[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ekamsaral:
At the moment I am using launcher 7. It's nice and simple but it lacks customization. It's like it's too simple and it just looks boring.

It just seems that one launcher has what the other one lacks. Some lack finetuning and other lack customization. What I search for is a good amount of customization, but a fast experience.

I love my widgets, so MIUI isn't really an option.

The Iida launcher is the next one I'm going to use. It seems like a new concept and I like to try those out.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceballos:
same point of view... but this stock 2.3.4 fat launcher was just realy borring for me, now i use adw ex for customizable gesture
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maddes1402:
With the MIUI launcher you can use your widgets, too. :D It is just a prejudice that it is a cheap Iphone clone IMO. It offers great settings and with no other ROM you can customise the design so much that it exactly matches your taste. You can choose between hundreds of beautiful themes and can mix them with each other. For example you can take the font of the one theme, mix it with the lockscreen of another one, choose the buttons of a theme you like the most etc etc...

And everything is very comfortable to customise.

The only similarity between IOS and MIUI is that both don´t have an app drawer.

But when you search for a good amount of customization, but a fast experience nothing still beats Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher EX IMO.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnacks:
But guess what, 90% of the themes still look like a cheap ios clone.. Lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maartenmk:
I haven't actually used many launchers, but I do like the stock one, the 2.3.3+ one to be precise. Simple, and staying close to basics.

The photo widget is the best looking desktop picture widget there is. And I even found myself using the Timescape widget.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnacks:
I don't like the regular SE home launcher, but I do reallly like the one with corners.

I've been using that lately and it's killer
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riginal:
I really like Go launcher ex & ADW laucher ex for all the customizations & themes & I'm using Go right now but I always end up going back to launcher pro, Dunno really why, but I find it faster & more stable, pity it can't close/kill desired apps, iida home launcher is really cool too
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jayvede:
If you don't wanna go with the stock I think Go launcher is a pretty decent alternative :-)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maartenmk:
That's for the Mini versions right? Or does it run on X10 as well?

Yeah there was one posted that works on higher resolution devices!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceballos:
The sotck is very nice with Photo widget, But i preffer Go launcher which is very fast , stable and you can put some gesture ont the dock bar.. Also you have recent/running app list + Beautiful widget like calandar + a 5X4 grid..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielk0302:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ocramotilop:
I was wondering if there is a way to locate an n64oid save file on the phone and transfer it to a different device. I have an opportunity to swap my Galaxy S II for a white one.. The only thing stopping me is that I don't want to lose my Ocarina of Time save file. I've searched both my SD card and Phone memory for the keywords "zelda, n64, n64oid, save, saves" without any success.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I noticed that it was very slow to import. I assume that is because of the sheer size of the file compared to the built-in host file sources? Does it take that long each and every time it is loaded? Or, does AdAway do a compare and only import the changes?

Guys, am I the only one getting bitten by too much blocking? The file at http://img1.absintheoriginal.cz/hosts includes plaxo, blogger, and a few other useful sites in the blocklist. I always have to edit those out on my N1 after each update. Also, it seems to be including an adult site filter listing, at least looking at the domain names. Isn't it a bit excessive?
[G1 General] jbbandos:
Well, I am giving up on this list - now even market thumbnails are blocked. Too bad, as it blocks all angry birds crap, but it really is blocking too much stuff now. Any suggestions for alternatives (preferably adblocking only, no need for tasteless and adult blocks)?

Yes, I'm still seeing this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Smoghog:
Has anyone compiled a list of the safe-to-remove apps for the AT&T GSII along with corresponding .apk filenames, yet? I've already removed a number of them via Root Explorer, using the list of removed apps from Cognition's rom, but there's a couple that still remain and I'm wondering if they're ok to remove or not. A full list would be best, though I'm mainly wondering about:

Kies Air

Featured Apps

Social Hub

AT&T Hot Spots (doesn't show in app list, but still shows as a running app for me)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DefTaker:
Don't know...I saw that AT&T Hot Spots wasn't actually in the drawer but it shows up as a running app too. I don't plan on removing Kies Air or the Social Hub (for the moment) but I'd like to remove "Featured Apps" but when I go into Titanium Backup it'll ask me if I'm sure I want to do this since it's part of the framework so I've backed off of it for now...I'd like to know about these 4 apps and if they're safe to remove as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stickbo:
I used root explorer and did it manually. I lost count how many I ripped out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nybmx:
From this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Honestly I'd recommend installing Titanium Backup and doing a backup before you remove ANY apps. You simply never know if you might need them down the road for something. Sure 99% of the AT&T crap is crap, but there's no reason not to back them up first.

