Well, I always appreciate a "uniform" look across the device. Google's design guidelines for 4.0/4.1 help out with that- http://developer.android.com/design/index.html

But it's up to you if you want to go for something more unique!
[Nexus 7 General] Zyxxeil:
The problem with that is that the app is not all code, its code to launch the website it renders to the device, and download manager. It loads a website as a view, so i have to make a image by image, like the button to download all by scratch which is a big problem for me, and would take lots of time.

How do I get the stock messaging app completely removed if I want to use something like Handsent or SMS Pro and not have multiple messages pop up ?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Crinkypops:
Go to the SMS application and then go to settings. After that, disable the notifications. Voila.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] psal217050:
And if I want to use the SMS apparently? I can't get to the stock message apparently unless I open the ROM zip file, can I?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
Any way to do this on other roms ala ParanoidAndroid? I'd like to change the dpi for specific apps not the whole phone. Searched the market and came up with nothing. Didn't get much from a gsearch either.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] elesbb:
Its in the build.prop.

ro.sf.lcd_density=

or if you dont wanna mess with system files, download LCD Density Modder from the market, and use that. you have to be rooted though.

EDIT: thats impossible to do it for specific apps, and pointless.. lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
Not pointless. Its one of the best features on the paranoidandroid port. For example the xda app is huge I'd like to make it a 200 dpi. But I want to keep apex at its default 240.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] elesbb:
AFAIK... paranoidandroid is the only ROM able to do this. Even in then, there are still numerous errors, FCs with apps. To answer your OP, its impossible without paranoidandroid. Unless you wanna grab some source code and figure it out ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marco_ch:
with the i/o jelly bean 4.1 I had significantly less wifi signal strength than before. this fix http://goo.gl/LyXiV did improve the situation a little. now with 4.1.1. it is about as good as with the fix. still weaker than other smartphones i used (galaxy s2, galaxy s plus, nokia n9). they all performed much better in terms of wifi signal strength.

is anyone having some more insight into this? would love to see the signal improved as i can not use it in all rooms anymore. wifi dropping too frequently instead of keeping stable (even if on a low level). it is fluctuating too much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asawoszc:
I've actually noticed poor Wifi signal as well (not just with Jelly Bean but also before on .4). I just bought a small repeater to get around the weaker signal I seemed to be getting. :fingers-crossed:

What are you using to measure your wifi signal level?

[HTC EVO 3D] Funkyasshit:
Hey.

Today I was just playing around with my friends Nokia N8. The phone overall is crap but I found one really good feauture. It has FM transmiter. I turned on FM radio on 102.0 on my E3D but he was playing his music from phone. He choosed 102.0 and his music started playing on my mobile under Radio Nokia.

As I understood Evo 4G had this FM Tranismitter. Maybe we have it to and it's possible to get this thing working? ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
This would be cool, but I would think that if it was there, one of the awesome devs would have implemented it already. But, I hope I'm wrong.

Sent from my ICS 3VO with Tapatalk 2
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
This was discussed last year. The fm receiver physically is incapable of this. Sorry I don't have a source, just remember the discussions... Would be nice.
[HTC EVO 3D] runcool:
My LG Fusic could do this! However, it was a waste of time half the time. However, ours I do believe COULD do this. However,... just need software written for it. won't work because needs headphones plugged in 100 of the time which is annoying. just because someone claims it can't do something doesn't mean it can't. he/she just isn't smart enough to figure it out... however, sure if there are hardware limitations.... I could see that as an issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Yeah, I remember someone saying that the chip or something has the wiring disconnected wherever it would transmit from. Something along those lines. Which means you'd have to add that connection.
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Yeah, while the FM chip supports this on our phone, the hardware is not there.
[HTC EVO 3D] runcool:
therefore... it does support it. :-P Just need to open our phones up. hahaha
[HTC EVO 3D] Funkyasshit:
I saw a thread on Evo 4g to swipe Fm to transmitting. Right now im on vacation but could try it. It's better to try and fail than do nothing. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
I don't know if this is related , but on my old wildfire that had cyanogen on it, when you started the fm app, it would start the bluetooth. If you tried to close the bluetooth connection,the fm would stop.

I don't remembere quite well,so if i am wrong i'm sorry, but i remember something about the bluetooth frequenties that are near the fm ones?

If is not this i would really like to know why cyanogen needed the bt open so you could losten to radio.:)
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Not even close. If every single bluetooth device worked on FM frequencies, it would interfere with every fm radio.
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
This was because the bluetooth radio and FM radio were built in together. Shutting one down turned off the other and vice versa. This was common on most phones I've had with bluetooth and FM. I don't know if that is still the case on newer phones though.
[HTC EVO 3D] 1branchonthevine:
You seem to know alot about the FM specs... Last I heard it was a broadcom bluetooth/FM chipset combo... but I'm still searching to find out what model/series it is (w/o taking my evo apart ;) Any extra info, or at least the method to find out, would be peachy! THX
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Just wanting to know what you all think. Not too much discussion going on here about them. I've used them all, good experiences. Pro, cons, whatever. I personally like the stock .230 leak. I find the smart actions very nice. Also like the app drawer with the different groups.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rjp0615:
Personally, I like the 230 update... plan on updating to 232 soon, but holding off because every time I flash, another one comes out.

