I can explain in technical terms...you should never use them...task killers kill tasks which android OS will spend time restarting, by doing this, your battery and CPU will get used more and you will actually find your phone laggier and running out of battery faster....

I have lots of applications on my phone that need to have their permissions modified...

But I use them to see what crapware is starting itself for no good reason.. Sorry deja but if your app loss itself for more than 2 minutes twice a day?... It's crapware...

My phone my rules... I don't want something running unless I request it... I'm willing to wait for it to load if its goona run smoothly... this is the standard tradeoff quick load or smooth running... But if I haven't used WhatsApp in 3 days why does it run constantly regardless of settings??.. It's crapware

first: find out if your android device supports to act as a USB-host at all.

for drivers you wan hope for it to be detected as a normal mouse und use it with any sketch app I suppose.

If you use it at home only, maybe there is an app to use your computers pointer as a mouse on the android through wifi.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nsowon:
My device supports a mouse - thank you. So basic sketchpads should work if they have Android/Linux drivers? Or with the built-in mouse drivers?

Thanks very much for your comments and help. :)

I tried a Wacom tablet on my phone which has USB host support. It was recognized, but I could not use it as an input device. You might have better luck with your tablet/tablet combination.

Graphic tablet wasn't like generic-input device, it seems.

I'd like to use wacom bamboo tablet on acer a500 tablet.

So when I connected to a500, light was on but it doesn't do anything.

Of course, I also tried my usb keyboard and mice and also wireless keyboard and mice. And also usb memory stick and external hard disk. It worked them all. But wacom bamboo tablet doesn't work.

Anyway, I've got other information from articles here.

Settings app gone/missing [FB27]

I just flashed Calkulin's Stock Rooted FB27 and the settings app is missing. If I try to use "option--->settings" from the home screen nothing happens... Is this just something I am experiencing I haven't seen anyone else mention this as an issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
It has been said in the dev thread for the rom.. Sdid you flash through odin or cwm?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcallos:
Flashed in CWM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
In the dev thread its noted to use the de odex version.. Make sure to use calks format all and then flash the de odex version in cwm.. Followed by the modem in tye same session.. Then if you want cwm after just odin rogue fb21 rev 2 repack kernel and you should be alright.. Thats what i did.. If you read through the dev thread there was at least a page or 2 of them talking about it.. Kc was first to post the issue in that thread

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
I have two issues. We all know of them but I just thought I would write the first one down so Isaint can add it to the list.

Settings will FC when 4G is on in the stock rom. Calkulin obviously has fixed this in the deodexed version.

And I see this has been written already. But GPS icon will not go away. I am not having any issues getting a lock. If you having an issue you can use the lock on GB and reflash method. If it still doesn't work you might want to step outside and retry it.

That is all I got. This rom is pretty solid in my opinion.

this is called the gpsd bug. your battery will get eaten through in a few short hours. go to your battery stats and you'll see that "gpsd" is killing your battery. even turning off all gps services is not enough to kill it, and hot rebooting doesn't kill it either. you must fully reboot.

Why does everyone want this so fixed up? These builds will be corrected by sprint/samsung and when the final product comes out, let the devs do their work then. Every leak that has come out someone wants it perfectly running then a few days later on the next build the exact same thing. I say to the devs, leave it alone. As for the people that want to flash the unfinished leaks, do it knowing its not perfect and leave it alone. It's like trying to polish a terd....

in other releases someone noted that sprint and samsung check these posts, im not saying fix them now, but noting that what has not worked, i do believe the op should edit his first page when more than one person confirms the issue, that its added to a list on the first op's post. that way it is easier to see that you did too have the issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stargaterules:
Just want to say that my battery dropped 30% in 1 hour. Needless to say, went back to GB. I know these are just test builds, just putting my 2 cents.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abhaxus:
If you tried to use GPS in that hour, and it failed, you need to reboot. As soon as you leave GPS on an ICS build, gpsd runs constantly. Huge battery drain. If you reboot as soon as the GPS dies (or you leave the app), no problems. Obviously still a big bug, but its been a good workaround for me.

On the same note, I had REALLY weird GPS issues this weekend. Went backpacking and tried to use my phone in airplane mode with GPS and cardiotrainer. After a few seconds, GPS crashed, both during the drive to the park (about 90 minutes from my house), and when using it at the park. I could reboot and GPS would work again for a few seconds. Gave up after about a quarter mile on the trail. Had the phone on airplane mode both days, come back out of the woods and get in the car, rebooted the phone, pull up google nav and set for home, and GPS works the entire way back... Really really weird. Then I got a panic mode crash I haven't seen yet. CP crash or something.

