[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamSparx:
1) Hold your finger on the picture/widget on one of your homescreens until the background drops away and the remove option comes up

2) Without dragging the photo anywhere, remove your finger. The grid should now show up, You resize the picture by moving the little grey triangle around until it uses up the grid squares you want it to use. If you have other widgets on the page, you wont be able to go over the top of them. You won't be able to go further left or up than where you first put the widget either - to do that you'll have to hold-press and drag to another clear spot

3) If you find the background returning without the grid getting a chance to show up, tap the photo to reset the image from the gallery, and then try steps one and two again

Good luck

I notice a huge bug, when I listen to music with an headset. The oem one. When my headset is plugged in and I twist the plug (3,5 mm) I noticed it try to call the last person in the list. Does anybody this problem also? Try to listen to music and twist the plug 360 degrees and look if your phone try to call the last person that called you.

Something is not ok in the cable.. by twisting it you make contact of the two wires that go to the call button.. avoid doing that or it will stay this way and it could get you in trouble ;)
[HTC Sensation] bmwsensation:
Its not the cable but its the housing. I found a resolution by applying some isolating tape on top of the housing where the 3,5mm Jack is inserted.

Found it also on xda.

It's always been this way, using data from your usage of their apps to provide more relevant ads and search results.

They've just unified their privacy policies into one, that's all it is. Which makes sense really, since they've been using data between products, they SHOULD all fall under one privacy policy.

[Epic 4G General] squshy 7:
I'm not sure to what extent, if any, Google uses email context as data, but that's an unlikely scenario. Google search and ad analytics work a little more subtly than such a literal association, even more so when dealing with personal exchanges. A more likely Gmail example is being on the mailing list for several punk bands and seeing an ad for Alternative Press...or possibly a local venue. But as i said, i don't know much Gmail data is used, if any Gmail data is used at all.

[LG Nitro HD] KindaWack:
Recently I flashed RebelRom Beta 2, it resulted in a the LG logo being displayed on my phone but nothing would happen. So I did a restore from CWM, and the restore worked fine for a couple of days but at some point my phone lost power. Now whenever I turn it on I get boot loops and am unable to get into CWM. My question is is my phone bricked, and what can I do to avoid another brick? (Note I never formatted /data and I always follow installation instructions.)
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
It's a known problem, at this point the solution is to restore you back and don't shut off your phone. Reboots work fine, but shut off will boot loop it.

Hmmm so I can't turn off my phone. What do you mean by reboot/how do I reboot? Also does this mean I can't flash roms anymore? And finally is there a fix on the horizon?

[Off-topic] N00BY0815:
Hey guys, I am studying biology and an interesting thought came to my mind. Mutation and all that stuff is a very important thing in evolution. So I was thinking, that maybe mutation could be a way to make better software. So my question is, can anyone make a script that simply mutates a sourcecode? It is supposed to delete some signs, compile and somehow test if it is still (correctly) working. I dont know, if this is possible in any way, or useful, but just a thought in my mind, that needed to be written down. :D

And I also simply think, the smaller the sourcecode, the cleaner the result.

Maybe it could at least delete all the comments made in a code.

Hope u know what I mean and possibly benefit from it ;)
[Off-topic] dexter93:
Well it is possible to change a code and have the same result ... But pointless
[Off-topic] N00BY0815:
Not only change, but shorten it... isnt shortening good? like speeds up loading and stuff?
[Off-topic] dexter93:
Not always.. sometimes you can do that with no issues, tidier code etc... But most of the times you lose functionality
[Off-topic] N00BY0815:
I guess you didnt read my first post carefully. I said, shorten, compile & CHECK if its still properly working, because that's the way nature does it sometimes, and why shouldnt it work for our purpose, too? :)
[Off-topic] dexter93:
Well in nature mutations work negatively too.. you may get a result different than the one expected... Remember Mendel's experiments?
[Off-topic] N00BY0815:
Thats why the script should check if it WORKS! I know it might take long time to find a working and shortened version, but if a ROM e.g. reached final stage and cant be tweaked anymore, this could be a way to further improve it. I know it wont change the whole world, but I think it though might be interesting to test it. And if you dont like the idea, I'll accept it, but if anyone thinks it is a good idea, post it here :D
[Off-topic] dexter93:
I didnt say it isnt a good idea... I think code beautifiers do that job.. not sure though..
[Off-topic] Gibsonflyingv:
science is awesome
[Off-topic] Archer:
Beautifiers make code easier to read - indentation and consistent spacing etc.

Minimisers make code smaller. Look at these 2 examples of code with exactly the same functionality...

Normal code

Minimised code

There are tools for both beautifying and minimising code all over the web. They don't do anything to change the actual code though, so the functionality remains. As for the benefits, it depends on the type of development you are doing. With a minimised javascript your web page will load quicker. However, with a minimised C# windows application it won't make a jot of difference because the source code is compiled into an exe which has nothing to do with the layout or look of the code.

