[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzumagos:
you use a runnymede sense 3.5 rom on a desire.

hardware limitations come into play. a SENSE rom (especially a

ported

sense 3.5 rom) uses some amount of RAM. desire has only 512mb of RAM. so when you play game, both system itself and the game use some RAM. then you go to the messaging app and apparently, in order to launch the sms app ram has to be freed (either for the app or maybe to ensure system stability(?)) so it kills the game (which probably consumes a LOT of ram, so that nothing else could be killed at this specific situation).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Yeah pretty much what dzumagos said.. lol..

Sense are RAM eaters, so you may have enough for a few apps, but then as soon as you open some more, Androids automatic task manager kills off the ones you aren't using to make space.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaidbackNikez:
I'd advice you to move to a ROM without Sense, much cleaner and more rapid response. "Silky Smooth"
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itachi1706:
You can also try this. Go to Settings>RCMix3D Tweaks>System setting(the 2nd tab)>Default Memory Configuration. I did that and my apps don't close itself often now.

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] quendil:
Try with Superoneclick 2.2 but this time instead of AUTO method use PSNEUTER method.

There is a small box on the upper right corner which can change that!

EDIT

And make sure UNKNOWN SOURCES is also enabled on your phone (Applications menu).

[Android Apps and Games] beseenwithgreen:
Hi, anyone know if there is a music app that you can set your playlist for a specific time (30 mins) and while it starts paying at the regular set volume, it gradually fades it out completely within that 30 minutes until turning off after the pre-set time (30 mins later)? Would be a nice way to go to sleep and such :) Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] chattyuk:
I don't know of a music app but I know the sleep tracking app Sleep as Android (great app btw!) has a feature where you can set a time such as 30 minutes and at that time the app will decrease and mute the media volume :).
[Android Apps and Games] StephenC82:
Or use tasker to do something like when music player is playing for x minutes set volume to y and then so on and so fourth.
[Android Apps and Games] beseenwithgreen:
Thanks...I cant seem to find that feature in the sleep as android app...maybe it comes in the paid version....tasker is pretty complicated for me as I never used it before....wish someone would make a simple user friendly sleep app that does this :)
[Android Apps and Games] terrymcnuggets:

[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
I have successfully rooted my phone and I have been successfully trying out some of the ROM's found here on xda. One thing I've noticed though is that every time I boot into any rom, I'm always stuck in roaming and I can't seem to get out.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'm running LG Optimus 2X P990HN on FIDO network.

Cheers,
[LG Optimus 2x] kolo2x:
Weird. Roaming is supposed to be a network setting and is not made automagically by the rom. Are there chances you enabled it before the flash?
[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
Nope, not that I'm aware of anyway, I wasn't in roaming before flashing and I wasn't in roaming after flashing back to original.

I'm stumped thus far :\
[LG Optimus 2x] kolo2x:
Ok. Hope your problem gets fixed. When you do, please report back in case someone gets in the same situation
[LG Optimus 2x] Metalshadowx2:
I just got my wife and I 2 brand new phones rooted and installed custom roms.. I know this is a radio issue cause its not picking up the fido network thus i have the same problem you do. Im trying to look into a different baseband as we speak.
[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
I tried the newest baseband i could find to no avail. i tried punching in all my apn settings manually, nothing. I was able to connect and register on FIDO umts and gsm networks but it still said I was in roaming.

I was doing a bit of googling earlier and some ppl were saying that it's got something to do with many of the roms are running gingerbread and that the p990hn has no love for gingerbread atm. I just kinda skimmed but that's what I got from it.

I'm going to see try a froyo rom for the 2x and see if I encounter the same issue.
[LG Optimus 2x] Metalshadowx2:
Wow that sucks... so we have to offically wait for them to release gingerbread?

---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

"Of course you wont be charged more.

Just an FYI, you are ON the Fido network even if it says Rogers or roaming on rogers. When you roam outside of the Fido/Rogers network, on something like AT&T or T-Mobile, then you are roaming on a different network, not only that, you get a text message to remind you that you are on a foreign network. Hope this helps."

That was quoted from the fido forums.. so apparently its already on fido but because the coding is not right and no official gingerbread support its considered roaming but wont be charged extra money.. I wont be able to know until next month and even still its a risk.
[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
I can't confirm without doing a bit more googling, but that's what it sounded like to me.
[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
/agree, but that clears it up a bit more. thanks for the post :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Metalshadowx2:
Ok i confirmed this info i found on the net and it works fine.

"APN: internet.fido.ca

User: fido

Pass: fido

After calling Fido, it seems that using National Datat Roaming on the Rogers network is allowed, and there is no extra billing since it's what the Nexus has to do as well. Cool. I guess someone can close this if they want."

