install adb, fastboot and your device drivers.

go to your adb and fastboot folder put the recoveryEVO3D.img (extracted from the rar tailsthecat3 provided) there.

next go to the command prompt, navigate to the folder with adb in it, and type "adb reboot bootloader" (without the quotations ofc)

when your phone has booted into the bootloader (it should say FASTBOOT USB near the top), type "fastboot flash recovery recoveryEVO3D.img" (again without the quotation marks).

Please be careful, as attempting to flash a CDMA recovery on a GSM phone and vice versa is a bad idea.

That said the recoveryEVO3D.img above is CDMA i believe.

how to get back to FROYO 2.2.1 DDKB2 firmware from XXKPQ firmware????????????
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
Flash the .pit then the XXKB3 three files...repeat it again then

Flash DDKB2 as PDA repeat this as well

Perform factory reset after every flash

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
does xxkb3 come with the pit file? the rom thread doesn't specify and I won't download just to find out.

in another thread, someone stated that there is a separate pit file for froyo vs GB, and that you can't use the GB pit file for going back to froyo.

I found a froyo pit file, but I can't confirm how good it is since it's not on the sammy site or here on xda. the page to get the file is here

no, I don't know what it stands for (google could tell me if I was interested...), but the pit file is for designating partition sizes, which is necessary when installing different versions of fw, like froyo vs GB.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
See the below link for flashing guide and there you will find the pit file for froyo

Hi, I use Stardock Fences on my desktop computer and it really cleans up the screen. For those of you that don't know about it, I highly recommend giving it a try - it's freeware.

Anyway, for those that like to have apps on their home screen(s), it makes things much quicker for launching those frequent apps. However, the screen gets really cluttered, really quick.

All of that screen real estate is precious and could be cleaned up really easy, leaving all your app shortcuts intact.

My idea is for an app that, upon tapping twice in a blank area on the screen, hides/shows all of your app shortcuts. If you need the apps shown, just like normal, you can then double tap in a blank area to restore all of the shortcuts. For those of us that like a minimalistic screen, in the meantime, the app shortcuts can be hidden with a double tap. Widgets can stick around so you see all your clocks, feeds, etc.

Let me know your feedback and, devs, feel free to run with this.

Here is the link for Stardock Fences for your reference:

Hey friends,

Here is another app that i recently developed - Carbon Footprint Calculator.

A carbon footprint is the measure of the amount of greenhouse gases,

measured in units of carbon dioxide, produced by human activities. A carbon footprint

can be measured for an individual or an organization, and is typically given in tons of CO2-equivalent (CO2-eq)

So here is your chance to check how much Carbon you EMIT .. ;)

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

We all have some responsibility towards nature so this is my short effort to make people aware of the extra harmful CO2 emitted by them.

You can search my app in market place as i am still not allowed to post urls.

Go Green!! :) and give me suggestions on how i can improve my app .
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rightintourheart:
Awesome! :)

Very nice effort!!

Good to see apps are being made taking nature into consideration! :D

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svprm:
I'm planned to buy second hand Nexus s mobile for 350USD.

Is it worth buying Nexus S.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGStumps8807:
I own a Nexus One (same internals as a desire) and bought a Nexus S. The difference is very noticeable. CPU and GPU have more power and the screen is very nice. NFC is a cool feature that I found myself using a lot (I bought custom tags and use NFC task launcher http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1359057) The prospect of getting an official release of ICS is nice too. I've tried it on both and the performance is much better on the NS. All and all, I think it's a good upgrade. You just have to decide whether it's worth $350 or not. I did.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordPhong:
Maybe if you can trade your current phone and that cash, a better phone can be had.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shark_On_Land:
if thats US currency no.

i think euros are around half so your buying for $200? not bad.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidsteele1975:
I think if you have to ask the question, this means you're not sure, so the answer is probably "no." That looks like an expensive price for a used handset.

If you have a burning reason why you need to upgrade from the Desire to the Nexus S (better performance, NFC, AMOLED) then fair enough, but without a little more background, it's hard to quantify.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warren_Orange:
Not worth it for that price.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thephantom:
Too much for that price. Maybe you can still haggle
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerkwagon:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
It's a little more for a new one. I recently got one. But hm... Is it heavily used or beat up? I would try to bring that price down, or as someone else mentioned trade in your phone too for a better phone. Regardless the Nexus S is an amazing phone. Very smooth, TONS of development still being done on it. It was Google's flagship phone of coarse. To this day I think it hold more than it's own against even some dual core phones.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuffyPSP:
consider money is not a problem in my below opinions, i just had to share my thoughts as a fellow Desire user.

mate, if you are from Desire, i think you better go for dual core. I had a Desire and then upgraded to SGS2. and it was a great phone and still are. One of the best HTC phones ever made. i missed it sometimes.

But going for Nexus S? unless you are totally new to smartphone, then yes it is worth it. From Desire then it is not. I gave my Desire to my mum and got me a SGS2. I bought Nexus S soon after that as my 2nd phone. Yes getting ICS first is awesome but it can be pretty sluggish at times, and the performance are actually the same as Desire had, except a stable ICS. IMO, go for dual core, or to be more specific, Galaxy Nexus if you want stock AOSP experience. I'm getting one soon too as my 3rd phone. :D

I am looking for a case/cover for my new galaxy tab 10.1 4G.

