Can anyone recommend any alternative sites WITH decent android one touch uploading apps?

I am looking for alternatives because I don't want to sign up for ANOTHER email address, which you have to have yahoo for flickr...

You guys were plenty helpful in tracking down some very good photo apps, so how about the next stage?

Any ideas? What do you use?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Picasa? There's a few apps that can upload to the google picasa besides the stock gallery. And pretty decent space for free. You can pay for additional space if needed.
[HTC Sensation] stonew5082:
google plus uploads all your pics automatically, and there's NO storage limit. Doesn't get much better than that...
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Box.com offers a free file hosting service, and when you login from your Android phone until 3/23, you get 50GB lifetime storage for free. It's pretty much like DropBox, but there's no time limit on the storage. I just signed up. It's pretty sweet.
[HTC Sensation] Ian_79a:
Photobucket, Theres also an app in the market place. and it will automaticly upload photos as you take them :cool:
[HTC Sensation] Conj:
I would also say Photobucket.

Great app, give it a try.
[HTC Sensation] tarryl:
h**p://alternativeto.net/software/flickr/
[HTC Sensation] 8thsiner:
I went with box in the end and I am happy with it, I tried a few others first, and as nice as some of them are like picassa, they just don't work as simply as I wanted, and or didn't work.

Box still ahs issues, like I can only upload one file at a time via box app, but I can upload one or as many, tested with 130 files, as I seem to want, and it accepts more than just pics, so handy for backing up my favourite films too.

Thanks for the great link. THANKED

Sorry to spoil the fun but that's absolute rubbish. I can understand that they couldn't get the pattern and therefore unlock the phone, but I know from personal experience that computer forensics experts do not even need the device turned on to get access to every byte of data on there.

what if the phone is encrypted?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] AddisonMorrow:
You can now Succesfully Update your Vivid, (AT&T-Confirmed) to 4.0.3 and Sense 3.6!

Step 1: Make Sure Phone is Charged to at least 50%

Step 2: Connect to Wi-Fi (this is the only way it worked for me!)

Step 3: Go to your dialer and enter *#*#682#*#*

Step 4: Pull down notification bar and select download now.

Step 5: ENJOY ANDROID ICS!!!!!

Let me know if it worked!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:

Any build difference between the leaked and the new.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ki11bert:
I was on the vj ROM. I managed to successfully upgrade but I had to do a few steps first.

Factory reset

Wipe sdcard

Downloaded original att gb Rom image, placed on sdcard, loaded with fastboot

Relocked bootloader

Input *#*#682#*#*

Shazaam
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ahnkou:
Yours wasn't working until you did this?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] davezaff:
If running .52 leaked version will renaming the ota update.zip and flashing through stock recovery work?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] samsat:
I did the whole *#*#682#*#* thing and it all worked fine first downloading the update and then asking me if I want to install.

Only problem is that after the install I still have the original Android 2.3.4 on the phone.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] AddisonMorrow:
Yes I'm sorry to those who I didn't give credit to, I was just trying to get the info out there before AT&T took it of the OTA download server.. But now thanks to @galfert you can download it strait from his fileswap link
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] qwerty160:
so once i download this is it just a flashable zip or what?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeroRilix:
How will this affect users who installed 3.26.502.52? Since the version number is changed, would I be able to install with no problems? I'm stock, locked, and unrooted and installed PGs RUU while it was still posted. If it would install with no problems, would I still get it pushed to me if I waited the rollout to "officially" begin?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] an4564:
how did u relock the bootloader?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tykazowsky:
its not working for me either. i am 100% stock, unrooted

as soon as i type the final * in the sequence *#*#682#*#* it disappears and there is nothing in the notification bar... i dont have a chance to hit call or anything... am i doing it wrong?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] csticky:
Anyone try it the manual way?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slimslim:
I was stock unrooted also, and it supposed to disappear after you hit the last *, I guess you'll have to wait. I was on wifi, btw, dialed and about 20-30 secs later got the notifocation. I thought it didn't go through at first, cause is no confirmation or anything. The download was painfully slow, lasted about 40 min, so I guess you should try a little later, maybe the att's servers are not too cluttered.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tykazowsky:
yeah.. still nothing. I've tried plugged in as well... Still no sign
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeroRilix:
Anyone?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pauley:
Here we go again! *facepalm* If you don't know what you're doing STOP! then research other similar posts. You cannot just flash that zip file... if you had read anything, it was to only help out the devs who can create a flashable zip. The only ones who can/should accept the OTA are those who are on stock unrooted gingerbread, anyone else is just looking for trouble. If you are anything but stock/unrooted, wait for a dev to tell you what to do next. ICS isn't going anywhere, slow down before causing irreparable damage to your phone.

