I have to admit that if I decided to use a phone besides HTC it'd be Moto then LG. Can't stand Samsung's toyish feel and display.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] entropism:
Honestly, if I had an Android device as my personal phone and was offered up a corporate device, I'd get something different. Honestly, I'd get the Focus S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr Doom:
Wondering if anyone else has this issue.

I use the email app for work email via Exchange.

If i get a meeting invite there are a couple of small tabs in the email once opened: Message and Invite. Clicking on the invite tab shows me a page saying 'Calendar invite' then a box saying 'View in calendar' and options to accept/decline etc.

The problem i'm having is that if I hit 'View in calendar' it takes me to the correct day in the calendar but doesn't show me what time the meeting is at! Very frustrating. The only way I can see when an invite is for is to accept it. Which obviously I don't want to do without knowing what time it is.

Please can someone else using the Email app check to see if this happens for them too?

Used to prefer it in Sense on my Desire when it pulled the full invite info straight into the email itself. Much simpler.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr Doom:
Nobody else noticed this issue? Must be others out there using the Email app with their work email...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timshields:
I noticed this too. I don't know what the answer is, but I have noticed it.

Also, the detail of the appointment is very squashed and not easy to see. Any idea on how to expand this?

(The red section is the calendar invite detail)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thefa:
I too have seen this. Frustrating, I agree...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thefa:
Is it me only or this seems to be now fixed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codemonkey85:
Frankly, I check my calendar invites in the Email app:

That seems fine to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thefa:
I think this was not exactly the point of the original post. You would need to go to the invite tab and see if when checking your calendar, the event is there.

My two cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr Doom:
Yup that wasn't my point. And it's still not fixed.

The 'view in calendar' takes me to the correct day but doesn't indicate a time in the calendar app.

Most invites I get don't details of the meeting in the main email - depends whether they're sent from a Mac etc.

Can I get voodoo on my G2x with CM7 nightlies without having to install a custom kernel? Thanks!

EDIT: Obviously meant custom in the thread title not customer lol wasn't paying attention.

Nope, need a kernel that supports it. I find it weird because when I had a SGS 4G, you didn't need a custom kernel.
[HTC EVO 3D] evoRomz:
when i flashed a new rom, i did all necessary steps. when the rom was installing the first message said no md5, skipping. what does this mean and what should i do?
[HTC EVO 3D] netwokz:
Md5 sum is a method of verifying correct file size and integrity. If a rom has been modified, the md5 sum will change. Nothing really to worry about. The recovery is just checking ti see if the rom has an md5 to check, if not it skips that part.
[HTC EVO 3D] evoRomz:
thank you for quick response, and answering my question

No problem, glad I could help. Did I answer it fully for you?

Hello,

I have samsung i9003 from Movistar provider. It always stuck and restart with many applications that I must force to close and it give me this fatal error: kernel panic upload mode.

when I try to go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> running applications in order to remove installed applications, it immediately shutdown with that famous error.

I flash it many times with Odin3 v1.82 with different versions ( I9003XXKPE, I9003XXKPM,.....). it flash it successfully (All threads completed. succeed1/failed0) but it never erase the user data, and always this error: kernel panic upload mode.

I put it into recovery mode ( Press Volume up + Ok + Power ) to clear memory, but unfortunatly nothing cleared. Always same user data. We read in the screen phone: "Installing multi-csc : can't access to '/system/csc/XEC/system'."

Same thing if I tape *2767*3855# nothing cleared.

any solution to this problem ???

Many thanks in advance.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 850T5m:
Hey everyone, I recently got a new Android phone, Samsung galaxy s2x, it should have dual 4g capabilities. The speed isn't great compared to what others have been getting. I usually get around 3-4mbps, the Telus website says 7-14 should be attained...

My question is basically, in the wireless options, I can choose gsm, wcdma or both. Is wdcma considered hspa+ ?

I live in Montreal, where the Telus network should be fully developed. Highest speed I've got was 6mbps.

Anything wrong, or were my expectations too high when buying this phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 850T5m:
Also, my girlfriend has an iPhone4 with Telus also, its often quicker than mine on the net...and its a 3g phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
see this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1306045

there are some from Montreal they are getting great speed

the thing is with cell phones, it depends highly in your location and tower

also in Canada do not believe anything that says 4G it's all fake

our infrastructure is poor compared to the USA, at best we can only get good 3G speed even when you see 4G

even the Rogers LTE are no where near as good they also top out around 15 Mbps at its best, while the USA or other counterparts they get like 30 Mbps on LTE
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 850T5m:
So i'm stuck with slow speeds lol?

