[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkrunish:
If I turn on my phone, Voice will work for texts for a while, but eventually it'll stop delivering new messages to me. On the right side of "Inbox" in Google Voice, I'll see that refresh animation but it will never stop. Then, I reboot my phone and it works and then eventually stops again.

It's been like this for a couple months. It worked a little better when I rooted my phone a month ago (haven't used any MOD's yet), but now it's back to doing that more often. I eventually had to enable notify via text message in the Google Voice settings, just to get messages.

Has anyone had this problem or have any idea on how to fix it? Thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luxferro:
try going into manage apps, and clear the data for google voice. After that when you run google voice, you'll probably have to go through the initial setup of google voice again. It might help, or might not. Either way, it only takes a couple minutes to try.

If that doesn't help, then it might be problem with your rom, or some other app.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkrunish:
Thanks for that. It seems to be working so far. I'll just have to do it whenever I have a problem from now on.

I've been trying to take the esn from my current phone and replace it on a smart phone (Moto Droid A855). I'm not trying to be able to use two phones at once I just want to be able to use the droid. I don't want to have to pay for the data since I have wifi and just want to have a smart phone with phone and texting. I have gotten very close to changing it but I don't know if what I'm doing will get me in trouble. What's your input on this? Btw the phone is on verizon and I own both phones.

Changing your ESN is against the law so in such telling you how to do it is against XDA rules.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaProtagonista:
Hello,

I'm really really new in terms of customization but of course I'd like to learn and try.

I have Launcher Pro installed and I wanted to change the dock.

When I click on the App Drawer Icon and select the png file I want to replace it with, it's just totally blank :confused:

Here is the icon I want to put (the 2nd one): thecustomandroid (dot) com /2011/10/docks-by-desylvia/

In fact I'm trying to get this overall look but with no tutorial it's not easy and I don't want theme packages, I prefer personal customization with different widgets etc. And I like that dock but I just can't find it anywhere. I've read it's from Gomorrah.

Anyway, I just need help with the PNG icon, I'll do some additional research for the rest :).

Oh and by the way this lock screen and the homescreen are from Desylvia.

Thanks in advance for your help.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ker0zene:
Hey guys,

I recently flashed the chris41's stock kernel after LoStKernel was giving me too many LoS. Since flashing (multiple times) I can't connect to wi-fi networks and I get an error message stating 'unable to save network'. My 4G keeps trying to connect despite being in coverage. Sounds like I borked the RIL somehow but re-flashing the stock StockCWM5.tar kernel or acs-eb30-clockwork-epic-touch-4g-sep-20-4-00-pm.tar haven't helped.

Any ideas? Full device reset? Flash a different kernel? Appreciate the help!

This is an AT&T phone this is why i want to unlock the SIM lock to AT&T so i could use somthing else with this phone..
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
Only sim unlocked phones can use the sony bootloader unlock service, you will have to pay one of the people here for a remote unlock if you want sim/bootloader unlocked.

Just a nother quick question...

since i have a 4G AT&T xperia play i can acctually unloack the bootloader and by re-flashing the ROM actually preform a SIM unlocking like it discribed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1034371

will this work on my AT&T 4G device ?

Nope, this link is for sim unlocked phones

I'm gonna use Alejandrissimo in the general forum to unlock my phone tonight...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labbala:
ok ... so just to make sure i got it right:

1. i need to first unlock my sim

2. i will be able than to unlock the bootloader

?

did i got it right ? since this is actually collides with what i'm reading here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1349669

Here you see that it was said that unlocking the SIM doesn't mean that you can unlock the bootload...

any response ?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
I insist: unlocking your sim won't unlock your bootloader, you will have to unlock it separately.

However, unlocking the bootloader automatically sim-unlocks the phone.