How did you do that

Hey. I am on that ROM tight now. Is there any way you could give me a detailed description of what you did? Sorry, i'm kinda a noob at this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] texonex:
FYI.......

The difference between 502.52 and 502.56 is very minor. If you still want to update your device, go here:

http://blog.androidninjas.com/2012/03/15/3-26-502-56-ota-leaked-today/

I have 502.52 version of the ROM and I am not going to update until ATT releases the final, automatic update.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lebmb:
which att gb rom image did u download or i should say from where? i haven't been able to flash that att gb ruu since i flashed the ics ruu when it came out, let me know. thanks
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeroRilix:
Thanks! That's exactly what I was gonna do. Just wanted to be sure that since the final will be a different version number, that we would still be able to receive the final. I'm fine with this version until it is 100% "officially" rolling out.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lyonmaster:
Go to thecube's thread and follow that guide to get back to GB. That is what i did to get back to stock. Then when when i entered *#*#682#*#* it started to download it to my phone and it will store it in the Downloads folder.

I've been testing different things this afternoon. First i went ahead and installed the update and played with that for a bit. Then i had an idea, i went back to GB again, (follow thecube's guide) and got it to download again. This time I chose update later and removed the OTA_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_Cingular_US_3.26.502.56-1.63.502.4_release_246743w19gbak1kr9c1nig.zip file and replaced it with Pirateghost's VIVID_ICS_OTA_ROOTED_CWM.zip file and renamed it to the stock original file. When i went back and hit update it accepted the file and installed it.

i just wanted to see if it would take that file, i just went back to GB again a little while ago to see if it would revert and it did without any issues. So I followed thecube's instructions on PG's thread and reloaded the first .54 ICS. Now i'm downloading PG's files from AndroidNinjas and i'm going to try going from 3.26.502.54 to 3.26.502.56

As you can see i like to play with things, i'll let you all know what the result is, and post how i did it in laymen terms when i get a chance.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kent Melton:
The last time that I flashed "This is a PH39IMG.zip that you flash via HBOOT to restore your phone to stock unrooted Gingerbread shipping ROM. This will also remove Clockwork Recovery" it made my phone get stuck at the HTC bootup screen. Did you have to flash some kind of kernel before that?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lebmb:
lol that's cool

didn't think it would work

i used his guide btw, and it flashes back the gb rom but not the radio, im stuck with the one from the ics ruu, so when im on a gb rom stock or otherwise it won't connect to any network :(

which radio are you on ? when i flash the att gb ruu i get a bootloader version error

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

it booted fine for me, but because of the different radios i can't connect to att, therefore i can't even download the update.

im gona try it again now just for the heck of it

was ur bootloader relocked or unlocked when you did it?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] a40dayflud818:
Kent,

I was on that ROM too. There was already a thread going before this one popped up but I did a step-by-step of what I did and it seems to have worked for me. Check out the other thread that has like 03/03 in the title. I just posted there so it should still be close to the top.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kent Melton:
"I wanted to let you know I think I have made some pretty big progress. Here's what I've done so far...

1. I went ahead and flashed the Stock ROM that's in the Dev Section.

2. Booted the phone up and went through the initial set up process.

3. Relocked the bootloader.

4. Booted back into the phone and did the code.

5. A box popped up that said I could monitor my download in the notification bar.

6. When it was done, I went ahead and chose install now.

It's now going through the install process. No idea on how long this will take. Hope this helps you out though."

Are these the steps that you took? That sounds fairly straight forward. Ill try this tomorrow and tell you if it worked. Thank You!!!!!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] a40dayflud818:
Yes. That's it. If you need further help I can elaborate. :-)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lebmb:
well i figured out how to get my phone to connect back to the network, strange enough when i toggle wifi on/off it works.

but i tried the software update from the stock gb rom and it says there's no updates, i tried the code in OP and i get nothing in the notifications.

Thank you!! I returned to stock through re locking the bootloader and then using the stock RUU to go back. Now, when Put in those things into the dial-er, and nothing happened. I keep trying to do it and nothing is happening. I have the wifi on and everything and still nothing. Should I just keep trying?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] doktor buknasty:
Is there any reason why you want the OTA that bad?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] a40dayflud818:
Well according to others, the code seems to be turned off. I can only say just to sit tight. Also pirate's ICS seems to be the exact same as this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Splitz300:
Ugh, this is frustrating. I missed this by a day!

I'm patiently waiting for ICS as hopefully part of the update is better battery life.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DUTCH Van Atlanta:

Runs great. Anyone with this update have the small issue where the gmail refresh icon stays in the notification bar even when it's not refreshing?

