the term here is "freezing" the app

just freeze using titanium back pro
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Rikxzdjz:
if you replace the TouchWizLauncher.apk to GoLauncher.apk it's just the same...

when you press the Task Manager then they can see Go Launcher in Active application section, not like TouchWiz ... it doesn't show you to the active application...

Better install it normally ...

hope you understand what i mean & sorry broken english coz i'm Indonesian... :D:D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Rikxzdjz:
if you can hide the Go Launcher from the Task Manager (Active application tab) it would be nice...
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
thats impossible (lol)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Rikxzdjz:
hahaha...
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] PacketJ:
As long as the phone is rooted, then yes
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Rikxzdjz:
What do you mean by yes ? we can hide it while we open Task Manager ( Active application tab ) ?? :confused::eek:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
Well i cant freeze the launcher..
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
Well my phone is rooted..
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
it doesn't matter if your launcher is stock or not. the app will be loaded in ram as 'active app'. if you don't use it for a while it will dissapear automaticly and stored in ram's cache. don't freeze you twlauncher if you doesn't have other launcher in /system/app. your rom may not work if you wipe your /data.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] leodasal2:
just see to it that when you freeze the default launcher,

you don't forget to enable your secondary launcher first
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Rikxzdjz:
yeah it's true...:)

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
And to hide it on ongoing tasks or active apps ;)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
Bumpss i want to hide the launcher ex on active apps
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
Why on chobits they removed touch wiz launcher??????????????????? so can i remove it and change to go launcher ex???????
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Raol Emostar:
Yes you can! Just convert Go Launcher to system app and uninstall stock launcher using TB.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
WOW!! cant i use link 2 sd! it has covert to system app! and when go launcher is now my default launcher, the active aplication is not showing go launcher ex anymore or what?!!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
Hey can i use link2sd to convert it to system app ?!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Rikxzdjz:
If we uninstall the TWLauncher then pushing the Go Launcher EX to the system/app does it show Go Launcher EX is running in Task Manager ?

I hope it's not
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] renr29:
Yes it shows -_______-

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rsalib:
I have way too many songs to put on my internal sdcard. After any of the ics roms, google play music has stopped seeing my music on my external sdcard.

Does anyone know how to get them to be seen, besides using another music player?

Is this an ICS bug?

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] djxcee:
No it should see it. Try clearing the cache.

Also verify that Android can see your sdcard.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] icenight89:
After initial flash and boot, did u leave the phone and let it sit for awhile, ~10 min? This is when the ics media scanner indexes audio files, on first boot. If u didn't give it a chance, and just started using it, it probably never completed. Try again with tweaked instructions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eric-1987:
Just upload your music it's easier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jmacdonald19:
Had same problem, never could get it to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Android The Greek:
Agreed after you flash ics it could take over 30 minutes foe the phone to read your micro sd. If your gallery still says media scanning reflash ics and then let it rest for 30 minutes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jmacdonald19:

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralsmooth:
I was wondering if there is a simple trick to installing the SEMC-Gallery3D.apk on a non Sony android device. I copied the .APK file and got the application not installed screen. I then tried to change a few different values in the build.prop, and was still un-successful. Just curious to know if anyone knows a trick to getting this to install.

Already tried copying the APK to the system/app folder and changing the permissions accordingly as well with no luck as well.

Any suggestions people? I would really like to have the SEMC 3D Gallery on my tablet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ephemeros:
I apologize if this has already been addressed elsewhere; I poked around and didn't really find an answer.

So, I have an AT&T Galaxy Note that I have flashed to the latest version of Saurom. I'm very happy with it, except for one thing (which would be minor except that I came from an iPhone and was spoiled): visual voicemail. On AT&T apparently the only app that really works is their app, AT&T Messages. I tried YouMail and it hosed my VM and I had to call AT&T 611 and get it reset. Afterwards I installed AT&T Messages on my rooted ICS build and attempted to get it going.

It doesn't work. The registration of the phone number appears to work fine, but I never receive the promised text message for activation and the app apparently won't work until that happens. I've cleared the app's data, I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and nothing seems to help. To be honest I don't really WANT to use AT&T's app, but it seems I don't have much of a choice. Has anyone else experienced this? HELP?!?

[Nook Touch General] bobcdy:
I'd like to change the wallpaper on the root u-tube home screen, but I don't see how one can access the internal folders. I'd like to be use adb push but I don't know the path for the 'Picture', or 'Wallpaper gallery Home' that are possible locations for adding the images.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
You do mean the desktop wallpaper?

I'm boring. I just changed the default wallpaper to solid white.

In /system/framework/framework-res.apk

Replace /res/drawable-mdpi/default_wallpaper.png

To answer your original question: I don't know.
[Nook Touch General] bobcdy:
Thanks for the information; however being a complete beginner that does help me get a little bit closer to what I'd like to do but there is still much that I don't really understand. How do I access that location? And should I add my new image to the subfolder with a totally differently name, or should I rename the my image to that of the default.png and replace the old image?

