[HTC Sensation] spoks:
As for me, the best car app for today is Car Home Ultra. It is customizable a lot and it shows more usable information on main screen.

But at the same time, I face the problem of finding "right" shortcuts.

For example, if I'm using shortcut for Phone, it always works in portrait mode. I can't get it in landscape :(

Does anyone knows how to get shortcuts for Phone (or Dialer) which are used in original HTC Car panel? Phone app in Car panel does rotate (Favorites, Recent Calls, Dialer)!!! see pics.
[HTC Sensation] NRGZ28:
You would need a Desire Z dialer apk that has the ability to rotate. Problem is.. the Desire is the wrong resolution. You might want to search around a bit and see if anybody ported a rotating dialer to the Sensation...
[HTC Sensation] spoks:
I am not sure dialer from other phones are needed, because, as you can see on pictures, Sensation has already rotating dialer, at least from it's original Car panel.

I want to find shortcuts to these apps.

Ok. Perhaps right question is - how to get Phone mode (dialer) to landscape view?
[HTC Sensation] spoks:
Thanks to "topcattroy" from other forum for workaround on Car Home ultra.

>>>

" ... Inside this app's options it has a check box to turn on car home

which came with the phone. It acts like you put it into a car dock from verizon.

And guess what the dialer is now landscape. So when you use this app

when your driving you can put a shortcuts on the app to call or open the phone.

It is in LANDSCAPE. It took me since the phone came out till today to find this

to work. Hope this helps anybody with a thunderbolt. and i bet other androids too."
[HTC Sensation] soma900:
I am thinking about the same question after tried out several car home dock applications myself. How to get the dailing panel landscape? If you observe carefully most roms do not go to landscape mode of the sense home or dialer if you put your phone on the side. It seems the landscape mode of sense home is supported deep in the framework in the Gingerbread. Most devs, perhaps the htc soft-engineers too make the landscape mode off in the normal situation in order to prevent any complications. Only the devs can figure out how to trigure the landscape mode. Hope an expert finally can focus on thier eyes on this issue and make a application shortcut.
[HTC Sensation] spoks:
At the same time, native CarPanel allows dial mode go to landscape mode. Even 3rd part dialers works in landscape (but I like sense :D).

Also for Windows phones there were quite easy to make "white list" in registry for apps to allow them to rotate.

I am not sure, but perhaps I have to ask this question in devs discussions.
[HTC Sensation] gmaguire:
I eventually got the dialer into landscape mode after a few tries. I am using a rooted leedroid ROM but its should be pretty much the same for standard ROM.

I had to remove all of the HTC Locations apps and widgets, as these are all system apps I used Android Optimizer for doing this. This also allowed me use the Google Car Home app which is installed but not accessible with HTC Locations installed.

To put the phone into Car Mode I use the Tasker app to set the Display Car Mode on but the Car Home Ultra app also has an option to do this.

With this done I can use the standard dialer in landscape and as I prefer to use Google Navigation app anyway then I dont have the HTC Locations installed at all and havent tried reinstalling in case it tries to take over again.

... and yes as a wee word of advise, backup everything before you start and then backup each item before you hit the remove button!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] washa_rednecks:
Hi everybody,

I have problem with my HTC Touch Pro 2.

It was fully working until I damaged my LCD screen and digitizer.

So I ordered a new one LCD and digitizer from ebay. I changed old lcd and digitizer, booted up my HTC and everything looked allright. But problem came soon. Touch screen can't recognize my touch exactly. For example, if I click on something, digitizer solve it allways about 2-3mm higher. So I can't click on start, battery and every other click is moved about 2-3mm higher.

I made a calibration, but without any effect. I made a hard reset and than a calibration, problem still same.

And if try to make a new calibration (after first calibration after HR), I click on first cross (in the middle of screen), then up-left corner, down-left corner, down-right corner, up-right corner and nothing happens, I have to click on first cross again... and whole procedure again... So I have to make a HR and try to make a new calibration... still same problem.

Could anybody help me please? I'm going crazy, because I like my HTC and I can't use it anymore. :(

Is there any other way to make a calibration or how can I repair it?

ROM:

Energy.RHODIUM.29022.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Jul.04.7z

(I have this ROM before I damaged LCD screen, any it worked fine)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
It almost sounds like the screen/digitizer aren't lined up correctly... Just my .02.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] washa_rednecks:
Thanks for reply.

Ok, then It seems to be a HW problem between screen and digitizer?

So what can I do now? Try to repair it again?

