You might all know the popular Instagram!

And you also know how annoying it is to crop and post squared images!

For iOS, there's an app called SquareReady which fills a photo with black/white bars on top and bottom to get the full photo on instagram, which is pretty awesome!

Like this;

Is there an app similar to this for Android?? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] charliebigpot:
Unfortunately there isn't a program like SquareReady for Android yet. If you want the same Instagram-effects without having to crop a picture you can try Streamzoo.
[Android Apps and Games] WIIstpM:
Thank you very much I am now officially addicted to StreamZoo xD

It is way better than Instagram honestly...

Oh and Btw Follow me on StreamZoo : _NeitsabeS lol

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mejori:
i always back mine up on the internal sd card andhave a rom in there just in case..others may do it differently, but there are many options recovery allows you to download from pc via usb... but its better to always have a back up on your internal card in my opinion.. because in some cases you can lose access to the external sd card..just my opinion..just remember to take your time and read/follow instructions VERY carefully!!!:laugh:

sd card

if you dont have room on internal sd card..then yes get an external sd card(you should always have one) and move some stuff over like media..etc

Actually new vid is out, a little more refined: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=2Hqwn5HpESc

You might be misunderstanding on the sd card, you have an internal sd the phones drive, this is where I put my ROMs to flash. The external sd that you can put into the phone is or can be your backup, I use an external meaning I can remove it, this is where I put my backups of items.

I only use the built in drive internal sd for storage of my ROMs to flash. There are lots of video on this subject, just do a youtube search on the subject.

While we are at it, if you are on a computer check my links in my signature, I have a {General information and Helpful Tips} section for some good reading and the GNote Super page also for all your flashing needs. And you can PM me or just keeping posting lots of good folks around that will help.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Reclaim:
Honestly, you need to use the search function. Read everything you can. If you have to ask if you're wrong, you're wrong about something. I know you don't like to hear this, and I also know you don't want to ruin your device. If you don't take the time to read and research, you won't understand the Rom that you flash anyways thus leading to more questions from you that can be solved by searching and you will only annoy the developers and ruin things for everyone because you developed bad habits of wanting things dropped in your lap. No one is here to hold your hand through the process when there's a wealth of information at your fingertips. All of the people that have accomplished flashing their phones have done so without a thread like this begging for a walkthrough. With all due respect, follow the rules because nobody is responsible for damage to your phone, but yourself.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridder215215:
Either supercharge it or just overclock more (you don't want it to be higher but still want your phone to be faster?).
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuppy989:
1.6 Ghz should be the rough estimate for a stable phone. Anything above 1.6 for me and my phone starts to heat up fast. At 1.9 I could probably cook an egg with it.

Once I do that and clockwork or 4ext, I want a stable sense rom. What do I have to do before flashing?? And I want a stable rom whhich one?

[G2 and Desire Z General] g1user101:
Help?
[G2 and Desire Z General] biohazrd51:
This page should have all your answers. If you're looking to use sense ROMs, I recommend changing to the DZ hboot as it is necessary to run newer Sense ROMs (3+ i think).
[G2 and Desire Z General] g1user101:
How do I do this??
[G2 and Desire Z General] KyraOfFire:
Assuming you know adb well...

Yes, you have to downgrade it first then root it. I suggest you using these guides here at cyanogen for downgrade and root

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/TMobile_G2:_Firmware_Downgrade_(Gingerbread)

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/TMobile_G2:_Rooting

Reason: The web page it self is a heck shorter than the one at XDA.

Just please click the thing it read it, it's short.

Once you have done these things you should have rooted Froyo with CWM Recovery 3. While it's an adequate version I suggest you update it first (Play Market to the rescue) then do an Nandroid backup, just in case.

One thing you need to know: When you're in CWM Recovery, you need to press the trackpad to select options.

