Haven't you heard the news?

You can't make audio/video calls on Skype yet, no microphone is supported as of today.

You can only use it for IM.

apk is here
[Kindle Fire General] a1exus:
i think i saw someone said that if your headset has 3 pins that'd work as mic, i use that headset w/ my android phone all the time, so i should be able to use it w/ kindle
[Kindle Fire General] killyy:
It has been said a lot about those mics in that thread, but the OP made 2 different opinions about using skype. The other users only used those mics with Voice Recording(Tape-a-talk app I think), nobody was able to make a call with skype.

Could you please share your experience with the 3 pins microphone? (I haven't got any of them so I can't try)
[Kindle Fire General] a1exus:
Crashes for me...
[Kindle Fire General] DataPhreak:
Crashes for me as well. I was hopeful given the threads about 3 pin mic support. I have extra headsets--if you dm I'll send you one.
[Kindle Fire General] gruuvin:
I only tried voice calling the Echo / Sound Test Service, and it doesn't crash. However, it does just hang up after it rings.
[Kindle Fire General] terracode:
I was able to launch the Skype apk attached to this thread successfully. It allowed me to make an outgoing call with the Fire and using the Edutige EIM-001 mic, but it disconnected the call a second or two after I picked up the call on my cell. I wasn't able to hear my voice when I called my cell since it disconnected so quickly. Unfortunately this is a mic only with a TRRS connector so the speakers are disconnected when it is plugged in. I am going to do some tests to see if I can rig the mic to work without causing Fire speaker disconnect. I still have to test with Google Voice.
[Kindle Fire General] susja:
I would be interested to know about it very much. So far I have no luck to make a call using mic
[Kindle Fire General] troydog:
I been working on the mic problem all night. So far I think this tablet is missing something. Skype loads but wen making a call it does not see a mic at all.

Changing settings I have got the mic to work with a recorder for a test done a 20 min voice test no problems at all. But other apps like talking tom so on give error of no mic found.

Still working on this but not seeing what the problem could be.
[Kindle Fire General] susja:
I have a successful call using Google Voice but unfortunately only one direction :)

I mean I could make a call and the other party could receive this call. The problem is that I could hear what that party talk but I can't get his voice. It looks that it works only incoming direction ... but it looks to me that mic itself is ok.

Anyone has has better experience?
[Kindle Fire General] terracode:
What are the changes that you made? Were you using a standard headset mic?

Sounds promising....
[Kindle Fire General] susja:

[Droid X Themes and Apps] bennettvonbennett:
I'm not sure when it happened - but after the latest update to Maps I noticed that when I use the (Google) Navigation app the arrow direction does not align to my direction of travel but instead maintains a "North is up" alignment.

previously hitting the blue arrow would result in the screen aligning such that the direction of travel would be "up".

to confirm, I used the Google Navigation app on my Dad's Incredible and found that his behaves as mine used to - that is the direction of travel (arrow) becomes "up" by default - or whenever the blue arrow is pressed.

I seem to remember that my Navigation has been like this for a few months now - it *definitely* was *not* like this for the first 9 months or so I used the phone as a navigation device!

I have tried calibrating the compass - but no joy.

this is more than just a small annoyance - since the phone *always* shows the map oriented as North being "up", then even tho the direction displayed is technically correct it is VERY easy to go the wrong way...

for example: just now I told the phone I want to go to an address directly West of my location - as I'm sitting here I have the top of my phone pointing approx due west and it's showing that direction as "North" and displaying an arrow for the direction I want to go - West - as 90° to the right of North... which is correct BUT if you just look at the arrow it LOOKS like it's telling you to turn right - which would take me South!!

does any one know what's going on here?

I buy everything online, because Media Markt and Saturn dont have anything there for Galaxy Note and if they have something then overpriced.

at the moment my homescreens loop from the home page all the way through the 7 screens and back to the home page ,with the official rom i got onthe phone you had to flick back to the first home page but not now it just keeps on looping round

ive tried to find some way of fixing this can you help , i have downloaded the latest i900XXKL1 firmware
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
That is normal with all new firmware. It was introduced in 2.3.5 I think, maybe even 2.3.4. Its a new feature.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michalpo:
Hi,

so I had (and probably still have) problem with market (process com.android.vending). I decided to wipe all data (reset all stuff) from settings.

Now phone stops while loading (SE logo), it seems to me that it is working, but launcher is gone (I used go launcher). I thought - if I wipe and reset all data, original launcher will take go launcher`s place, but it appears to me, that I am left with no launcher... :/

So I tried to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847970 use this method. When I had same issue with launchers, it helped, but now it is not able to find phone (probably due to reset settings? ).

What would be my next step? :eek:

[Motorola Droid 3] pecosROB:
I have looked around the Droid 3 forums but cannot find it, perhaps my search skills just suck right now.

How do you remove the default Motorola lock screen? I use widget locker and every now and then I have to unlock the phone twice. It's pretty annoying. Anyone know how to do this?

I have rooted and ran the script to remove bloatware, as provided by mr. psousa. I need to donate!

And I know it says you're supposed to post Questions in the Q&A section... but I don't see one for the Droid3! Just 4 sections... general, accessories, development, and themes/apps.
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
There should be an option in WidgetLocker to disable the lock screen.
[Motorola Droid 3] pecosROB:
Thanks, I'll poke around in there more. I thought I saw that option awhile back (before I was rooted) but didn't know if I should look for something that wasn't there.

