Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mibo666:
Same like on TF101... we got thus bug since adw ex was released on honeycomb. U can use multiple pic livewallpaper but sliding with live wallpaper is little bit laggy.

I've been using multipicture live wallpaper in the market:

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture

There's also wazardrii in the market:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii&hl=en

They take a little work to get going but once you understand them they will set your wallpaper to full screen

Supposedly picspeed works too but I haven't tried it:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.srsdev.wallpapers&hl=en

Ima try it when I get home
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gr4ybu5h:
Nevermind, picspeed doesn't set the wallpaper correctly but they have alot of wallpapers
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ehzr:
Tried that first app, it works great! It always bothered me having seemingly low res wallpapers. This will also let you have an individual wallpaper on each screen, change wallpapers randomly on a schedule, have a seperate lock screen wallpaper, and change the wallpaper transition animation.

So, I was over at a friend's dinner party, and a friend of mine was screwing around with my phone. She tried the password a bunch of times, then was at the 2 minute lock timer, and I don't know if the battery came loose or something, but the screen went black and wouldn't turn back on. So she gave me back the phone, I took out the battery and put it back in to reboot.

I get the phone locked wait for x amount of time thing.. for 113 6xx minutes.

Edit: I just looked at the numbers and just realized I'm an edited. It's 2 and a half months. lol.

I do know the PIN, but I don't want to wait that long. And I really don't want to reset it since I got a few things I want to keep on there. Is there any way around this?

Additional info: Samsung Focus, developer unlocked, running latest updates.

Please help me out. Thanks!

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfvtn:
I figured my only option would be to restore or hard reset. I restored it to my last point which was about a month ago which isn't too bad, but I wish I had a later restore point.

In addition, I just realized it set the date and time to Oct 18 for some reason, which is exactly 78.xxx days (amount of minutes left) of the timer away from the current date.

So for anybody who can figure it out, the lock timer probably can be changed by learning how to change to date and time through another method. I was thinking Zune could sync up with it somehow, but I didn't feel like trying. Needed my phone.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chirag111:
Hi all,

I want to start android application development. Can you suggest a low budget way of doing that?

Can any android supported cell phone can be used for App development or there are some restrictions in phones for Development? If yes, then i can buy any low series basic used android phone and do App development.

Do i need to root and ROM access any phone to develop, load and test application?

Where can i find Android application framework architecture and basics of application development documents/ articles? I know developer.android.com has it but it is not starting from broader level to micro level. It is just talking about specific issues and directly starting Hello World. But i want to study about android architecture and fundamentals before starting.

Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SAI Peregrinus:
The android SDK comes with an emulator, so that will help on the phone aspect. You definitely want to be able to enable sideloading of apps (install non-market apps), I've heard some carriers disable this. Root can be helpful in many situations.

Assuming you know java and are familiar with Eclipse, you mainly need to learn about the Android API.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlazinGTI:
I installed a single widget from Beautiful Widget yesterday and today I've had the launcher redraw itself multiple times and this is aomethig I've never seen before. How much free RAM should be available? I'm hovering around 120. Stock Nex HSPA running 4.0.1 on T-Mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antzor:
I usually hover around 350mb free... 120 is seeming a little low. Are you exiting apps with the home button or the back button?

Sent from my GSM Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlazinGTI:
Either or, no preference either way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlazinGTI:
Are you stock?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Often i stay around 120mb free ram so i think you are functioning normally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
Free ram is unused ram.

You only need as much free ram as the next, uncached task will require. On Android this is unlikely to ever be more than 80MB.

On this basis, if you have 120 free you should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Uh no. Free RAM consists of cached but not currently running apps and cached kernel resources. It is by no means "unused".

You also need a lot more free RAM than what the next app you are going to run requires, due to kernel caches and paging policy problems. If you are actually interested in learning how memory management works I suggest you read up on virtual memory first before giving others advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
Don't be snide, it's unbecoming.

"Free" in the context that the OP used it is exactly that, free and unused - as in not used by anything at all, empty. Perhaps you might want to look that one up.

I responded to him in context and accurately. From an end user perspective it's a more helpful answer than a technical one about paging, caches and kernels...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skynet11:
I suggest downloading Cache Cleaner NG (yes, the "NG" one) from the Market if you're having lag or other problems. This will help no matter which definition of "free RAM" you choose to adopt ;) I can say, though, that in my experience a lot of lag and force close issues have had more to do with cache and app data than with "free RAM." For example, on my Fascinate I'd have 120 MB or so of "free RAM" according to my system settings, but I'd still have major lag and more force closes than a chain of Circuit City stores until I cleared app cache using Cache Cleaner NG. This is different from wiping the cache partition in recovery.

Terminators run on Android :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Free in the context? There is no context needed here, as there is no ambiguity. Free here refers to exactly one thing: the amount of free memory reported by the Android system. The Android system uses a Linux kernel and reports free memory the way all Linux systems report free memory: all kernel and userland caches are reported as free memory. Free memory is not unused memory. Free memory is physical memory pages that are not currently marked in use by any virtual page entries. Free memory is used as cache by the virtual memory system. If you understand the virtual memory system at all you'd realize that truly "free and unused" memory doesn't even make sense in a virtual memory system. Truly unused memory is just cold cache, once the cache has been warmed up, the idea of unused memory becomes irrelevant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Basically OP, you should never have to worry about it. This phone has more than enough RAM to handle anything you throw at it. If it ever feels "sluggish" just give it a reboot. No need chasing your tail to free up 15MB of RAM that won't make a difference anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlazinGTI:
Thank you. This is what I figured as I've had quite a bit of experience with Android dating back to the G1 (it's why I don't have a task killer installed). Yeah, the lag is annoying although it's way better than my Xoom's. I was just wondering what you guys were hovering at.