As for something that could "mutate" software into something else, I think you can forget about that for a loooooooooooooong time. There have been projects that involved software that writes software, but they've been so pointless that they've all been dropped in favour of humans doing development. Computers don't have the creativity required to make something like software. They can only do what they are told, and we don't have the means to explain creativity to them. In the words of Lao-tzu, "The way that can be told is not the eternal way", meaning "If I can put it into words then I ain't telling you right".

The only way a computer could "mutate" a piece of software into something else would be if there was a million of them, all shaped like monkeys, and they had a million typewriters. That is, of course, an analogy, but I'd like a monkey shaped computer.

tl;dr

No.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] stabloid:
Since updating my 3G Flyer to HC I've been quite impressed with it, but, there is one thing I would like to see.

My mum has recently got herself a 10" Samsung tablet running HC, and on that, you can zoom by touching 2 points on the screen and tilting the device towards or away from yourself.

It is a bit of a gimmick, but at times it could be quite useful.

Any ideas if this could be done?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
You're just not happy with the pinch to zoom that everyone else uses?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] stabloid:
Oh yeah, that does the job just fine.

Just sometimes, I would like the other method as it can be easier to use.

For example, when using RealVNC to do invoicing when I'm away from my office, it would just feel much more natural than the pinch to zoom feature. Can't explain why, just would.

Above all else, would just like the option.

Lol.

You restored from back up... what ROM/Kernel were you on when you made the back up? And what ROM/Kernel were you on when you tried to restore?

Add: You were trying to root in your first post and now you are flashing... that is why I was asking what method. CWM/ODIN/Heimdall....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nativesmiley:
i was on the stock everything when i made the backup, that was before i flashed my first rom. and i was on the "{rom}Cwm-GB-2.3.6-Octane-V3.0 XPLOD NO CIQ EDITION 12-10-11 now with power menu mod" when i tired to restore. i use the CWM on my first flashed of rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
Stock GB? Stock GB doesn't have CWM to make a nandroid back up. How did you make the back up?

If your phone will turn on, regardless on it's state, you can more than likely flash stock through ODIN or Heimdall. I read most people have problems restoring nandroid backups.

ROM-ODIN-2.3.6-Gingerbread Offical

The KJ6 Heimdall One-Click Collection
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nativesmiley:
i was on stock "everything" when i did the backup and when i was on "{rom}Cwm-GB-2.3.6-Octane-V3.0 XPLOD NO CIQ EDITION 12-10-11 now with power menu mod" when i tried to restore. i flashed my first rom with CWM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
Ok... I guess. You were on Stock everything and had CWM?

Use ODIN or Heimdall and flash back to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nativesmiley:
i did the backup from CWM. i was already rooted when i did the backup, i just didnt have a custom rom at the time. what is the best method? heimdall or odin?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
I guess what I am trying to tell you is... if you had CWM you could not have been on stock everything. CWM comes with a custom kernel you flashed. That is the only way to have CWM. That is why I was trying to determine what CWM you were in. Because nandroid backups/restores are not compatible with in different versions of CWM.

You are in a bootloop.

I use ODIN. Others use Heimdall. I prefer ODIN. Others say Heimdall is easy. If you have used either before, use the one you already have on your machine. If you haven't used either before, read how to use both and pick the one you think you can do without messing up your phone.

Here is thread about kernels and CWM and the very last post says it all.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cass1us:
Hello everyone.

Since i moved to US, getting to use my Motorola Milestone (A853, bought in Venezuela) has been a living hell.

Finally i got my code to unlock it and use my T-Mobile line but I'm getting the "Phone is subsidy locked" and it's not letting me to introduce the code i got.

Let me give you some context:

*My phone was running CM7 and once i got to US, it never got signal at all. At first i though it was the baseband but then i noticed this wasn't the problem. *After buying my T sim, i tried to unlock it but every time i introduced the code it said it was impossible to reach the network.

*Today i went back to stock and the option to introduce the code doesn't come up and all i get is the grey screen.

So far i've been looking around the internet and none of the special codes work to bring up the box to type the unlocking code.

Please help me!, i need my phone working A.S.A.P.

Current system: Official Android 2.2 Froyo from Telus.

Installed CM 7.1.5 and while the box to type the code pops now, it always rejects it saying "Network unlock request unsuccessful".

Hey folks,

How many other folks had/have issues with DSC7 and wifi? I did not like the fact that i needed to use a third party app to work around the issue. But I have to say I really really really like DSC7 and hope the WIFI issue is resolved soon. I think the issue stems from the base ROM, but that is just a educated guess.

I have gone back to GingerStreak244. I did a factory wipe and then installed a factory ROM (353), followed by StreakDroid, then got a bunch of FCs for the phone crap, did another factory reset reinstalled StreakDroid again and all is well.

I am looking for a Weather WIDGET that is large enough for the Streak but I cannot find one; everything I see is too small; so if you know of one tell me.
