Am I not comparing iphone and ipod to android

but I think the hardware hold button on the side is such a good idea?

is there app that does similar thing?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pwnna:
Yeah. It's called the lock screen.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmog:
Yup, i dont understand whats so confusing haha.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamal:
I think they should have one button like that but the lock screen does kind of the same thing...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omega360:
What kind of functionality would the hold button have that differs from the lock screen? They both act the same way, so why put an extra button on an android device that isn't going to be used?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simi123:
you can contact the service provider..........

What different is when i watch youtube and accidentally press the screen or the button the video still plays
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucaoldb:
So, if I have correctly understood your wish, you would like the power button to stop running applications when the screen is locked or at least to stop YouTube and music playing.

Though I am still making the first steps into android's knowledge, I think the only way would be rewriting the single apps in order to tell them to stop working (killed? Frozen?) when the screen is locked. I suppose that's their behavior in ios. On the other side, it would be a no way out remapping the power button so that it could close all running apps or some of them, because a bunch of Google code should be rewritten to modify its standard behavior. Another solution could be remapping a physical key for it to launch a single software (still to be written) whose aim should be to kill o freeze the above said applications.

IMHO it is so simple tapping on the running app and pressing the power button that no developer will ever spend a lot of time to build a solution like the ones I have just spoken about and, though I see it's a matter of taste, I think it would be better accepting android as it is:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pwnna:
A lot of programs already has that. I think MX player has a button that locks out the control
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucaoldb:
Oh yes, it is true. I had never noticed that feature!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valent|n0:
Do MX player lock works on all apps or only when you have mx player running

how about when you browse and watch Flash movie on flash website

I am looking for ways to prevent accidental button press ..

pressing the power button turns off the screen as well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pwnna:
It's not on all the apps. But some do, like MX. Maybe this stuff should go on the android design site
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valent|n0:
you mean each app developer has to keep this in mind?

maybe I can suggest to youtube, skyfire and dolphin browser app to add the feature

other reading app .. where you can spend a long time on one single page.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pwnna:
I think YouTube kindaa has this. Where I think if you don't see the controls any more, you have to tap the screen once to activate the controls before you can use them.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthraxcp:
I have a bell Galaxy S2. Today I rooted it and after hours of confusion, I finally managed to install resurrection remix 4.04 ICS on my phone.

So far I've run into tons of issues:

1) No GPS

2) No wifi (stuck on 'obtaining IP address, unlikely that this is my network's fault)

3) No software buttons, so I can't multitask (have to use task killer to kill unused apps right now)

4) Rom Control crashes everytime I go into the Navigation bar page

The phone in it's current state is useable, but I will go back to stock settings if I can't fix these problems. Maybe there is a better ROM out there? Though I heard resurrection remix is the best one. Also, could it be that I installed the wrong kernel? The one I installed is:

CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5

Can somebody help me out? Any tips would be appreciated.

EDIT: I just realized that USB connectivity (file transfer) doesn't work either - not even in clockwork menu!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mv101:
Sounds like you might have flashed the wrong kernel for your phone.

did you first check what was the original kernel on your phone? acutally, run me through your root process so i can figure where you went wrong, because the Resurrection remix rom is just about perfect
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthraxcp:
I know it was KG2 kernel originally. Don't remember the other numbers.

I'm now on a different kernel because when I used KG2, the phone wouldn't work at all (the buttons were screwy).

The process went something like this:

1. Rooted KG2 kernel installed

>Phone still works like before, but rooted

2. Put Res remix rom on my phone's storage

3. Go into clockwork recovery

4. Flash/Recovery

Format /system

Wipe Cache

5. Install ROM from SD card - twice (since the video I was watching told me to do it twice)

>Phone turns on but the buttons don't work so I can't navigate menus

6. Install CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5

>Buttons sort of work now but lots of problems

>All of my old files/music are still on the phone despite all that format/recovery stuff. Is that normal?

Now when I try to install KG2 kernel phone doesn't even turn on. If it helps, the phone currently tells me the baseband is I9100MUGKG2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mv101:
k, yep you missed the gapps install. did you make a backup in CMW recovery before you flashed remix?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthraxcp:
*lowers head in shame*

Nope. But if I understand correctly gapps is just the google stuff (maps, gmail, etc) but that all works fine for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
whats wrong with you brother? installing CF-root on an AOKP rom???? CF-root is matched with the Kernel not with the Baseband.

Yourself dont know what is being flased on what.....did you make sure of your model before flashing there are many S2s I9100 /I9100G / I9100M / 9100T many more...

please read all the instrction first before attempting anything my friend...There is no substitute for reading and learning for comprehension .it is not like that any thing can be applied on anything.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mv101:
ooh you messed up real good! think you need to flash the insecure kg2 kernel through odin again
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthraxcp:
It's the I9100M (bell) and the Kernel before I started was KG2. I already mentioned this.

@kilometers4 that's the exact kernel I tried the first time (from that tutorial) but it didn't work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
yes it was before, but when you flashed Reserection Remix you got Cyanogenmod Kernel...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthraxcp:
Ok, some good news.

I installed the CF-ROOT KG2 kernel.