So I just put that info in and it works.. I can make calls and use data... make sure you click use data roam
[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
awesome sauce. thanks again ^^
[LG Optimus 2x] Metalshadowx2:
Yeah its funny cause i flash roms and stuff on the side for alot of people and i had to do the same thing for someone who had a nexus S for fido and I always wanted to know that.. guess this answers it. I hope this can get sticked or something cause i know more Canadians are gonna get this phone and have the same problem
[LG Optimus 2x] taoli:
/agree again, with any luck we'll see a gingerbread update in the incredibly near future and this problem will cease to exist.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] joeyjojojjjjjj:
The battery may not last that long but it makes up for that with fast charge time. I wonder if it will charge even faster turned off.? Just wanted to throw that out there for ppl thinking of getting an a100 on black Friday.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] DaveRichardson:
True enough. Dead to full in about an hour, I find.

I'm hoping a bunch of people (devs especially) pick up this unsung tablet hero, too.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Diknak@gmail.com:
Yeah, it is certainly a great thing. There are 2 reasons why that is the case: the small battery and the 12v 1.5a current. Devices that charge via USB are usually around 6 volts, so it is a blessing and a curse that our device does not charge via USB.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
I'm sure that when we get this thing hacked and tweaked, we'll have some setting that allows us to USB charge.

With my a100, I last all day on a single charge. A few things that might help you guys prolong you charge:

Let the tablet die completely before you charge it again, and leave it off while it charges. Get an app killer, I use ATK (the one with the red x on the android). Leave all wireless connections off until you really need them (wifi and Bluetooth). Don't jack the brightness up unless outside in the sunshine, half brightness during the day everything is still clearly visible, and use the lowest brightness setting at night.

I am what's considered a power user (doing stuff on the device ALL the time) and I still get a solid 14 to 16 hours doing what I described above.

Hope this helps. :)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Diknak@gmail.com:
You should stop using ATK. . . . it is actually hurting your performance. With honeycomb, it is no longer necessary for you to manage memory yourself. Android acts differently than a PC; instead of keeping a lot of free memory, the Android OS will use up as much memory as possible to keep apps on standby for faster performance.

As soon as ATK kills your apps, Android OS just loads them right back up into memory, so it is pointless. Try it yourself: kill all apps using ATK, wait a minute, and pull ATK back up . . . you will notice that the list fills up without you opening any of those apps.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
Negative, sir. All apps I have killed using ATK have stayed killed til I access the app again.

ummmmm............ could you repeat that?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Diknak@gmail.com:
. . . the only thing I can say is check again later. . .

Android will try to use up the free memory automatically. You should not have an auto kill process running in Honeycomb. Yes, it was 100% necessary in Froyo and your device would come to a crawl if you didn't use it, but it isn't needed in Honeycomb; Android will automatically kill apps for you now.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
Did some more research of my own on that specific subject, and what you told me in this post, and the one before, is all basically part of a memory optimizer built right into honeycomb, so thanks! Never thought to look into that bbefore now, just always so used to using one...............

ummmmm............ could you repeat that?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] littleemp:
As I understand it, Android buffers apps in the memory, so it can quickly restore them to where you left off, making everything seem much more responsive and faster, so when you use a Task Killer, you're essentially start from scratch. Honeycomb will then proceed to kill the apps you aren't using to free up system resources if necessary.

It's not like our A100s are choking due to small memory anyway, I never seen even get close to 512MB, let alone the 1GB on board.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
Yea, my first smart phone was a blackberry, so I got used to having to close completely out of all my apps when I was done because of the lag it caused in the blackberry if you didn't. I still do that now, but its cool that android has already worked that into the system. Just one more justification for me being an android addict! :-D
[HTC Amaze 4G] theGnartist:
Edit: problem solved.

I had already tried reflashing CWM but to no avail. I always saw 'update complete' but when trying to get into recovery it would fail to get to CWM. I retried it again and this time it seemed to take. Then it was just a matter of going into CWM and flashing the untouched quick sense rom.

Thanks.

[Motorola Droid X2] duskinv:
Was curious if anyone else that uses this launcher is having issues with icons changing back to the standard eclipse icons, not completely sure if its adw but thinking it is. I lock my desktop after changing the icon images and they maintain until I rotate my phone then about three icons revert back to standard eclipse icons.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
did u try making adw a system app?

maybe even deleting stock eclipse launcher all together if u make adw system app...

[Kindle Fire General] wschalle:
I've gotten connectbot SSH to work perfectly on my Kindle Fire, and thought I'd share.

Difficulty: prohibitive for the non-technically oriented.

First, root the kindle. Plenty of guides on this via Google, but I used this one.

Next, get android market and a third party launcher like GO launcher installed. Again, plenty of guides out there for this, but I used this one.

