Mines not blurry? Have you had an eye exam?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hyelton:
Its not really blurry fully. It more seems a little out of focus. When I change the DPI it looks fine when I lower it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
If you're rooted and have CWM, youcould use UOT kitchen to cook up a mod for status bar icons. Pretty easy to do, modded mine last night. I also noticed that the stock ones are a bit fuzzy if you look closely, it seems to be because they tried to put a dark grey border around the bars, but it looks like the bars are bleeding into the black as a result.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntZee:
Hello all, a quick question here.

I've done a search on this issue and didn't seem to find any match.

I run a stock off the shelf Note, no modifications. It connects, without any problem, with my home wifi. On many occasions now, when I'm in public place with open WiFi, I run quick tests to see if it connects. It does and says CONNECTED with a good speed. I check if it's really connected by refreshing my weather report and I try the ESPN Score app. EVERY TIME it says that it can't connect to the respective servers. So I'm actually NOT CONNECTED at all? I'll disconnect and reconnect several times and it gives me good connection speeds, but I'm still off air.

When I get home, I hit the WiFi, and in a couple seconds I'm connected with working apps.

I've tried everything and just have no idea what's blocking connections away from my house?

I run both Lookout and AVG on my phone and haven't found any settings from them that might be the reason for the blocking?

Any ideas? :confused:

Thanks. ;)

In my experience most public WiFi spots require you to log in through the browser to set up the connection. It is there, but until you log in, nothing but their page is accessible.

All they want is your email and to show some ads, so it normally fine to do.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickstermar555:
Usually when you open a browser or website, it should load up a "LOGIN" screen for you to enter a username or password.

It also depends where you are, most libraries and hospitals will give you access to free Wi-Fi without a login. In coffee shops or an office building, you will need a login.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntZee:
Thanks for your input!

I'm embarrassed to say that I actually never tried opening the browser, I just kept trying to make the apps. and widgets connect.

I will definitely give that a try next time I'm out. I really have no desire to use the public open WiFi's because of the threat of being hijacked or spied on by some random coffee drinking hacker, I just wanted to make sure all my phone functions work properly.

Thanks again!

many open spots lock down different ports to stop people using loads of bandwidth
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irajvi:
if it gets connected with 1 wifi then it should with others, no problem with the system.

All public wifi spots I use will connect but do nothing until I load the browser and agree to their terms of service etc.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nomailx:
Ok guys, with the lack of xperia mini pro keyboard support by android games, i found another solution:

Splashtop remote desktop.

Just install PC games which don't require a mouse, and play them through splashtop.

Pros:

- Much more game available.

- You don't use as much as phone resources as a "inside game".

- PC quality high graphics games on your phone.

- You can really enjoy the xperia mini pro as it was the xperia play.

cons:

- constant good internet connection needed.

- pc must be on all the time so you can login from anywhere.

PS:

This also works for OnLive*. I could play assassin creed's free trial for 10 minutes and perform all the moves. Some were harder but still, it's great to see that even if your keyboard is not supported directly, it's still possible remotely.

* Not OnLive Android App. OnLive Desktop which you will start from your phone with splashtop, so the keyboard of your mini will be fully functional.

note: No, there was no latency. Couldn't believe it myself.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
good idea man. will try this.

oh and u actually can control the games using a mouse. u need a logitech or any wireless or usb mouse i guess.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] urra901109:
I think splashtop uses some kind of VNC server/client alike right? What about input latency? Because the last time i tried to stream my game to ipod touch, it suffers from a very delayed input, and choppy video.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jimieo:
I want to know if there is a mod available that would allow me to change the standard American voice on my phone to a British or Irish accented voice. Irish accent is preferred.

I did find this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.svox.classic

But I'm looking for more of a permanent option... if there is one.

Thanks :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pixelation:
There are many in the market, but you might have to pay for a more permanent option.. I believe they are relatively cheap

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jimieo:
Do you know if there is a file I could just copy and replace? I did see a British accent option in the market. But I'd just prefer to just change it in the OS if I can.

No Irish accents in the market :<
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diSke:
Hi guys

I know that this question has been asked 1000+++ times before.

But I can't find a solution for mine in any of those threads.

I'm running AOKP B27 on my Galaxy Nexus and I would like to mod the SystemUI

to my needs. As you might know, AOKP added a feature that you have a weather

window when your status bar is expanded.

That aside, when I expand my status bar, all text is ICS blue.

I want to change that and make all text white.

I've managed to make the carrier text and date white. Now I need the weather text

and all toggles text in white.

Any idea where I can change that? I've searched troughout the many .xml files

in it but I can't find it!

Thanks in advance

diSke
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MR H3LLMAN:
I can't remember if it is in systemui or framework but its a value called "ticker"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] runandhide05:
99% sure its in the framework-Res.apk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MR H3LLMAN:
It is. I just checked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
systemUi.apk\res\values\styles.xml and there will be 3 lines that reference @blueholo bla bla bla just add in #ffffffff hex value for the white text.

what line looks like after edit... <item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>

now the weather text is prolly handled by smali/java.

good day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diSke:
What's the path name? I can't find "Ticker" anywhere in framework-res

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diSke:
Yes I knew that. That's how I changed date and carrier text.

But how do I have to edit the toggles and weather text?