If I adb push to the nook my image renamed to match the old wallpaper image, will that work?
[Nook Touch General] bobcdy:
still trying to replace home image in rooted Nook ST

I have a question for someone who knows more than I about android systems. Thanks to Thank Meter 78 who pointed out the file I need to change in order to replace the home image is in

/system/framework/framework-res.apk

and that I need to replace in that apk

/res/drawable-mdpi/default_wallpaper.png

Will the following procedure work properly without screwing up my newly rooted Nook?

Using Root Explorer I copied the 'framework-res.apk', and saved it to my Nook sd card. Then copied that apk file to my windows xp computer and changed the extension to 'zip' and unzipped it. The png file thus is available for replacement by another image of identical size and name.

Will it be correct for me to rename the modified .zip extenson file containing a new default_wallpaper.png file back to its original .apk extension, copy/paste it to the sd card, insert the sd card into the Nook, and the using Root Explorer to copy the apk file and paste it back to the drawable-mdpi folder where it will replace the nook apk (being sure that I change the r/o to r/w permission for the folder, and change it back after the replacement)?

Could there be adverse effects of the replacement?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
My friends all call me Renate... :rolleyes:

Yes, that procedure works, correcting for your typo.

Unzip, replace PNG, zip, copy back to /system/framework/framework-res.apk

You don't need to set it back to r/o. It's better/easier to just reboot, preferably with ADB.

You should always backup at reasonable intervals and before major changes.

Heck, I've bricked my Nook a dozen times.
[Nook Touch General] bobcdy:
Thanks Renate!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Ok, the actual answer is:

The gallery uses the mediastore images database.

The crawler can't find anything even if it's right under its nose.

The databases are stored in /data/data/com.android.providers.media/databases

There's internal.db and another db for each unique SD card inserted.

The crawler is equally lame finding MP3's also.

That's why both Music and Gallery say "no media".
[Nook Touch General] ajislav:
1) I thought the original question was about u-tube (I guess "Youtube" ;-))

2) ad gallery - I was always wondering how to make it see the JPGs I had as screensavers... Would you have any ideas how to fix this (i.e. make the crawler work)? Or maybe the other way round, how often is the crawler running? Would battery be improved if it was turned off/killed?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
The Media Scanner service is what scans.

Normally it is activated on insertion of an SD card.

It does not run continuously.

It ignores directories with file in it called ".nomedia"

The MediaScannerConnection can be used to request scanning of a single file.

Level 8 API (we're 7) can request scanning of multiple files.

It seems to turn its nose up at files and not put them in its database.
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
Are you asking about having your own pics as screensavers?

I did that by connecting my NST to the PC, and creating a folder (one word name) under screensavers/ and copying the pics into that folder. It then shows up in the screensavers menu, and you can select it. The location from within the nook is /media/screensavers

--
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
The emulator's MediaScanner works fine, the Nook's appears broken.

You can manually enter images into the MediaStore:

(This requires sqlite3 installed or pull the database and do it on your desktop.)

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.media/databases/internal.db
insert into images (_data, mime_type) values('/media/myphoto.png', 'image/png');
.q

Call up Gallery.

You will see a blank thumbnail because one has not been generated yet.

Click on that.
[Nook Touch General] jun127:
Isn't their any way to repair the nooks MediaScanner? like, re-install it, clear the app data, copy another one in from another android 2.1 device? I don't understand why it isn't working, or why it can't be fixed. I've tried backing up the app and re-installing it, deleting the external db's, running media scan apps. Disabling it, re-enabling it...
[HTC ChaCha] MySelf_v1:
Hi there!!!! Here you are a few problems to deal it (it's 5 hours i'm working on it and didn't find a way out yet):

1. I've unlocked my ChaCha via HTCDev and everything works good.

*Restarting my device in bootloader and i can see the UNLOCKED txt over there.

2. Made a goldcard of my phone and everything worked out fine here too.

3. Trying to install the CWM but, obviouslly, it won't work.

*Is my device S-OFF? No, it's S-ON but i've unlocked the boatloader didn't I? Via HTCDev? It should work but it won't.

*When i try to flash it i got a version-related error so, i guess it is everything about the firmware version, isn't it? I have to downgrade because actually it's 1.10.

Yes, i do, but HOW?

I've tried THIS but:

a) Achieve temp adb shell root ?????? WHAT???? Not even in the other page they explain it how to do it, they just say DO IT.

b) "or simplest way is to use the batch file created by qzfive" oh, oky.. i will... BUT THE LINK IS OUT OF DATE!

