[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] magicbumm328:
Ok I am running Miui with adw launcher ex and I am trying to make a clean theme with minimalistic text. I cannot seem to get the minimalistic text widget to lay flush with the screen however. (see below pic) The right side and the bottom will not lay flush with the screen. I have seen plenty of screens look sooo clean using miui and minimalistic text and adw launcher but I cant for the life of me figure out how to get this set up going. Also it seems that when people make this clean themes that their icons are spaced closer together and I would like to know how to do that to if anyone who customizes their phone in this manner knows how. I would really appreciate and answer at the very least on how to make the widget lay flush with the screen. Any help on these kinds of customizations though are welcome!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SamsungGalaxyS2Att:
Good Luck!

Although I can't help you with the widget touching all sides (I've had that problem, it sucks) I can help you with getting your icons closer together. Some where in the settings of ADW Launcher (Maybe like Homescreen or Icons) In there look for something that says, "Rows and Colums" and adjust them to your liking. On default, most android phones are set up at 4x4.

It's because you are hiding the dock. For whatever reason the alignment is off when the dock is hidden. I've emailed them about it but no reply..

Say if I flashed a custom "stock rom" with boot image and everything as such in the link below.

(http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21922297&postcount=1)

Now when I relock my bootloader, I get the security warning - does this mean I have to flash a RUU so i can relock it without the security warning?

I've spent at least 6 straight hours trying to get S-Off to no avail.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antique_Angel:
Hello guys, I've been searching on xda-forums and I didn't found anything so here is the noob question.

- What is bootloader and what will I gain by unlocking this?

- I've got "11W22" Black x8 with cypress, so what are the risk of my phone? (I mean, I will install it, loose waranty, but what are disadvantages?)

- What are "all" the advantages of unlocking bootloader?

- What are the characteristic of kernels (alfs, nAa)(pros and cons) and what are battery life consumption?

I see most of you here using custom kernels and all devs are making ROMs for custom kernels.

The most important things for me are: battery life (need 2-3 days with normal use), stability and fullworking ROM (like stock one).

Can you help me?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunff:
- Think of bootloader as the BIOS of your PC.

- You have to unlock bootloader to install custom kernels

- The principal advantage of custom kernel is better performance: you can set swap, overclock, without having to patch modules, has better 3D librarys, etc.

- Since you have a X8, run S1 Tool and verify certificate, to see how to unlock.

- Battery life depends on which rom, how apps you have installed, etc. Dont expect much, cause after all, we have a smartphone (i guess you sleep every night right? so why not left it charging?)

- The main difference between Alfs and nAa is the support of ROMS

nAa = MiniCM based ROMs

Alfs = GDX based ROMs

- Least but not last, you can re-lock your bootloader :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antique_Angel:
Thanks man, really what I needed.

I've got another questions to you:

1 - With unlocked bootloader, can I get back to Stock ROM by using SE application? (In case if anything someday gets ugly and I could need to "reset" everything and start again)

2 - Battery - I know that it depends on ROM and I shall recharge it every day, this is what I'm doing, but with custom kernels the battery improves or gets worse? Or stays the same?

3 - If unlock bootloader is that good, why relocking it?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunff:
1. Yes you can go back. Just use PC Companion, it restore stock kernel and ROM, and then you relock your bootloader. :)

2. I think that stays the same or gets better. You should consider that stock is Android 2.1 and the most of ROMs are 2.3. More recurses, a little bit more battery.

3. I dont know, but I guess if you relock your bootloader, you still have the warranty, in case that any hardware fails. (verify this with someone more pro-user)

Sorry for my english errors, still learning. :D

I'm using nAa + MiniCM and my battery is dropping 5% every 8-9 hrs. But i have a weak signal (consumes more battery), and 3G, Wifi disable.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antique_Angel:
Thanks mate, I will unlock it right now to install GX Special Edition or Haka's or Froyo Pro (will see which of them are better for me).

I recently unlocked my bootloader succesfully according to this guide.

Then i installed a Kernel (LinuxDX) that bricked my phone and had to restore with Sony Erricson Update Service.

I am using GingerDX now and my log from s1tool is this:

I know that this RUNNING S1_EROM VER "r8A029" has an "r" that means that my bootloader is unlocked but i want to be sure that i can install another kernel without bricking my phone again.

So, can i install safely another kernel ?

Sorry for my english and my noobness i am new here ... :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Yes, you can safely flash another kernel.

If you want to stay with GingerDX you can switch to alfsamsung's Alfs kernel - don't forget to flash the vold update in CWM or you will have problems mounting the SD.

