why not?why isn't a bad thing?
[General Questions and Answers] ohiojoe:
Curious To see if anyone else had this issue or can recreate it.

I doubt it is intentional, but it is seemingly a good way to punish anyone who uninstalls the Amazon app store.

I am using a Motorola Photon 4G and I installed the Amazon appstore a few months back, mainly because of their free app per day. Anyway, in that few months I've downloaded quite a few apps from the Amazon appstore.

Tonight I was deciding to do some cleanup and started uninstalling apps left and right. And while I was at it, I decided to uninstall the amazon appstore app since I haven't really used it for a little while.

The first thing that initially surprised me, then I sort of accepted, was that when I went to use an email app I got from amazon, even though it was available in the Google android market as well, it showed me the inbox but forced a popped up that was telling me that I have to have the amazon app store installed before I could use the app. Like I said, at first it did surprise me, and in fact pissed me off, but I sort of made at least temporary peace with it by realizing that Google gets the advantage of having the required "market app" installed to possibly track what apps you use (in exchange for the free of charge market service, of course), So why shouldn't they get the same benefit?

But the second thing I noticed has pretty much pissed me off. Besides that I couldn't use any apps that I downloaded from the amazon app store (or at least that email app I downloaded from them) but I couldn't use my "paid for" apps either. But that still isn't the biggest issue.

The issue I want to know if it can be re- created is that once I uninstalled the amazon app store, my phone screen was now very unresponsive, scrolling, typing, etc. was all very laggy or didn't respond at all until I would touch 2 or 3 times. It was so bad that when my pattern lock came on, it would lag so much I couldn't get back into my phone for at least 10 or 12 tries. Even trying to pull down the notification bar was nearly impossible as the connection would be lost every half second between my finger in the screen thus making the notification bar recede back up.

I didn't immediately recognize it was the removal of the amazon app store application that caused this, so for several hours I was trying to troubleshoot what processes or applications was causing this. Finally, in order to use one of my paid applications, I reluctantly reinstalled the amazon app store application.

And all of that lag and unresponsiveness disappeared entirely immediately upon installation of the amazon app store application.

Now, I doubt that it is intentional, but at the same time I don't put it past Amazon given something else uber-unethical they willfully did a while ago that is unrelated.

Nonetheless, even if it is not intentional, it is a huge deal if the removal of the amazon app store is the direct cause of this happening to many people, not just me. So, I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience, or would like to try to recreate it and report back ( again, simply reinstalling the amazon application store fixed the problem).

Thanks,

Joe

Don't know but I can't even login to Amazon Appstore with my username and password.

Keeps saying it's wrong but it's right. Checked many times.

Weird.

Have tried a bunch of different configs, can't figure it out. Have searched and found almost nothing, nothing that works.

Hi,

Anyone else noticing the volume for notifications (sms, email, whatsapp) & also the ringing seem to be really quiet?

I've maxed out the settings but I still find myself missing txts, emails & even calls sometimes..

Anyway of boosting this?

Cheers

App called 'volume+'

This will boost it for you. Just hope its enough.
[Networking] lucky_luc_be:
Hi all,

a friend of mine has an HTC connected to his laptop.

His laptop is connected to internet via LAN.

When he connects his HTC to his PC via USB he can use a "shared" network connection and so he has internet on his smartphone without using WiFi and without 3G...

Tha feature is linked to the tool he uses to connect his HTC to his PC.

Do you know if it's possible to do that with my SGS2 ?

I installed Kies but I don't see anything concerning that...

Thanks in advance...;)
[Networking] Snakeforhire:
yeah it's called "tethering". Look for an option that says "Wi-fi sharing" (on a stock Sammy ROM).

Watch out though, many providers forbid that (or overcharge heavily for it).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bethanensinger:
I've seen this done on rootz wiki but they stopped updating it past aokp b23 any chance anyone could create a transparent navigation bar background for aokp b32? Now that apex has the option to delete shadows it seems like all that would have to be done is delete the navigation bar background, but I don't know how to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rvrugg90:
yeah i keep seeing themes all around with either transparent or different colored navbar backgrounds. Would definitely love to be able to change this. I have a feeling lots of people would like to have the option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danwguy:
Every time I've tried the transparent nav bar it was horribly ugly. When you click on the nav bar the glow happens and never goes away and leaves ablue glow on it that looks terrible. That's probably why they stopped doing it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bethanensinger:
cant you turn off the glow though?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
Trans nav bar causes horrible ui lag.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jw3:
My phone has been unlocked via HTCDev. I have Hboot 1.02. It is showing 'Unlocked' in purple in the boot screen.

