Anyone have a little hard time locking in the battery cover? It locks but seems a little loose. Once you lock it press the middle and it seems to loosen up the locks on the sides or what not.

Or it could be just me.....

I've seen a few phones that use the LED flash as a flashlight, and I have an app that can do this(quick settings). My question is, has anyone had the LED flash on for an extended period of time without any problems? Has anyone actually had the LED burn out?

thanks.
[Xperia Play General] edokassiah:
doubt itll take a large amount of damage to the led

if u have it on a short period of time and if u do plan on having it on a large amount of time just buy yourself a led flash light keychain :p dollar doesnt compare to the headache of the led burning out

I have come from a wildfire to a galaxy s and I am extremely dissapointed in the lack of Widgets.. and good ones at that.

So I was wondering if anyone knows ofbany apparently okn the market that are HTC or like HTC Widgets that I can download???

As always.. thanks guys :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beardedwonder:
I use colorize widget for a contacts widget, plume for a twitter widget, touch calendar for a calendar widget and fancy widget for a clock and weather widget.

I use go launcher as my launcher as well.

I made my phone look very HTC like using a combination of things...

Heres a video of my phone and i list of what i used underneath.

[YOUTUBE]fAwgX-sM_Ak[/YOUTUBE]

I used launcher pro plus from the market ( paid )

widget locker for the lockscreen from the market ( paid )

sense widget theme for the launcher pro widgets from the market ( paid )

the dock is a an image of the sense dock which i set as the the dock background and then i used a transparant image for each of the buttons ( right button = browser; middle 3 buttons = phone; left button = app drawer )

the keyboard is itap from the market ( paid )

The wallpaper is the HTC LIVE wallpaper which can be found here on XDA. Just install it as a normal APK.

The clock and weather app is fancy widgets from the market ( paid ).

I hope that helps :cool:

[Nook Color General] bgreiwe:
Hi all,

I have run into one issue on my nook. I have had it for a while and followed all the directions for root and it was running perfect. One day it rebooted and would nver start back up. It gets stuck in the Nook Color Devs Boot Loop where it says Nook, then color in a rainbow scheme. I attempted to reload the factory image, ran the first manual nooter and logged into gmail, etc. Then I ran the second nooter and now I am stuck in a boot loop again. Is there anyway to solve this?

A factory reset appears to help but as soon as I root, the same thing happens. I have attempted to search but couldn't find anything else.

I also found out that if I clear dalvik and cache then it won't go immediately to the boot loop. It attempts to load but i am not sure what to do.

Thanks all.
[Nook Color General] Yoinx:
You may want to specify which version of Stock you're reloading. I don't know for sure, but there may be some different procedures if you're on 1.3... But I don't know, just a tip for people to give you more specific help.
[Nook Color General] bgreiwe:
Thank you. This has happened to me on both the1.2 and 1.3 stock rom. It actually just shut off one day and then started doing this.
[Nook Color General] Yoinx:
I'm not very familiar with the stock rom. I got rid of it within like 10 minutes of getting my nook, turning it into a tablet was my whole reason for buying one.

I didn't think there was more than one root script that you had to run though. At least not for 1.2, I dunno about 1.3 though.

Perhaps something there's messing it up?

Personally, I would suggest following one of the threads about restoring to stock... step by step and see if that helps.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13198961#post13198961

Basically... just make a bootable cwm card. Make a backup of what you have atm. Copy the zip you download from that thread to your card. Boot your cwm card and goto mounts and storage, and format: /system, /data, /cache, and I would do /boot just in case. Normally, you shouldn't format boot... but just in case something there is causing you a problem it might be best. I know the stock rom restores the boot files anyway. Then just go to (sorry if the wording here isn't right, I don't have my nook in front of me) install zip from card, then select zip, and choose the 1.2 zip you put on the card. It should take like 5-10 mins to flash... remove the bootable sdcard, and choose reboot now. This should get you back to 100% stock 1.2, then you can retry rooting it... I think 1.2 needs the manual nooter script. You shouldn't have to run anything more than once to root it though, unless you upgrade after that to 1.3.
[Nook Color General] Betterblue:
I had the same problem after getting the 1.3 update and re-rooting. The problem was adobe flash 10.3. I ran flashplayer_fix.zip from GMPOWER's post on this page (sorry don't know how to link the post) and it fixed the problem.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motolio:
So, i have the newest update (today) and now my phone says "Low on Space" and "Storage almost full", even though it is practically empty. I did a "clear storage", so there is absolutely nothing xtra on this phone, but it persists. I think it only happens after I import contacts from my sd card... weird... anyone else?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezegm:
I think the new update partitioned the phone memory different. Having the same problems so I basically didn't install anything besides what I need. I'll be waiting for an update from Verizon or HTC to fix the problem.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unholyfire:
Connect to your PC, backup your emmc (internal storage partition), place your phone into debugging mode (Settings>Applications>"USB Debugging").