I kinda regret going with Telus, they have terrible reception as well as slow speeds...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
It really all depends on where you are when you take the tests. Here is mine from just 5 minutes ago.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Blue1k:
I just tested mine and I got 19 down and 4 up on Telus. Most days I get an average of 10. I live outside of Vancouver. Downtown I am lucky to get 3.

Telus has always given me faster speeds than Rogers. I am very happy with Telus's network.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] s13.240sx@hotmail.com:
I think you are just not tech savy enough to use a cell like the S2X. Try doing a speed test in your browser and you will see that the speed test.net app is crap. I get 21 mbps downlink on telus in mtl using speedtest.net in dolphin HD (using app I get 3-10mbps). Stop blaming the carriers. People like you are just never happy but its your own fault! Maybe also if you would test your phone outside your basement it would help! Mtl reception is flawless, actually reception in QC in general is great.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Striker333:
I have tried all the different modems from the kj3, vk1 and even the Blaze LB7 and different roms and I still get miserable speed on my phone. I have many friends with different phones even 3G phones that are doing alot better. I am getting speeds of less than 300 k downlaod with with full bars.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TheBrandonWRX:
This post fails so hard its unreal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
I think some people had similar problems as you. I don't remember exactly but some workarounds are using the supercharger script and running those 3g scripts or whatever it's called.

Someone if i recall correctly couldn't get fast data at all, he opted for a warranty exchange and that fixed it for him.

If anything you could try making your own thread in the Q&A area and maybe those people who had similar problems can answer it for you. Obviously it's not because of your location because your friends' phones get fast speed in the same location

Really missing a function like press and hold the Home button to see previous used apps to switch to.... I'm running with GoLauncherEX but it apparently doesn't have that ability.

Any easy way or app that can and still work with GoLauncher.

I would consider another Launcher but I've not tried any others.
[Kindle Fire General] mfisch@mfisch.com:
Market search for taskswitcher by shisho. Worked great for me. I use Adw but should work with any launcher including stock.

One home tap for switcher, two for real home.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Thanks that works fine.
[Kindle Fire General] boomn:
Another option is SwipePad with the Tasking add-on. Hold for a split-second at the corner or edge of the screen of your choice and then drag towards the center of the screen and a task switcher will pop up. Move to the task of your choice and let go to switch to it. You can switch really quick once you get the hang of it.
[Kindle Fire General] Printerscape:
Wow that's a freaking amazing app. I paid for the recent tasks addon (since I think that's necessary for multitasking).

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire General] ags29:
I think SwipePad is one of those "best kept secret" apps. I've been using it since it was released and cannot use an Android phone without it. It was the first app I downloaded from the market after rooting. Glad to see it gaining popularity though.
[Kindle Fire General] tex321:
This solution is working nice for me.
[Kindle Fire General] teookie:
I installed swipe pad and tasker but I cant figure out how to make my recent apps menu come up when I swipe. Can someone help me?
[Kindle Fire General] Mama Luigi:
I got SwipePad with Tasker as well and it seems the only way you can do it is to put a shortcut to Tasker in one of the boxes, swipe to it, and THEN it pulls up a menu of your recent apps. I ended up getting a refund for it because that's not what I wanted - I was hoping it would automatically populate the tiles with my recent apps instead of adding an extra step.

I'll have to try some of the other solutions mentioned in this thread.
[Kindle Fire General] boomn:
Open the settings for SwipePad and then go to the Hotspots tab where you choose which spot activates the normal swipepad. Click on a different hotspot and "recent tasks" will show up as an option. Once set up it does work like what you were hoping

Just to clarify for anyone else reading, the add-on required is "Tasking: SwipePad add-on", not to be confused with the unrelated "Tasker" app for scripting and automation
[Kindle Fire General] Mama Luigi:
Awesome, can't believe I missed that! I'll have to give it another shot.
[Kindle Fire General] labyrinthian:
Corners problem

I installed Swipe Pad and wondered... where have you been for all of my Fire life? Am surprised amazon hasn't absorbed them into their product since it is so easy and simple to jump.

Altho, I did have problems configuring the corners (might be the custom home bar down there), but configuring lower left panel for tasks didn't seem to have any problem.

BTW, what a great premise - give basic app for free, sell the advanced.

[Edit: Before you jump on this, I'm now having crashing of SwipePad when trying to get it to launch market or other shortcuts. Will contact developers and see if this is imminently fixable.]
[Kindle Fire General] rotsu:
How did you configure double home taps for ADW home screen?
[Kindle Fire General] bsoplinger:
You can also install button savior if you're rooted your Fire. It can come in handy for some full screen apps that rely on the non-existent hard buttons also. You just long press on the button savior home icon and you'll get the little icon list of recent apps. I have mine setup with a slight delay before it invokes but it defaults to instant on.
[Kindle Fire General] SenorDeuce:
Smart Taskbar

I tried swipepad and didn't find it easy to set up and use on the KF. I also didn't want to pay for the extra add-ons without being totally sure I liked it. Found smart taskbar and I've been really happy with it. Easier to pull up than swipepad and has recent tasks built in. I recommend it.
[Kindle Fire General] Mama Luigi:
Remember that with paid apps, you can try them out and get a refund if you uninstall within 15 minutes. But if you don't like how Swipepad works then having the Tasking addon won't be worth it.
[Kindle Fire General] esoh:
Can you use Swipepad w/o rooting?
[Kindle Fire General] ags29:
Well you need to get it from the Android market (which requires root to install), but I guess you can also sideload it. The app itself doesn't require root access.
[Kindle Fire General] hoss12300:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ShatBag1105:
I hope in not posting in the wrong part of this forum but I was freaked out today at the tmobile store. It all starts last night when I goggle map searched "bar and grill" and later searched on browser "screen names" looking for screen name ideas. So, this morning my wife and I go to tmobile to pay our bill. The clerk in an attempt to talk to my wife says "so did you find a good screen name last night? " She had no idea what he was talking about. Then he asks "how was the bar and grill? " I was immediately angry. I know there was recent proof carriers collect our data, but not only does tmobile collect logs of most things we do on our phones, the make it available to any ass working in a tmobile store! I would v believed it was that bad without seeing it for myself. I told him to give me a print out of that info he was reading but he refused. So now I'm on an AOSP BUILD. The rom I was using before was weapon btw. Why is spyware in custom roms? Does anyone work at tmobile that can confirm this? Are AOSP builds the only way to combat this? I can't believe any asshole at a tmobile store can just punch in a number and see everything we do on our phones!

I'd love to know what you guys think. Similar experiences?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] r4d14n7:
Well, I would assume all carriers log all data accessed (via mobile data connection at least) to supply to the gov't for profiling and legal purposes. But allowing Joe Schmoe at the store access to it is definitely a violation of your privacy. The contract probably allows them to monitor your activity but that's a bit of an overshare if you ask me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fabricatedhero:
Well you can always get check and or get rid of the Carrier IQ thing that tracks your information.

You need a rooted phone to do so and then go here to download the app because it is not on the android market.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Grooveoriented:
Regular Sales Reps or even Mgrs shouldn't have any access to that kind of information. None of the systems they use can dig that deep. They can see details about minutes, texts and your bill items, etc. but thats about the extent of it. Especially through CAM, Watson or Quickview. Although I would be surprised if the network engineers couldn't get that data if they were high up enough. The carrier iq thing isn't much of a surprise to me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Weapon is based on the stock 2.3.3 rom so the OP is plausible, not probable, but certainly not busted. It has just been enhanced but most of it is stock TMO rom.

But I do think the OP is pure BS. That type of data would not be available at the store level and an employee who revealed such info would be subject to immediate termination.

LOL! That is a funny story. I would bust out laughing if a t-mobile employee, whether in the store or someone sitting on the board of trustees would know that information. Only because even if they had all that information they wouldn't know what to do with it, because it's tmobile. You figure if they had all this information there would be zero bill disputes and random mystery charges on a monthly bill, or they would've known what the hell was going on with the g2x in may.

FYI: I have never received an ad targeted at me come even close to what I actually wanted to buy. These ad agencies need to go to back to the drawing board when it comes to ad targeting and start coming up with some new algorithms.
