through ios 5, so I wouldn't be talking if I were you.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
I'm fully aware that googlr only provides the software, the software is what is used to steal everything. You CAN customize android to look however but by default its the same boring 4x4 slab of icons and that's how your average consumer will keep it. Android looked like blackberry OS until they saw the iPhone. Android has an open source market which has made it the 2nd biggest target for malware, it is expected that almost 1/3 of android users will encounter malware on their phone within the year. The most common varieties of this malware end up adding a hefty sum to your bill, these can be found on the "open source marketplace" that you're so proud of. As for your last statement saying apple is implementing android into iOS5 the only thing they've got that was stolen was the notifications bar. I'm no apple fan, but I feel justified in calling you an idiot.
[General Topics] ameedi600:
Man everything that you mention makes you sound like an apple fan. Just get the hell out of here because no one likes a whiner who *****es about Google and says he's no apple fan.

I'm not going to keep whining about it.

[General Topics] slapshot30:
Apple does not innovate. They steal many ideas and clump them into one nicely built product. However, most tech companies do take other's ideas and build on them. Apple, HTC, Samsung all feed off of eachother. However, it is a problem when Apple decides they can steal but no one else can, and thus this stupid patent war.
[General Topics] TheATHEiST:
You're on some serious hallucinogenic class a sh1t if you think Apple innovate anything.

100% everything they sell is not original and was done 10 years prior. They also specifcally leave out basic features just so retards buy the next product to get what should have been in the first.

The ONLY thing Apple are good at is their marketing, And that is convincing sheep like you that they bring things new to the table. Do some fking research dude.

Eye candy/marketed well yes, Something new/innovative absolutely not!