Next, install connectbot ssh and Hacker's Keyboard via the android market.

Follow the instructions in this guide to use the hackers keyboard, but instead of the database string they give you for the swiftkey keyboard, put in org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard/.LatinIME .

This should allow you to long-hold a text input field and select the hacker's keyboard as your input method.

Switch the hacker's keyboard's settings to always use the full keyboard.

You should now be able to use connectbot ssh to connect to a server because unlike the kindle fire's keyboard, you'll always have access to the enter key.

Once in an ssh session, you will need to switch back to the kindle keyboard in order to quit or do anything else because of the lack of the home key when the keyboard is displayed. Silly amazon.

But that's a roundabout way to be able to use connectbot well.
[Kindle Fire General] bkcorwin:
As an update to this, the issue with no return key on the keyboard was tagged

%go to the connectbot webpage and look at the issues log% (can't post links)

The fix is to recompile connectbot from source while changing the EditText input type fields. This new apk can then be sideloaded onto the fire without requiring root.

The changes are described in the messages located at the link above. The recompile process is not that complicated.

I am not the one who fixed the issue, I am just passing along the message, with verification that it works.

[Kindle Fire General] grifferton:
Confirmed this works well.

Another way to get the Home button bar is to press the Settings portion of the notification bar.
[HTC Sensation] PlanBForOpenOffice:
I wonder if others see this too or if my HTC Sensation 4G is broken.

When I'm in Google Navigation I often see the position 200 ft east of the highway.

I might add that I run the phone w/o a data plan so I'm loading the plan over WiFi and then start driving. It does not seem to make much of a difference if I wait for a stable GPS fix or just start driving an let it fix on the road.

The behavior is very annoying, as the Navigation app grabs on to parallel or incoming side roads and reroutes all the time, wasting lots of battery and heating up the device.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Do you have a case on your phone? If so, try the app without the case to see if you get the same results.

I get about 20 ft error (average). But it can jump up to 50 or so. But I have a MIUI installed. Also adding that I am on a data plan and I believe using cell towers in conjunction of gps narrows down the error.
[HTC Sensation] PlanBForOpenOffice:
No case

Thanks, really good question, but my phone is naked so to speak. I don't use any case.

Unfortunately I have learned that Assisted GPS (AGPS) is a feature that does not work with cell towers, but with a data connection. Only if a data connection is present can the helping hand of assisted GPS (search Wikipedia for assisted GPS) work to find you a faster GPS fix.

Do you use Google navigation and do you see similar issues, like position jumping off the highway and attempting to enter the highway from a side road?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Once and a while but I cannot reproduce it.

You can try some of the fixes from crypted in the dev section. Just keep a backup of your gps.conf file if you want to test it. But the fix is for AGPS use.

What you can try is possibly sygic, but it's not free. I think its like 17 bux. But you can try it for a week.

S-pen toggle ICS keyboard

love this ICS keyboard layout (having such a small space bar on others just pisses me off), but is there any way to add the Pen input for it on the SGN? kinda defeats the purpose of it on this handset if you can't use it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jason370:
Swype is by far the best. It's so easy and simple and forgiving. I barely even hit my intended letters and it almost always knows what I'm typing. The idea of taping out messages or emails seems archaic now. Especially with the s-pen....it's just such an effortless pleasure.

Takes a day, max. That being said, is love to be able to use Swype on the ics keyboard.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
I tried the keyboad but have no comment as of now. Why? Because it still lags just like the previous other keyboards I've tried, if your a fast texter like myself the phone is slow & cannot catch up which leads to mistakes in EVERY word I write, it's a nightmare...

I hope they fix this issue in the next update.

Currently using ''smart keyboard pro'' which I think is one of the BEST keyboards, also being VERY customizable & comes with several great skins, all of which are great in their own way, even the colours you can change...

I think the note will be FAR superior once it gets the ice cream update and will be even smoother and faster than what it already is.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Johnmcl7:
I found it initially lagged but after turning off most of the features it works OK now aside from occasional lags which I assume is due to some other application slowing it down. Its auto correct can be intermittent but I have it turned down as I don't want it too aggressive

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rehabray:
If you are just getting it it won't be on gingerbread yet. Mine wanted to update to gb shortly after I left the store. I think "alpharevx" works for froyo. If you do update to gb you'll want to use "revolutionary.io". This will give you s-off. I used revolutionary.io so that's the one I know. So once you've got s-off with rev it'll let you install "clockwork recovery mod". I think it gives you the option to root also. I actually lost my internet connection after getting s-off so I had to push cwr and superuser with abd.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FatGuyWithWifi:
it is gingerbread (2.3.4 to be exact) and ive googled it before. the issue is that im using ubuntu ad idk how to run revolutionary on ubuntu