Download HTC Sync and the 2.2 RUU. Connect to HTC Sync. Run the 2.2 RUU. Go through the phone setup again once phone has rebooted. Goto "Dialer", enter *#*#CHECKIN#*#* . Accept the 2.3 update. Check if the bug continues.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motolio:
This "update" is just a poorly tested piece of crap.

For some reason this gb update would not let me re-root (possible because the memory was full, and it could not push root?)

I ended up re-flashing back to the last official vzw rom from Shipped Roms dot com and re-rooting. WORKED LIKE A CHARM... I'm sticking with xda dev ROMs from now on!

This is just proof of how much work all the devs put into their ROMs.

Ovo-Community Rom, im coming home, baby!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] coasterman927:
I saw a post here a few weeks ago about Hexxeh (the guy behind all the ChromiumOS releases) having a build almost ready for our TF's, live-booted from a USB. Anyone know anything about the project in regards to progress or a possible ETA? As much as I love my Honeycomb, having a real web browser to actually do things like use Google Docs and what not would be really, really great.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ExploreMN:
Not to be a smart-ass, but why would you want to downgrade your tablet?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] earlyberd:
You would be better off waiting for Google to release a proper Honeycomb optimized Docs app. Current Linux ports to Tegra-based hardware are slow and buggy, and not really ready for prime time. Even when fully optimized, most of the inherent snappiness in a Chromebook comes from the fact that it packs a SSD and RAM that are capable of several magnitudes faster I/O than the Tegra. The current Android browser performs a lot better than Chrome/Chromium OS ever could on a Tegra.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] patriotaus:
Well the people behind chrome are now working with the people in Android to make the browser better.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jyams:
I narrowed my choices down to a Chrome Book, Netbook, and a Transformer. Bottom line was that the Transformer gives you many more options, plus the 16 hour battery capacity was a big chicken dinner winner!! I have the Chrome OS running on my laptop at work and all it is is installed icons with hotlinks to existing webpages and sites. Microsoft does offer their "skydrive" with a hotmail account. Skydrive is a 25gb account of free "cloud" storage inside your hotmail account, plus cloud versions of Word, Excel, PPoint and OneNote. But you can still get there on the browser on the Transformer. Between my dropbox, sugarsync, and MS Skydrive accounts, plus Google docs (all free), I can't imagine needing anymore cloud storage (32gb+). I also have an unlimited HostGator account for the really big stuff. Can access that on the Transformer also. Wifi is so universal now I can't remember the last time I actually used a tablet or laptop without a connection. I love leaving the house in the mornings and never having to worry about a plugin all day. At lunch, i just grab the tablet off the dock and do all my reading while eating. It's so light and handy. Tether to my Evo cell phone and I'm online anywhere anytime. Awesome!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] checkbox111:
I asked that on the other thread :rolleyes: if you want a device with an OS installed with ONLY a browser and a cloud app, buy a chrome book!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] magqccom:
To have a working brower on the tablet I already bought. Internet is the main reason I bought it based on reviews that the browser was so damn good.

I am hopefull that I will not have to wait for Google to straighten up their Honeycomb browser as that does not even seem like any kind of priority for Android, despite the reorganisation that took place at Google. Saying that the Chrome team is working with the Android team does not equal them working on fixing the browser in a timely manner.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] coasterman927:
I mean... don't get me wrong, I love my TF and Honeycomb very much. I wouldn't be abandoning it, just sort of dualbooting between it and ChromiumOS. I really hope they pull themselves together to make a competent browser, I'm guessing for ICS. I want to be able to use the browser just as I do on my computer. No input lag like I'm experiencing right now typing this. The ability to use fullon web apps like Google Docs. No browser force closes after scrolling through my Tumblr dashboard for too long.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SilverZero:
I'd let this one go. Hexxeh got rid of his TF.

