[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
I agree with the above for the most part. I do belive Microsoft under estimated the efforts they would need to put into getting windows to run On arm.When and well If They do get a releasable product

(1) It will surely have one of the 3 fallowing problems . It will maybe run windows LIKE!!! programs And suck battery life.(BAD BAD AND A FAIL)

(2) It will Run windows Program like But be so Huge because of the extra batteries it will be to heavy to be useable.(Like the Current win 7 tabs.To big or no battery life.) This to would BE A BIG FAT FAIL.

(3) It will be a extension of the win phone operating system. The one that people complain about and toss and run back to android. Closed SOURCE very little development for it. Few but expensive apps.. WELL NOTHING MORE TO SAY BUT..

THIS TO IS A Near FAIL . They are huge and bulky or die Quickly..

I have 3 friends that have them. and pack charger and spair battery with them all the time..

The above are what i have been reading all over the web in one form or another..I also think there is something going on in the background behind peoples back.. I THINK LOCKING Devices to the installed OS will eventually be a non flash-able rom chip. with a secondary rom to incorporate updates and fixes to the first.. This would make devices obsolete much Quicker. Its becoming harder and harder for developers to break the boot loaders on these devices.

THE BOOT LOADER and its magic .. i feel is the reason acer has not release ICS. AND I BELIEVE THEY WILL NOT UNTIL THE FIX THIS

Just my Opinion. from what i have read over the last few months . There should be a international Protest NOt TO ACER OR ASUS or samsung .. BUT TO THE WORLD MANUFACTURERS. To get a law to disallow them to lock down NON CONTRACT DEVICES....
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] marmat78:
I fixed my install package. So sorry I used an automatic script packager and it used an old formatting. This DOES work now. This is the Cyanogenmod 9 Music Player for ICS only. Flash from recovery and you are good to go!

Hello,

but i discovered it doesn't support arabic language in writing and even reading its letters separately,

now i need to be back to my basic 2.3.5 or even i upgrade again to other version supporting arabic :S

can u help me please guys :)

thx
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] axilefoo:
What firmware do you flash on? Is the firmware from your country? Because other region firmware does not support certain languages.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] dr_tolba:
thx for reply and i knew after that it doesn't support arabic, so im in bad need for firmware supporting arabic, but idk where i can get it !!

or how i get my old firmware back
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] nick.oh:
Did you google how to include arabic on 2.3.6?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] dr_tolba:
ty , i did but got nothing !!

i just need even 2.3.5 arabic version !!

can any1 tell me sites getting stock ROM of the phone ?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] jayem123:
i think its not good to downgrade from 2.3.6 to 2.3.5 and could even brick your phone, be careful though
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] dr_tolba:
i did and worked good, thx for reply :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Elparaq:
may be U can go 2 www.SamMobile.com .u can search any stock rom that u need..

I have a clockworkmod backup ready, I don't really know if it supports Arabic (can't read all of the offered languages :D).

[Motorola Photon 4G] cavey8500:
ive been looking around on amazon and ebay for a holster perferably a horizontal one. and i was just wondering does any one have one? and if so what kind? and would you recommend it? im not sure why but ever sence ive had blackberrys (that came with the holster) ive always liked carrying my phone in a holster. any good ones out? they all seem kind of universal now, so i want one with a tight fit.

thanks for any help guys =)
[Motorola Photon 4G] ScottieRotten:
The otterbox defender series is nice but it depends on what you want.

Pros

Nice cover with built in screen protector

Rubberize skin helps with slipping out of hand and protects from damage from dropping.

