Long press the notification bar and drag left or right to change brightness.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnus:
Holding down on the notification bar and swiping for brightness will only work if you don't have auto brightness enabled. You can also take a screenshot by pressing Home and Power at the same time. I find that easier than karate chopping my phone. :p

This is normally presented to people when they set up their phones, but just in case someone skipped it, if you hold down the side button on the S-pen and double tap the screen, it opens up an s-memo over whatever app you're in so you can jot a quick note. There is also an option for this during phone calls.

EDIT: Here's a few other tricks that I haven't tested personally, but have heard from various sources:

1. If you are playing music and place your palm over the display, it quickly mutes the music.

2. While playing a video, tapping the power button will lock the display so it won't respond to touches. Pressing again will disable.

3. If you have motion activation enabled in your settings, when the phone rings you can flip it over to silence the ringtone.

4. Swiping a contact's name to the left in your contact list will quick-create a new message to them. Swiping to the right will call them.

Heres another, if you swype your fist accrpss the screen it takes a screenshot

Edit:nvm
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Wish this worked without CheeseWhiz, odd it matters as the notification bar is framework, not launcher, but I couldn't make it work. Then again, I rarely managed to make the same function work in Cyanogen 7 either..

EDIT: Oops, yeah I'm an idiot, I had Automatic on, it works fine regardless of launcher. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
#2 is a no go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] waltah!:
You can also just press the power button along with the home button for screenshot if you don't feel like karate chopping your screen.

You could try to copy all the apps you've installed from /data/apps

I don't understand ANYTHING about androids but i followed a video tutorial on how to root it and it worked. So now, i have a 4.0.1 yajuux build Gnex (gsm) that is rooted and i got ClockWork Recovery on it with rom manager. I want to get the Apex 1.0.2 Rom on my phone except it says i need a XXKK6 radio. How do i flash that radio? also, I want the franco kernel on it after so how would i flash that? Please explain it like you would explain to a 10 year old so that I fully understand the process.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Buy a phone in the XDA phone list, check its forum sections (General, Q&A and Development) for some kind of sticky guides, follow the guides.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pick_A_Name:
First you need to go to the section for your phone. Start by read the stickies and any pertinent information on radios, kernels, and ROMs. Then find the rom, kernel, or radio you want and read it. Start with the OP and then keep reading. Whatever questions you may have will probably have already been answered. If not, then is the time to ask questions in the appropriate Q& A thread. Good luck and enjoy your phone!

Thanks to Gunnermike for the all the help and server space!

Whats themed?

SystemUI.apk - ForeverSupra [Thanks to Gunner for the new toggles.]

Settings.apk - Gunnermike

Contacts.apk - Gunnermike

MMS.apk - Gunnermike [Removed the background.]

Simply boot into recovery and flash the zip, it automatically mounts your system and wipes dalvik cache.

[Don't forget about the thanks button.] Download theme:

gunnermike53.com/Themers/foreversupra/CoreDroid_Eclipse_2.2.zip

Stock font:

Credits go to Sergio76 for being the original theme designer (CoreDroid Rom for the Inspire 4G) we just ported his theme.​
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:

How to get stock font? I flashed both .zip files and I didn't get stock font.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
Thanks for pointing that out, its fixed now.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] coorsbear:
This is my favorite theme. I didn't even update to 2.2 till this came out. Great job
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
Thanks for the fix. Would you mind clarifying what procedure to take to get stock font? Are you supposed to flash both files (In that case, I understand the order to flash them) or only the stockfont.zip?

I really like this theme because it's based in blacks and blues, yet utilizes colors to help make different functions more distinguishable and recognizable. I think this makes it both very appealing to the eye, and very functional. I was using it on my Droid Charge a while back. Thanks so much for your hardwork.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
Flash the stock font in recovery over any theme. That's it :). Im glad you like it! Thanks for the support.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] needshelp101:
Google talk is black on black text :( I use it a lot otherwise it wouldn't be an issue. Any way to fix it? Otherwise great theme!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
Google talk works fine for me. Did you apply this theme over another theme? That might be your problem. Try to uninstall Google talk and reinstall it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] needshelp101:
I just remembered I installed it over titanium. Titanium was the black on black. I cleared cache and dalvik. I thought that would be good. I guess it carried over. I'll reinstall eclipse 2.2. And try and flash again. Thanks :)

Edit: Yup that did the trick, thanks again. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
No problem :).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zeroxia:
why use such horrible font...

A question:

I use bootstrap to get into the CWM recovery, the version of CWM it displays is "v4.0.1.5", and the theme .zip package installs without problem, but for the stock font, it just says failed.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
Because thats how I like my theme? Thats weird, it flashes fine with Safetrap.

Edit: I have it working for Bootstrap now! Enjoy using the ugly stock font ;).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zeroxia:
Many thanks, i copied the stock fonts to the device via "adb shell", :D

btw, i found that after safestrap installation, "adb devices" will always show the device as "offline", i tried reinstall driver, reboot computer, restart phone, none worked.

safestrap is better than bootstrap, but except this fatal shortcoming......

i'm wondering if this is just my specific issue....

(dahh. typing on the 4.3 inch touch screen is killing me, too many typos to fix.)

How did you get it working in bootstrap? Did you change the file in the OP, or do I need to do something different when flashing in bootstrap?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
I changed the binary script, is it not working? It should be working on both recovery's. You dont have to do anything different, just flash the file.

Stupid Questions and problems

Hi everyone,

Huge fan of this theme but I noticed maybe a slight issue. When I try to save my speed dial it takes me right back to the home screen without saving the contact.

And also a few newbie questions. On the notification bar what does the icon between the GPS and Brightness do? Also the icon of the internet browser between the brightness and phone rotation.

Thanks in Advance,

-Ethan
[Motorola Droid Bionic] CamoCustom:
I have this problem, but not while using this theme, I think that is an issue with eclipse....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ForeverSupra:
I highly doubt its the theme causing the issue... The icon you are talking about is the sound icon. It puts your phone in vibrate (then the icon changes) push it again and you have sound.

Thanks for the support :).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
Found this out the hard way today. The browser icon between the brightness and phone rotation is the DATA. Somehow mine got turned off (I have pudgy fingers lol) I was like WTF how did I lose my 4g XD

I think for the past hour or so i've wasted my time trying to create a playlist using Kies.

after trying to sync and playing around with kies, i realized its a crappy program.

so i would like to know how (if possible), if i can EXPORT my kies playlist to any other program (windows media player, itunes, doubletwist...anything!)

i've looked everywhere and all i find is importing other apps playlists to kies...but nothing for the other way around.

the reason im doing this is because whenever it sync my library, it doesnt sync playlists in that library, i have to either choose sync playlist or entire library without playlist...

and i would like to have my entire library as well as my playlist

I am on GDX v026. In fact, on all versions of GDX i have used, auto brightness has never worked as it should.

If you look in Cyanogen brightness settings you'll find all sorts of autobrightness parameters that you can change and edit.

If you hop onto Gingercruzt you can see how well autobrightness should work.

You'll see then that GDX autobrightness does not work well at all - it is probably the only flaw in an otherwise fantastic rom.