Is there a size difference for 4g+ wifi version and just wifi only galaxy tab?

because some sellers titled their item "it does not compatible with the 4g verizon galaxy tab 10.1"
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
No its the button placement that's the issue. On the Verizon tablets buttons are on the upper left when in portrait mode not the top edge. Therefore some cases may cover them.

Take a look at the pyro skin 360. Its a good case that will fit, just make sure you get the v2 model.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinji2009:
hi all.

do you know that stock camera for i9001 can take pictures closer than film videos?

after i find it i was interested is there some app that can film videos in macro... i download LGcamera free from market and find out that this app can focus in preview to macro objects even closer than stock app, for distance about 2cm! try it, it is amasing! but it can't film video in macro! afrer pressing the shutter button focus go away for 50cm or something...

i find this strange, why macro is different in different apps and why app can focus for macro filming in preview, but can't actually film a video? it is seem to be just a software issue.

can anyone please fix it in firmware? it will be really cool to take macro pictures and videos in HD720p
[EVO 4G General] Tripp-phpBB:
Why does Android clutter up my SD card with so many folders and crap. I have a class 10 16 GB card so space isn't an issue. I'm just a bit OCD and when I connect my phone to my computer I see 20+ folders from different apps and what not.

Basically, why doesn't Android better organize all this stuff into one folder? Sure I could make them hidden but I don't see why there needs to be so many folders for so many different things. Where does it all go if you don't have an SD card?

Hopefully someone can offer some insight into this madness.
[EVO 4G General] bumsock:
Lol
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
Agree with OP. I spend a lot of my time on my phone in the SD via root explorer. And the amount of folders NOT created by me is dizzying. And I've wondered the same about what if no sd'. Maybe that's why the the android devices before froyo performed sooo poorly. Froyo was the first iteration of android that supported move to SD. Maybe before froyo, all of that crap went to the /data partition of the painfully memory-limited devices of the time. Thus the poor performance.

Just a stab at it. Dunno. Thinking out loud - but that's what General is FOR.

But yeah, I wondered about the no SD thing before, too. And I came from winmo, where I kept a really organized SD.

[EVO 4G General] oOflyeyesOo:
It would be nice if it wasn't so bad. But for the most part it is not androids fault, its the apps you have used, I have had to get rid of so many, but now im built back up over time and trying new apps out.
[EVO 4G General] MrDSL:
Agree here also..hell ICS adds a bunch of folders I don't use..

Alarms,pictures,podcasts,music,notifications,ringtones to name a few..
[EVO 4G General] skylar.sutton:
It's not Android, it's dip**** developers.

All app data is supposed to be stored in [sd_card]\Android\data\[name_of_the_app]. To make it really easy they provide developers a method that gets the directory for their app called getExternalFilesDir().

Email the dip**** devs and tell them to start using getExternalFilesDir. I can tell you that TitaniumBackup and a few others have point blank refused to use that directory, as I have already emailed them.

NewsRob and a few others indicated they would look into moving to that directory during the next major release.

[EVO 4G General] Skeletor916:
Lol, couldn't agree with this any more. Files and folders are about the only thing I'm OCD about and it bugs me to no end.
[EVO 4G General] Ironwrung:
Yup, android and android developers ought to do something about folders cluttering mem cards, I also came from windows mobile before I started out with android, windows had a dedicated folder for application's data called program files, android or atleast developers should stick to the default android folder on sd cards to minimize the clutter

Disclaimer:

If you are looking for a fast and stable rom for your phone, go search for a gingerbread rom. ICS roms are still on besta stages and GB roms are much better right now. If you just want to test a lite ICS rom then you are welcome to download the rom.

SuperLite: new additions marked with red :

+Blue battery icon

+BLue icons on quick settings panel.

+Two launchers: TW and Trebuchet.

+Deodexed, zipaligned and rooted with cf-root lp2.

+Latest Trebuchet launcher (lite rom had an old one).

+SuperLite, more bloatware has been removed.

-Imho it's faster than original LP2 rom thanks to some animation changes.

Have a look to the screenshot if you want to know which apps are preinstalled.

DOWNLOAD SUPERLITE ROM

Mirror thanks to navodwickra

I really suggest to wipe data and cache before flashing the rom unless you are already using an LP2 rom.

thenotorious made a wonderful video of the rom:

Select a launcher:

Trebuchet Launcher:

Touchwiz Launcher:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] titooo7:
Stock LP2 rom is just a leaked beta. As a beta it has some bugs that are caused by unknow circustamces, so I wouldn't expect any dev to have a fix till the next leak happens, just to be honest with you.

I just deodexed the rom, make it lighter and added few animations that apparently make the transitions smoother. In my opinion another good thing about this rom is that removing some unnecessary apks and services you decrease the posibilities of having forced closes and things like that.

Gingerbread roms are more stable and faster than all the ICS roms around. Some people claim that ICS is faster but that's not a reality yet, period.

No y no ;)

Don't know if it's your rom, this is the only ICS rom I tried to date.

If you have the same problem it should be ICS related:

Enable vibration in sound settings (set to "always"). Turn on your volume and receive a whatsapp message, your phone shouldn't vibrate although you set it on (even in whatsapp settings).

Now put your volume down to vibrate mode and receive a message. Your phone should vibrate..