Edit:

Only saw the "replace lockscreen with Widget Locker when possible." In the past before I rooted it would sometimes make me swipe both screens but so far since rooting it hasn't asked me to do the default screen... let's hope it stays like this!
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
You can flash a different ROM. CM7 or CM9 (pre-alpha), or Liberty all have customizable lock screens. I had the same issue as you before I flashed to Liberty 2.0
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
There are root options in Widgetlocker, 'replace lockscreen with root access', or something like that. Not sure where the option is, don't have it installed.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
That's the best way. I think its under advanced settings. I never had to double unlock

2900MAH FEIPUSI @ Ebay

Anyone tried it yet?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] xAnimal5:
Most aftermarket batteries give about 60-90% of the OEM battery's lifespan, even the extended batteries only give a little more.

I doubt it will give more life than the OEM battery because until micro battery cell technology is researched more by Sammy/other battery providers, most batteries give life based on size.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dscline:
Welcome to the world of marketing. If you advertise a battery on ebay as 2900 mAh, and one as 2500 mAh, which one will sell? If you sell a bettery on ebay as 2900 mAh, but it's no better than a 2500 mAh battery, how many people are going to test it and manage to get their money back? You can find all kinds of "off-brand" batteries on ebay that miraculously have better performance that OEM and/or brand name batteries. How is it that these small nameless companies can always figure out technology to make something better and sell it for less than the big companies with bigger budgets? ;) As xAnimal5 suggests, if it's physically the same size, it's very doubtful that it really performs any better than the original.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] metus666:
I just asked whether someone has tried it yet, I wasn't intending to buy it any time soon.

2500mAh is already an amazing amount of juice, 2900mAh seemed a bit unrealistic to me too. But considering the price it's worth the bet I guess.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] RMXO:
I'm afraid to try these batteries cus it would royally suck if the battery damage my phone in the process. But, if Sammy were to come out with one, I would defiantly buy one.

So, can you share your results? I'm tempted to buy one of them too and other that claims 3000MAH.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Mister B:
Do not buy anything from ecell (linked above) that company overprices low quality good with false claims.

The Gold ones are not cells from Japan but the same cell you get if you buy any cheap china battery.

Feipusi, Andida are easily found & reality is they will not reach stated capacity & will be close/little less than a standard sized cell.

These brands also have no working temp sensor & jst feed constant reading of around 23<>25degC.

Having said this if bought for the right price (4to8USD) they are an ok budget replacement or spare & easily sourced for those in areas with limited sources.

Just don't expect capacity gains & don't pay $15 for a $6 battery ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] cka3o4nuk:
and where to find them (mean Feipusi) for 6$?

my friend got Feipusi battery for atrix 2 and it realy do better than stock
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Mister B:
Hong Kong, Kowloon. Due to its proximity to Shenzhen it full of this stuff at good cheap prices if shop around a little.

If not in Asia region then you looking at eBay ect, have seen HD2 & Topaz Feipusi on eBay for less than $5 delivered & that gives you idea of real battery value.

Stay away from ecell as they fill adverts with incorrect specifications & charge more than twice the price for lying to you ...

If take a bit time Feipusi for Note should be found for $8<>$9 inc WW shipping or maybe less.

Don't expect it to be better than original in capacity or quality.

A new original cell compared to any cheap china new cell (same physical size) will win hands down. Most people test badly & compare their nice new cell to a half dead original or use testing methods of no statistical value.

Also be aware you will have no working battery temp sensor & cheaper cells may not last long before large capacity loss occurs & cell starts swelling.

For cheap price they are good spares & great for people with no local OEM spares but for high prices you are just giving more money the US & West ain't got to the grinning Chinese ...

Buy and pay wisely ...

[HTC Sensation] Excalibur6677:
Hello Everyone,

I recently bought a 16gb sdcard for my sensation with CM7 rom. Everything has been working great (cyanogenmod is awesome!) and then i began randomly getting the sd card error message. My phone randomly unmounts the sd card and of course when that happens my phone is pretty much useless because all of my apps are on the sd card. I was so excited about the 16gb chip but now I'm starting to think that I should just go back to the 8gb and call it a day...... any suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] Tromador:
Firstly, it's unlikely to be the ROM. Lots of people use CM7.

If it were me I would first of all pop the back and eject, then reinstall the SDCard, as it may not be seated correctly.

If that didn't resolve the issue, I would inspect the contacts on both the card and in the socket, to make sure there wasn't an obvious bit of dirt or something which might be causing an intermittent contact.

Replacing the 8GB and running with that for a while might be a good test. If it runs fine with the 8GB, then likely the new card is faulty and perhaps you should take it back for a replacement.

Finally, I would always recommend using a good brand of SDCard. If you are investing in a nice phone (or a contract which comes with a nice phone) then you should also pay the few extra bucks for decent quality accessories.

This is not my first time asking this but I have had limited response so far.

(Mods if you feel this thread should be deleted because of that feel free)

I think many of us do like the freedom of using other launchers then the stock SE one, but many of the new widgets that came with 2.3.3 only work on the SE homescreen. The timescape widget being the main one, but now also the friends games, music and videos sharing etc...

I would like to request if anyone has any experience or knowledge in this could they have a look at the possibilty of making these widgets available on third party homescreens. I do not have a clue where to begin on this, except to ask for help....

Lets see what can be done...

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
It's next to impossible, at least for most of the widgets.

If a widget is hardcoded to work on a specific launcher, only thing you could do (and might very well not even work in the first place)

is edit another launcher accordingly to accomodate it.

But that generally is inconvenient as 3rd party launchers available in the Market are updated often.

So, this is a no-go. :(
