I was wondering if its possible to have two stock camera apps? Specifically I'm thinking sense 1 + sense 3 cameras
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KB112:
Yes you can have both. Look for a post by tommy tomatoe. He made a flashable camera zip from the newer sense builds. You get the panorama mode etc. The only thing is, you cant use the video recorder from the other camera app. But your stock video camera app will work with no issue.

Got my Touchstone direct from HP today and first thing I tried it with the TP in it's case, good news is it charges fine, the bad news is the case has a metal stud on the back where it swivels and that got red hot in a matter of minutes! I mean hot enough to blister my skin and melt through the plastic protector I hadn't got around to taking off the Touchstone.

So.. warning!!! - Don't get any metal between the TP and Touchstone, they do not mix!
[TouchPad Accessories] SpikeyPsyche:
Anyone that knows how induction works is aware that the first rule of using such a device is that you never, for any reason, get any ferric metal between an induction coil and its target.
[TouchPad Accessories] RcklssNdngrmnt:
Which case are you using, just to warn anyone else?

I have the stock HP "snap on" case, and didn't experience this problem.

Will have to remember to keep my phones away from the dock, so it doesn't mess up their magnetometers...
[TouchPad Accessories] Troute:
The case is a generic leather look one off eBay, the one that acts as a stand and allows the inner tp section to swivel 360deg. I've since removed the pop stud from the inner section altogether since the touchstone acts as a stand and the outer can still be attached for transportation protection.

The point about ferrous metal is valid, it just didn't occur to me at the time and probably wouldn't to many others, hence the post.
[TouchPad Accessories] SpikeyPsyche:
It's a good thing you posted. I have no doubt it most likely saved several people from experiencing device destruction or possibly a small fire.
[TouchPad Accessories] nunjabusiness:
Although a better-worded title would make more of the right people actually READ the thread. Something like "Danger - don't fry your TP accidentally!"

You're right, it's done.
[TouchPad Accessories] yeahman45:

[TouchPad Accessories] knightnz:
But most people don't know how induction works (or even a microwave). I'd hope that the cross-section of these people and those who have purchased a Touchpad+Touchstone doesn't have too much intersect though.

[TouchPad Accessories] pseudoswede:
Has anyone tried a touchstone charger with a zippered case? (Something like this.)
[TouchPad Accessories] Troute:
No but it should be ok in the horizontal position as long as the zip is at the top. Of course if the zip is not ferrous metal then you have no problem apart from trying to balance the thing on the charger in that case.

You have to flash it manually. You can install ROM Manager, it will download the new ROM (support CM7), backup, flash it and reboot for you automatically.

I was running Back to the future and tried to unlock sim unlock and it did not work. I was unable to try booting SD Android and attempting an unlock because I did not have a spare SD Card, but it might be worth a shot before re-flashing 6.5. Good luck.

My phone died in exactly the same way this morning. Lucky for me Vodafone UK are giving me a replacement tomorrow (I expected them to say I had to send it in for repair, because it's 3 months old).

I will be so angry if it turns out that this phone has inherent build-quality/toughness issues. I haven't mistreated it at all.

Hope you get your problem resolved.

I cant make a video, so i'll just describe.

Wipe Factory reset => 2 clicks down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button

Wipe cache => 3 clicks down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button

Wipe Dalvik => 3 clicks up, home button, 1 click down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button

Then turn off with power button and reboot to download. Flash stock kernel, use usb jig, and go over to the service station.

Hey Guys!! ive been flashing and experimenting stuff on my phones for 2 years know. and i want to get to a next level. Where can i find the tools and guide on how to make custom roms. Im very interested in this. If somebody can help me i would like to start doing this.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaynpayn:
So, i've tried many different roms out there on my SGS. Never got any major issue with flashing or setting them up. Supposedly a custom rom has something improved but there was one think i kept thinking they all fail and i was wondering if anyone else feels the same.

I see random posts all the time telling how great multitasking in android is. But all these roms i keep using try their very best to close just about everything i have running. As far as i can tell, a few seconds after i switch to anything else, my first app gets closed. For example, everytime i'd leave browsing to manage what im listening to or sort out files on some file manager i'd find i needed to open my browser again instead of being there opened and waiting for me to return.

After searching for a while, the best explanation i could find out is to prevent battery drain from opened apps and to keep things smooth by having free ram, which kind of makes sense. Goes against what i read in a paper from google about android multitasking but fair enough.

Except the other day i happened to returned to a froyo stock rom (JS8 with darkcore 1.4) on my SGS and found out this does not happen. Apps stay open for the most part, except when i run something really heavy (like a game). And i dont really notice any performance decrease or extra battery drain from my usual usage.

Granted, i could be just told something along the lines "well dude, just use whatever works for you" and i totally plan on doing so, hence me experimenting, but thats not really my point. What i'm going for is, are custom roms being overzealous? because this really spoils any attempt at multitasking...

Again, this is not a rant of any sort, i was just wondering what are other people's thoughts about it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MahZi:
I'm suffering same problem

i want to have the browser and messenger at the same time

i have 80mb free ram
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gruzilkin:
I had the same problems, although lack of multitasking appeared on my stock rom, not a custom... sgs couldn't handle faceboom messager, viber, and a browser at the same time, everytime I switch from my browser to something else - it gets killed, which is frustrating

at the same time I saw how nexus s work, and how much free memory it has, compared to mine, the difference was huge!

