[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:
Thanks for this. I did disable notifications for the Gmail app, which worked like a charm.

As to the pop3 mail, I did not get an inbox full of unread mail when I set it up.

Perhaps the Sense mail has been improved? I am familiar with what you are describing, but that is not the behavior I am seeing.
[HTC Rezound] BVKnight:
You can hit that little thanks button below my post. ;)

This issue happened for me on my Rezound, so we are talking about the same Sense version. When I set it up, I didn't get an inbox full of unread messages either, but every message I got from then on wouldn't get marked in Sense mail as unread unless I viewed it from within that app. So, for example, I could get a new gmail message in the gmail app/sense mail, and view it in the gmail app/web interface, but even after refreshing the sense mail it still shows up as unread. Eventually I had to remove the gmail account in sense mail and set it up manually as an IMAP.

An HTC rep responded to an email of mine and basically told me that manual IMAP was the only way to get around the issue. But kudos to you if everything is working!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Hi, just after some advice about huawei roms for the X5. The x5 section on XDA is a bit all over the place with information scattered everywhere unlike the u8150 which has no section of it's own, but has a great wiki.

Seems that development is pretty solid for GB roms for this phone as there are multiple roms which are very close to being perfect and also GB is being released for this phone on the 30th in theory ;-).

Main 2.3 roms seem to be MIUI, CM7 and Oxygen and a long awaited for Huawei approved one.

Main 2.2 roms seem to be B160, FLB and Void

MIUI:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1367448 - Genokolar dev, .35 kernel

Great if you like the android/ios mashup.

Can anyone tell me if there are any problems experienced with the 18/12/2011 .32 kernel release?

Has anyone tried Geno's .35 release? Seems more like a testing release from Geno.

CM7 - Only has one DEV that I can see, Genokolar

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1311565 - .35 kernel and 11.11.22 release

Not quite sure what the deal is here, .32 kernel seems stable with most everything working except usb tether. .35 kernel seems a bit all over the place and I am not sure what the deal is. Anyone able to shed some light here? Also seems Geno is dropping support so hopefully other devs step up.

Oxygen: Seems active but has some of the biggest bugs that I can see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1149150

http://forum.oxygen.im/

Seems to be really active but has no ability to mount internal SD card, no tethering, video seems a bit suspect. Are these problems still happening?

Which one is the recovery to use?

I know it is a personal choice, but which rom is a good start? Seems CM7 is the way to go if I don't want miui interface and need ability to wifi tether and use both sd cards in the phone.

Thanks for any input

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Also, we have a wiki page here:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Huawei_U8800_IDEOS_X5

You dont need to be a dev to edit a wiki, anyone can do it, how about if we edit it to keep as a central repository for info and sticky it at the top of the general section.

I have been helping curate the u8150 one here:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Huawei_U8150_IDEOS#Unofficial_ROMs_.26_Recovery

and it is very easy to do as well as making all info easy to find.

If you have some info to contribute, why not help make the wiki complete?

Thanks

la solucion al teclado a la mitad para la rom dev cm9 que esta en el foro

es cambiar la resolucion de la pantalla a 100dpi suena loco pero funciona y le da mas puntos a favor a esta rom

the solution to the keyboard half the rom dev CM9 this forum

is to change the screen resolution of 100dpi sounds crazy but it works and gives you more points for this rom making it more usable

=)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] -HellRaiser-:

i think u r trying to talk about the cm9 port and someting related to keyboard bug and to make it more stable.

pls be more clear.

lo siento amigo que realmente se esforzó por entender lo que está tratando de decir, pero no soy capaz de hacerlo.

Creo que están tratando de hablar sobre el puerto y CM9 someting relacionados con errores de teclado y para que sea más estable.

por favor, ser más claro.

He is trying to say that we have to change the lcd density, which should fix the keyboard issue..am I correct???
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] framequake:
Translation (unfortunately my Spanish is as bad as my English):

The solution for the keyboard of the CM9-rom which is in the development section is to set the resolution of the screen to 100dpi

Sounds crazy but works and would result in a better rom.

Someone has already tried that with squadzones rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20726671&highlight=density#post20726671) but maybe it's still a good idea.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] jorgelreza:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirDVV:
Hello.

I just bought a MicroSD, and saw on ESExplorer that the phone mounts the externalSD inside the sdcard folder /sdcard/external_sd

That way, it thinks I only have 11.5Gb available and everything I put inside my external_sd actually fills the internal memory.

I should have 11.5+8=19.5 but I don't.

Any way to fix this?

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirDVV:
I can't believe no one has a Galaxy S2 with an external Sd card!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlowerPotmen:
Settings menu/storage and did you format it there first? Or do you use Kies and what is it using for sending stuff to your memory (Internal or External First?)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
In settings/storage do you see both cards? In mine I can see SD card 29.81gb & USB storage 11.5gb.