I went into recovery, formatted/wiped everything that needs to be done. (Then USB connectivity began to work!) so I put a 2.3 Cyanogen Mod on there and now everything seems to work (USB, WIFI) except for the home button. I still can't exit out of applications.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
I dont understand what are you doing, it is your phone and up to you...do any experiments you want...

but dont ask for support when you get into deep treble with your stupidity doing without reading and knowing.

CF-root will not work with AOKP roms.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthraxcp:
Yes but I can't find any other rooted kernels out there that will work for my phone. I've googled it but all the GS2 rood/mod tutorials I've seen use CF-Root.

If you can let me know what kernel or rom to install that would be great. I'm not going to touch my phone until I figure out what to do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Why not start with a working phone + a nandroid backup before you start playing with roms .

Stock rom + CWM and root kernel = Nandroid backup .

If CM does not work then read the CM thread faqs and instructions .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
first of all get into reserection remix thread and ask whether this ROM supported for I9100M or not, if yes ask somebody can provide CWM flashable CM9 kernel (if it is the original kernel of your rom) then flash from CWM and try..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
It does work with 9100M.. I have the same phone and am running v1.4 flawlessly

I just downloaded goomanager and it is a great program, with goomanager you can get ron updates (nightlies, cherry, ect)

download

,

backup

,

delete cash

,and

flash

all in one.

It works great with TWRP 2.1, after checking the right boxes in goomanager, it rebooted into TWRP and did all the above. It didn't take very long either then just reboot system and I was done.

Thankyou for the thorough testing, now what about vmheap?
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
I dont intend on testing it, it's default size never changes for any device, regardless of ram size. I assume goog knows what they're doing in respect to that, as manus can and do add in their own optimizations into their roms, and they still leave those values alone more or less.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] GoTZeus:
I know that this question was probably posted before, but I figured I would post it again because people's opinions change over time.

I have been running cm7.2 for a while now and was wondering what perks some sense roms have over cm7.2 if any at all and if it would be worth it to switch to a sense rom?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
Honestly, try SkyRadier on teambamf.net and just see for yourself. It's hard to talk about all of them.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FC127:
The ONLY reason I would go back to a sense rom is for the camera.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mushypizza:
Sense is heavier so AOSP roms will have better battery life. Sense has its widgets and camera. I don't know if it's better for CM7. 2 but I had multitouch issues with CM and MIUI and aerovan v. 7 kernel so that's the reason I switched. You should try it and see if you like it or not. Personally, I love MIUI but I can't live with the multitouch issues so I changed to SkyRaider Zeus

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] murat408:
Sense 4.0 with GSM

Do you know a Sense 4.0 ROM for GSM?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 420fan:
I go back and forth between sense and CM7.2 Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Sense bluetooth works WAY better for me, but I like the customization of CM7 and the quickness.

Magnolia and Skyraider Zues have been my favorite sense roms and gotta give it up for Condemned's CM7 rom.

Your mileage may vary of course..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] murat408:
I prefer Sense to CM7 and CM9 too.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
Not until HTC releases source for ICS.

[HTC EVO 3D] Tyrannik:
Hi.

I recently got a refurbished Evo 3D after my old one's digitizer broke. About 2 days afterwards, I was being stupid and accidentally dropped my phone. The back popped off and the battery came out. Now it shows a dim red light whenever it should be charging (via usb cable into my computer) and refuses to even turn on. However, whenever I plug it in, it makes the sound that windows recognizes that a USB device is plugged in. Is this a sign of hope that I can fix my phone? Please give me any suggestions.

Things I have tried:

-Holding power down (with the volume buttons and camera button etc.)

-Trying to use the command: adb reboot bootloader

-Taking out batter and using a different one from another phone.

-Charging the original battery to full using the spare Evo 3D and then attempting the above.

Before I dropped it I did root the phone and stupidly attempted to install the wrong ROM (used CDMA instead of the other one, can't remember the name off the top of my head, but it's the one used in Rogers phones), but it didn't brick the phone or anything.

One more thing to note is that right after I dropped it and tried to boot it up it made it to the white HTC screen, then turned off.

Hopefully this is enough information, and thanks in advance for any help.
[HTC EVO 3D] troublein420:
Check out the thread in the dev section about downgrading hboot 1.5 at some point in it, you purposefully brick it to a faint red light. Try to follow instructions from there.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tyrannik:
Any other suggestions? I don't have a linux machine, and currently my ISP is not exactly cooperating with my internet connection, so it's extremely slow atm, and as a result will probably take too long to download.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Not to just repeat what others have said, but the dim red light truly sounds like what happens when the phone is bricked. If it is, you may be able to save it by following that thread when your ISP cooperates. It is strange though that dropping it would cause it to brick.
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
If he is on Rogers, he has a GSM phone & can't use the Hboot 1.50 cdma downgrade thread. There are 2 stickied downgrade threads in the Gsm section.

[HTC EVO 3D] cburk01:
Here's what I would try

Here's what I would try:

1. Take battery out of phone and make sure, 100% sure, the phone is off.

2. Once the phone is 100% powered down pop the battery back in.

3. Now what I would do is hold down power + volume up until the phone comes to HBOOT.

4. If HBOOT doesn't come up, idk. If you have a working nandroid, I would restore from it. If you don't, just select fast boot, then select the option to start up normally (which I forget what it is called...).
