[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Elemino:
I'm running a (more or less) stock / unrooted AT&T Skyrocket. I upgraded from the Infuse 4G. It was easy to remove the lock screen wallpaper on it, as it was simply done by setting lock screen wallpaper to none. The option isn't on the Skyrocket. Is there a way to remove the lock screen wallpaper (So live wallpaper is shown) without running a second locker?

I tried Go Locker, and occasionally it would cause me to have to unlock 2 screens... I'd prefer not to fix one problem by creating another. Any help is greatly appreciated...and yes I searched but no one has asked this before.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
Menu... Settings... Display.... Screen Display... Lockscreen Wallpaper. You can set to various Wallpaper Gallery images or image in your Gallery. I'm on 2.3.6 so not sure if this option exists on 2.3.5 guessing it does as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jermzz:
Do what the Guy says above. If you're like me and can't stand the stock lockscreen swipe, try widget locker... really nice customizable lockscreen app. You can completely customize the lockscreen. Slider style, wallpaper brighthtness and all.

And it disables the stock lockscreen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Elemino:
I want the lock screen, I use the pattern lock.

I want to REMOVE the wallpaper. I want the lock screen translucent like it was on my infuse. The option to set a gallery image is there. But the "none" option is missing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Elemino:
I suppose maybe I should pay someone to create an app that does this.

Hey so I just bought a used Verizon Galaxy 10.1 and noticed things got pretty slow after a day of use (not rooted) so I went looking into what might be going on. I assumed it was a memory thing and when I did a "cat /proc/meminfo" I was surprised to see only 740912 kb reported for MemTotal. Aren't these devices supposed to have 1GB not 741mb?

Does anyone else see the same number?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] yelvington:
I sent my Galaxy S Vibrant through the dishwasher, which didn't turn out particularly well, and the insurance company sent me this G2X as a replacement.

Pleasantly surprised that wifi tethering works out of the box. That was the big point of rooting the Samsung and upgrading first to Bionic (which was awesome) and then to CM7 (which was a big wad of bugs).

Any particular advantage to rooting? LG seems to be much better than Samsung as keeping up with the joneses.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] casey2077:
rooting

I recently got my G2x and after following the instructions for installing nvflash and CM recovery I began flashing many different ROMs. I had never done it before and instantly became an addict. My girlfriend who got hers on the same day kept hers stock. Her camera seems to be brighter, mine is faster with a lot less bloat. I did overclock my CPU which so far seems to work well with this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chris.wueste:
Bloat

It is worth rooting if for no other reason than to get all the bloat off. Try tsugi rom. It is super stable and lightning fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] erikiksaz:
Just the ordinary stuff:

-adfree

-UV kernels

-set CPU

-battery calibration

Those alone are worth the root.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] yelvington:
bloat

After having it overnight I can see the advantage of rooting to clean some of the autostart junk out of /system. A couple of times I've had it essentially lock up and the list of processes shown by ATK (when I can get to run) is insane.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Rooting isn't really required or hardly used. I DO use root explorer to make system changes and rom Manager if you crack flash.

But everyday stuff... Maybe titanium backup but I never used it either. Best to restore apps manually.

Most phones require root to install clockwork mod recovery. With Tegra devices you only need to nvflash which doesn't require root. Once you have a custom recovery you can flash roms and custom stuff without root.

So root isn't really important on the G2x unless you want to use a root required app.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] dmj2012:
I have my phone rooted and tight now only need root for two purposes: 1. I use App Quarantine to freeze unwanted system apps, and 2. I use SetCPU to underclock while the screen's off to save on battery use.

Subtle but important for my phone at least. It all depends on what you use your phone for. Rooting the G2x is pretty easy so it's simple enough to have it if you need it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kesara:
Got mine rooted and on CM7. Yes it depends on what you use it for and prefer. I like the custom options that CM7 provide like gestures and specific sound settings etc. In general you do get more freedom to do things and personalize, at the risk of messing it up if you are not careful.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Why are you using Advanced Task Killer?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iCraft:
Rooting can bring many nice things.