Holster has 360 degree swivle

Good customer service

best protecting case on the market

company covers phone deductible on damages

Cons,

Adds bulk (once used to it this becomes no big deal)

Rubberized outer shell may snag coming in and out of pockets. (may cause missed calls but your phone shouldnt fall out accidently)

I have broken the holster broke the thumb off ( I was drunk dont ask how. The customer service sent me out 2 replacement holsters after calling them)

The holster is nice but can have a propensity to catch things when walking in tight proximities.. (doesnt help I am a large guy)

Recap,

If you work construction then getting an otterbox will help keep your device longer in harsh environments.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cavey8500:
ill look into it. the only issue i have with that is that it is huge. i was hopping that i could get one with no case. like a leather one or something?

thanks for the help man i appreciate it
[Motorola Photon 4G] ScottieRotten:
Before I got the defender, I bought one from the sprint store kind of a bare bones cover, the holster did have a swivel. THe cover itself didnt offer much in protection and same time didnt have any bulk..

The only downside with the holster was you needed to fully slide the phone out to retrieve and answer any calls. Unlike the holster for the otterbox it is a quick snap out.

I will see about a link for that case for you. Chances are good you can go to a sprint store and they would have one on hand you can checkout before buying..

http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli...ryID=CHM4701R&topPageNumber=0&subPageNumber=0

Here is a link to the cover I used before the otterbox..

Also have this through sprint, no case but simply a holster.

http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli...ID=CCU2588Q_C&topPageNumber=0&subPageNumber=0

THis one looks pretty good too but I cannot speak for it since I havent used one personally.

[Motorola Photon 4G] cavey8500:
ok sounds good man, thanks. if you find the link ill sure look at it =)

edit: oh i see you have posted them now =) looking at them right now.

edit 2: ok after looking at them i think i like the leather one the most. i may go look at them soon, i cant today because i have 7 inches of snow and a icey driveway, uphill. haha also i may find simular ones on amazon, as sprint is always so expensive! this one doesnt look to bad but im not sure what ill get just yet.http://www.amazon.com/Horizontal-Re..._32?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1326927546&sr=1-32
[Motorola Photon 4G] cornelious2:
Best holster ever is my left pocket. Keys and stuff go in right pocket.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cavey8500:
really? myns the opposite. well actually i have my keys on a karabeaner so other than the keys part.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cornelious2:
naked the phone seems to do just fine and fits fine in my slacks pockets with out any bulging. unless your doing something really active, id vote to just go for the pocket, if you have seen the videos the screen is really hard to scratch.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cavey8500:
weird. myn has little ones all over on it, i keep it alone in my pocket always.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Grysk:
The otterbox defender and commuter are both excellent cases IMHO. They're a bit on the pricey side but well worth getting if you want to protect your screen/camera (and basically everything else)

[General Questions and Answers] alexyaz:
keep your phone in charge only and you may not need to downgrade it see if unrevoked works for you.

http://unrevoked.com/#phones

like always you are responsible for your phone its nobodies fault but your own if something goes wrong

---------- Post added at 12:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 AM ----------

Even if you already have USB Debugging mode on, toggle it on and off a few times.

Make sure you uninstall ATK and HTC Sync before running unrevoked.

Turn your phone’s Wi-Fi off

Disable installation of non-Market applications by going to Settings > Applications.

Make sure to set ‘Charge’ as the default connection type when connecting your phone to the computer via USB.

[Kindle Fire General] Allen3697:
Okay, because I don't have 10 posts I can't post in the Android Development section yet. Okay, I've have blnkks (sp?) ICS rom for about a week now. Today I was using the Kindle in study hall at school, playing glow hockey. I locked the screen, cleaned it because it was full of fingerprints, and then unlocked it. After I unlocked it, the screen went weird. Every time I press the power button, nothing happens. The screen isn't fully off, because I can see a faint purpleish tone, which tells me the screen it on. It's not bricked, because it didn't freeze in a boot cycle. Any idea? I have TWRP 2.0 and I do have a recent backup, if need be.
[Kindle Fire General] Buffet_of_Lies:
Have you tried holding the button down for >20 seconds? Eventually it should turn off if you do that. Then hit the power button again and it should start up normally.
[Kindle Fire General] Allen3697:
I feel really stupid. I held it down for about 30 seconds and it finally turned off. It turned on with no problem. Before I was only holding it for a couple of seconds. Thanks for the help :D
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
Congrats on such a nicely layed out post. I really like the way you did the breakdown of the xml, looks great.

