Trying it out.
[Android Apps and Games] GuestK0045:
Can you make this for 2.2.1 as 25% of andriods are froyo still :/
[Android Apps and Games] Bloodflame:
very nice! glad to see something a little different :) i left a quick review on the Market
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
I had that feature in the prior versions. I decided to take it out because it was a bit inconsistent, since the android API post 2.2 (froyo) doesn't garentee the app you're trying to kill will be immediately terminated at your request.

- ne0fhyk
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
I will look into it. I initially decided to target 2.3.3+ as these are the only versions I have devices for I could test on.

- ne0fhyk
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
Thanks for the feedback. My primary focus has been on feature completeness, and usability.

For the future updates, I plan to focus on polishing the app, both at the runtime/memory, and at the UI level.

Windows previews is a big one in my todo list. However it's pretty complex, and I'm still trying to get it to work. It's definitely possible though given the amount of screenshot apps in the android market.

Any hints/help regarding how to implement screenshot like functionality is definitely appreciated.

- ne0fhyk
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
I just updated the app, and included support for android 2.2 devices.
[Android Apps and Games] .xxx.:
This is one of the most awesome launcher ever installed on my cell.
[Android Apps and Games] DJBhardwaj:
Just in love with this launcher.

If any day their is a paid version then i am surely paying ;)

Thanks mate for such a nice launcher :)
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
There is a paid key that gets rid of the ads. Look for 'taskarou launcher key' on the market.

Any chance to support ldpi? Thanks

Swyped from my crappy Galaxy Mini
[Android Apps and Games] Nagelzz:
Hey man. Great stuff.

Is it possible to add a 'favourites' pane? That would be top of the iceberg. Really love it being overlay of current app :D

Thanks man.
[Android Apps and Games] Pickx:
Wow, that's quite amazing. Fantastic job.
[Android Apps and Games] thealmightysaj:
Great job, can you make it so that you can close the open apps by swiping them off the screen just like in web os.
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
the bottom tray can already be used to set shortcuts to up to 4 favourite apps. do you have another idea in mind?

- ne0fhyk
[Android Apps and Games] negrobembon:
I like it but, but it always dissapears and i have no way to bring it back
[Android Apps and Games] ne0fhyk:
What do you mean it always disappear?

- ne0fhyk
[Android Apps and Games] negrobembon:
Im using it, then when i press back button it switches back to stock SE home and when i try to go back to taskarou either by pressing home(set as default) or selecting the desktop icon it never appears, only the options
[LG Optimus 2x] tpowell.ca:
Anyone notice that after updating Adobe Flash to 11 from 10.3 video playback seems more choppy?

I can barely play 480 line videos now.
[LG Optimus 2x] ClausG76:
I use 10.3.185.25. It's the only one that will play online video using cm7 based roms
[LG Optimus 2x] mantork:
11.1 can play on miui, but have several problems , even with 10.3, adobe and flash sucks
[LG Optimus 2x] Bochdalek:
Where can I find that version ?
[LG Optimus 2x] tpowell.ca:
I'm now using 10.3.186.7, downgraded and haven't looked back.

Sure, its not the greatest but 11 is total ballz.

Just do a search for "Adobe Flash 10.3 apk" eventually you'll hit x.186.7
[LG Optimus 2x] forforce:
The best version for me is com.adobe.flashplayer.v10.2.157.51.apk. But I still can't play 720p videos smooth, on youtube from browser. Can somebody help with that? if it's possibile. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Your device wouldn't benifit from playing it in 720 so wtf would be the point, best your small screen would do is 480.
[LG Optimus 2x] forforce:
I want that for when I connect it to Hdmi on my tv. Some ppl on the forum say that it is possibile but how!
[LG Optimus 2x] Balano:
There is a diffrence is in the coding i think. 720p looks better eventhough the screen is only 480p.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Lol....no.

