Thanks for your work Joel, but how do you get past the screen after the lockscreen? I clicked on ok and the app drawer button and couldn't get the welcome screen to go away. Any luck?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ZaneKaminski:
I've found that in order for it to register "touches" with the trackpad, you need to move your finger a tiny bit while it's pressed down

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roni2915:
Hello all,

I'm currently a Samsung galaxy s2 user, just switched from using the iphone 4 because of all the rumors about the galaxy s2. And till now im impressed by everything it has to offer except its battery life.

I love my galaxy s2, but the only problem is battery life, and thats the main reason im being pulled over to buy the iphone 4s!!..:mad:

getting that isnt the problem..

I tried way too many custom ROMS, different kernels etc, but ended up with an average 6-7 hr battery life with heavy usage and that doesnt even involve listening to music while commuting. If i did that as well, im sure my battery wud barely last 5 hrs... which isnt ideal at all, im sure everyone feels the same way... :) Right now im on stock KI3 firmware, rooted. KI3 is slightly better than what bell gave me as stock - KG2.

now i want some strong points of why i shouldn't move back. I've been an iphone user since the 2g iphone and it was amazing! :)

Only if i could improve my battery life on galaxy s2 i wouldnt have these temptations to move to iphone again.

Should I move back to the iPhone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cangir:
no, galaxy s2 is the best !xD

my battery is very good so i don't care just try some kernels or roms
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious544d:
iPhone 4s is much better than SGS2 IMO.

Better size, better display (imo SAMOLED+'s colours are too cartoony), better resolution, better camera, better audio, much better battery and a much faster processor.

Also, iOS has proper dual core optimizations and actually makes good use of the A5 chip, wheras with SGS2, you'll have to wait for a stable ICS rom comes out.

Despite the negativity of the i4s, I personally think it'll be one of the most underrated phones this year.

But that's just my opinion.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warren.D:
My s2 often gives me 16+ hrs of heavy usage (my phone is from the first batch) my other half got a white s2 a few weeks ago and he has dreadful battery life. Both same firmware ect. Although mine is made in korea both battery and handset. His is made in china. Different colour mainboards too. Mines blue his is green.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kailkti:
Well just to make the point clear, you will never get your sgs 2 to have as much of a battery life as the IP4S. iOS is simply much better at handling battery life than android.

Now it depends on what you want really. Do you value battery life over functionality/choice?

Personally what do you expect of a phone with a dual core 1.2ghz processor? If you expect 12 hrs now that is simply idiocy. You have a laptop that can do that? I don't cuz mine lasts 2 hrs with heavy usage. I haven't read of any laptop being able to last 12 hrs of heavy usage either. No I don't expect a laptop to have a battery life like that either. Now this is a phone with a processor better than most if not all netbooks, it is not going to have a 8hr+ battery life with heavy usage just like a laptop.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blunted09:
I feel your pain with battery life. Also, screen burn in isshowing its face on mine too. But threw iphone is waaaaaay too locked down to make it an easy choice.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coedy:
Sounds like you dont have things set up correctly to me or your using some resource hogging apps.

Im on wifi all day, send between 40-70 sms a day, couple of phone calls, tweetdeck auto updating, around 20mins of music (well, podcast, but it is an audio file), auto updating of all my apps enabled in the market and the obvious hour or so web browsing and 10mins or so of minecraft when I sneak off for a break in the toilets and I get home with around 30%

Dont forget, your also comparing a closed up OS which has been around for a fair old while to an open one which is still reasonably new which each phone manufacturer has his way with before chucking the phones out ;)

Im not going to fight the android corner as you admitted yourself you are 'looking for reasons to not move back'. Which sounds as though you have already made up your mind.

If you want to go get a shiny fragile phone with a half eaten apple on it by all means do :) Glad you've at least tried Android though, your light years ahead of 90% of Iphone owners who live around here lol.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
must be something thats killing your battery in the background. I quite easily get over a day and between 5-6 hours screen on time. Longest ive had was 6hr 38 mins screen on.

Download better battery stats and see whats running in the background.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kailkti:
Lawl you all are missing a very important statement in his post. "HEAVY USAGE"

What is heavy usage? Web browsing, playing a 3d game, watching a video, recording a video, taking pictures, etc. So of course he is going to get 6-7hrs of battery life.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronMit:
I agree with the above post. find out whats draining your battery. Shouldn't be that low...unless you are just sitting on your sofa browsing constantly because your so excited about a new phone like i was.