Such as better battery life, better phone performance, opening your phone up for countless customization options.

And a great benefit: no more waiting months and months for new firmware from T-Mobile, get the latest and greatest right away.

And that's just what iI know, I'm sure.there's many other ways.

[Xperia Play Android Development] psxpetey:
Now after reading the title I know what ure thinking 'this guy is a dumbasss' but i recently found a peice of developing software called unity and with this dev tool you can create apps in a certain code from what I understand and switch between platforms such as ios android xbox ps3 and windows mac linux from what i understand! of course when you switch youll have to change the aspect ratio and watnot.

I used to be an iphone user before i got my xperia play and i have quite a few beloved gaming apps. If i was to turn the ipa into .zip which i have done and unzipped all its contents and i then copied the contents to unity and switched platforms like i mentioned before how much work would that involved to get a simple game from ios to android. i suppose this is a question I should post on the unity site but I thought id post here first because there are many developers on xda who might have used unity software before unlike myself.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Reapman:
It doesn't work that way... you write the app with Unity, you can't just take someones binary blob and "convert" it with something like Unity. You would use Unity to write your own software. From scratch.

Trying to keep this as non technical as I can but basically the answer is no, it won't work. Sorry.
[Xperia Play Android Development] maddog00:
Could there be an iphone emulator created? Or is that not possible?
[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
Not possible iOS is not open source otherwise developers would be pounding out iOS ports to multiple devices. Unfortuantly there is no way to even possibly emulate it at this moment. Maybe in the future they will make it open source. whoo knows :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] bubblegumballoon:
Not possible. Not for at least another 10 years maybe.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atarii:
This is the best chance you have of an iOS emulator: iEmu (ignore the cancelled status)

Keep an eye on the dev's Twitter: https://twitter.com/#!/cmwdotme or the project homepage: http://www.iemu.org/index.php/Main_Page
[Xperia Play Android Development] bubblegumballoon:
The only fully functional iOS emulator that exists is apples own closed source emulator for the Mac, Its only really for app development though.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atarii:
Hence why iEmu is the best chance to get iOS on Android at the moment. Although it's based on QEMU, which is a full system emulator (hardware etc) so speed would be an issue. It's also still in very early development status
[Xperia Play Android Development] zaryab:
I don't understand why people are asking for ****ty UI ..................you guess right :P :P
[Xperia Play Android Development] bubblegumballoon:
They dont want the iOS interface they want the ability to use iOS apps on android. You cant deny that iOS has alot more quality apps and games than android does.

However getting an iOS emulator on android is something which we will probably never see ever. :P
[Xperia Play Android Development] psxpetey:
so what is in the app is a compiled version of the sofware which someone wrote which you cannot uncompile to switch platforms and then recompile is what i think your saying correct?
[Xperia Play Android Development] thatsupnow:
With the way apple acts they would probably throw a lawsuit at you for making that port. Ha ha ha!
[EVO 4G General] Kiisu888:
here's a mount I made for the htc Evo, I bought a $20 Telescope for my 4 yr old son and we were in the backyard looking at the moon and Jupiter which for $20 that's about all you get lol I decided after years of attempting to get the perfect moon shot with my phone and always getting that stupid tiny pin hole sized dot of white light no matter how big the moon looked,it would be a good idea to try it now that I have a telescope or more like just wanted to see what would happen.

and low and behold I got this View attachment 815817

so after 2 days of thinking of ways to attach my phone to the telescope I had a Jimmy Neutron brain blast and I came up with this by the way it took less than 5 minutes to construct I do this impromptu kinda of building a lot I call it Slap construction I created this with a milk jug cap, a $3 htc evo clip together case, and a small bit of a u-glue strip I wanted to make it so it would attach and detach easily so I melted the inside edges of the milk cap to furl in making a lip to clip over the lip on the telescope lens and after 30 secs with the lighter it shrank and rolled in, then I cut the center out, clipped a piece of a U-Glue strip and stretched it around the edge then I place it on the lens and centered the cases camera hole to the lens then pressed it then I put in my evo and tested it works pretty well and its centered instead of bouncing around that moon pic took 7 tries before I got a decent shot.