If you want to change to nobodyAtall's nAa kernel you also need to change to the MiniCM7 2.1.9 ROM - GingerDX does NOT work on nAa's kernel. This means you first flash the kernel, reboot, enter CWM right away and flash the ROM (you hopefully copied onto the SD card beforehand).
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mertang:
While i was waiting for a reply i look around some kernels and i must say i got pretty much confused.

I noticed that most kernels have in common the ext2/3/4 , CPU governon and swap (?).

I cant find infos for these and i dont have a clue of what they are for.:confused:

And btw smartass is a CPU governon or something else ?

Thnx for the reply as i cant press thank button yet i think.:p

Edit: Also any info for what X8Gesture is for ?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Sparks:
You cant use PCC when you have a custom kernel installed, you need to use SEUS which works perfectly and does the same job.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunff:
For me, PCC works great with custom kernel. I already repair 2x with no problems.

---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------

- Most of kernels have the same features, but supports a different kind of ROMs.

- SmartASS is a CPU Governor: it increase/decrease clock speed of processor when need it. (Google for more info)

- X8Gesture is a module for fake dual touch in Synaptics touchscreen. In most custom kernel, it already implemented.

- Swap is linux virtual memory (Google for info)

- Ext 2/3/4 linux filesystem. You partition your card, and then you can install apps on it.

Can you explain why not?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Honestly guys I can't. Sorry :(. I suppose if you weren't switching roms it would be ok. Its just that in my one year history here at xda I have heard from alot of well seasoned users say not to do it. Also I have seen alot of trouble for people that have done it. So I just simply don't do it. Wish I could explain more
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
backing up and restoring system data is fine if you dont switch roms or even switch to a different version of the same rom (sometimes its ok, sometimes not)

i have done it, but its typically not recommended.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Thx PG, I'm just trying to understand the reason for not doing it... like what problems would occur? Just trying to learn.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hcyplr29:
^^^

Same here. I never backup data. WHY?? Good Question?? What I've seen on XDA, people who do have a lot of issues with force closes etc. I just use it to back up my Apps so I don't have to do them one by one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
if you backup system data from one rom and restore to another, when you reboot you will get nothing but force closes. you will have to reflash your rom to fix it.

if you are flashing the same version of the rom and just want all your stuff the same, it shouldnt affect anything

USER data is perfectly safe to backup. i get sick of so many people spreading untruths around about TiBu (i have seen tons)....backing up and restoring USER DATA AND APPS is perfectly fine. I have been using Titanium Backup for over a year and a half and have had more mobile devices in that timeframe than most have ever had in their lives, and every one of them i was able to use Titanium Backup to restore apps+data from OTHER devices to each other. hell, i share the same TiBu folder between my gs2, incredible s, and my vivid right now. then i have a modified version of the same folder for my galaxy tab (removed all phone-related apps)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
^^^^^ this

I've migrated app backups through 3 different android phones, no problems. As for system data, bad idea. Entering your email address is far easier than reflashing a rom because of fc's

Just as a suggestion...always do the clean install method:

- nandroid backup

- format system

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache/dalvik

- reboot recovery

- flash ICS ROM

- flash newest joker gapps

- reboot

- reboot again
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Yeah. Most issues are caused by a failure to wipe.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rizzyrailed:
Make sure you get the cwm from joker too. Dont use the one rom manager gives you. It wouldnt let me flash anything.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xdajunkman:
I have a phone running Froyo that has a physcal T9 keyboard. When one of the T9 number keys is pressed while on the launcher screen, instead of launching the dialer as would be expected, the phone interprets the keypress as a text entry and launches the multi-search app instead. For example, if I press on the number '2' button, it interprets this as text input of the letter 'a' and opens the search app with the letter 'a' as the initial input.

I am trying to alter this behavior. I have tried picking through the framework files to try and find something that pertains to this, and even wrote my own app with the intents and intent filters set to the same as those of the search app, but cannot get anything to open with a number button press other than the damn search app.

Any suggestions on how to change this behavior are appreciated.

Entertain me for a little bit on this one. I'm using Chrome OS Lime on my laptop, and was in lurve with the speed and boot time it provides, but the weirdness that comes with having less than perfect web standard support is starting to get to me. So I figured, what if there could be an emulator that could run Android under Chromium, and you can vnc into it, similar to the Ubuntu launcher app. That way, you could light up the Android Emulator for Netflix and games and local operations, and kill it dead when you need the speed. Anyway, considering Android is made of Java, and Chrome has the native client, it shouldn't be that big a stretch to set up a port, right?