@Forforce when you connect via hdmi the image is upscaled very well you would not notice the difference between 480 upscaled and 720 besides that the roms that do support 720 flash in the browser still don't do it very well so performance will still be choppy and isn't worth using 720 over 480. Maybe ICS will change somethings and support it better but i doubt it.
[LG Optimus 2x] slebit:
I also use 10.3, version 11 is not working well for me.
[TouchPad General] vinscuzzy:
Anyone having trouble with the YouTube app? Everytime I load a video it force closes. Was working fine yesterday. I uninstalled, cleared data and cache, then wiped dalvic and cache in cmw, reflashed gapps, etc. Nothing fixes it. I searched on Google and it appears Asus transformer users with ics are experiencing the same issue today. Also, it says incompatible when you search it in the market. Anyone else??

Edit: Users with Toshiba thrive are reporting the same issue. Maybe its a server issue?
[TouchPad General] lvpre:
Try this: http://dev-host.org/7mN

It is a phone version, but it works. You'll have to reflash gapps to restore the tablet app.
[TouchPad General] dhoshman:
Same issue here on my touch pad...
[TouchPad General] jjdevega:
Having the same issue! I'm about to wipe my Prime to see if that clears it up. But if its YouTube then I may wait.

Edit: Just checked my wifes SGT 10.1 and it to is force closing. Looking to be YouTube issues.
[TouchPad General] techie76:
+1 Glad to know i'm not alone. I also tried clearing data and cache etc. with no luck.
[TouchPad General] bajingo:
can't test it right now but it must be a YT issue not a Touchpad problem.
[TouchPad General] kumar754:
mine too

i thought my setup is messed up... so i cleared all cache and reflash with gapps and gaaps-fix.. everything was same except Youtube. and then saw this thread..

its the youtube itself.. may b google trying to block touchpad again ;)

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muffycheeks:
My Xoom is not recognized by the market as a option for the You Tube app. Where as my HTC Evo phone is. I can play youtube on my phone but not on my Xoom. So you do the math.

update: Found this on the Xoom Forum and confirmed working; ......."Had a similar problem on XOOM with ICS EOS version 1.0.0. I ended up going to Settings - Apps - ALL - clicking on the YouTube app and then clearing the cache - clearing data and then force stopping the app."
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sportsinger75:
It's not just a problem with AOSP roms, I'm experiencing it with my stock Xoom on ICS.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steineronie:
I just cleared the cache, the data, and I force closed the YouTube app, and now it is working for me! Try it and see if it works!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rudrn20000:
I used to use a Galaxy S and I feel like Razr Maxx is falling behind with multi touch. Sometimes when I type fast, Razr would skip a letter. Also, the vibration is a bit clumsy compared to my previous phone. Other than that I love this phone. Is mine a defective phone ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] guyhoang:
The stock keyboard sucks for speed typing. Try a 3rd party one.

Im using thumb keyboard and theres no lag.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Adauth:
As stated the stock keyboard isn't all that great. There are plenty of keyboard apps in the market to choose from. I like Flex T9 myself.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] garywojdan81:
The included Swype KB seems pretty snappy.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dscribe:
One vote here for Swiftkey. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mac208x:
Yeah noticed that also. Even with 3rd party
[Motorola Droid RAZR] koreanschoolkid:
The screen sometimes does not register a Swype for me but overall Swype feels the same as on my tablet or previous phone. I do wish the sgs2 had been on big red though. Honestly the razr maxx just feels weird
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rudrn20000:
yeah.. I tried couple keyboards but they are stil lthe same... I'm typing really slow right now..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jeffiphone:
I noticed this as well when I had a Razr. Even seemed like it scrolled a little funny when I was scrolling through apps or browsing websites.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Touch-ee:
SwiftKey X is my keyboard of choice. I will admit the keyboard does not work as well on the Razr as it did on my Thunderbolt. But i think its because the Razr has a larger screen res so the keys are smaller than they were on my Tbolt. Not sure.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rudrn20000:
-----------------------
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rudrn20000:
Do you guys think there will be an update to fix this problem?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dccoh:
Depends, you blanked out your message, so not sure what the problem was :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rudrn20000:
The keys not registering that well. There is a buy one get one free smartphone thing going on the VWS website and my brother wants to get a new phone. So I'm gonna returen mine, order a new one and see how it is.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DXL007:
I had the razr and the razr maxx... it's the same on both. I use swiftkey
[Motorola Photon 4G] MisterTedster:
I've been getting FCs with apps like Tiny Tower and HeyTell on all stock-based roms that I've flashed.