Also, as a ChromeOS tester, I can say that it's not really worth even installing on devices made for it. The whole OS will be dead soon anyway, Android is clearly the horse Google is betting on.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] coasterman927:
Ah... now there's the answer I was looking for. I can stop waiting around for this then. Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iammodo:
Would like to start a general discussion here.

Would it be a good idea if Google only use android on their own ( Motorola) hardware?

Take this as current state and not the changes in ice cream.

Currently android is a mess 6 versions of the the os in the market.

Three main ones app makers have to support.

I love aosp so I use cm7 as I missed the nexus one and the nexus s didn't have an SD card.

I have tried touchwiz on a galaxy s. Sense on a hero and desire HD. Motoblur on a dext and defy.

They add nothing all they do is slow down the phone and updates.

Why do company's feel the need to add old ui's ( most are ported from older model phones)

Something I miss from my iphones was updates on all devices as the same time, no waiting around for a manufactor to mess around with it,then a network to spoil it even more, then for me to get it after a slow roll out.

So maybe android needs to take a look at ios and think why do app devs like it more? Why do normal users like it more?( XDA users are not normal users)

I would like one of three things to happen.

1- all android phones are aosp.

2- added UI are installable as an option not bundled into the phone.

3- Google to only release phones for purity.

Would like to see peoples thoughts on this.

And also if you like a UI why do you like it? what do you think it adds?

I repair things I am not a writer so hope its coherent enough to get the jist.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vetvito:
HTC, Samsung, Moto, etc... they put those UIs on to dumb down the OS. Make it simple. Simple sells.

Simple UI plus a Powerful OS = great sales!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iammodo:
But sense adds even more settings and more to the lockscreen more everything.

Motoblur seems to need a blur account then you need your Google account for market.

Not that simple to me.

Touchwiz just seems to change things not add or take away.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vetvito:
All of those make it simple. How do you add to the lock screen on stock Android?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iammodo:
You can't on stock its a simple unlock or mute

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aurgerman:
What makes apple so "great" in most customers eyes is the simplicity. I love android just for the fact that there are so many ways time customize it it's ridiculous. Example: apple had to release almost 5 generations of the iPhone just to try to keep up with the android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] iammodo:
Not sure I agree with that.

Android only really took over apple when android got to 2.2( not everyone even has that yet)

Ios is very rock soil and before ios4 didn't really crash on me. I have only started noticing problems since ios4.

And with the customization with our phones there is a limit to what you can theme on stock rom without root.

Installing cydia on ios devices you get loads of themes and changes some of them are even better then android visually.

Are you sure ^ ? 2.2 - 2.3 is on 85% of Android devices right now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jazz848:
Let's keep in mind that all these companies need to distinguish themselves from their competition. Consider all the competing phones based on, say, the ARM A8 platform. With similar core hardware under the hood running the same underlying OS, the interface is simply the best place to make a given model noticeably distinct to the average consumer.

Google may not be thrilled with platform fragmentation, but I'd wager that the various royalties / licensing fees / brand recognition opportunities / whatever more than make up for it. Going full-turtle would be bad business. Just my 2 cents...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jazz848:
Coming soon from Google: AryanOS, locked down tighter than **** Cheney's butthole to guarantee purity!

/Godwinned
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SwiftLegend:
So true.

Also, Google, Moto, Sammy, and HTC don't fight back enough with carriers, mainly Verizon, against bloat. Verizon would probably say "To hell with Android then" if they did, since they don't have as much leverage as the iPhone and Apple.

Jazz is also right. If every manufacture had stock on their phones, you wouldn't know which to choose since there would be no difference. Only buyers, like us, that actually care about the speed of a phone, and the ram and rom and all that jazz would know the differences, but average users wouldn't. Hell, my sister, who is only 21, doesn't understand the difference between a Droid and an Android phone, she assumes that every phone that runs Android is a Droid...like my aunt's Evo. (lol)

I actually like Sense, especially Sense 3.5. I think it makes Android look a little nicer, especially if you don't want to root or use custom roms. Touchwiz is also kinda nice, but it's really just the launcher that is changed. Blur is a piece of doodoo though. Can't even install the Facebook app onto my X2 because of Blur's useless Facebook integration that works like hell. Tells me everything I don't want to know, and nothing that I do.