How can I check, if digitizer is OK? or could be digitizer bad at all?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
I'm just guessing from your description. I've never actually replaced the screen... If the two have to line up perfectly, I would ensure they are lined up correctly. Perhaps try slightly moving the digitizer down...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] washa_rednecks:
Ok, thanks. But I can't move with a digitizer, because it is in fixed position. Maybe I can move with a screen under a digitizer, but then I will not be able to see whole screen (digitizer has a black edge/margin/border).

Any other suggestion?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Nope, all I got. Calibration always works perfectly for me - if calibration doesn't work, there certainly must be some hardware problem. You replaced the screen, unfortunately you must establish where the hardware issue lies.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ScruffyWolf:
I don't have any help for you, sorry, just jumping on the wagon. My touch screen worked fine for a year but is now way off (1.5-2 inches sometimes) without having damaged the screen to my knowledge. I've switched roms (from MR.X to Mighty) and hard reset. If I try to calibrate it just keeps running through the process. Should I try to replace the digitizer? I plan on getting an iPhone if possible on Sprint in the coming month but would like to sell this for at least a little bit.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
To both of you guys - have you ensured there's nothing between the screen or digitizer? Nothing that is wedged on the edge of the screen...?

I know some had reported complete screen failures just from some gunk that got wedged on the side of the screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ScruffyWolf:
Thought about that, but dismissed the tiny little amounts of gunk on the edge..currently searching for a toothpick or something small to clean out the edge. Thanks for the idea! Will report back.

Thanks so much arrrghhh! Found a small pin and got out most of the dust/gunk that was between one side of my phone. Apparently that bezel side is just a little bit looser. You saved me lots of time and money! Thanks. Always helpful on here and PPCGeeks.

Edit #2: Must still be more junk because the 100% functionality just went away. Time to clean it again

Hey all,

Not sure if this has been mentioned or not but I was playing around a little and noticed that some sounds (sytem sounds, ringtones, notifications) do not go through the headset when headphones are plugged in.

Turns out if you plug in a headset with the microphone all works fine.

Bummer as most headsets with mic are not so good and this doesn't really help when hooking up to the car.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mexigga:
I do believe that some carriers do not allow Google Voice to use their numbers which is the cause of your issue... (please correct me if I am wrong)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bfitz26:
Yes thus the reason I am on a evo forum :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theidlemonk:
well i see users from Boost,etc here too is why i asked :) ...

but then going back to your issue..the reason I asked about your carrier is because, GV is integrated with Sprint, so on install it will take over your phone calls, voicemail and messaging (just as an FYI)

...so to counter your issue, i would try clearing data/cache for the app GV, under phone settings check GV as voice mail and then try to set up GV again after a reboot.

I hope this works for you.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tonyt76:
Hello,

I recently purchased a 16GB Galaxy Tab Wifi and when I do a factory reset, it will not run setup. It takes me to the same home screen, with an extra icon "Factory Mode" also the lock screen does not work.

I have rooted the tablet and tried the offical 3.1 ota rom and the TW stock+rooted rom, but even after I do a clear/erase everything, the tablet refuses to run setup and the same "Factory Mode" icon appears on the home screen with lock screen not working.

Is there a way to wipe the internal memory/system files to make this factory fresh again?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
Did you use the ClockworkMod Data Wipe/Factory Reset?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tonyt76:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
Try doing the data wipe AND cache/davlik cache wipe.

I tried those as well... no luck

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Wordsmith9091:
Is it possible to repartition the internal storage to have more available for media?

I have no intention of buying the Webtop or otherwise using that interface. And I wouldn't mind sacrificing a little bit of that application space (maybe half of it) for media.

The current ceiling of 8GB + 32GB external isn't bad at all for a phone, but if I could eek out another 4 GB or so, I'd be a lot happier. I'm right on the threshold where I can't quite carry all the music I'd like to with me. (yes, I know about google music, and that's a so-so solution to this problem).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrnaz:
I've been unable to find an SMS rate limit removal guide for Android versions after Froyo. The code limiting the SMS send rate to 100 does not appear to be in the settings DB that it used to be in, and nobody seems to know where it is now.

Surely this is an easy thing to locate, anyone familiar with the codebase should be able to track it down with relative ease. However nobody seems to have published anything about it.

So here I ask: Does anyone know anything about removing the 100SMS/hour rate limit on Gingerbread phones? I am surprised that this silly limit hasn't been removed, or at least made optional, in CM7 and other custom ROMs.

