Can someone explain how to do this? I mean all I understood was the renaming part but from there on im lost. I would really love to use some icons from miui on octane. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
you would have to pull the icons out of the miui apk or zip then extract the drawable -hdpi folder out of the apk u want to modify reanem the icons to match the origonal apk then push back DO NOT USE COMPRESSION.... then reflahs the apk...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] josepresas:
Thanks raver. Lets see if I can do it lol

Octane is great btw :D

Under the MFG menu, Engineering Menu, Device Test, Sensor Test, GPS Test, System Settings, I found that my current server (for GPS positioning I guess) is supl.vodafone.com:7275

since I am not using Vodafone as my provider, do you thing I could change it for another one, like TIM's?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevyn82:
I changed to supl.posta.tim.it:7275 (my provider) and it worked! Now on the same menu, under GPS Test > Viewer it found my location and all the satellites in seconds!

Can someone tell me how to get rid of adw launcher in cm7 and replace it with go launcher using root explorer, ill hit the thanks button :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortydoggg:
Install whatever launcher you want to use.

Then, you will need the "home switcher for Froyo" app from the market to change your default launcher.

When you run the Home Switcher program, click on "clear default" and then go down the screen and click on "clear defaults", then finally press your home key on your phone. You should now see your options given.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
That is way over complicated. Its easier to do it this way:

1. Download Go launcher

2. Press home, set go launcher as default

3. Open titanium backup, find the adw launcher, and delete it

4. Done
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortydoggg:
Either way.

Troubleshooting Android market issues

Clearing the cache and data for the market app are probably the first things to try.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madquack:
Which market are you using?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
Roll back to the previous version, and give it a try.

Settings -> market -> uninstall updates

If that works, then you can stay on the previous version by freezing the "market updater" by using Titanium Backup...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RamAir02:
There wasn't a thread on this new device, so I figured I'd start one.

I've always strayed away from Moto devices and have been eagerly waiting for the Vigor and Nexus Prime. That said, the DROID RAZR looks like a worthy competitor.

With competitive specs, a nice big screen and a 7.1mm thickness, it seems like an amazing device. I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts...

I will still wait for the Prime and Vigor, but this device is looking so damn good right now with my available upgrade. Pre-order starts the 27th, but it probably wont drop until early November. We'll see on the Prime dates tonight and hopefully learn of concrete Vigor dates soon.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dmeadows013:
I think it's by far the best Moto device. I still like the Rezound because of the 1.5Ghz processor and Beats, and I do like Sense. From time to time, I take a break from Sense to try the new CM or MIUI, but always end up coming back. Also, the Rezound and GNexus will come out on November 11th according to a Verizon roadmap. We'll get a confirmation on the GNex tonight.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Marcismo55:
Moto RAZR + Locked Bootloader = No Thank you

:p

In all seriousness, this is probably the first Moto device that I would consider purchasing if it wasn't locked down. The specs are pretty nice and it's pretty thin...just like I prefer my ladies.

I also noticed on Droid Life the Razr went thru FCC with both LTE & GSM radios. That's pretty nice.

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/10/1...rives-at-the-fcc-lte-and-gsm-radios-included/
[Motorola Droid RAZR] br125:
Completely agree... it is a great looking phone, but that cannot overcome the locked bootloader.

kuddos to motorola for making some nice improvements after the bionic fiasco.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheWhiteBandito:
I can't personally stand the look of it. I've never really liked Moto's design though. And that horrid UI thrown on top of it just doesn't do it for me. And no ICS as of right now? Locked bootloader? Pass, pass, pass...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DustinBooyah:
Am I the only one who just now realized it's gonna be an amazing week for Verizon?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zerocool79346:
Looks pretty awesome, but I cannot and will not buy a phone with a locked bootloader. If I was interested in being locked down, I would buy the 4S in a heartbeat. The other reason I can't justify the Razr is because of the qHD display while still costing as much as the Rezound and Prime.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] T-Keith:
According to one leak they are all out on the 10th of November. Can't wait to see them in person, I really think I am leaning towards the RAZR. In the back of my head I think about ICS and larger screen, but the smaller better looking RAZR has me interested. Hopefully the bootloader will be figured out soon enough.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Fealakwen:
Nope. On Endgadget and Co, most comments say that Motorolala's bootloaders are hardly "perfectly safe". I love that phone too, but I will have to pass, cause we will never see any custom rom on it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fuster92:
but it's so beautifull...

I'm like a moth and a candle... hahaha
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RamAir02:
Looks like the RAZR will be getting ICS sometime after launch. Kind of makes the decision tougher, although after last night's event I'm in love with the Nexus. I just pray the LTE version isn't much thicker.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] T-Keith:
I know it's easy to jump to conclusions, but just because it has a locked bootloader doesn't mean it will always be that way. Look what HTC did, didn't motorola promise to start unlocking them? Battery is swapable, but maybe it will be still be replaceable with some disassembly. The only thing that can't possible improve is NFC. I really was looking forward to this, why did motorola leave this out?