I ran HTC Super Tool V3 options 1 (passed all steps successfully) and 3. I did receive message 'Rooted'.

I have checked if this was correct by typing command 'su' in adb shell. I received message 'permission denied'.

When I try to flash update-cm-7.1.0-Legend-signed.zip from SD card in ROM Manager v5.0.0.6 I get 'An error occurred while attempting to run priviliged commands!'

What do I do wrong?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diabolique1984:
After root try to open titanium backup then fix permission of su.

Then flash the recovery in fast boot mode.then restart in recovery mode with rom manager. Flash a new rom through recovery

That worked! Thanks very much Pepijn!

I used recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-legend.img though boot screen is still showing S-ON.

I managed to flash update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-Legend-signed.zip. It's rooted, didn't have to do anything extra to root my phone.

[HTC Sensation] DevourDarkness:
I don't really understand roms with built in kernels. Say you flash a kernel then flash a rom with a built in kernel. Does the built in kernel replace the previously flashed kernel?

And do all roms have a built in kernel?
[HTC Sensation] MysthMob:
without kernel the ROM can't work. It is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level.

- you can always have one kernel to the same time

- every ROM has a kernel included

- you can flash different kernel after flashing a ROM

See the picture here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(computing)
[HTC Sensation] DevourDarkness:
Ok so a built in kernel always replaces the existing one?
[HTC Sensation] MysthMob:
if you flash a Custom ROM you have the kernel which is included in the custom ROM

And after this you can flash a differnt kernel if you want
[HTC One X] fcng:
Dear HOX and previous Desire Owners,

Since, you held onto your Desire for two years and finally taken the plunge and chose the HOX. What are the differences you had experienced so far in your ownership of the HOX compared to your Desire. Will you keep your HOX for another two years? I'm still holding onto my Desire for another month or two till the bugs and glitches are ironed out till I take the plunge for the HOX.
[HTC One X] leolulz:
I got my One X yesterday, and yes i came from the Desire. Imo it feels like the desire, but larger, and abit thinner :D The only thing to get used to would be the large screen. R.I.P one handed using :(

I will probably use my One X for 2 years like the desire, this ones seems to be a really good one i'd say.
[HTC One X] Scoo88:
Hi guys, I've retired my 2 year old Desire yesterday. I'm very happy with the HOX. When I powered it up and started using it, the feeling was better if I compare the first start of my Desire, and I will definitely use it for a couple of years =)
[HTC One X] fletchem:
I am finding everything slicker and faster, although there are a few minor bugs... which do not detract from the experience. The main thing I am enjoying is downloading all the apps I liked the look of and not worrying about space on the phone. I have downloaded loads and I still have plenty of room. So far I am not regretting my decision in the slightest.
[HTC One X] MancUK:
I agree with what Fletch said, installing all those App's you had to uninstall from the Desire once the memory issue's started is great. Thing's I miss from the Desire, one handed text input, apart from that I couldn't be happier. The OX is an absolute diamond of a phone regardless of the minor software issue's. I got the Desire not long after launch & at the time is was a great phone & pissed over my old iPhone 3g but the step-up in class from the Desire running the HTC Dev Gingerbread to the OX running ICS is a huge leap forward both in terms of software and hardware. The camera destroy's most if not all of what's currently available in a phone, the screen is something to behold, the slim design & lightweight feel makes it feel like you have something from a Sci-Fi movie in your hand. The Gorilla Glass & glossy finish to the sides of the phone just seem so right.

It's even cheaper to buy your accessories, apart from the official HTC branded hardware. I paid £40 for 2 decent cases for my Desire 2 years ago, this week for less than half that price I've ordered 3 cases & an in-car holder!
[HTC One X] five1234:
Hi,

I'm also comming from the Desire and the one thing that is realyy frustrating me is the WIFI connection.

with the "old" desire I had a perfect connection at home and work. now with the one X, it sucks!

many times no connection at all, and if I have a connection, it is really slow :(:(
[HTC One X] fletchem:
Might be an issue with your phone - I have noticed an even faster connection on mine due to the HOX's ability to use the N protocol.
[HTC One X] joll200x:
with regards to the wifi - there are some settings relating to 'maximum performance' and turning off the wifi when the screen is off. Might want to have play with these and see if it helps? I've found the wifi to be pretty standard really.