Any info would be appreciated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cognitivedissonance:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalgel:
Hi,

I was taking some snaps with my S2 today and I was trying to spot meter on some bright lights so that I could expose for them and underexpose the rest of the scene. However, I realized that spot metering only works at the center of the screen. To my knowledge, the phone should spot meter at the point that I decide to focus on. When I tap to focus it should automatically spot meter on that region. That is how it works on my friends HTC legend and thats how it works on my Nikon D300s. Spot metering should be done based on the autofocus point but it doesn't work this way on my phone. I have to spot meter using the center of the scene, keep the shutter button pressed, recompose and then release to take a snap. Could someone explain why this is not working as it should or is this just samsung's weird implementation of this feature.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deving:
Galaxy Camera Spot Metering

So, I have noticed the same issue on the S3, spot meter and center wieghted metering only works on the center of the screen, even if your focus point is somewhere else. I dont recall the original Galaxy S being programmed like this, most other phones I have also tried (iphone 4 and iphone 5, droid x) all allow you to spot meter on your desired focused point.

Apparently, samsung beleives your focal point of your picture should always be in the center of your picture! I find this odd, considering they have put so many features in the phone to appeal to photographers, but they seem to have left left out a basic metering function that is available on most other phones, and one that is vital in creating shots with proper exposure control.

Does anyone know of android camera application that allows for more contoll over the spot metering capabilities?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYSE:
That's a really a very interesting topic!! Also Bada 1 linked the exposition to AF, (i took amazing shoots) while in Bada 2 this feature has been lost: the exposure is always weighted to the center of image. It is very common in other devices (for example in my lumia 620) (there you cannot even choose the metering mode...) and cameras too (canon, but not nikon..)

Anyway the old Galaxy S advance has still the exposition calculated on the focus point... Why have they changed? It's a so stupid thing...
[Verizon Droid Charge] johnfoy:
As someone who is on the road a fair amount, call recording was a godsend for going back to make notes. Same for my wife who manages a team of people and her phone calls usually involve details.

Our state allows call recording so long as one of the parties is aware that the call is being recorded. So, we've had a need and we meet the legalities.

Love this droid Charge except that I've yet to find a call recording app. My phone is rooted (so I could do full backups and run LBE Security).

What options do we have on the Droid Charge for call recording?

Thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] johnfoy:
@lufc: Fair call.. My fault - sorry.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dkguru:
I would use Google Voice. It allows for in-conversation call recording (Press "4" and GV will announce it is now recording). It's free to setup and will of course allow your GV number to forward and ring simultaneously on your cell as well as office and/or home phone.

I use it every day.
[Galaxy 3 General] ka'cipeder:
My phone shuts down when i open the battery cover, it started happening a few days ago. Sometimes it turns off without opening the battery cover, but it is probably related to the problem, since it started occuring approximately at the same time. The battery doesn't move when i open the battery cover, It doesn't happen every time i open the battery cover, but it is really anoying when it happens, especially when it shuts down by itself.

EDIT: while writing this i opened and closed the back a few times, phone turned off two times
[Galaxy 3 General] i_rnb:
Try this.

keep Ur phone screen downward. Maintaining this scrictly open the battery cover. See if the phn is off..

Do several times. & tell me d results.
[Galaxy 3 General] RohMish:
Think this is because the screw of the back plastic, i.e. the screw which holds back the battery to the casing, check it or the wire has been broken, and in contact because of other grippers or wires from welding.

Check it out.

OR just it may be a sensor problem.

Dont know, can you upload pictures or video?
[Galaxy 3 General] dilzo:
Try putting a thick piece of rolled up paper between the battery and back cover
[Galaxy 3 General] ka'cipeder:
It's probably the sensor, i reflashed back to 2.2 jps and there was no problem so far. So far. There is nothing wierd about the hardware of the phone, so pics and vid are useless, i compared mine with friends G3 and they look identical under the hood, probably the sensors got a bit messed up. We will see if the problem presists, but i doubt it will.

EDIT: The phone was on my desk for like 20 mins, i didn't even touch it, it turned it self off with no sign or reason or warning. I will flash stock firmware and go to SamFu*kingSuck service, i hate this phone, it always dies on me when i need it. I will never ever buy a product from samsuck again. My next phone will be HTC and i will try to get it as soon as possible. Thank you all for making this piece of junk phone better and better every day for us that got screwed by samsuck. Really, a big thanks to all developers that even bother with this junk. Sry for ranting BTW