No offense, but that's cheap and tacky, somewhat invasive, and won't last long before it has to be replaced. This method is simple and gets more to the root of the problem. Squeaking plastic rubbing together.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justabrake:
coming from the iphones from 2G-4 I'm missing things that Android doesn't have that I liked :(

Pandora sucks ( can’t scroll through the songs you played all day )

Youtube sucks (can’t pause and restart video)

AP news crashes ( all the time) keep sending reports

Ebay crashes -( I hate this apps looks ) keep sending reports

Web browser sucks ( Doesn’t import your computer browser bookmarks )

Battery sucks dies down to 50% within 2-1/2 hrs. or less

Car plug can’t charge phone fast enough (And I’m only browsing apps and websites ) could you imagine running maps rout.

Home plug takes to long to charge phone ( apple has a quicker charge)

Can’t print without Samsung printer ( I don’t really care )

I'm sure there are more but today it really got to me.

Are you rooted? if so what rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
1. What I lime best is using Google music since you can get any/all the music from your desktop put it in the cloud and stream all your own music without cluttering up your phone. J uploaded about 40Gbs of my music.

2. Not sure about YouTube as I know in the past I was able to pause and restart where I left off. But usually when I am playing something I watch it through to the end.

3. I know EBay had issues a LONG TIME AGO when I was in the Captivate so I just haven't used it or tried it.

4. I use Dolphin HD web browser as it has more settings I can muck around with, desktop mode works better for me, I can kind of theme it to my current theme. I never liked the stock browser.

5. Battery last me a minimum of 12 hours with heavy usage with usually 4 hours or so screen ON TIME. Usually surfing the web and xda. If you are getting ONLY 2 HOURS OR SO of screen time them something you have running in the back ground is eating up hour battery. Get os monitor from the market to see what is killing your battery life since that is NOT NORMAL.

6. I ahbent even had the need to use my car charger since my captivate, this battery for me goes a LONG WAY.

7. I ha enter tried printing at all, hopefully one day we will have a GOOD APP that will allow good wireless printing to any printer. But as your said I don't care too much about it though.

I know this may not help you but MOST ALL pro lens/ issues have been found in the past so if you find a specific issues/problem try Google searching it and I bet you can find a fix/different app that's better/ etc. Good luck

Didn't know that was a feature of Pandora, can't see the benefit. You can bookmark songs.

Tap the screen to pause YouTube. Drag the slider to rewind

Don't use AP

EBay all has never crashed for me on 3 phones

What browser imported favorites for iOS? Android can chrome-to-phone

Battery - whole book could be written here. Battery life will get much better after a few power cycles, plenty of things you can do to manage it, search is your friend

Car charger from att store works fine for me (this may also improve once you charge cycle your phone a few times)

Power adapter, see above

You and I both don't care about printing from phones. Did iOS do that?

Sounds like your best solution is to head to the store and return your phone. Its too hard to convince iPhone users to use android unless they want to ... you sound like you are determined to hate Android.

I actually agree with this statement. The beauty of smartphones is that, nowadays, there are apps to satisfy most needs. The beauty of Android is that if there isn't an app, you can modify things or even design your own app (if you have the knowledge). Android is less about, "I can't do this so I'm screwed," and more about, "I can't do this so I'll make a way."
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dxtra:
You can pause youtube. Tap the screen and press the Home button not the back button , the back button exits the app or any app. When you ready to go back. Press the YouTube icon not the widget, the widget opens to the main screen.

BTW No crashes here on any of those apps. And I do agree with everyone on here return your phone go back to iPhone. one less annoying user to deal here with. Always blaming the phone when 95% of the time they at fault.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
I don't mean to be harsh telling you to switch back, but based on experience here at xda over the past year has taught me there are a few user types. BB user generally stay with Android and enjoy it. There are two types of iOS user here. If the post starts "I had an iPhone, and I am disappointed android doesn't do this or that" that person generally never truly enjoys Android, they begrudgingly use Android and count down to the next iPhone or they return their phone. If the post starts "I had an iPhone, I love this and that about Android, but I have a few questions about Android" they generally stay and find the different way in android to replicate iOS features.

I came from iPhone, but I was excited. I had questions like visual voicemail, audiobook support, where to find settings (that is a mess in android, you never know if it's in settings, or in the app) etc. But, I would never go back.

It may save you a lot of frustration, and pain to just go back to what you know and love about iOS.