Also you can buy a dock charger and extra batteries set for cheap together (ankhers set) so you never have to plug your phone into a charger again :)

But it sounds like you have alot of money to burn...then why not...being in a locked system isnt so bad when your willing to just buy every app and media at premium prices and your happy with the interface
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roni2915:
Thanks for the quick reply guys, and yes, i m loving my galaxy s2 as i mentioned earlier. And yes, im a heavy user, around 100 texts, playing 3d games (sandstorm, brothers in arms etc). I barely keep wifi on as i haf 6gb of data which is almost unlimited. and im getting 7 hrs, which apparently seems to be good. If thats the case then I have nothing to complain about...

And in terms of money, lol i dont have any... its just i could get an iphone if i sold this one... no way i could afford to keep both!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonsa:
u should wait untill the ICS rom is out. that should improve the battery life, because it will be customized to a dual core processor.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blubbi4ever:
Iphone 4S is quite a good phone, but I'm personally against Apple's politics regarding software and price. I don't want Itunes, no format support like FLAC or MKV, no Flash. Also Android has more customization abilities in themes and menues.

I like the big screen and weight on the GS2. Well, the battery life could be better on SGS 2. But there's a Samsung 2000mah battery available at the moment and you can easily replace the battery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THUDUK:
I have been in the same boat in fact I have swapped my Iphone 4 for a SGS2 three times, until finally I realise that the SGS2 really is a SuperPhone.

The reason you will find battery life not quite as good as the Iphone4, is basically down to the fact the Iphone is not actually doing a lot.

I waited until iOs5 before swapping back to this truly, greatest phone since the HD2, iOs5 really is a disappointment to say the least, you get a pull down bar that kinda copies Android to a point, but fails in the fact with its Iphone basic-ness yet again, the weather links to the most basic of weather apps, the notification animations appear at the top all very nicely, but the top bar doesn't state that notifications are listed within, they tried to match the Androids version but in true Iphone style, didn't leave in the design to allow users to feel its their notifications.

One thing you will never get away from even jailbroken is the fact you are not free to choose...you will never own your Iphone, it owns you, Android on the other hand is the opposite and with the SGS2, its power and freedom is far more adaptable than the iphone4.
[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
Hey guys I found a glitch/hack in 2.3.4/2.3.6 that changed the orientation of the Stock Launcher and App Drawer to Landscape.

No Root Required and no modifications were made to the OS itself. It was a mere coincidence that I even found this.

My Nexus S is running 2.3.6

Fifa 10: 1.0.41

Power Control Plus: 2.5.2

All I did was disable the lock screen using the Power Control Plus widget and then started playing Fifa 10 in the midst of it I had to put the phone down for a bit so I turned the screen off. After some time I picked up my phone and the app drawer strangely turned into landscape mode. I played around with it then pressed the home button(the on screen button, not the capacitive). The home screen was also landscape but weirdly enough the accelerometer didn't change the orientation. So I tired to launch an app and it kicked me into the Portrait mode when I tried to go to the home screen. I realized why this happened so I replicated it many times over, I was going to make this post and video some time ago but studies had consumed most of my time.

Technically this should work on any phone because the idea behind this is the same, the unlock screen kicks the phone back into portrait but it doesn't have the chance to because the lock screen is disabled in the first place.

I hope this hack/glitch can be worked on and and made into an app that changes the orientation of the phone for use regularly. The video will be up on Vimeo soon, it will take time to edit and modify uncompressed 1080p.

Why does your picture of the home screen in landscape look like the ADW launcher?
[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
I don't have ADW never tried it even, everything I have on the phone is stock. I have rooted the phone but I wasn't rooted when I first found this before upgrading to 2.3.6. try it out, I never had the chance to test this on someone else's phone. See the video for more details
[Nexus S Android Development] Deleted member 3843930:
I also encounter that effect time by time, but I can't reproduce it. It also happens for me on the lockscreen, which can also get landscape.

For me, I guess it has to do something with my Nexus' dock.
[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
I can replicate this anytime that's why I want some developers to try and actually make this something useful. Sometimes it's just easier to use the phone in landscape mode
[Nexus S Android Development] matt2053:
The dock has gone from squared to rounded?
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
I can make the launcher that has landscape mode enabled if you are interested. You only have to change one word in the source to achieve this.