Thus, save yourself the grief, contact any of the unlockers mentioned in the thread of my signature, and just unlock the bootloader.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labbala:
I will since i'm seeing it getting more complex then i wanted.

but still i want just to understand if unlocking your sim won't unlock the bootloader but, after the sim is unloacked then i could use the bootload unloacker online from sony, no?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
No, you can't. The official Sony bootloader unlocking method is only valid for phones which were sold originally Sim-unlocked. Sim-unlocking an originally Sim locked phone will not make you eligible for the Sony bootloader unlocking method, so you would have to use Alejandrissimo's bootloader unlock method anyway.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labbala:
Thank you ! now i got it!

i hope this thread will be a good use for others as well.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
No matter what you do, you can NEVER use the official bootloader unlocker.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labbala:
I would like to thank Alejandrissimo for his quick and working unlocking method from remote!!! works wonderful!!!

Hi,

Can someone upload their Atrix Stock 4.5.91 Camera and Gallery APK? Or point me where I can download these APKs only?

Thanks. Hoping for the individual apks.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] omni_angel7:
Assuming nobody on stock/blur wants to help you out (I'm on CM7), acknowledge that you just need to download any blur ROM with those, and grab them out of the zip from /system/app. I would download one and do the work for you, but my internet is so slow I can't even Skype my girlfriend. Best of luck,

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] tuantuti:
here you go, i took it out from the original 4.5.91 zip file... but i guess you have to have blur for these apps to work (not install over CM7 camera and gallery).

I know this is a little old, but can anyone confirm that this cannot be installed over CM7? I can't stand the gallery app in CM7, and I wouldn't mind getting the blur one back.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Savant:
No you can't cm7 doesn't have blur or utilize it. It's standalone so you would have to do it on a non aosp rom.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] MJPollard:
My recommendation would be to download QuickPic from the Market. It's free, and IMHO it blows away both CM7's and Blur's galleries.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] swam1231:
Since moving to MIUI, was looking out for an alternative to the default folder options. Came across https://market.Android.com/details?id=com.utility.autoapporganizer Auto App Organizer and impressed with it pretty quickly. In addition to categorizing new apps during install, it auto categorizes already installed apps too. On installation, it placed 109 out of my 113 apps in correct folders. Try out and post your comments.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mezesdde:
Yes

I agree, Auto App Organizer is awesome!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ethereal_mist:
9 Cards Home Launcher is also worth trying.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Minataur:
I agree withSwam 1231, it's a nifty app with a lot of customization capabilities.

I stumbled on this app when I had this dreaded "no suficient storage" message :eek: when I tried to install another app and tried this app instead to check if I could install, it did and I'm sticking with it.

It has nice features like a hidden app category which is handy when you have a child fooling around in your device apps.

Another feature which could be handy is a backup option.

Only downside I found is the ugly app icon which looks like it came from a pre smartphone era, which is strange because it comes with a slick customization icon lib.

All in all, a pretty and a feature rich tool to categorize your apps.

[Droid 2 Global General] Sheradrax:
So my friend has a d2g and had backligjt issues which makes it hard to use it at the bar and such. They would Luke me to root and rom it and I was wondering if there is a way to tweak the lighting settings and fix this?
[Droid 2 Global General] ChristianPreachr:
The backlight issue is due to the gingerbread update. So rooting it would be the most sensible. However, after having a ton of problems rooting the new gingerbread update, I would suggest against it. Without using SBF back to 2.44 (Froyo) rooting is very difficult on the D2G. I ended up bricking my phone to the point that it wouldn't SBF.
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
Indeed, rooting any Motorola phone running Gingerbread is very difficult. You need to download a script or a program for your PC (called Droid3 One Click Root, or for those who like Windows and easymode, Pete's Motorola Root Tools), connect the phone via USB, run that script/program, and let it do its job. Takes a whopping 3 minutes, which is indeed soul-crushingly depressing. I also heard everyone complaining that it even fails to brick their phones. This is clearly an outrage.
[Droid 2 Global General] Sheradrax:
Thanks guys. :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DarkDvr:
WARNING: After some time the case has rubbed off on NT's trim and actually ruined its looks. DO NOT BUY THIS CASE. (I didn't edit my first impressions though)

I'm taking a bit for a risk that it will all fit nicely (since these are for nook color, which is allegedly same size as nook tablet). But I'm going out of country next Monday, and I wanted to it it before I leave. Oh, and "designer" cases in B&N stores are terribly overpriced.

