Details:

Droid X2 on Verizon

CM7

ADW launcher

I flashed CM7 last week, and from day one I've had intermittent problems with the notification pull down.

Occasionally, when I pull it down, it is unresponsive. You can tap on nothing, and the only action you can do is to close the pull down. A reboot fixes the problem, but it happens again. I've found no pattern.
[Motorola Droid X2] maggard5:
Have you tried wiping cache and dalvik?

If that doesn't work, maybe try reflasing the rom.

If all else fails you could always sbf and start over.
[Motorola Droid X2] dark_system:
I have been running cm7 for about 5 days now and haven't noticed any issues at all with the notification bar. I know it might not sound fun but maybe you should sbf and reinstall everything. Whenever dkz posted the updated tether file, that's what I did. I know I am new to this, so just a suggestion.

Anyways, I have not noticed any issues with the notification bar. In fact with this rom it just seems to snap down and up super fast!
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Mine did this last night. I rebooted and all was well.
[Motorola Droid X2] Gelfing:
Yea, rebooting fixes it, but it always comes back.. hahah

I'll try a dalvik wipe and see where it gets me!
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
This is the source....

When you go to "swype" a message away, and at the same time you drag the status bar up(this is sooo unintentional, I've did it 1mil times already), or you "swype" the message away and hold too long in one position or something loads or something other than a complete "swype" of the message, It will lock up.

SOLUTION:

You don't have to reboot actually, All you have to do is restart the Status Bar! All you do is go to theme manager, Select a different theme, Load, then select the correct theme you want, Load, Then you are good to go :) ... takes literally 5 seconds to bypass it, as opposed to rebooting.

Dalvik, yata yata... non of that is the issue, is a minor error in the script. Need to add a "else" line in there somewhere.
[Motorola Droid X2] Gelfing:
I hadn't thought about changing theme to fix it... I like that.

I will say, I did wipe the dalvik yesterday and haven't seen it since. I'll play around with it more.
[Motorola Droid X2] Moon Shadow - NM:
Or, there is a free app on the market that will restart your notification bar. https://market.android.com/details?...yLDEsImNvbS50ZW50aHN0b25lLm5vdGlmaWNhdGlvbiJd

That's what I use.

Hi all,

When I set up a corporate email account on my TF101, everything works great, except I am wondering if there a way I can change my view of the sent items folder. I would like it to show whom I have sent the message to plus a summary of the email on the right. What I see is the "From" field (me) and a summary of the email on the right.

Is anyone aware of a way to swap the "From" field in the sent view to the "To" field?

Thanks, in advance,

Hi All,

I would like to customise the default Arc lockscreen to include the circle battery widget.

What is the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks,

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cuerrix:
Hi Jef,

The best way to do this is to use an app called WidgetLocker Lockscreen. You can find it on the market but it costs about 3$. There are a some freewares in the market like Lockbot free but they aren´t really good.

[HTC Sensation] ka1iban:
I have a rooted HTC Sensation running SelfKang's alpha10 CM7. I'm a T-Mobile customer based out of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. I've had no problems of note with CM7 at all on Sensation. But...

I recently travelled to Florida and had no problem using phone and mobile data (outside of generally spotty network coverage). However, I went on a boat tour that took us several miles off the coast and (presumably) out of normal network range. I was able to access roaming when out there, but when we returned to land, I couldn't connect back to the T-Mobile network. I've tried toggling airplane mode and rebooting, I wiped and reflashed CM7 and I also tried flashing a different ROM (EnergyROM), all to no effect.

I've looked around the forums here and elsewhere and seen a few mentions of similar issues, but none of the proposed fixes I've applied have worked. I haven't changed the APN settings from what they currently show, but I did confirm with another working user that my APN login info is correct. I tried my sim card in my girlfriend's phone (an HTC Espresso running CM7) and it works fine and conversely, her sim won't work in my phone. When I "Search Networks", about half the time I get the "error searching for..." message and the other half it sees T-Mobile and AT&T, but I get "Unable to login to..."

The problem seems to be isolated to my phone (after the sim card test) but I can't figure out if it's hardware or a software/ROM issue. Everything else on the phone works fine (Wifi, programs, etc.) I've stopped short of reflashing a newer or older radio; I'm currently on 10.56.9035.00P_10.14.9035.01_M.

Any tips or fixes anyone can suggest would be much appreciated.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] johnerz:
reset the apn to default regardless of what you can see then do a battery pull from switched on reboot do a manual network selection should sort it for you
[HTC Sensation] ka1iban:
hmm...did those steps. I get the same problem.

Manual search for networks either gets "error searching for networks" or T-Mob and AT&T show up but selecting T-Mob get me "unable to connect at this time". This is all while showing no bars.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
Antutu and cf bench are fairly consistant. Typically they match real world results but sometimes.they are just way off. Using the coca-cola Tom now and it's quick with great battery life but scores extremely low
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skrambled:
Over 7,000 is a good score. I get around 6,000 on a stock-ish kernel (not OC'd).

Please don't take offense at some of the responses, it's just that too many people put too much emphasis on benchmark scores when the scores really don't take into account everything that impacts the performance of your phone.