Android vs iOS will always start a heated argument here. In another thread someone made a very apt analogy, coming here and bringing up android vs iOS is like going into a crackhouse and starting a debate between crack and cookies.

So I'm also coming from an iPhone 4. But I've always kind of had a mentality that I wanted to try Android and never really had anything against it. Don't get me wrong, LOVED my iPhone (had a 3GS and then the 4) but after the 4S announcement, it was time for something new.

Anyway - A lot of your complaints don't really sound fair. Battery life... if you're REALLY getting that short of battery life, as others have said, you have a problem somewhere - and it likely is not the device. Even if the iPhone's battery life was that short there would be a serious problem.

Web browser sucks? This is Android - there are options. Personally I've been using Firefox Mobile since I can use it's Sync function and get all of my computer bookmarks automatically. Works fine for me.

I have had the eBay app crash on me a few times. But that was only when I was trying to run it the first time. Has not crashed since then.

AP Mobile widget is GARBAGE. I've been fighting with that stupid app using MBs of my data even though I've removed the widget, set the Refresh to None, and Force Stop'd it. Been through AT&T support, Samsung support, a complete wipe/reset and it still used many MBs of data when not in use - I'm talking 3-4 MB in about an hour - multiply that by a full month. Unfortunately the only option was to root it (yes, I said unfortunately - that shouldn't be necessary just to kill a pre-installed app and prevent it from using data). But I digress...

Can't print? But you don't care anyway? Why mention it?

So ya, anyway... I really do have to agree with the others. You had quite a few preconceptions about Android and are making it live up to them all by yourself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dxtra:
The main problem here is that most people don't like changes and that's with everything not just phone. They so used to doing things a certain way that any other ways either suck or iPhone way is better. Perfect example the op argument "The iPhone does it this way and because of that android suck". Pathetic. But then again since we are on at&t the majority of the subscribes are iPhone owners so expect silly threads like this all year long.

I used eBay on my phone to sell my Inspire without any issues.

Use Slacker instead of Pandora

Battery life is way better than my Inspire and was draining slower compared to my friends iphone4.

Here is my battery chart with 35% remaining. The large dip towards the right was 1:15 minutes of streaming Slacker via Bluetooth to my car. It was cached content, so not quite as bad as if it was downloading at the same time.

Also, display has been on for 2:12.

You probably bought a 3rd party non-Samsung car plug. The official Samsung car plug I have charges my GS2 just fine. I can use Google Maps/Navi and play pod casts at the same time and the phone still charges up.

Same for the home plug. The standard one is merely 700ma but you can purchase better one that is made for Samsung phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
I have both mac and android. Love my s2 but we can all admit that one thing android lacks is the simplicity of sync like itunes and icloud. Kies is good but you'd be ignorant to think it has the capabilities of icloud (formally mobileme) and itunes.

And samsung phones do charge a little slower than iphones, buy an extra battery and youll never need to plug your phone in ever again :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jivy26:
If you want to sync double twist does that. Upside you can download directly to the phone any music without having to plug in iTunes to play.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
Thanks for the recommendation but i fine Doubletwist useless. It re-sorts all my music into folders on my phone which i hate and im anal about that.

I download music on my phone and on my computer, so when i say SYNC i mean if i download something new on my phone and something new on my pc and i plug my phone in, new files from phone xfer to pc and vice versa without manual effort.

But yes, i do love freedom of just plugging it in.

Gonna try cheetah sync tomorrow...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Android is all about cloud sync, not cable sync. Different design philosophy.

For example, I NEVER back up my contacts on my phone - because they're automatically backed up to my Google account.

As to the car charger - If you were using an Apple car charger for this, blame Apple. They're the ones who refuse to follow published USB charging standards. iDevice chargers get treated by phones that follow the standards as a PC USB port, limiting charge current to 400 mA in the case of the GS2.

Also, it really sounds like you've got some sort of rogue app eating your battery and cranking the CPU. Might be part of the AT&T bloatware suite. One of the few benefits of Apple's "our way or the highway" approach is that they don't just apply it to users, they apply it to carriers too. Apple is the only manufacturer who has able to go say "go **** yourself" to AT&T when AT&T wanted to install their own bloatware onto a device.

Unfortunately, this is what iOS has done to the general public. It has 'dumb-down' everything to one button and holds their hand through everything.

You give an iOS user a Blackberry and I guarantee that the user will not how to set up the alarm 75% of the time because everything isn't laid out to them like it is on iOS.

There are people that are inquisitive and there are people that want everything handed to them. It's not about Apple vs Android vs Windows, it's all about what the user is expecting and how they want to handle change. I can give my parents an Android or iPhone and they will only need to know how to make phone calls with it, if they want to use the other features they press buttons and figure it out (which they did and learned how to text message....)