So, here's what I got:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004UGLBV2/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004RDFXAI/ref=oh_o00_s00_i01_details

The case (Khomo Deluxe Synthetic Leather Case) has a nice stand that allows it to be placed both vertically (reading) and horizontally (watching videos). That's a must-have feature for a stand, IMO.

The screen protector is very much needed for NK, and not only to protect the glass - without the protector fingers don't glide so easily on NK screen.

So, I picked up "caseen GLARESHATTER Anti-Glare Screen Protector". Has good reviews, hopefully will fit perfectly.

I got a 2day shipping, they will be here on Thursday, Nov 17. I'll put em on and post pics here.

EDIT:

Ok, I received them. Here are my thoughts on both of them (mind you, this is after 1 hr of use, not long-term):

The case:

Looks - very presentable

Outside - leathery, pleasant to the touch

Inside - velvety, looks nice

Build - feels solid enough, but does bend easily and stays bent (may be a good thing, may be a bad thing)

Cut - perfect snug and cut to size

Fit - stays in well, feels like nook and case are one piece

Protection - corners are decenly covered, althought I wish they didn't make cut-outs for them

Jacks/buttons - Easy access to headphone jack and buttons

Mic - NO access to mic. Will need to make a hole

Stand - when standing verically or horizontally, it's a little flimsy, not as secure as I wanted it to be

The protection film:

Glare - does cut out the glare significantly

Matte - definitelly made the image "grainy" as any matte film does. Not sure if it's grainy enough for me to take it off and buy a 100% transparent one.

Installation - hardest screen I ever applied. No matter what I did, perfect application is impossible. I did it in a humid shower, clean hands, clean screen - still not as good as I want.

Touch - very pleasant to the touch, finger glides very easily.

Touch Sensitivity - perfect, didn't notice any problems at all.

Overall:

I like the case. I think for the price it does everything you want it to do, and does it relatively well.

I'm not sure if I like the film. It's matte, it cuts the glare, finger glides much easier now... but at the same time I have micro-bubbles at the corners that I can't get rid of, and image is grainy now. Wouldn't notice it when watching video, but when reading - definitely noticeable.

Yes, it is. Just go to B&N site and check ;)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DarkDvr:
GASP... price!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DarkDvr:
Phew, good to know =)

So we can just buy cheaper stuff for NC, and stick it on NK.

Cheaper and easier to find =)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lanwarrior:
Yeah, the price gone up now. I paid like $30 back then
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
I've used Zagg ISes on my digicam LCD screens for years. They are as good as it gets... if you want protection. But they may not be the best for something like the NT. The orange peel finish on the Zagg IMO will be a detriment to the screen viewing quality, which is one of the huge selling points of the Tablet.

I bought the B&N anti-glare screen, and even that has an effect on the viewing quality. Much as finger prints will show up, I think the best thing for the NT may be one of the crystal clear type screens.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DarkDvr:
Crystal-clear are the best, but they show fingerprints a lot and have lots of glare, unfrotunatelly.

In essence, you get to pick between the "grainy matte" effect on matte film or tons of glare from any bright light on the crystal clear film.

If you use the device in mostly dark places, I'd go with Crystal Clear stuff.

If you use it during the day, outside, or with bright lights around.. go with matte.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unrandomsam:
Since we have the ICS source can anyone think of the least invasive way to add a mod for it for the stock rom.

(Strange that flac files are associated with the stock media player).

Thinking about just taking the flac patch (or perhaps there is two) putting it into AOSP 2.3.4 and then trying replacing the whole stagefright. Is there a better way to do it. (Its certainly possible now but there may be all sorts of reasons why this may be a bad idea.)

I want to change as little as possible.

(Any proof that its impossible also accepted).

** Edit

Works in Simulator

The diff is attached - need to take external/flac from an ICS checkout.

Think all that is necessary now is to just increment 2 numbers in the framework.

(Maybe another 2 if we want it to work with mtp (And Windows Media Player sync).