I tried cyanogen at first, which was very close to stock nexus s, but it doesn't work good with sgs's camera and crashes once in a while

so eventually I installed JVT with voodoo and uninstalled different samsung stock apps, which gave me about 50mb of additional RAM compared to stock, and there doesn't seem to be any aggressive memory cleaners working, so I can now finally switch between all the apps I need
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disclaimernotice:
If you want the best roms for multitasking, go for the final builds of Froyo 2.2.1. They have plenty of free ram and are very smooth. I'd recommend Froyo ZSJPK. You can download it from XDA.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nwsk:
I think it depends on the ram settings in your ROM. The way android works is there are a bunch of system settings on how much ram to keep clear, and if it drops beneath certain values they start killing apps.

It's highly possible these values were tweaked in the custom roms, to improve the perceived smoothness and so on, but at the same time reducing multitasking. There's a trade off between performance and multitasking (guess why apple was so reluctant to add multitasking?)

I'm not really an expert on it, but I'm sure some quick searches around will find out where those values are and how to change them.. some rom/app probably even allows you to tweak them to your liking.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtluis:
All Gingerbread roms do the same, closing apps after moving away from this, don't know why, but froyo didn't do this and ginger does.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaoJie:
I used to be like TS, clearing RAM because it might let the phone run smoother. After getting more exposed to Android, I realised that it could be logical to keep your apps in RAM instead of doing a cold boot again, meaning to close an app, open, close and open again, making it taxing on the phone.

So I tried to use up as much RAM as possible and it works just fine, it feels good. I believe the problem you have stated is that in your ROM, the task manager has instructions to clear the RAM once it hits a certain threshold. When it does, it starts to clear apps in different category, starting from what is known as empty apps, which are generally just apps you use and are not important to the android OS or rather independent from the OS.

In the new Samsung ROM, the threshold is set to 40MB, and it is working great for me. You can go to the android market and download "Galaxy Tuner" to set the threshold to a value you feel comfortable with. To multitask better, set the threshold as low as possible.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soudy1994:
ok i downloaded galaxy tuner but idk how to change threshold :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tommymac1039:
the post says it all. i am a noob when it comes to bionic and want to free up my memory (internal) what would be the EASIEST way to accomplish this?directions please with sugar on top.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Root Explorer... navigate to /system/app.

I always make a folder on my SD like "SystemApps" then I move what I don't want out to that folder as opposed to just deleting them, just in case I find out something is acting weird or needed.

"Some" of the bloat can be uninstalled via the built in App Manager also.

:)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nrage23:
This really should not be in the development section. Until we have a way to back everything up via recovery the only way you can do anything like that is through rooting and using Titanium backup. You can either freeze or uninstall any app. I would not uninstall anything without backing it up first. All I have done is freeze some bloatware so I do not have to see it in the app list. You can really f up your phone if you remove the wrongs stuff. A there is a list somewhere of which apps you can freeze without issues.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tommymac1039:
Already rooted and you can already back up

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bull174:
After uninstalling some bloat ware i got a force close when trying to access some of my contacs anyone have a list of what they unistalled? ?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GertBFrobe:
THIS!!!

I am no where near an expert as some of the Devs in these forums, but I went through a lot of ROMs on my old Eris. Every time, though, I had a Nand backup to go to if/when I screwed up.

Now that I have a nice, new, shiny Bionic I will not root until there is an SBF to allow a return to stock. Yep, people like P3Droid, and others, have successfully rooted and debloated. All it takes, though, is some little glitch, power spike or otherwise, to screw things up. Actually, reading a few forums there are more than a few that have already bricked or really hamstrung their $600 phone by just rooting and borking around trying to debloat.

Patience people. Within 2, 3, 4 weeks I'm sure one of our Dev wizards will have a failsafe method ... WITH BACKUP RESTORE CAPABILITIES.

I just group up my apps to eliminate viewing the bloat. My phone is fine. Fools rush in, for sure.

On a side note: I've seen a couple people mention on other forums that they have bricked their phones and committed fraud by returning their smoldering remnants back to Verizon. Slackers.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bull174:
What did you use to back up your bionic?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Issemann:
I'm guessing Titanium Backup. But here's my question.... Is it safer to 'freeze' bloatware instead of moving it into a new folder on your SD card?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bull174:
As long as you don't delete it when you move it then either option is good from my experience worth moto phones
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tommymac1039:
Ok I have done both renamed bloat files .bak and moved them into their own folder in my sdcard , my question is how do I free up internal memory? When I do either of those sure it removes then from my application drawer but it doesn't free up any memory?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terri M:
You may have uninstalled the Yahoo contacts. You can find a System App dump from here: http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/tbh-discussion-forum/9081-droid-bionic-system-dumps-partial.html

Hope this helps :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terri M:
It's always safer to freeze the bloatware. This way if your phone starts to act up, all you have to do is defrost whatever you froze.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bull174:
That did the trick thanks Idk why Yahoo is tired to that process.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tommymac1039:
