[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NitrozKC:
Hi, I'm the dev/porter for this theme. I had a 3 month ban from XDA for reasons that were sorted etc. You'll probably remember me for porting BAT to the SGSII.

But, BETA 2 will be released tonight with the following fixes:

-Battery Percentage mod

-Framework themed black/white in relevant places

Coming in BETA 3 (Friday)

-Core GApps themed

-Changed some icons on the stock launcher

Any requests, let me know.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
Anyone else noticing that they have any dark spots on there screen that are slightly dimmer than other spots?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
BAMP

Okay, so I noticed that if I press on the screen a little harder than I should that it looks like the LCD under the glass is getting pressed down.

Is this something normal? I don't recall my fascinate ever having this problem? I mean.... yeah the fascinate had problems but not related to the screen.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cryptiq:
I don't see this on my Bionic. But my wife's DroidX has an issue similar to what you're describing. It doesn't take much pressure at all, just a normal press on the screen and she gets what looks like an oil slick effect. Does that sound similar to your issue? I know it's off topic, but I was reading some reviews of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and a lot of people are reporting an "oil slick" issue with the screen. So I'm wondering if they're all related and possibly a symptom of a particular screen design? I don't think the Tab uses a screen remotely similar to the Moto phones, but the symptoms seem very similar so perhaps they share some type of common design?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
When not pressing it looks kind of like this,

While pressing while playing a game it looks like an oil slick or like color streaks where the LCD is healing itself. Although now super noticeable you can totally see that there are some dark spots in the middle of the screen after I have used it for the last few months.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cryptiq:
If you have an image in your previous post, i'm not able to see it...but it sounds just like what my wife's droidX is doing...and the oil slick behavior from the galaxy tab. My wife's screen has been doing that for a few months now and I haven't seen any adverse effects, it just looks funny but works fine otherwise. I believe Samsung is taking back the affected tabs if there's a warranty claim...haven't tried pursuing the issue with my wife's phone tho.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cryptiq:
Possibly some good news for you...I just looked at my wife's DroidX last night, and the "oil slick" is gone. Couldn't see it with the screen on or off. I even tried pushing down pretty firmly in the area it was and nothing. Hopefully it goes away for you.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
No, it did not. I got a refurb, does the same thing. This one will be going back too.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] gbohen:
That's it!

I am having the same issue with my Bionic. I already returned the first one and got a replacement. The replacement was a refurb, which irks me..anyway, this refurb has the same problem and Moto says all they can do is send me another refurb.

This is a serious issue and I bet it's on a lot of their phones. It's not easy to see, so many people probably haven't noticed.

I am really pissed and I'm think about just using insurance to buy a completely different phone instead. :mad:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
How exactly do you go about using the insurance for another phone, I have gone through 3 already and every minute I am on the phone with VZW pushes one step closer to insanity?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
I noticed this on mine too.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
So based on that and, what I would assume some other people as well, that there is probably a general affliction to the device. It could be inferred that it is only a matter of time before people start to realize that there are dark spots on the screen and start to complain.

mistawolfe are you still using the bionic or have you totally switched to the RAZR? Does this issue manifest itself the same was with the RAZR and the BIONIC?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] blubyu87gt:
I have the same issue with the LCD distortion when pressed. It was a lot worse with the screen protector on. Not too noticeable now that its off. I figure if I scratch the crap out of my screen I will just get a re-furb sent for the distortion issue...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lockett:
I can't remember off the top of my head which forum i read this on but the dark spots are due to the construction and materials used to make the screen and isn't a defect at all. As for the "oil slick" effect, i can only imagine that to be an issue where the glass is thinner in certain spots and is actually pressing on the LCD, just like pressing on an LCD monitor.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
Well I went through 3 different Bionics at this point and after a few weeks they all get these dark spots.

Have a replacement Rezound on the way to replace the Bionic. It's too bad that the Bionic, for me, has had so many small issues because it's a solid device with a lot of potential.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Terror_1:
And the Rezound is also a turd.

First Verizon sends me a phone and a back cover and "forgot" the battery.

Then get the battery and power the damned thing on to find out I can't log into my google account because HTC "forgot" the ` backtick in the sense keyboard and also "forgot" that the stock android keyboard doesn't suck and doesn't take any effort to include.

I quit. There is obviously no winning.
[General Topics] munchy_cool:
wtf MAN ..i need to install a custom ROM on my SGS2 asap ...thanks man
[General Topics] F2504x4:
thank you for sharing, please keep working to keep us all inform so that we can learn to keep "them UN-informed"
[General Topics] clfosk:
No doubt Carrier IQ can catch you tethering, but I don't think this is their method for that. I received a tethering notice from my Windows Phone which is atleast said to not have CIQ. On the Samsung Focus, the message from AT&T is only received when utilizing wifi tethering, there are no issues if you're using USB tethering. If CIQ was actually installed on WP and was to blame, I would have received the message for both methods.
[General Topics] GSLEON3:
That is a great point. I always tethered using Windows Mobile & Windows Phone, but neither I nor anyone I know ever got a letter about it.

I am wondering if in your case it was Uber-High data usage? I got a message after using it three times on an	HTC Android Device.
[General Topics] KayxGee1:
Personally, I have no problem with just getting some data. It starts to alarm me when everything down to the keys I press are being collected.

I just sit and wonder if some man is sitting back in a computer chair laughing-

"Hey Jim! I told you that guy would forget to bring his girlfriend her keys! You owe me five smack-er-roonis!"

To me, it all comes down to who exactly is seeing my information. I was thinking today, when my contract was signed with AT&T in 2005 and have been doing so until now, I'm sure taking my information wasn't in the contract.

As you have done, first thing tomorrow I'm going to make a lot of phone calls and find out what is exactly is going to happen. With permission, unlike CarrierIQ, I'll record each conversation so you good folks here can hear the truth(or lies, you know salesman).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ccandjy:
Hello everyone. Does anyone know how to customize toggles in notification menu for stock froyo rom? I would like to tweak it myself rather than installing custom roms because my gps only functional well on the stock rom. Just a link as a reference of what I want. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877003 Thanks a lot.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
You have to adb pull system/app on your pc ....then open app folder and scroll to systemUI.apk ...you need apktool to do this....use apktool to decompile systemUI.apk ....then go to decomiled apk and open Res/drawable-hdpi ....scroll til you see the quickpanel.pngs ....there will be several of them...you can just replace them with new ones or use gimp editor to customize...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ccandjy:
Thanks for the info. But what I really need is to add/romove or switch the functions of these button. For example, to add the 6th icons to toggle mobile data.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] walter909:
I have the WRT54G2

Is there an dramatic improvement with using wireless N or dual wireless N

With programs such as splashtop and VLC streamer

basically is it worth getting another router over

With all the hype about cloud I would think the speed between router and end device would be important. If so any recommendations on routers to buy?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I don't know if it's true for the Tab, but for the SGS2, it hates D-Link routers of all shapes and sizes. The signal stength is weaker and it drains the battery more. It likes NetGear routers a lot. With a high-end NetGear I get excellent signal strength through two floors of poured concrete on both my SGS2 and Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] muzzy996:
IMO the improvement in upgrading a wireless router is more about improving overall bandwidth available to multiple wireless devices rather than pure throughput to a single device; at least as it pertains to devices such as a tablet.

For example, my local cable internet connection tops out at 10Mbps so the bandwidth available to a single device on my WRT54G2 router that I had before was more than adequate for me.

If however you're pushing things around the house between multiple wireless devices you may benefit from a dual wireless setup and segmenting out your wifi a little to take advantage of that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
Dual wireless N won't help unless you've got a lot of interference. Think about it this way: Wireless N routers can be had for about $20 now. Thats about as cheap as they'll get before they're replaced with another standard. So just go get one. Your laptop will thank you..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
-- Edit-- ok so I found out that my phone works perfectly when it's on Stock 2.1 without root.. 2.3 won't work for some reason .. What happens is when I root it .. My phone just doesn't want to charge; while charging it drains, but when on stock without root it charges perfectly .. I tried 2 batteries one from Sony and the one I'm using now is no name ... Can someone tell me what's going on? I really want to root and use CM 7 ...

EDIT: IF YOU WANT TO HELP ME LEARN, EMAIL ME AT help@dev.liamwli.co.uk

I am currently learning how too make Android apps.

I want too make a good app for everyone.

What do you want? Keep it simple - I'm still learning!

P.S How do you send raw commands in an app? Like asking for root etc.
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] andreas__:
Maybe an app that informs if a new ROM is available ;) like ROM manager but for gt540.. I don't know anything about apps developing so sorry if it's too hard :D

[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] lukemovement1:
if your realy intrested let me know and ill be happy to provide any help need to get you started, but creating an app will require lots of work. ive been doing it for 6 months and still fight to get my head round some of the consepts.

i have 2 differet scripts for sending raw terminal command, one as root, and one that works as a string.

also for nitifying someone for a rom update should be very easy, my app does it when it is launched. we should be able to make it into a background service somehow.

feel free to e-mail me at

lukemovement@gmail.com
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] liamwli:
That actually sounds easy. Set up an xml page on a remote server, and have the app parse it. I would have to manually edit it though.
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] liamwli:
Off topic:

What are all the differences between member, senior member, and recognised developer?
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] jhonnyx1000:
I think it changes according to the amount of posts. To be recognized developer, you must send a request and then the committee will decide.
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] -Grift-:
junior member 1-50

member 50-100

senior member 100-~~
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] liamwli:
Ah, thanks.

Is the recognised developer just roms, or apps etc? I may have it in the near future!
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] -Grift-:
some thing outstanding? like mike who is making ics, its a tough job and we are i think the first 10 phones to get it :D
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] liamwli:
You've lost me!
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] despotovski01:
Good luck on your app. I would love to test it. :)

I'm a senior member!
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] liamwli:
Hmm. Trying to make a flashcard app. Not getting very far!
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] lukemovement1:
u can just past the xml inside of a text box.
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] trex3491:
A useful app would be to be able to take hand written notes on a android tablet. There is NoteTakerHD on the iPad but nothing as great on android

Good luck man
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslugx:
Hi everybody, I installed legend 1.3, but there is a couple things doesn't feel right afterward.

1. How come i flashed 1.3, but in "About Phone" page, it only shows 1.1 under build number?

2. I flashed samurai kernel, but on the phone it still shows "2.6.35.7-I897UCKK4-CL614489" for Kernel Version?

Did I forget to install something before I flash them? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
The Legend 1.1 is probably an error from the dev. Mine says the same as well. The kernel name won't change because there isn't a source code for it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslugx:
thanks for the reply. i am wondering, how can I get BLN on it then?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
You can't. No I897 native GB rom/kernel will be able to use BLN for now. Not until source is released.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslugx:
thanks for the headup, is there any alternative BLN solution out there? it's kind of sux without the notification mod.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
That build id is a line in the build.prop located in /system. You can navigate there with you're favorite root file explore (or open it in your pc) aahs open the build.prop with any text editor.

The line you're looking for is:

ro.build.display.id=(whatever you would like it to say)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslugx:
I have to say Legend 1.3 does really have long battery life, but too bad it doesn't have BLN support, what can you guys tell me what can i do at this point to make my phone has back light notification?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Flash an I9000 ported ROM. Mosaic is the collective's. The same team that brings you legend. I hear they make good stuff ;) lmao.

But any I9000 ROM should support it.

Then install bln control app. That simple.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crt60:
Whoops, forgot to change that in build.prop, it still legend 1.3 its just the number wasn't changed, sorry bout that, will change it now, should be coming out with Legend 1.4 here shortly, I will make sure it is updated with the correct build number.
[HTC EVO 3D] twiztidninja:

Youre kidding me right? Please...tell me this is a troll...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Because it's not built for the Epic 4G Touch, it's built for one of the other GSII variants. It's looking for the phone to be a GT-I9100.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaveBlue:
Going out on a limb here, but I don't believe that version of CM7 will work on our phones. Something to do with CDMA versus non-CDMA. I'm sure someone else will correct me if I'm wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Onumis:
My bad all. I thought it would work on my version. This is the first time I've had a phone that's on multiple carriers so it's a bit confusing as to all what works on what. Coming from a G2 where there's not multiple options. Sorry for being a noob :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
No problem man. We were all noobs at one point. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