I do have an app that turns itself on in my running apps list (it's ESPN's Fantasy Football app) I want to keep the app but it's sort of annoying seeing it pop up there all the time. Is there a way I can force it to stay off?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Do you have a widget running for this app? Any app that has a widget on the main screen will automatically run because of said widget.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
I personally think thats REALLY low. I'm typically sitting over 400MB free with a couple widgets running and battery monitor in the background as well.

As of this moment I'm showing 367 free. Apps running: Angry birds RIO, Phone, Google Music (with music streaming currently), battery monitor, settings page.

4.0.1 is not memory efficient at all compared to 4.0.2&4.0.3. Not only are the newer builds more efficient with RAM but the size of the ROM on disk is much leaner.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
After a reboot and once the dust was settled seems like I have 346 MB of free RAM, something you should try just to see how much you are starting with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlazinGTI:
So I'm assuming you're on a build other than 4.0.1? I just tried a reboot and am sitting at 290MB free, I'll monitor it to see how long it takes to get back to the low 100's.

As for the Fantasy Football app, it does NOT have a widget. And apps that HAVE widgets, like Pandora, Evernote, Music, Docs, Soundhound, none of those show up in running OR cached apps.

I flashed the final evolved rom to my evo "r3 charged final"

I have noticed that with all the roms I flashed since 2.3 came out that i have very little free memory the previous rom I had about 130 megs but now I'm running 80 -100 and that is with a task killer set on 1 min kill intervals.

I read about low ram and something called HSPL but i have no idea what it is or how I can flash it

can any one help

also on the rom install i wiped the phone and even formatted the sd card so i know the install was clean ( it also runs really good until the memory gets below 70megs )

thanks for your help

Think its for more memory space for apps, but it must create more system memory as well, because before I used it I had moved all my apps to SD, but I was still running low on memory. Since Ive used apps2sd ive had no more memory shortages

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathsled:
sounds like you don't quite understand the difference between ROM/storage space and RAM/memory.

A lot of people use memory and storage interchangeably but that is not accurate.

The OP is having a problem with low memory/RAM meaning that the OS and running programs are utilizing too much RAM, IE too many apps or processes are running or there is a memory hole/leak somewhere. He is not having a problem with storage space or room to install additional applications or store additional data.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobarune:
you can use the V6 supercharger or Car-o-dope tweaks (i think thats what it is called) they will increase your RAM

Thanks for the heads up on the RC4 release of the V6 I put it in and it did help my memory on this rom . So after partitioning and running the script I just have one strange question.

Does this rom have a built in power battery saver? i am not running any sort of battery saver, I am running a task killer still but only to see free ram since the script does the task killing now. I notice my wifi shuts off when the phone sleeps and that I have sleep mode that enables at about 11pm. Is there a way to kill this since I do most of my computer geek stuff late at night.

I have looked all through my apps and i have nothing installed that i believe could be doing the power conservation stuff

Possibly a dumb question but if I customize my homescreens with adw launcher and other things (going to try for a "hubs" look) when ICS update comes around will that ruin all the customizations? It will be a decent amount of work to get the customization done so would hate to do it and then have to redo it all in a weeks time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
yes, more than likely it will erase all of that..sorry...but ICS own launcher n skin is better anyways so you can try to customize that. plus I heard something along the lines of Google making the ICS launcher n homescreen mandatory or something like that. not sure of the details. maybe that only goes for manufacturers n other companies so they don't put their own skin on top of ICS and slow it down. they said they will be some kind of customization option though. not exactly sure what it is though.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Paris6906:
the update can clear your settings but adw has an option for backing up settings.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
hmmmm, well think I will wait for the update either way just in case.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
adw can back up settings, but last i checked, it can't backup your homescreen configuration.

but it's just going to depend on if the ICS update needs a data wipe, if it can be flashed on top of HC, then you should be fine, otherwise, you'll just need to reinstall adw and reconfigure it.

for the comment regarding the launcher being a necessary requirement for 4.x it's not accurate, google requires that OEM's include the stock "halo (holo?)" theme in the OS to be allowed access to gaaps/market, but it basically means OEM's can still **** up the OS however they want so long as unskinned apps default to the stock theme.

so people who are expecting this to help OEM's update their **** faster, it's not going to do anything at all for anyone really, aside from making apps that don't have their own chrome/framework/skin look like stock ICS apps.

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2012/01/holo-everywhere.html

Should let you revert back to Holo theme in most instances, and help to get a more uniformed look across differente devices from different manufacturer. This with the Disable App function should help the non-root user get closer to vanilla android. Good approach IMHO
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
i stand corrected, i looked at it last night and it does look like it does it now.

it backs them up on /sdcard though, so i would move those files to your computer or microsd card before updating so that if anything gets wiped you don't lose them
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
this is what i was referring to, but that does not effect the end user in any way, it's not a way for the user to choose the device theme, it introduces a default (holo) theme that developers can choose to force their apps to use (since it must be included in gaaps/market devices) and it seperates the skin/framework for OEM's to hopefully allow them to push updates quicker since they can work on their UI overlays outside of the OS itself. it also allows developers to let their app choose whatever is set as the default skin for any 4.x device, so if you have a TW or Sense device running 4.x the app can adapt to the framework for those overlays to provide the end user with a consistent UI experience if the developer chooses to do so.

however, as sense and TW dig deeper into the OS itself, this will still keep those OEM's from updating their devices even relatively quickly.

what android needs to do is sandbox the OEM overlays, and force them to release devices with vanilla android and then allow the user to install the OE skin if they choose to do so.

but being that android is made for manuf, and not end users, that's never going to happen.