[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
I didn't really understand that, sorry ery
[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
There are already launchers that do landscape mode but, it would be cool to see the stock launcher being forced into landscape mode without any mods except for an app or something. However what you're offering would certainly be appreciated!
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
When the launcher goes into landscape mode the dock looks like the older froyo dock because google was to lazy to update all the icons.

I'll post the launcher with landscape mode up soon and fix the dock to look like gingerbread.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
Rght that makes sense now, but it'll be a whole new launcher right? which sort of kills the purpose because there are already launchers available that do this. What I was hoping for is somehow forcing the stock launcher in the landscape mode, it might be harder but it would be a much better overall solution for ease of use. Not to mention many people could use that app, because a lot of people don't want to use another launcher you know?
[Nexus S Android Development] Corra:
you can make it switch between portrait and landscape following tha accelerometer data, or will it be fixed to a position?
[Nexus S Android Development] anishs:
with my suggestion and glitch the accelerometer data is neglected

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bass0324:
I have tried looking around to find out how to get the hulu plus app on the nook color. Is there anyway to do this without adjusting the build.prop of the nook, or is that the only way to make it work? If that is the only way, can someone point me in the right direction to make that work or tell me any bad things that will occur by adjusting this.

Thanks.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ruthienu:
Check rootzwiki forum. They have a version of thr hulu plus app that can be downloaded and restored using titanium backup . This version works on my nook color without editing the build.prop I think its in the thunderbolt forum.

If you download the app and zip files from there, place the three individual zip files in titanium backup folder. If you already have hulu installed, clear data for the app first and then uninstall it and may need to reboot, I had to do so with the inc2. Install the apk given but do not open the hulu app yet. Restore titanium backup files and enjoy hulu plus

So theres this developer name Dsexton702 mostly working at the SGS4G forum at the moment and he was one of the first devs in tjat communitee... Since then hes made ICBINB roms that are so smooth and responsive and is amazing at tweaking and scripting files. And that adrenaline shot people flashed was by him! So what i was thinking is trying to get a SGS II for him as a early christmas present. If you guys agree i will love to set up a thread and make fund for him. If you want to see his work go to the Galaxy S 4G forum and youll see he did great things for their communitee and i was pleased with my old SGS4G mostly because of him! So if anyones interest please let me know!

I am very aware of what both of us said. Are you aware that this isn't the first post about donating money towards a dev for a phone? Whatever happen to the old days when a dev would just buy a phone and dev for the fun of dev'in? I'm not saying that some devs don't deserve us donating every once in a while, but lets not make BAD-AP (buying a dev a phone) the new standard. To those who feel like donating more power to you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jessejames111981:
as a long time evo4g user I'm just not used to this buying a dev a phone thing. People bought the e4g because. I donated to devs before but only to those devs who already donated their free time to make something innovating for my phone. Make something unique for my current phone and I'll throw you a few bucks then.

If you used this guys roms, enjoyed them, feel free to throw him some money. But thats as far as I would personally go but I live in America whee people are free to do stuff I don't approve of or annoys me

This "donate" to dev thingy for a new device are getting outa hand. Stop living in the past. If the Dev was so good as you recalling, you wouldn't bought this phone. There is alot of devs for this device and having more will just cause as many roms from the same base and poeple will get bored.

So now we got a dev that makes kernel, another one that makes roms, one that makes themes and another ones that kangs everything. If there is a dev out there that can put windows phone 7 or ios on my phone, I will definitely donate to him/her.

That’s just it; people’s expectations are so high. I don’t develop but I do spend way too much time here on XDA. If you would have told me 2 years ago I’d spend at least a couple of hours a day looking at a forum on mobile phones I would have said you’re crazy. Imagine the time they take to put these ROMs together and post them for everyone’s enjoyment. Then to top it off they take the time to answer the same questions over & over again, not only is it a hobby it’s a fulltime job. I have no problem supporting developers and helping them get new phones, especially ones I’m familiar with. I’m not completely naive I know that they’ll move on to new phones sooner or later but by that point they’ll have made the current phone way better then it was when it was released. I understand that not everybody will give or can afford to give and that’s fine. Times are tough, speaking of which I need to get back to work.