Can anyone write WHAT AND HOW I HAVE TO DO THINGS TO GET THIS THING UNLOCKED?

i had a lot of android phones but no one was that hard to unlock... Not even the WP7 HTC Mozart was that hard.

I'll be glad to the one that will help me with this.
[HTC ChaCha] msknext:
After you hav unlocked, its very easy to install CWM. Its ok if its S-ON. Extract the zip (you can get it here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1164468) to get the recovery.img and put it to the folder where you have fastboot and use this command to flash CWM,

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Now you will have your CWM on your device.. ;)

[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
This thread started off as a mod request because I thought it was my proximity sensor causing the issue. After further investigation I'm completely stumped as, disabling my proximity sensor didn't work (or the disable wasn't effective, not sure). Highly modified original post to make the thread relevant to the direction that its going.

Issue details - screen will not stay on while in call unless enabling speakerphone mode. After call initiates, screen promptly turns off. Pressing power key wakes the screen up but the second a finger is touched ANYWHERE on the screen it turns off again forcing one to wait for the call to disconnect itself or pull the battery to hard reset the device (whichever comes first). The issue seems to be somewhat inconsistent, as some calls I get more responsiveness out of the screen than others. It DOES seem to be software related as this issue is very, very specific. It only happens while a call is active. The screen and standby functions work 100% of the time otherwise.

Facts:

-issue was not present before obtaining s off and upgrading to ICS

-issue is present when doing a clean install of the Rom (energy, though I'm inclined to think its not Rom related for obvious reasons)

-issue persisted even when restoring an old back up of a gingerbread state from days prior to obtaining s off and flashing ics.

I know I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. I've spoken with several others who are having the same problem. Hoping an xda elite on here might be able to figure out what might be causing this to happen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

----------------------------

(Original post) -

My proximity sensor is on the fritz and making it impossible to multitask anything while on a call (so much to the point where sometimes I can't even hang up and have to pull my battery). It's killing the screen the second I touch the screen anywhere while on a call.

Can someone tell me how to, or would someone even be able to put something together that'd allow me to disable my proximity sensor entirely? I don't really need it anyways since I can just manually hit standby before I hold my phone up to my ear. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
Too tricky? No one? I know I'm not the only one encountering issues with their proximity sensor freaking out while on a call.

I guess ill just have to live with the inability to do anything on my phone while on a call unless I activate the speaker. Not the end of the world.

But if anyone can write a script/throw something together that'd turn it off you could save ne a lot of trouble and help others that are having this issue as well. Nbd ::shrugs::
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazypotato:
would a piece of tape work? just tape it over the sensor.
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
No cuz then itd just stay off. The problem is that the screen won't stay on while in a call. If I touch the screen anywhere while on a call the screen shuts off immediately. =( very annoying. Can't even hang up sometimes.

Totally worked. My proximity sensor seems to be off but oddly the screen still won't stay on while in call unless I have speakerphone enabled lol.

I figured it HAS to be related to the proximity sensor cuz the screen shuts off the instant my finger touches it... But apparently the problem is related to something else entirely. Thanks though =)

Just a slightly annoying glitch I can live with. Guess I'm gonna have to lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Totally reflash your rom, leak, whatever.. that bug sounds like something didn't take fully on initial setup. Can't hurt to try. I say this because it sounds VERY similar to the problem I had with my Vibrant.. and many of the issues I keep reading people having make me think that the install methods aren't perfect and fool proof.

If you're on the leak you'd have to make a nandroid, but if on a rom that doesn't wipe data partition you can just wipe the system and reinstall- or worse case restore a nandroid of data partition.
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
Yeah. That was my first suspicion. Sadly it persisted even when I restored a backup of when I was running nrg's gingerbread Rom. Think it might be some kind of weird hardware failure since it persists no matter what I do (clean install from scratch with everything wiped/cleared).

Nit a huge deal. If j ever have to look something up while on a call all I gotta do is throw the speaker on which is normally do in that situation anyways he he. Just bothersome when there's an issue you haven't been able to fix no matter what you've tried ya know? =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Headshots4life:
I have the same issue, I thought it was just my phone. It's such an annoying issue, can't even hang up half the time. I love the phone but that one issue is really irking me. I never had this issue til I updated to ICS.
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
That's the really strange thing of it is that I never had the issue till I flashed ICS as well, but then the issue persisted when I restored an old gingerbread backup. Hopefully someone might see this that might have a better understanding and be able to figure out what's causing this to happen. =L. I'll change the subject of the thread to hopefully draw attention to it.

Question for you (let's compare) are you s off? And what Rom are you currently running? I'm inclined to think its not Rom related since the issue persists even when restoring a nandroid back up from days before I ever obtained s off and flashed ics. It'd be nice to confirm this is happening on Roms other than energy. Don't feel like going through all the steps to flash revolutionary or any of the other ics roms at this moment just to confirm what I already suspect.