I came from a Desire and love the HOX. The battery life could be better but when you consider the screen and power behind it that's fairly understandable. Typical that I waited for ages to see what the SGSIII specs were like but I'm happy enough with the HOX to not care too much. A few bugs need fixing but I'll give the OTAs a month or so to come out before rooting.
[HTC One X] Scoo88:
my only problem is with 2 white flashing pixels, but only on grayish surface. i have tried pixel fixer, but it did not help. any advice?
[HTC One X] fcng:
Space...

fletchem,

Yes, the storage space on the Desire is horrible as all of us are always thinking what REALLY good apps need to be installed and passing on the so so quality apps. Glad you don't ahve to care about storage space anymore. :D
[HTC One X] blitzwind87:
for me...its like between a hyundai and a bmw

processor speed, graphic, display, storage, camera.... all at a different level
[HTC One X] huwwatkins:
Did anyone notice a difference in signal strength?
[HTC One X] 99RedB:
For the mobile networks, yes. I'm finding that it's not quite as sensitive as my Desire was. In places where I'd have a no bar signal on my Desire I probably won't have any signal on my HOX.

WiFi however is pretty much the same.
[HTC One X] gl23leung:
i too just upgraded from Desire and enjoy the larger screen, much smoother /faster experience. everything is perfect.

IMO, Desire is still a very good phone, what kills it is lack of true multi-touch. if it has that and using a good optimized rom, i could easily use it for another year.
[HTC One X] Chartist:
I was still happy with my desire apart from the memory and the worn out hard keys and would not have upgraded otherwise. This is more powerful and connects to the hdtv via media link. I can't see it becoming obsolete within 2 or more years.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realkira:
Hi guys i was trying to upgrade to ics and this happen. now i getting the infinity loop start screen :(. any help how to fix it? i was reading some old threads but nothing works.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amulbaby:
Boot looooop

First of all, Check if you are using the proper kernel...

Use the ICS kernel with CWM if you are flashing a custom ics rom or any other kernel recommended by the dev of the rom...

If you are using the proper kernel and still getting bootloop, then do this:

- BOOT INTO RECOVERY.

- WIPE DALVIK CACHE

- WIPE DATA

- WIPE CACHE PARTITION

- AGAIN REBOOT INTO RECOVERY

- NOW INSTALL THE ZIP(ICS) FROM SD CARD AND REBOOT...

It should work fine now...Allow 2-4 mins for the first booting....

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taylerdurden:
I have read that the network problems can be because of the operator doesn´t have the fast dormancy activated in its network.

I think if we can disable the fast dormancy policy in our Galaxy Nexus, the problem can dissapear, but I have tried the code *#9900# that works in SGS2, but it isn´t working in our Galaxy Nexus.

Is there a way to disable fast dormancy in our GNex?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I'm not sure we even have fast dormancy at all on the nexus honestly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
This would be something on your baseband not a toggleable system option.

Try a different baseband region.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 7unk3r:
I would like to know this either because my operator does not have this feature
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 7unk3r:
Bump...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aiinjylls:
Doesn't adding 'ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=0' to build.prop disable fast dormancy?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeremysherriff:
Can anyone confirm? I've just added it now but it will take a while for me to figure out if it has any effect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atifsh:
As far I know, that's a Samsung stock rom thing and doesn't affect Google stock ROM either good or bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeremysherriff:
Agreed, except.. I have had a couple of issues today since enabling that option and rebooting. SMS messages that wouldn't send first time, dropped connections to Google framework, and difficulty with web browsing (DNS issues it seems). Might be issues with the mobile operator though, so I will see how things go for a few days before I form a firm opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeremysherriff:
Ok so i've had this setting in the build.prop for a couple of days and it does seem to have an effect - but for me its not a positive effect. So my conclusion is that it is valid, but my provider supports fast dormancy. I'll do some research into that myself.

Hello, I often flash new roms to my phone. I noticed that my contact pictures have a very poor resolution after a fresh install and the following sync with the google servers.

Because of that I want the save and restore the high resolution pics without google sync. So there is no need to relink all contacts to gallery pics every time.

Can anyone please give me a hint, how to backup it with titanium backup? Or wich file / folder I have to backup? Thanks.

sold my 32GB tablet S for 275,- euro in Holland via a dutch marketplace site.

Before I had an iPad 1 and bought about 100 apps for it, after about 4 month's of Android I still missed a lot of my old apps.

for example: Plants vs Zombie's was not official available in the dutch playstore and as I am from Holland, I'm also not able to buy apps from Amazon, for the iPad I allready bought the same app more then half a year ago...

So after a while I was only doing some web-browsing on the tablet S and was still frustrated about the strange power supply connection.