However, this does not occur on sbf 198_7.

Any ideas?

Edit: I should mention that I'm using locked 4G-capable versions of these roms.
[Motorola Photon 4G] andychan3e:
Yeah I get the same problem but I noticed that it happens on the deodexed version. The "update 1024 (data fixed)". I think any rom that uses that will get the fc problem. I know rocko rom has the same problem.
[Motorola Photon 4G] andychan3e:
If you flash SBF 198_6 then install the 198_7 it fixes the problem.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Plancy:
Flash SBF 198_6, then flash 198_7, or "install" 198_7? How do you install it :\ thanks
[Motorola Photon 4G] andychan3e:
nevermind flashing 198_6 wont help.

i just figured out that some files are missing in the deodexed version.

when i copied it i lost battery percentage 1% increment.

once i find out which specific file it is, ill upload it
[Motorola Photon 4G] andychan3e:
i figured it out.

copy "com.google.android.maps.jar"

to "/system/framework/"

you must have root

and a file explorer that uses root

ie. root explorer, es file manager, ...

es file manager: you need to go to "settings"

and enable "root explorer" and "mount file system"
[Motorola Photon 4G] RockoDev:
I dont know how that got deleted from my Rom but thanks
[Vibrant General] sneakysnake16:
So I just dropped my beloved vibrant ok the toilet and need reassurance, anyone whos done it before, will it live? So far its working ok, random color spasms and headphone port sounded distorted for a second but stopped when I paused music. It hasnt happened in about 15 minutes and the phone fell about an hour ago and dryed for about 30 minutes. I ran it over with a bike before on accident and it still worked and I love this phone so hopefully it will survive. Anyway worst damage to happen to your phone and it still worked?
[Vibrant General] Zuramon:
Turn off your phone, take out the battery and put it in a bag of rice. Good as new in about 2 hours.
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Before you put it in rice, might want to clean the ports and anything that you can access with distilled water. This will hopefully prevent corrosion from rusty, particle ridden toilet water.
[Vibrant General] cashmundy:
I was at an Ace Hardware where they were selling, for five or ten bucks, a plastic bag with some dessicant for wet-phone rescue. Rice or any dessicant should work fine. I would make sure no rice dust gets into phone.

If you have any kind of blower or compressed air, blowing it out gently on no heat first might be a good idea. Also, I would first take phone somewhat apart, remove battery, sim, sdcard. Dry loose parts by hand, then blow out phone, especially all ports and contacts.

Some kind of tuner-cleaner might be an option if needed.
[Vibrant General] sneakysnake16:
Thanks guys I took the whole phone apart yesterday and air dryed/ blew air in to dry it out and its working great. Only issue is the volume down rocker doesnt work 100% I have to press it a couple times to make it work. Any way to fix that?
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
your phone has been through hell haha!

unfortunately there isnt much anyone here can tell you. there are certain things you can do to get as much water out as possible like the rice trick, swabbing all ports, etc. but in the long run, theres really no way of telling if any water got in deep enough to go unnoticed/uncleanable, and actually reached a point where it could cause damage <--- and if thats the case, like Woodrube said, you may experience issues somewhere down the road, even long enough to the point when youve totally forgotten about dropping it in the toilet, and youll say "how come this started happening all of a sudden?"

sucks man, gotta be careful...i went to the bathroom one night to relieve myself, after 1 or 2 drinks ;), and for some reason i thought that holding my phone in the same hand that was aiming wasnt the worst idea ever......yup, i ended up pissing on my blackberry :rolleyes:
[Vibrant General] cashmundy:
If it was my phone, I'd get some tuner-cleaner and shoot it into the switch and hope.
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Lol. No really I laughed out loud and these ladies sitting next to me turned and looked. Brings new life to the phrase "piss on blackberry".
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
100% true story...not my highest point haha, although it did ultimately lead to me getting my vibrant, so i guess it can be considered a win of sorts

I don't use an external SD Card, and never did.

Are you still able to see the Internal SD through recovery?

If you are still able to see it in recovery then doing a clean install as mentioned above should fix it. I would Odin to stock first and make sure repartition is checked when you do so, then reflash MIUI.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] al mon:
Is there an easy way to revert back from the latest ASUS update released on 2/8/12?