I seriously don't see the point of bloat anyways. If the app is already installed on my phone and I never use it, what is the difference between that and it not being on my phone entirely. If I wanted the dang app, I would've clicked the Verizon tab in the market and downloaded VCast or VMusic. Best answer is probably that Verizon has some stupid person in HR or whatever deciding on what is preinstalled on the phone, instead of the actual consumer. (Then again, I don't see the point in a Facebook phone as well..)

[HD2 General] EL_REY666:
on a recent trip in our great state of texas , i was going through some area where of course cell reception is very very limited of non-existent all together...

anyway, i was using garmin xt on the hd2, and when it came close to loosing cell/data coverage, garmin would also loose its satellite signal. of course when i lost everything all together,. garmin would say it lost all satellite signals and reception..

question is i thought hd2 had a gps thing built into it and that garmin would use that and satellites and not have to go through out data plan? i mean this might have cost me ****loads of $$$$ since i did go on roaming quite a few times since tmobile doesnt have alot of coverage everywhere.

i had even toggled off data to see if it would connect to a sat, and nothing....

i just found this weird and i sure as hell don't want to pay alot of $$ cuz of roaming...

any thought/ideas? thanks
[HD2 General] xlr8me:
Make sure your Garmin Mobile shows the 3 or 4 green bars on the GPS intermediate driver. This indicates a lock and the GPS function is working correctly.

Also go into the registry and change these settings:

Change this with your registery

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Resuming]

"gps0:"=dword:00000001

"gpd0:"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Unattended]

"gps0:"=dword:00000001

"gpd0:"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Suspend]

"gps0:"=dword:00000001

"gpd0:"=dword:00000001

Normmaly the numbers are on 4 put this on one and gps should stay awake even when you put the phone in stanby.

It will stay on until a program stop using the gps.

Make sure you hit exit from Garmin and this will switch off the GPS correctly otherwise it will stay on and sap your battery juice. :)

Enjoy...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ph03n!x:
When you mean cannot turn on, does it not switch on at all or does it not boot to Android?

What loader do you use - Magldr or cLK? Try plugging in to the charger. If it is it Magldr, the phone should boot up, if it is cLK it should show the charging light (let it charge for sometime, then unplug the charger and try to power on).

If it is powering on but not loading Android, try to restore a backup in clockworkmod (if you took a backup), else start from scratch - press down the vol down, power on, task 29, flash magldr...

with the phone off, press and hold the power button.

Choose AD Recovery (scroll with vol keys, select using the make call/ answer key). This will load clockworkmod.

In CWM, choose mounts and storage, and mount USB drive

Copy your current ROM's zip file to the USB drive from the computer (download it if required)

Go back to CWM main menu, install zip from sd card, choose zip from Sd card.

After flashing is over, reboot and see if it works...

hey guys!

So I'm new to this forum, as well as android. I know of my friend who has a Samsung csptiate, and he loves it. I however just got a Motorola xoom, and was wondering if rooting and putting a custom rom is worth it?

If so, do you guys have any suggestions for roms?

Thanks guys!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HuckFinn:
It really depends what you want to do with your Xoom and your feelings of your Xoom's performance. If you are happy with what you can do and the speed of your Xoom then I say no do not bother with rooting and custom ROM's.

If on the other hand you want to do more and want more speed doing it, yes by all means root and install a custom ROM. I highly recommend the Tiamat ROM's. It will give you more features and more control over your Xoom. They have a new ROM in the works so you may want to take your time researching your options.

The best advice I can give you is to do your research. Find the how-to guides, download all the files and read and re-read all the instructions. Make sure you fully understand what you are doing before you do it. Most problems come from people making small mistakes and not following the instructions step by step and word for word. Make sure to use the exact versions of files specified. Do not assume that a newer version of something is better or has the same features. There is a risk of bricking your Xoom whenever you flash something, but if you are carefull and follow instructions the risk is minimal and there are people in the forums who are willing and capable of helping.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] force2bwreckndwit:
Honestly, I want more speed. Do you also have to put a custom kernel?

If so, which kernel do you recommend?