I've had phones with crappy performance and high benchmarks and vice versa. Benchmark scores are good for comparing different roms as a base point, but the only thing that really matters is how it performs for you.

Thanks in advance!
[Omnia 7 General] pLUSpISTOL:
Hmm.. Is there any unbranded firmwares that you can flash?
[Omnia 7 General] Pulitry:
Updating by Zune won't debrand (even with blank MobileOperator key)? Because Zune offers me an update (8107 perhaps) and I'm waiting till someone finds out a way to write this key.
[Omnia 7 General] pLUSpISTOL:
Because the Samsung Omnia W aka Samsung Focus Flash is a 2nd gen device there are no tools at the moment that can change the registry key.

Your only hope would be to flash an unbranded ROM. When you do this it isn't done through Zune, you use a special Samsung flashing tool.

I have done a Google search and can't find any information on Omnia W ROMs yet... :confused:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desertegl:
Hi everyone,

I am wondering if it's possible to enable this on our EVOs and also what sort of effects would it create? From inside the "A2SDGUI" app (from dta2sd) it isn't possible for me to activate swap under "swap settings" even if I currently have my SD card partitioned with 128 megabytes in a swap partition.

Could we follow the instructions found in the link below (on post #2)?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1349694

Physical memory can be extended using a swap partition. So when your phone (or system) starts to run low on memory, it moves some of the inactive processes into the virtual memory. [1]

[1]http://zerocredibility.wordpress.com/2009/08/24/why-android-swap-doesnt-make-sense/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablo67:
Swap is, in short, virtual RAM. With swap, a small portion of the hard drive is set aside and used like RAM. The computer will attempt to keep as much information as possible in RAM until the RAM is full. At that point, the computer will begin moving inactive blocks of memory (called pages) to the hard disk, freeing up RAM for active processes. If one of the pages on the hard disk needs to be accessed again, it will be moved back into RAM, and a different inactive page in RAM will be moved onto the hard disk ('swapped'). The trade off is disks and SD cards are considerably slower than physical RAM, so when something needs to be swapped, there is a noticeable performance hit.

Unlike traditional swap, Android's Memory Manager kills inactive processes to free up memory. Android signals to the process, then the process will usually write out a small bit of specific information about its state (for example, Google Maps may write out the map view coordinates; Browser might write the URL of the page being viewed) and then the process exits. When you next access that application, it is restarted: the application is loaded from storage, and retrieves the state information that it saved when it last closed. In some applications, this makes it seem as if the application never closed at all. This is not much different from traditional swap, except that Android apps are specially programed to write out very specific information, making Android's Memory Manager more efficient that swap.

This question is hotly debated, but you almost definitely do not need swap. The only exception to this may be if the device is a first generation device (i.e. HTC Dream or HTC Magic).

Swap can give more available memory, however, class 6 SD cards are recommended and SD write wear is increased.

Actual performance depends on user memory use; you'll only see a benefit if you're consistently using up all available memory, due to any combination of inherently low device RAM, using multiple apps simultaneously, or a singularly memory-intensive app. Otherwise, the performance hit will exceed any performance gain.

How can I tell if swap/compcache is running?Go to the terminal emulator - or open adb shell - and run 'free'.

If it looks like this (with zeros in the swap line), you do not have swap

total used free shared buffers

Mem: 97932 96640 1292 0 272

Swap: 0 0 0

Total: 97932 96640 1292

Alot of the present roms floating around right now,don't use the swap partition,but its a good idea to leave something like 1GB or less for future swap initiation.

I have an mpman mp824 tablet (same as Coby Kyros MID8125), preloaded with Android 2.3.3. I want to use a VPN, but when I go to the Settings - Wireless and Networks screen, there is no VPN setup item as I would expect. I'm not an expert, but I assume this may be because a) the VPN applet is there somewhere, but has not started, or b) it is not there for some reason.

Can anyone help, plus is there a way I can overcome this? I have tried the supplier, but they are not replying

Thanks in advance for any advice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marksmithbvs:
Try these steps. It will surely help you!

1-Tap the ‘Menu’ button on your smartphone to open the resulting window.

2-Open the ‘Wireless and Network Settings’ window as you enter the new window and tap the concerned icon.

3-You will notice the option for ‘VPN Settings‘ along with many other options depending on the interface of the respective android vpn phone.

4-After tapping the VPN settings option, you will get the choice to connect to one of the many protocols available. From these, choose ‘Add PPTP VPN’.

5-In the next window, you will be asked to set VPN Name, VPN Server, Enable encryption, and DNS search domains, depending on your handheld devices.

6-Provide VPN Name and other information accordingly, click OK to complete the VPN configuration.

7-Navigate back to the VPN listings window and tap the VPN network that you have created just now to establish the connection.

8-The connection will be notified by a key icon in the notification area of the smartphone.

9-To disconnect the VPN, all you need is to move to the location of the connection and tap the current VPN connection.

I haven't been following things too closely, but a number of people report better battery lives after updating the firmware, there are threads in this forum specifically mentioning a drop in the 'Android OS' usage.