Yes it shows the external card folder in the internal file explorer. It doesn't mean files are saved on the internal card. It was also like that on the S1 as well.

When you connect to PC in USB mode the PC will show both cards separately.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheReverend210:
external_sd is just the mount point. You will only have ~12gb available on your internal memory because the phone uses some memory for the OS. I only have 7.4gb usable on my 8gb external sd. The available memory is always smaller than advertised

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Habarug:
Hi! I'm currently on android, but I'm thinking of buying a Windows Phone in the future.

On my android phone unlocking (rooting) has made be able to install custom roms and themes and all that and I'm wondering what unlocking is good for on a WP phone. I'm not expecting it to be as open as android, but just out of curiosity, what can you do with an unlocked wp phone? :)

Thanks in advance :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williammel:
You can load themes that customize the display.

You can add more colors that are used on the phone.

You can 'sideload' apps you obtained without the marketplace (due to using features that wouldn't get approved in the app store, content, etc.)

The restriction currently is no apps like 'task killer', or 'email clients', or 'custom boot animations' etc. - however, they are not required :)

Finally, there's been only one fundamental UI change (i.e. no 1.6 -> 2.2 -> 2.3.3 -> 3.0 -> 4.0), so there's (currently) no desire to hack up the UI to look like a more recent OS iteration.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Habarug:
Thanks :-) I still think I would miss the freedom of Android, though. While the wp launcher is nice, it seems to me that it would need lots of scrolling if you have many apps. The hubs might help out on this though.

BTW: I run 2.2 with the looks of 4.0 :-P

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCOAFZ:
Scrolling not required. Download the folder app and you can make tile folders. Also after so many apps, you get a alphabetical jumplist. Finally you can also hold the windows key and say "start" and the name of the app or even settings.

Only available through Samsung Apps it would seem at the moment, but if you search 'chaton' in Samsung Apps, you'll see that its now available in Canada!

Played around with it for a bit... its pretty cool. Now all we need is for it to come out for iphone and we don't have to worry about the $1.99 a year whatsapp chooses to charge android customers, but only charge a one time fee of $1.99 to icrap.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zorxd:
I don't get it.

Why would anyone pay for one of these apps? There are so many free alternatives.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] franciscojavierleon:
the main reason is because you don't have to log in, as you would with msn messenger or the like.

Also, since the username / contact is the phone number, you don't need to "add" a contact since you already should have them on your contact list.

also it uses a lot less battery than those other active IM apps and it's a lot more network efficient.

For me the best is whatsapp. About the price difference on android / ios you have this option:

1) Find a friend that has an iphone*.

2) Get him / her to buy the app and activate it with YOUR phone number.

3) Delete whatsapp from the iphone.

4) Install whatsapp on your android device.

5) Voila, 10 year license on android for only 1$

* it can be an ipod touch, but it must be jailbroken and you won't be legally able to buy the app

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Semantics:
Canceled my first pre-order, but just ordered another one. I chose the free shipping, and it states that I will receive it by 1.9.12.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] some_developer:
I just ordered an Office Depot one. It said estimated delivery of 12/30, but once the order was complete, it said 1/6. Lame. Also, if it doesn't list the color option, do you just get whatever they send you?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Bruuce:
Same here on the shipping (1/5) but same as BB and free I can't complain... as far as color, it'll be Grey. The product description says so. Guess they don't both with the title because they only have the one style.

I am out of town for a little while and I don't want to incur the heavy cost of roaming. So, I am on airplane mode and have WiFi on. But I'd like to know if I can use GPS on airplane mode. I tried it but the GPS doesn't seem to pick up my location. It keeps saying, location temporarily unavailable.

So, can I use GPS on airplane mode?
[Motorola Droid X2] robocuff:
Yes and no. GPS itself works fine in airplane mode. It's the app you're using that causes problems. I have a speedometer app that works just fine in airplane mode. However, I believe google maps and navigation require a working data connection. Without it, they won't work.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:

Do I need a data connection for Maps and Navigation? Wouldn't a WiFi connection do?

Yes, WiFi should work. But, WiFi won't work in airplane mode. You could shut down just data and use WiFi but where are you going to get the WiFi from on the road?

Starting with version 5 Google Maps sports offline caching so you can navigate with GPS with no WiFI in Airplane Mode. In other words a stand-alone GPS navigator.

There are other offline mapping/navigation apps available too.

No, I am on Airplane mode and my WiFi works flawlessly. Still, the damn Google Maps doesn't pick up my location when I turn GPS on. I am trying TomTom Navigator though.