If it's in smali/java, how do I mod that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kevin3328:
This is how u do it

My bad its in framework Res styles

Window something.. text is all white ffffffff its about 1/8 down the page
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kevin3328:
Might b called window tile or window view I can't remember exactly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kevin3328:
The other value to check is systemui values drawable ticker
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diSke:
Can't find it anywhere...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kevin3328:
In framework Res... values... styles folder open it up scroll down until you see the first hex value #ffffffff it might be called window dialogue or something its there I made a couple themes already with all text in status bar and drop down changed
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diSke:
<style name="TextAppearance.WindowTitle" parent="@style/TextAppearance">
<item name="textSize">14.0sp</item>
<item name="textStyle">bold</item>
<item name="textColor">#ffffffff</item>
</style>

Is that the one? It's the second hex value in the document.

Because the first is about panelcolorbackground which I assume has nothing to do with text?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] svavrek:
This may/may not be an old thread, but here's what I did. I took and decompiled the SystemUI.apk so I can edit the xml files. I found the styles.xml file in the \res\values folder. I want to change my status bar text to blue instead of grey... I changed all of the @blueholo lines to the #FF1E90FF which is the color I picked. Now, I recompiled, put it on my phone, and before I rename it/get it ready to go, I want to make sure of something... the original apk file is 2.47MB, the new one - only editing a few lines of code - is 1.82MB. Confused as to why just a few lines of code would be almost 1 MB of data, where it should only be a few kb... Is this going to screw something up?? Please, no answers like "Install and find out"... It's a brand new Note 2 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TonyTurboII:
How about "Nandroid, then install and find out?"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kevin3328:
How did u decompile.. Did u use apktool
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
Being an advid lover of swype and not particularly caring for the built in trace options on the HTC Flyer. I figured I would try SlideIT.

I don't particularly like slideIT on the phone as swype just feels smoother and seems to manage space better.

However, I figured I would test it on the flyer and feel it is a great alternative to the stock HTC trace keyboard with a few extra features. I would not pay 5$ for it, but on sale for .99$ it is a great deal. I would highly suggest trying it out as swype seems to have no real concern about officially supporting the HTC flyer.

https://market.android.com/details?...t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5kYXN1ci5zbGlkZWl0Il0.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] n7of9:
i bought it during the 10c sale...the only thing i like about it is the skins...it doesn't hold a candle to Swype on accuracy and word prediction - but yes, it's better than the stock Trace
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
Why not just use Swype then? Runs fine for me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] n7of9:
what version O/S are you running? the last time i tried to download it on Honeycomb it didn't let me

edit: i just tried again, i get "this is not an android phone" from the 'get' URL
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
I'm on the stock GB ROM. That's probably why it works for me. I just loaded a black and white version I had sitting on my PC. Probably gonna root pretty soon, just gotta buy a new sd card for the tab. Looking forward to trying some of the Roms.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
Seeing as the title is "For those having swype problems" I think that would be pretty explanatory as to why we aren't using swype.

For like 6 months now Swype has not officially supported the flyer on honeycomb.

After a few days with SlideIT I must say it doesn't compare to swype.. but, it is nice to have some skin options.

I find Trace and SlideIT both have more issues than swype.. I can't really say over all what is the "better" keyboard, but I can spend a 1$ to find out if there is a possible better opportunity and would encourage others to at least try the alternative as well. (I still haven't decided whether or not I prefer SlideIT to trace, but I imagine everyone will have personal preference one way or the other)

The other reason I decided to go ahead and pay out is because if swype ever doesn't have support and trace isn't an option... I will have the SlideIT option if I ever have to get another tablet.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
I didn't realize this was a HC issue, as it was not indicated in your OP. I have a modified black/white Swype apk that I loaded on GB. I have no experience with HC yet. My response was to the poster above me. Again, I didn't realize it was a HC issue and there was no indication of what the Swype issues are/were.

That being said, I totally understand going with an alternative. I missed the sale and have no need for this other keyboard at the moment. But perhaps I'll give their trial version a run. Thank you for providing another option.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MattG987:
So far, the lack of Swype, and the GPS lock issues, are the only issues I've encountered with Honeycomb. Everything else has been extremely smooth...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
The trail doesn't work on the flyer for some reason.

I myself am hesitant to try the various modified swype APKs I've seen flying around..

Plus I would like some degree of official support from whatever App I use.. Not adverse to dev support or anything.. but, I've found swype is making continuous improvements in the right direction and would hate to have to be "frozen" on an older version of it.. Even if I like swype more.. at least the .99$ version of SlideIT may still change and get improvements..

Also while the sale is off now.. It will be back up in a week or two I'd almost bet money.. I wouldn't recommend it on phones as it takes up a lot more space than swype.. but, on tablets the space it waste is almost a non-issue.

Sadly for him, you don't owe him anything. You are free to sell your work for any amount of money. You are free to be a slow designer and take plenty of time to do work that would apparently take shorter. It's not your fault he cannot buy your work. It's not your fault the economy is what it is. It's not your fault you're part of a bigger machine, as one of the billion cogwheels that actually needs to work to be able to afford their food and other items. Or just to buy your second multi million dollars yacht. None of anyone's business.

He never had the intention to buy in the first place, otherwise he would just have done so. He did it later on only to prove his point rather than to acknowledge of your work. If you were treated as his equal, he would have had no qualms about putting as much work as you did to buy it. Instead, he started diminishing your work, insulting your efficiency and your talent.

If you were to deliver software for free, then it would be because you wanted to. You're not instantly a better person because you give your work for free, and if someone does this to get a good reputation, then I believe you're not doing it for the good reason. I've gave work for free before. Plenty of time was spent with no remuneration other than a thank you and a smile and I've felt good about that. But on the other side, I've had plenty of remuneration, in the form of monetary compensation, for things I would do naturally without expecting anything in return. All in all, it balances.
