Put the not "official" themes at folder "AppEx/Sys/Theme" (NOT "AppEx/User/Theme/Download") using STune. These themes will be system themes and can not delete them using the phone, but ...

you can install any theme you want.

I only like lockscreen of gorilla theme, it's funny thing with banana, but icons are awful. TOO BAD there is no way to make own theme with lockscreen of this theme

I'm actually looking for something similar. Trying to find a earpeice + Microphone that is not bluetooth (tired of all the "great recpetion" claims) and I'd like it to be over the ear. Something like a gaming headset but with the ability to plug into a Micro USB port to be used on my Android phone.

Hi

if th google music app is open, can someone develop the possibility to share the current song or album with a friend, directly in mp3, via mail or other ways?

It could be a share button in the menu, allowing to share the song or the album.

Is it possible?

thanks

hey guys gotta a question?

previously i had an Xperia X10 wen ever i use to post anything on Facebook it use to say posted VIA xperia X10 with the sonyerricsson logo thr is there any way i can do that with the HTC apart from the saying posted via HTC Sense

i want it to say somthin lik posted from EVO 3D or somethin any idea ...

I'm looking for any app that can provide me facility to lock an app in memory so that I can access it quickly without waiting time.

Purpose for this hunt is, I needed "Smart Dialer" which stock dialer of CM failed to provide.. I installed GO Contacts EX and I loved that app. But, it takes like 5-7 seconds to load in memory if it was killed. I tried "RAM Manager" with hard multitasking feature but again, no perfect solution so far.

Hi guys !

I just had an accident and my phone was shock badly .

After a few day , It has proplem with calling and sms . I think it is because of the antena . I took it to a Repair Center and they said the motherboard was badly damaged and they couldn't fix it . So I have to pay 340$ for a new motherboard .

Would you guys please tell me how to know that board is orignal of HTC and How to know if it has 4G ? Cause my phone is Sensation 4G .

Thanks for reading my post .
[HTC Sensation] fruelim:
tip.

buy from ebay then you can always send it back and i dont think someone will sell a 3g if they advertise a 4g. with the power of the buyers nowadays on ebay sellers are carefull not to get negative feedback so you should be fine. infact i wouldnt buy a motherboard i would buy the same phone with a broken screen or somethingfrom ebay then you will learn how to take mobo out of the broken phone first without trying it out on yours

Is there any way to get the OTA

I can assure you OTA rootkeeper is not at fault. You must have modified files on there that are making the update fail. Please share a log of what went wrong on the update, seeing as that would make your problem much easier to fix.

Dont know about the rest of the things bt ICS Final does NOT have a file manager pre-installed. U will need to install one from the Market. I would reccomend Doggie Explorer.

but how can i change my theme into ICS ?

the theme changer says that there is a missing assets, and when i chose to apply anyway nothing changes ..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ace_viknesh:
Download ICS THEME HDPI by Sonny Sekhon from market. Ignore the missing assets notification. It works. I'm using it and have no problem.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ayush29k:
Nothing changes because the theme is already applied.

I think that one is Achep's ICS build026 theme, might be some earlier version.

If you want to change theme you will have to install a CM7 theme and then apply it through theme chooser.

For file explorer i recommend Astro and File Manager, they do everything and the interface is pretty good.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minasmorgul:
Hey guys , i have one question / problem

I have a desire HD with :

CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RC0-DesireHD-Kang

2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod-g295e82f kernel

12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.15_M3

and my problem is:

Every time i make a phone call , or receive a phone call , it vibrates after 3-20 seconds (during the call) and hang's up ! So ... I receive a call, answer , talk for 10 seconds and hang's up by itself . Same as if i make a call.

What do you think would be the problem? This is happening with all CM7 rom's stable , nightly and so on ...

Do you have the right RIL? G RIL not H RIL? Do you flashed Gapps?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minasmorgul:
Sorry but could you be more specific , about RIL ? were can I find it / flash it / sync it ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inzaghi75:
RIL is a library that acts as a bridge between your device's phone functions and the radio firmware in your device's communications chip (radio). Matching radio and RIL is always a good combination when you think of signal stability and battery consumption. That is why you should flash a matching RIL when you flash a new radio. Only for Sense based ROMs (not for CM or MIUI). You DO NOT need to flash a RIL if you use a recommended radio for a ROM. You need to flash RIL again if you flash another ROM.