This update jacked up Youtube and I can no longer see additional wi-fi hotspots.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
Ok...so first off, no, you can't roll back. We don't have recovery yet, so no.

Secondly, I believe the youtube problem has been found to not be the result of the update, but on their server side.

As far as the remaining problem, not sure I can help you there without more info.

[General Questions and Answers] mddcflimsreal:
I know this isn't your ordinary question but. Does anyone know where to get european phones in Colorado. I always love them because they stand out. I know that with T-Mobile I'd only get edge on most. But anyone got any ideas on where I can maybe find one in Colorado other then eBay?
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
I can't help you with locating them mate, but I can tell you that select European models do actually offer the 1700MHz frequency you'd need for T-Mobile 3G.

European phones use either 900 or 2100MHz for 3G. T-Mobile uses 1700/2100 together, meaning you need both bands in action at the same time (download/upload).

A couple that spring to mind are the X515M HTC Evo 3D and the S710E HTC Incredible S. If you find yourself looking at a couple on eBay or just unsure in general, feel free to PM me a link or a model number and I will happily help you out :)

Good luck with your search!
[General Questions and Answers] mddcflimsreal:
Thanks. And I was very interested in the evo 3D and the sensation XL. But both were rather pricey. I have a few devices now. And there alright. I'm probably gonna sell to get the evo or XL. What do you like?
[General Questions and Answers] mddcflimsreal:
But wouldn't both be edge?
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Both are pricey, the Sensation XL is ridiculous! I've seen the Evo 3D as low as 300 (new) on eBay Australia.

Personally I really liked the Evo 3D. It has a great feel in the hand and was much speedier than the original Sensation. The 3D implementation is poorer than say, LG or Sharp (Sharp's is undeniably the best) but the overall performance is great. Excellent LCD and promising camera.

I've never tried (or even seen in person) the XL, but I am a bit of a pixel fiend so it's one I would give a miss anyway. WVGA on a screen that big is not for me. Plus with the Beats headsets adding to the price I'd be paying top-dollar for something I wouldn't even use.

I know for a fact both those models I listed do 1700MHz 3G. One bloke in the Marketplace wanted US$500 for his X515M for that very reason :)
[General Questions and Answers] mddcflimsreal:
That price on the XL is rough. I did like the size. And I found ONE on a local Craigslist. Yeah they wanted 550. But I think I just need to sell all my phones and move on to the 3D. I have a Nexus S (hate it) nexus one. (Eh. Nice yet little slow) LG Shine Plus(great cheap 10 dollar android I picked up in Canada) my HTC Desire(would be using if it wasn't U.S Cellular CDMA) but what about the battery on the evo? Is it good. My nexus s is a battery alcoholic. I need it to last a day if not more.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Nah that price was for a 3vo. XLs are still around the 600 mark over here. I'm not sure the XL does 1700, it does do 850 though.

That's a nice little collection you have there :) Pictures of the Shine Plus really intrigue me, it looks to be a tidy little backup phone. Even the QWERTY looks good and LGs QWERTYs generally suck.

Battery life is very subjective. What's good to me, may be sh*thouse to you. I don't expect much more than 12 hours out of any phone battery (pretty heavy user now) but the 3vo was almost able to see me out two days. If you get a brand new one, don't make a judgement call about the battery life within the first couple of weeks. Your battery will need that long charging/discharging to really hit its full potential :)

Although the 3D is just a gimmick, the handset itself is very capable. Provided you don't mind a big phone, of course :p
[General Questions and Answers] mddcflimsreal:
Well it looked as the XL there was one that did 1700 2100. And the evo I found. was 429 plus overnighted shipping Free.
[General Questions and Answers] mddcflimsreal:
Yeah. I like the Evo. So far my winner. But I have a Milestone as well. (Work at a phone store, and also a private reseller, this why I have many phones) and I was looking at the milestone 2. Didn't find very good specs on it. And

The shines keyboard is quiet promising. I love it. I've been using the hell out of it. Super durable. Heavy but mostly metal. Better durability then the us copy also known as the ally. Which I ran across the street. phone flew out my hoodie pocket(noob move) and the shine right into the street. Minimal damage was found.