I'm not one for flashing nightly roms, but I've been itching to try CM9
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Yeah I am a little hesitant about flashing .232. But I think it's good news that these leaks keep showing up.

I used the CM9 from the .2233 leak and wasn't overly impressed. I feel AOKP has more options. But these Moto leaks are just so nice in my taste.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] razz1:
I prefer AOKP but there are still some issues with it such as static in the Bluetooth. I have 2 phones on me all day at work and the use of a headset is a must. I am on stock .232 with Apex, init.d, and pull down toggles. I have pulled all the bloat and system crap that I don't ever use. There isn't really much at all running in the background. I have pulled some init.d scripts from different roms to speed things up more but not sure which one I'm going to use yet. As soon as AOKP has the BT issue fixed I will be flashing it though.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Sorry for the noob question, but how do you get the pulldown toggles on the stock rom?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] elreydotcom:
You can download notification toggle from the play store and set your own toggles in your notification bar
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
That's pretty cool. I was thinking it had to be a modification to the rom itself.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bra!n_5torm:
CM9 and Lovin it.

I stayed on the .232 leak for a couple days, enjoyed the new "Blur" but there were just a couple thing i didn't like. The launcher was alright a little prehistoric compared to today's standards with Apex and especially Nova being so fast and smart. Not being able to change the Lockscreen shortcuts aggravated me but overall the Lockscreen with its separate Camera, Phone, Messaging, Sound settings, and Lock is nice.

But after I flashed CM9 i wont look back. You can customize everything, there is shortcuts to everything, its very responsive, and Cyanogenmod Team really made there stock applications wonderful. You can tell they took there time in making everything run smoothly and look great as well.

So i would go with CM9 especially Axiobeam.06_TARGA. Thats what i flashed and i love it. It includes alot of extras worth having.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] whomhead:
I'm currently on 232 and love it. Tried AOKP and CM9, and while they are both solid, they both lack one CRUCIAL feature- Webtop.

Since I am addicted to my Lapdock, I'm staying with Stock ICS until a good rom comes along with a working Webtop.

Not a big deal though since stock ICS is pretty damned-near perfect.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Kram28:
The CM9 u tried, was it the unofficial one ported by dhacker29?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
While I do love the features of CM9, there are small things that I really like about the Bionic ICS, like the text app. I like the black background versus the white of CM9/AOKP. I haven't toyed around with Apex enough to know its potential, but I have no complaints about the stock launcher.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jetknife:
I've flashed 2231, 2233, and now 232, and all of them have had constantly high CPU and RAM usage, making my phone painfully slow to use. However, on the AOKP ICS-leak builds I had no such slowdowns (despite other bugs), with almost all of the same apps installed.

Has anyone else experienced poor performance with the stock leaks?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Occasionally I notice the slow downs, but have definitely noticed the high cpu usage, even after switching governors.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
So I've been using AOKP for a few days and noticed the light behind the capacitive buttons never shuts off. Even when the screen is off they just dim. Any ideas for a fix, or is that part of the ROM?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Drunkula:
Go into your display settings and toggle the auto-brightness (IIRC)...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dblkspecial:
Any of these ics roms have it to where the starts bar WONT scroll down on the lock screen?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Drunkula:
You really only need to ask the question once in a given forum. :p But honestly I haven't noticed in on either the ICS leaks I've used.

EDIT:

Actually I just noticed it but I think it is as designed. If my phone is locked, not just screen timed out, and I have an unlock pattern (probably pin too) the status bar does not open. If the screen is timed out the status bar can be pulled open.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Not sure, and don't see why it would be a deal breaker. Currently using AOKP with no problems at all.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dblkspecial:
Only thing that's turning me away from cm9, AOKP or even liquid is the crt animation is down towards the bottom of the screen and when I scroll from screen to screen is glitchy unlike the ics leak
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Yeah that was bothering me so I turned CRT off. I just recently installed CM10 and its nice aside from the lack of camera. Definitely very promising.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dblkspecial:
As soon as the data and camera gets fixed that'll def be my daily
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nkmassie:
Not having data is a bit of a pain, but I use mostly WiFi. But I have read some people got data on by toggling a bunch of stuff.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jics91:
I'm opening this thread because of the reason the titles says, I have a i9100 from Panama and have uptaded with mobile Odin, the firmware I used was Samsung-Updates.com-GT-I9100_TTT_1_20120312105922 (UHLPE) from Trinidad & Tobago for Latin America. It was rooted on GB and it kept rooted with Odin mobile options (Keep SU, etc).

Now I got ICS 4.0.3, it's pretty good, no bugs or lags, but my battery drain is not that normal (like on GB). So I decided to flash a Custom ROM and browsing I've noticed that there isn't a save way to flash CWM on ICS for UHLPE.

Is there on XDA any other user with my problem (request)? Please Help!

How do I get this phone to show up as a Usb drive when I plug it into a pc? I know you can view files as a mtp device but when I tried it with a winxp machine it only shows the internal sd and not the external. Also at times I couldn't view files at all when plugged in as mtp.