Now you have to get a Desire Z Hboot. I recommend this guide

http://www.virtuousrom.com/2011/06/t-mobile-g2-users-migrating-to-desirez.html

Once you have the Desire Z Hboot, you can use Sense ROMs. Stable ROMs would be any GB ROMs (the Desire Z/ G2 is pretty well-supported here), like this one

One X has a micro sim, I believe the note has a regular one but not completely sure.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sdc177:
Yep. Just called AT&T. However we can call in and have the sim cards reassigned so no big deal. Either that or buy a new one for $25. Obviously the first option is much better.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
Just cut your sim card to the right size of a micro sim. I've done that before and it worked fine.

I've also come from a Note before this and am very happy with the switch to the HOX. It sucks your on 2.20 tho. It doesn't look like there's gonna be a root for it anytime soon and even if there is you may not be able to unlock the bootloader. I suggest trying to find a HOX with a lower fw. I actually have one that I'm trying to sell.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] co.ag.2005:
Sim cards are free... I went in and got a micro sim from att and then when I got home (phone was waiting on my doorstep), put the sim in, called 611, and activated it! Easy peasy.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
Even tho that may be true, if I were you, I wouldn't switch. I think the roms are better here. There was always noticable lag with the snapdragon s3 when I had the Note. Also, the community wasn't pleasant at all. You think there's flaming in the hox community? Wait until you get a Note. Although, things could have changed. I haven't had the Note since May. Just wait and grab the Note 2.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Shaddy-Z.:
I wonder what my HOX will be worth once the note 2 rolls out. I don't think it can get much worse than the recent price drop. I'll probably just give this to my mom on some stable sense rom she hates her iPhone for some reason :rolleyes: good advice sir!

ICS/JB as a whole is currently a non-starter because we are lacking drivers for the cell radio.

MAKE SURE TO INSTALL SAMSUNG KIES FIRST.

I think the people who have problems don't have right usb drivers installed. Samsung kies will install right drivers.

I also notice the backgrounds don't rotate once u switch from default ones. Which is annoying. I'm sure another fix for next version.

[HTC One S] Phuturist:
My adventures with the HTC One S just dont seem to end. Here is a short history:

First thing I did when I got the phone was flash over CM9 as I dont like Sense

All was good until the home button issue popped up, this was at that time my only issue and sync worked just fine

I flashed over CM10 when it was stable enough, this didnt fix the home button issue though

I then flashed over the new RUU with radio 2.21 and directly after that CM10 again (I still dont like Sense)

After the first flash I had a lot of grey signal bars (either bad signal or no connection with Google servers) so I flashed CM10 again.

The signal bars where blue after that and the new radio (2.21) has improved the signal a lot and therefor minimizing the home button issue

But since the new radio I'm experiencing a new problem, just as much annoying. My phone wont sync when the screen is off or wont sync at all unless I do it manually.

This is what I have tried so far:

First cleaned cache from Gmail, Google Services Framework and Market -> no fix

Rebooted the phone with airplane mode on and enabling data connection afterwards -> no fix

Factory reset from recovery, flash CM10 again and restore apps with TB -> no fix

Factory reset from recovery, flash CM10 again and no restore of apps but just vanilla CM10 -> no fix

I have ran out of options so I could use some help here. Why are emails not pushed to my phone when the screen is off?
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
I had all kinds of sync issues with that radio until I flashed Trickdroid 7.1 which is built off the base which included that radio. Can't figure out how, but it's like they work best together though my best guess is that TD just maintains more free memory, so whatever process syncs the phone doesn't get killed. You can even desense TD as part of the tweak pack if you want to try it
[HTC One S] Phuturist:
Hmmm ... thanx for this info. I hoped the problem was not related to the radio and I missed something stupid. When I have some time I'll make a nandroid backup of CM10 and will give Trickdroid 7.1 a go, see if it fixes things.

Another solution I was thinking of was buying Tasker and schedule a sync job. When set up right it might even save me some battery juice.
[HTC One S] Phuturist:
I tried Trickdroid 7.1 today but spent no longer then 5 minutes on this ROM. Although I selected all options of going back to stock and removing anything related to Sense in the Trickdroid Tweaks it was no where near the AOSP feeling I like best. So I didnt like Trickdroid at all.

Didnt properly test the syncing but in the one test I did I received my email instantly. So I guess there is indeed a problem with the new radio and CM10. I'll report this in the CM10 support thread.