After reading this, I think I've made a bit of a mess of my pattern lock xml edits and think I need to start again using some of your.

Hopefully that will lead to solving my problem of centring the date without the strange misaligned duplicate (see below)

And... as you are a fellow pattern user, I thought you might be interested in some other mods here (assuming you've not already seen them).

[edit]

Hmmm, now thats just plain weird..... Wednesday and Thursday???
[Android Themes] byrong:
Thank you! I appreciate that

Oh wow - that's weird :eek:

Thanks for the link. Yea, I saw that and some other threads when I was trying to figure out the layout.

Yours looks fantastic. When I get some time, that's my next plan: to make the pattern lock screen look like it's not actually the pattern lock.
[Android Themes] kelvinloo:
seems very nice. will try it.
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
Embarrassed but I thought I had better come back to explain.

When creating a patternlock_background, it is quite important that I make a mental note to remove the screenshoot (I use to help for alignment) from the top layer of the image. It stops me getting a that false date :o I can definately class that one an epic fail.

Going to tidy up the xml following your guide. It should stop my energency call button from moving after I fail to draw the pattern correctly.

Do you have any idea how to change the text colour for the date?
[Android Themes] byrong:
Ha - that's awesome. We all have those moments.

Sorry man; if you don't know, I definitely don't know. You seem to be quite the subject matter expert on the pattern lock screen :cool:
[Android Themes] cj360:

[Android Themes] Jay_SEAN:
how to move the clock to center same with date and carrier ?
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
Please don't quote the entire 1st post.

Do a nandroid backup and just have a play about with the keyguard_screen_unlock_portrait.xml and the keyguard_screen_unlock_landscape.xml.

You probably need to take a look at changing some text alingments to - android:gravity="center"

And also you might like to remove some of the - android:layout_margin's or change them to 0.0dip

If you find a setup that you like, please post the xml code as a guide for other people.

Here is the my rough xml edit to centre the date --> https://db.tt/j9ccbebl. Although the font size is a little to large for some days of the year.

You'll want to flash a modified ICS rom instead of waiting months for a carrier update. You might get OTA updates if you're stock rom + rooted, but if it's a custom rom, you won't.

Seriously though, don't wait for your carrier to update your phone, they'll add their **** to it and ruin it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dan831:
i have a samsung skyrocket i was debating on putting the os 4 on my phone. now if i decide to add the software to my device does it really void the warranty? Also has anyone had a negitive experiance with the leaked version?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] djtyres:
ICS Leaked is not for our phone it is for the International version of the Samsung Galaxy S II (Not the LTE Skyrocket). Technically installing a custom rom will void your warranty although there are ways around this in the long run.

Our phone should be updated by March although with Samsung has completed the programing it would now be ether at Google for review or with your carrier to add their apps and testing. Once that is complete must go back to Google for review once more and back to the carrier for more testing.

I would personally wait as the ICS version from samsung will have all drivers and compatability for your phone which is a good thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] draztikrhymez:
That won't work on the SkyRocket it was leaked for s2 only
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
There are a few different S2 variants. As was mentioned, the version leaked is for the "standard" S2.

Our phone (which is known internationally as the Galaxy S II LTE, and is also very similar to the T-Mobile Galaxy S II), was announced to receive an ICS upgrade AFTER the standard Galaxy S II and Galaxy Note get them in Q1, so we might have to sit tight for a bit, could be a few months.

Once a ROM is released or leaked for any of the Snapdragon-based models, they'll probably be able to use that to form the basis for solid ICS roms on our phone as well.

I have a baseless theory that we might see it around the time the Skyrocket HD comes out, because there are always maintenance releases around new phones and it just makes good sense to have that ready.