Also I just rebooted and noticed the new beats audio splash screen, cool, but after that I got a splash screen saying "Android is Upgrading, optimizing application 1 of 30". Anyone else notice this?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ransack:
I didn't have the issue with the gmail icon, but the optimizing apps thing happens to everyone that updates with the OTA or the leaked RUU
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
I had this with the ATT OTA, ATT rooted zip, ATT RUU and the Telstra rooted zip. I think something is just screwed up in general.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slimslim:
It goes away after refreshing. I'm on pushed through dialing ota. I do have the optimization thing I think It's an ics thing in general, but mine is a lot longer lol ~192 apps.

Edit: also the duplicate sms went away.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wehtiko:
Hi,

I've been experiencing a heavy battery drain since last Saturday (March 10) on Gingerbread. I had a battery life of over a day and then suddenly to about 6 hours the next day. I've tried the phone with another battery and get the same battery life out of it.

Here is the Battery use:

Cell standby: 27% Time On 6h 10m

Display: 25% Time On 11m

Android OS: 18% CPU Total 4m

Phone Idle: 11% Time On 5h 57m

Email: 9% CPU 24s Keep Awake 7m

Android System: 4% CPU Total 16s CPU Foreground 16s Keep Awake 46s

Anyone has an idea what could be the cause? I've noticed the Market changed to Play Store but I don't remember having other updates.

This is the info about my phone:

Nexus S

Android 2.3.6

Baseband I9020AUCKF1

Kernel 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef android-build@apa28 #1

Build # GRK39F

Network Rogers

Signal Strength -85 dBm 15 asu

Mobile Network Type HSDPA

Tell me if you need more info...

Thanks in advance,

Denis.

Sometimes Batteries last longer if they're charged when almost empty. Try to use it until 5-10% and then recharge it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oogway13:
You might want to install CPUSpy and BetterBatteryStats to check whats eating you battery.

Have you checked if there is any app in the background that might be consuming your battery (whatsapp, facebook, twitter, etc). Also, maybe some services, wireless, nfc, etc?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wehtiko:
I've installed BetterBatteryStats and the phone is Awake 80.3% of the time. If I look at the Raw Kernel Lock, modem_ip_rx is taking 56.3%.

I'm really suspecting the last update of the Market to Google Play. In Net Counter, I have 100 MB downloaded in the last 2 days and my phone has been on my desk most part of the day.

I will kill the process when right after I boot tomorrow and see what happens.

I'll post the results.

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wehtiko:
Just posting my results.

When I unplugged my phone from the charger this morning, I force closed Play Store (the new market app) and 8 hours later my battery has 70% left. Yesterday I had only about 6 hours of battery life. Hope Google will fix this!

Thanks for your help, BetterBatteryStats helped me find the culprit.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oogway13:
Hmm weird that Google Play is draining on your battery....could it be an issue on GB? I am currently on ICS and I haven't experienced this issue.

Good thing it's working fine now!

We ran into the same issue on two other phones at our office. Another Nexus S running Gingerbread and a Samsung (don't know the model) but it was running Froyo. The version of Google Play is 3.4.7

Yesterday, I found Google Play Store version 3.5.15. I've installed it and tested it today. I didn't experience any battery drain with that version. I can't post any links since I don't have enough posts on xda but you can google "download google play store 3.5.15 androidspin" and you'll find the same link I used.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTinRam:
Am going to try the Play Store trick. I need to get to the bottom of this fast battery drain. I recommended this phone to somebody and since the bat only lasts 6-8 hours with very light usage, I look kind of silly.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTinRam:
I downloaded BetterBatteryStats but to be honest, I don't know what to make of it. Any tips what to look for? How did you determine it was Google Play?

When you went to settings -> apps, did you see Google Play listed as running? Our was it something like "Google Services"?

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTinRam:
Well the OTA update to ICS has come down and it appears to have fixed the battery drain issue. Looks great on the phone too!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diazdar:
Whenever you open Google Maps for the first time after rebooting it works, but once closed it turns white. I've read somewhere on this forum that rebooting is the only way to fix it but I found an easier way. Press and hold the home button and then a list of windows will show. From there, press and hold the google maps window and remove it from the list. Re open google maps and it should work fine.

By the way I've extensively tested all ICS roms and I truly believe AOKP ROM has exceeded all expectations. It is definitely the most stable and definitely the fasted and smoothest rom available NOW. (3/15/12). Thanks for all your hard work. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bluenote73:
press home, to go to launcher.

press home to go back to google maps.

fixed white screen for me without relaunching.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Yep.

All that needs to be done is going back to home screen, which leaves maps running in the background, then hit the icon again to bring it back up. Sort of like minimizing a window on your computer then restoring it.