Also, if you're worried about it, buy the PRO version (of TB) and simply freeze ones you don't want to use. This isn't deleting them, it simply disables them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DefTaker:
I have the PRO version. I know about freezing but I was being lazy and I know there are much more adventurous people than me who've gone ahead and ripped things out. I didn't want to do the freeze app, okay seems safe to remove, repeat per next app deal. Like I said, I'm lazy...:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ahmed0054:
Some of these At&t apps i cant find under root explorer, for example featured apps. what would be the file name for featured apps?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
re: bloat/system apps

If you want to uninstall even more bloatware you need to get the app called

"SystemAppRemover" from the market. (everything will show up with this).

It makes it very easy to uninstall most any system apps.

The app has other functions too.

It's also best to flash a Nandroid backup of your rom before uninstalling

bloatware/system apps.

(use CWM Manager or CWM Recovery and NOT rom manager for backing up).

Good luck!

By finally offering me a HTC sensation exchange. I tried to love this phone...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eunkipark92:
Came from sensation. Screen resoultion, size is amazing. But I must say color on LG g2x is way better even though mine have light leak problem. I don't mind.

I hope u get the good one. Sensation have 2 types of screen. One is good one is washed out. And I hope yours doesn't have dusts under the screen. Oh and I hope the you get the good digiziter too. Lots of sensation comes with touch screen problem. Like being unresponsive. Oh and don't break the phone digitizer. You can't fix it by local shop cause after you fix it the digitizer becomes unreponsive ffor 15 sec everytime you turn on the screen. Yes, I'm a troll. Trololololololol

Quoted for truth ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sidezero:
1st G2X would freeze charging and reboot all the time in my pocket.

2nd G2X would freeze charging also and I'd find it black screened in my pocket every few days.

3rd G2X would reboot and have issues switching from data to wifi. It would show both but default to mobile data which has the worst signal at home.

Went through 3 batteries also.

I use my phone as a HTPC remote and alarm clock so these issues were pretty annoying. CM7 fixed most issues but there was still the APN issue. Looks like it's fixed now but oh well, the Sensation has been great thus far.

Based on what I've seen LG's QA process is utter ****.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] eelpout:
Recently put WP7-Mango on my HD2 and liking it so far. Actually a lot which surprise me a bit coming from Android. :)

I've discovered that even though I have a Windows Live ID setup both on the phone and Zune, and the update process works, it's not actually backing up the phone's data to C:\Users\<>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update as it should be. Zune has the playerID up in the corner. It's creating a key folder and properties.xml file, but that's about it. There's never buttons for backing up or restoring appearing with the update.

Zune knows about my app purchases and stuff but just isn't doing the backup... and thus no ability to restore. Is there some way to trick Zune in to doing this? I haven't connected it to any other computer. Do I need to tell Zune to "forget" this phone device and start over??
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] theozsnowman:
Ive noticed the same issue and also Xune is not storing my playlists, they are getting removed from both Xune and from the phone

Anyone have a solution to this at all?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] eelpout:
Actually yes, there is one, which I discovered by accident.

In the Update Cab Sender there is an option to do a backup first, followed by an installation. If you use a cab that you already have installed, it will first do the backup and then the cab installation will fail because it's not installing anything new. But there are no ill effects from this that I can see, so you get a free, Zune compatible backup in the process. :)

Hi guys,

Firstly LOVE Prime, keep up the good work!!

Got one (prob stupid question).

Ive read the boot animation should default to normal Prime boot after first update.... Mine doesn't, it always boot with the girl. What might be the reason? And how would I fix it?

Thanx Guys.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gladi8r:
Yeah, I had the same problem.

Go into data/local with a root file explorer and delete bootanimation.zip.

The original in system/local will work from then on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaNsA:
Oh NOES guys,

y u hatin on my bootanim :(

lol

out of curiosity though, do you prefer the fake BIOS POST bootanim over the awesomeness of my Zion bootanim?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roach2010:
Doh, numpty brain here forgot to add the removal script to the 2.0.3 update.

If you upgrade to 2.0.3 b4 the anim has been removed it stays. Next update will fix this.

Sorry CaNsA. It looks like the anim is Marmite.:rolleyes:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
To be honest, I didn't like either. I just prefer the stock Android banner and on my Droid it boots faster without the animation, I figure this may be the case on the Transformer as well. So you could make the best ever, and I'd still delete it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gladi8r:
I do prefer it. It's kind of clever. And it's full screen.

Red is not my favorite color, but it's the little window in the middle of the screen. Reminds me of ported cell phone crap. Too much of that already.

Sorry, no offense to the offensive. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaNsA:
Actually guys, cheers for the proper feedback.

Its a difficult to get a decent balance between quality and performance.