Ever since the big website update most pages on here are not constantly reloading over and over. I have to hurry and click a link to view a thread or make a post before the pages reloads again. Anyone else having this issue, and is their a solution for it?

Using Firefox 13.0.1 + ABP + NoScript.
[About XDA developers] BretonGirl:
Sounds like a buggy plug in or extension in your browser. Disable them all and then add back one by one until you find the culprit.
[About XDA developers] johnnyrichter:
Doesn't seem to be doing it anymore.
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
I've heard of this issue when members are using the NoScript plugin. If you allow xda-developers.com it should load the page without issue. I've been trying to track why it will reload when using NoScript but haven't figured it out yet. Let me know anyone determines why that happens and I'll fix it.
[About XDA developers] vborovic:
I think the main culprit is the googletagservices.com ... allowing only that one in NoScript stopped the constant reloading of the pages at xda Forums ... for me at least.
[About XDA developers] johnnyrichter:
I do believe you're right. Earlier today the problem returned, probably because I have been viewing direct thread urls/bookmarks rather than navigating the forum lately. I kept trying to temp-allow scripts between page reloads one at a time but none worked...up to and including everything being allowed which I would imagine rules out NoScript. Just now I blocked everything but the main page script and the one you mentioned and that seems to have worked.

Edit: Nope, no dice. I went to the Captivate section and saw no sub-sections so I allowed and disallowed scripts until I found the one that displayed those sub-sections which is the Googleapis.com script. The second I allowed that(with googletagservices and main site script still allowed) the page went in to the infinite reload loop again. I tried to revoke the permissions of googletagservices and it made no difference.

When I revoke googleapis permission to run the page instantly stops reloading, but as mentioned above it delivers content necessary to the forum. In order to navigate the forum I need that script permitted and I have to race to click links before the page reloads. :(
[About XDA developers] snarkophilus:
I'm only an occasional visitor to XDA, and hit this problem today. I'm using Firefox with noscript. Allowing skimresources.com with noscript stopped the reload problem for me. I already had googleapis.com allowed.

Cheers,

Simon.
[About XDA developers] johnnyrichter:
I just finished temporarily allowing 30+ scripts and the reload loop seems to have stopped. This website has more scripts than any website I have EVER seen in my time of having noscript installed.

Still can't figure out what script needs to be disabled so googleapis can stay enabled. With this ridiculous amount of scripts it'll take me an hour to figure it out. -_-

ETA: With all scripts running the pages are now constantly loading. Right now it's loading something to do with the liftdna script. My advice? Cut the scripts down to 5 or less because 30+ is unacceptable and problematic.

ETA2: Results from WebPageTest when I ran xdaforums.com in it. Not sure if this has anything worthwhile in it.

[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
If you allow *.xda-developers.com this should allow the proper scripts to run. The issue is that NoScript will allow xdaforums.com to run, but not the CDN files hosted on another hostname.
[About XDA developers] johnnyrichter:
The only script like that I'm seeing in the list is xda-developers.com with no prefix.

I'm not sure what I did yesterday but it has been stuck in a reload loop since then. The last time it did this it randomly started up again.
[About XDA developers] HybridByNature:
Reloading Issue Resolved

After reading this thread I had an idea. I figured that the constant reloading was definitely due to a script-like extension. Although, I'm on Chrome. The culprit for me was AutoPager. Disabled that and everything loads no problem. Hope this helps some people.
[About XDA developers] tier~:
Still stuck in a re-load loop for me both in Firefox 16 and 17 while using no script. Haven't been able to find a working combination yet without disabling the plug-in completely.

[About XDA developers] MFighter:
bad idea xda....

Something hosted by xda-developers is making this page loop thing if you do not allow skimresources.com...

since skimresources.com is something i do _NOT_ want to allow here is the solution:

go to "about:config"

change skimlinks to their (new?) url, to make it "surrogate" the real tracking script.

change noscript.surrogate.skimlinks.sources it from

.skimlinks.com/api/

to

*.skimresources.com

srsly admins @ xda, this is not something users want...!!!
[About XDA developers] dk75:
"skimresources.com"?

I don't have it at my Chrome NoScript list at all, and only one that I allowed are:

xda-developers.com

googleapis.com

google.com

As a Chrome NoScript isn't as sophisticated as for Firefox, I've launched it also and there is no "skimresources.com" there also, and with those same 3 sites available and "XDA 2013 Beta - 1024" theme used there is no problem with either main page, dedicated forums/threads or search page.
[About XDA developers] MFighter:
check the source code...

can't post "links" due to postcount... hence *** with http replaced

<script async type="text/javascript" src="h**p://s.skimresources.com/js/32656X903838.skimlinks.js"></script>

it's only there when logged in...

wtf @ xda admins? srsly...

regarding why it might not show up:

it's considered blacklisted, just because it's such bs, hence it won't even show up usually... (this is an assumption, check google for: "skimlinks.com noscript surrogate" )

The problem is constant for me as long as I allow the googleapis script, but blocking it hides many features of the website/forum.