To find your current RIL version, use Terminal emulator (from market) and type:

su

getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl"

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inzaghi75:
Is okay The RIL is right. And Gapps? Have you flashed it after the ROM?

i flashed the gapps after rom install ! so , can i update the radio maybe !?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inzaghi75:
If the RIL is okay the Radio is not the Problem for your Phone call. Hm.....Have you flashed CM7 for the first time with Full wipe? Have you tried to flash another ROM like ICS from Lord?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minasmorgul:
Yes i had many phones till now , and from the first one i've read carefully all the instructions. and for the CM7 coming from stock i did :

Recovery - Full Wipe.zip - install rom-install gapps ! did i do something wrong ? can you suggest another rom like cm7 , simple one ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inzaghi75:
To exclude the problem I recommend to flash another ROM like IceColdSandwich CM9. Make a Full wipe and flash the latest build and the kernel. Gapps are included. And look if you have Call problems.

Kernel

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minasmorgul:

What are the chances that it's going to make it?

It was in there for a good second before I managed to get it out. I quickly reached down pulled it out and did a battery pull as fast as I could. Now my question is, how long do I leave it to dry for before attempting to turn it back on?

It's presently on my patio air drying where I plan on leaving it for a full day. Then I plan on submerging it into a bowl of rice for yet another day.

Is this the right procedure and anyone have any other recommendations?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chardd23:
Please describe the toilet bowl, what was in it? how much poop/urine?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
You did all you could to save it. You actually have minimal chances of permanent damage if you really took it out in one sec. and pulled the battery.

I've saved this way a SGS1 but is stayed under water a good 5 to 10 minutes (time it took to my friend to stop crying and come find me and complain about dropping the phone in the toilet :) ).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NIK516:
You can get a water proof spay applied on the phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stephen289:
It should be fine if you got it out quick as your phone didn't get immersed in water for that long; just leave it out to air dry, wipe away any water and I'd probably recommend waiting over 24 hours depending on where you live... If you have a sim card, I'd suggest you to remove it as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k_myk:
If that bowl contained only water it should be ok. To be sure 100% you can put it in rice for some time, like overnight.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
There should be an app for a warning screen when you approach proximity of toilet. Bombs away.

Sent from my Nexus in Texas.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CrackBurglar:
I would have pulled the battery and sim immediately, then shook off any excess liquid... then sealed it in about 2 cups of white rice in a sealed baggie. And for no less than 48 hours, much more like 72...

Then there's the other crowd who not only would have done the above, but after shaking off the excess liquid, would have submerged it into 91% rubbing alcohol which would have sanitized it by removing impurities in the water. Then putting it into the rice baggie.

I'm not too keen on further submerging it into anything on purpose, but it makes sense as alcohol has drying properties.

As always, your mileage may vary.

Good Luck!

Thanks for all the replies guys.

When I get home later I'm gonna put it into a bag of rice for a further 48 hours, then hope for the best. Sadly, this is my 2nd Galaxy so if it doesn't work I'm gonna just hold off for the next best thing. The first one fell into the ocean. I had too much to drink so I more or less deserved that happening. This time though, I was trying to be so careful and made sure to keep the phone FAR away from the toilet (literally 3 feet or more) while I was reading an email. I turned slightly and my elbow accidentally hit my shower's door causing the phone to pop out of my hand. Out of all the places it could have landed, of course, it landed straight in the toilet bowl.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Personally, I wouldn't put it in rice, I would look around for some silica gel. The rice can (and will) get somewhat permanent dust under the screen, while the gel does not release dust/powder/etc.

No, it creates a water proof coating on all components, preventing water from every reaching them/get them wet.

..... We talked about this 1 page back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] govindadas:
Alcohol submersion sounds like an interesting idea. Any recommendations on which kind of alcohol to use?

Also silica beads/pearls does sound like a better idea than rice due to rice dust.

Also, maybe keeping it in a warm place to help evap the water might help, but then you might run into the issue of left behind minerals after the water evaps.

Good luck with it... My guess is that you will be fine, but it's just a probability game.

I would recommend keeping your smartphone away from water. Being that that was not the first time you had water damage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shoman24v:
I don't believe in the rice method.

Hows it going to pull water from the inside of a sealed phone? Leaving the water in there is going to cause it to corrode like others stated. Be careful, do not soak the LCD in alcohol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chirea.mircea:
If the water got in there then the phone isn't sealed. If it can get in, it can get out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Think about it. How did the water get inside the phone in the first place? Its not sealed...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shoman24v:
I'm aware the phone isn't literally sealed guys. I should have been more specific. It's a lot easier for the water to go in than come out. Hence why when I dropped my phone in the toilet I took it apart and cleaned it with alcohol. Was usable in 30 minutes.

Electronics are pretty tricky when it comes to getting wet, that's why getting that battery out as soon as possible is critical. Still can be hit or miss.