Heres the idea:

How about an app, that acts as a petition..... It could be designed to simply email the top 20 or so app developers that have popular apps on iPhone and Android, requesting their apps be ported to Windows Phone....

Just an idea I had....and I felt like this was the best place to vent it.

Yeh, that happens for the SDK Tools bit. Just go into android-sdk/temp and extract the tools zip file and copy that into the android-sdk folder, replacing the original and outdated tools folder. If that doesn't work and gives an error, move the zip file elsewhere e.g. desktop and extract and replace the original tools folder in android-sdk.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heocon77:
Internal storage only 128Mb while I finished up new ROM. HELP ME:mad::mad:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] OCedHrt:
I am cross-posting this from here because the issue is not limited to that particular ROM.

I have searched for /data/cachement, cachement, market duplicating downloads, etc. and have not found any discussion on this. I can't be the only one with this problem.

I would like to check other's /data/cachemnt folders and see if this is a systematic issue where APKs get orphaned.

------------

ROM: Mikhei777's Sense 3.5

Market Version: 2.3.6

APKs in cachemnt: Yes

------------

Summary finding:

Seems like only Sense ROMs have /cache mapped to data partition instead of cache partition (Thanks iamcxa).

The mapping of /cache to data partition causes app install failures because the market download can take up the space needed for the app install. This becomes a cyclic problem because each subsequent market download only frees up enough space for the download, not for the install.

Ideally, if /cache is contained within data partition, market should use hard links to install apks from /cache to /data/app. This allows cache to be cleaned up without affecting installed apps while not taking up extra space. I'm not sure if this is doable, but my feeling is that it is not without modifying market app. The app is designed for a separate cache partition and we cannot hard link across partitions.

I believe it is better for /cache to be mapped to cache partition:

-Mapping /cache to data partition creates the appearance of more internal storage, but it is used twice as fast and results in app install failures.

-Mapping /cache to cache partition should allow Android (or app level?) to manage the contents when it is full.

-No app install failures until you are really out of space on data partition.

-The free space of data partition is the actual usable space for app install.

-When downloading apks from market are greater than cache partition size, market app actually queues the downloads so that everything completes successfully when there is sufficient data partition space for installation.

Alternatively, we can link /cache to /sdcard/cachemnt:

-Same benefits as linking to /cache, but without using internal storage space.

-Market won't be able to manage cache usage until it fills sdcard, but user can clean this manually quite easily.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sportsstar89:
Yes i found them there only thing i could tell you if this really bothers you just delete them. Btw this is the wrong section :p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] OCedHrt:
Well, I wasn't sure if this was strictly a question. If something is hogging up 50% of my data partition, it's no longer a "it bothers me so I'm going to delete them" question. If this is not typical Android behavior, then there is a bug somewhere.

Just like other threads to track / collect data on other issues, such as GPS battery drain, or BT voice commands / no sound problem, etc, this is a problem.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sportsstar89:
Well first wyou have to figure out if more people have it
[HD2 Android NAND Development] OCedHrt:
That's the purpose of this thread :)

I am going to test the CWM backups I have for this.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] iamcxa:
did you means the /cache and /data/cachemnt have the same file?

if yes i can explain ... they are be linked together when all Sesne build runs initrd.gz.

*seems only sense builds have this link
[HD2 Android NAND Development] OCedHrt:
Right. The issue is that the contents are not cleaned up correctly. I assume that after Market installs an APK or if the download fails, it should delete the file. However, this is not happening and the file remains.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] iamcxa:
oh, i got what you mean. i have tried moved it to link to ram folder in my test build but seems not a good idea.:(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] OCedHrt:
Especially when it is taking up more than 100mb!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] iamcxa:
well ... that's serious. but I haven't see that, although I think can use a cron or a script let android clear it every day around sleep time , like when 4:00 am then try to kill all of /data/cachemnt/.apk or just kill all of them under /cachemnt/*.