I only need GPS for a few seconds each morning to get traffic for my drive to work, so I don't really care that much about overall performance. Other than that, ICS is going to be my daily driver :) Nova launcher (prime) is amazing. The accordion transition is sweet!

I think it has potential. The ability to move and arrange icons quickly is great, but after a while and you have everything set as you want it that kinda becomes redundant. It needs a few more features and it could be great. But it is very smooth and responsive. Not worth £10 though!

Hi,

I am heading to Las Vegas for a few days holiday and was looking to get a local sim card. AT&T seem a good deal, $7 for a sim from ebay, then $15 top up and join the $2 unlimited tariff, with unlimited data, sms etc.

Does anyone know if I need a new 4G type of sim or would the old type 3G sim do in my UK Galaxy Nexus?

I am not paranoid! Read 1st!!! This is a weird thing, actually happened to me:(:(:(

OK not long ago we made fun of the charger virus dude... now I am in a similar situation!

I have an external speaker, and it has a charger... weirdly, when I plug the charger to the wall and to the phone, touchscreen gets weird, very weird (it is OK 10 seconds, then every touch I do has an "echo" all over the screen, after a minute touchscreen stops... I turn screen off and it is back to normal if I unplug charger from the speaker, and speaker still in phone with music playing)

I tested with visual feedback for touch in cm9... but same behaviour on cm7...

So, to make you clear, I am not paranoid, I usually tell people that is they're imagination, but this is real! Not zombie, not virus, but a weird thing...

So, I have a speaker, it has 2 holes, one for phone and one for charging and a small battery inside... when I connect it to phone only, it works just fine, when it is also plugged to wall this happens:(:(:(:(:(

Can anyone help?(hope virusaah, the one with charger virus, sees this)

Again, I am not paranoid, this thing is checked with many touch tests... wtf is wrong?

[HTC Sensation] NinoFR:
Dear all,

I, maybe, have a stupid question but not able to find out the solution !

I am wondering how to change the HTC Sense default ring to accept/decline an incoming call when phone is locked or in deep sleep mode.

I find this not very user friendly to move the bubble "Accept" or "Decline" into the big ring ... I am expecting for a slider or a simple button....

Does anyone know how to modify this feature ?

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

Nino
[HTC Sensation] nistco92:
There are custom ROMs where you can revert the lock screen back to the default Android lock screen, but even then you will have to unlock via a slide then accept the call by hitting a button. Custom ROMs also allow you to decline a call by pressing a volume button.

Most touchscreen smartphones don't have a simple push-button to answer or decline calls, as a single touch can be incidental and thus happen in your pocket.

Note, however, that you can either move "Accept" or "Decline" into the big ring OR move the big ring to "Accept" or "Decline."
[HTC Sensation] Kameeeleon:
Also if you press volume down (probably up works as well but it's what I'm used to from a previous phone) it will silence the ringing/vibration without even having to take it out of your pocket.
[HTC Sensation] :
I either use one of the volume buttons, or the power button.
[HTC Sensation] NinoFR:
Thanks for your feedback.

I am, currently, using Elegencia ICS Rom for Sensation.

I will try to use vol up and down.

However, I was expecting a nice UI to accept/decline incoming call like the iPhone one !

Regards,

Nino
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Drew489:
Why the huge variation in size but not in features or functionality?

Example would be Red Sonja at over 600mb, most other ROMS around 300 and MIUI at 100mb?

I've been flashing dozens of ROMS since my original G1 and could never figure out the variance but have also never seen it so extreme.

Thanks for any info. And, FWIW, all ROMS mentioned are packaged with kernels and modems so that doesn't explain the size difference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
Scripts multiple launchers included apps added PNG images for theming it all depends and the miui port isn't fully functional plus its based of cm not tw most all Roms on the skyrocket have tw intact because of errors and other issues

Hit the thanks button if I helped
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
As mentioned above, SOME roms vary in size because of different apps and themes, like skyics stock and skyics speed, but this difference in size in relatively small. If ur talking about, say quikwiz, vs tpc v3, the reason is completely different. The way they have been packed is completely different. TPC v3 and a lot of the other roms that are HUGE in size use a method pertaining to the "DD" command in Linux, which packages the entire partition into one file using a filesystem (ext4 in our case). Its actually quite useful in computers for making an "image" of ur computer exactly the way u want it. Whereas quikwiz type roms merely zip the contents of the /system partition. Personally, I prefer the DD method the tpc and other large roms use because frankly I think its safer. It copies EXACTLY what is in the rom. I've seen and experienced a few problems where a complete wipe and flash to stock + re-root was necessary because of improper errors with the system partition. I can't be sure, but I'm almost certain they have to do with an improper cwm, which is less likely when they aren't just zipped.
