How to add widgets on the homescreen?

haha yes i am working on it, it is because it usually opens other apps only for SGS3 i am currently in the process in porting them!

This just made sense 4 lite that much better. I didn't want sense for the widgets, I wanted it for it's fully working camera. Now I have a ROM tailored to how I would like it! Thanks OP
[Desire HD Android Development] mcjordan92:
Thanks it works perfect,

But honestly, it sucks.. whats so great about this launcher besides the fact that its brand Galaxy S3?

I use Nova launcher, super functionality, better than samsungs and better than sense 4. and still of course I have any htc apps (camera,clock,weather and so..)

Perhaps the thing I would wish for from the S3 is the lockscreen

haha i just like it for its speed and how it does not use much resources, it prolonged my HTC one X battery life quite a bit, well not really (2 hours or so)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
My family has been on Verizon, on dumb-phones, paying a fortune as is standard for Verizon.

I offered somewhere around last Xmas for them to come on my plan, to get smartphones, for roughly the same money.

Here's the deal:

Non-technical people, all of them- My mother (66) her boyfriend, my younger sister (37) her 16 year old son.

Regardless of phone, I'll probably set them up with something simplistic as far as screen layout, and they won't change it.

I've found these deals on Amazon Wireless - ALL these are a penny now, when adding a line:

Epic 4G Touch - $0.01 when adding a line. Pro: I know it, it's familiar to me. Great camera. Con: it's not really so current any more.

HTC EVO LTE - $0.01 when adding a line. Pro: Specs up against Galaxy SIII. Con: Non-removable battery not so good for family who keeps phones for years.

Galaxy Nexus - $0.01 when adding a line. Pro: Vanilla Android. Con: Less current guts, lesser camera, they wouldn't appreciate Vanilla anyway.

They also have the Galaxy SIII for $79 - I'm tempted to go that route for one line, taking that as an upgrade for myself, and giving my nephew my current E4GT (along with two Chichitec batteries and charger, case, screen protector - not a bad hookup).

I've currently got an Epic 4G touch, I got mine the first week they came out, which feels like forever ago.

I may have a bad taste in my mouth because of some serious degradation in numerous ways following the upgrade to ICS (I have a thread on this), but I'm torn on getting my family onto this platform.

I'd like your opinions- vote and leave one, thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Any android phone they get would be a learning curve from a dumb phone.

For the deal you found, I'd do it. My opinion.

And I'd get the 3 as well. ;):D

Whats wrong with the GNex camera? High quality pixels > more pixels. For a given generation of sensors more pixels = less contrast. It also means more heat and more heat = worse noise. Each generation of sensor design gets better allowing for pixel count increases without sacrificing quality in comparison to the last genetation. GNex's shutter is faster not that I have had any complaints on the E4GT. But the GNex's camera was supposed to be well liked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
Thanks - which? All three are $0.01 and have pros and cons for a layman type user.

Note, I can (and will) personally train and advise them, as well as initially set up their phones and desktops in a simple, logical, useful way.

Fortunately, that's what I do professionally, on the front lines on implementation projects (in a specialized banking software industry).

I'm mostly concerned at taking a step back and seeing which phone is the "best" - in terms of what they see, not my geeky techy values.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Well, I'd say "These are your choices" Give them the standard pitch of what phone has what. That way, they chose and don't blame you if they don't like it. Ya know?

Besides, you're including them. Let them have a say as well.

thanks for the heads up on the GIII being $79 - I may check that out myself
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
We decided to do the E4GT for everyone, and I picked up a GSIII for me. 2 day delivery- not bad.

The $0.01 price is apparently for starting a new individual plan, they were a still-cheap $9.99 when adding a family plan line. GSIII was $110.

Some of the deciding factors were the camera, after reading some Galaxy Nexus vs. E4GT reviews, and also Swype was a big one - I've got Swype on my tablet through the beta program (did that for my last phone), but they aren't going to jump through hoops.

The Evo non-removable battery was a total killer for my family whose old cell phone battery life had degraded, and led to phone replacements in the past - and would be for me too, I occasionally forget to charge overnight, and just pop in a charged battery. Why would any OEM go that route? Stupid, IMO.

Thanks for the help!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Are they going to be setting up a brand new account or going under your account? Because we're offering this deal right now (at corporate sprint stores) that if you set up a brand new account with 3-5 lines, you'll get an extra (up to) $400 off the already discounted upgrade price of the phones :)

EDIT: ahh you already pulled the trigger lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
Actually - funny you mention that.

Pulled the trigger, yes... but the gun backfired and I have black on my face.

I got a cancellation notice from Amazon because I didn't realize I needed to convert my single account to a family plan before proceeding, so I did it mid-order, and all I got from a lousy hour-long call from Amazon customer service (that included a 3-way call to Sprint, who said everything was fine on their end) was that I'd need to wait 36 hours before placing a new order. So they won't get their phones before they go on vacation Friday regardless.

I've only been on Sprint for 1 of my 2 years in my contract, I was going to simply convert it to a familiy plan. Does that count as "new account"? It's definitely a different account, since the single plan even prevented my Amazon order.

Let me know, if I can walk out with phones that could still get them phones by Friday. :cool:

Thanks!

EDIT: Prices too turned out to be different for "adding a line" vs "brand new account"

The E4GT's were $9.99 (still cheap), and the GSIII was $120.

I figured "cheapest prices" were the reason to do Amazon, but maybe this pushes them closer to Sprint prices. I don't know what those are right now actually, I assumed $200 for the GSIII and I don't know on the E4GT.

EDIT EDIT: Coincidentally a coworker was having a phone repaired at a local Sprint store, so I took a drive with him at lunch.

Thanks for the heads up on the $400 back - I did pull the trigger:

The E4GT's are $149 minus $100 ($400 / 4 lines), and then there's an additional $50 mail in rebate, they send you a $50 gift card, so each works out to be free. Free is good.

The GSIII was $199 minus $100 (one of the lines), so it only cost me $100, which is a better deal than would have been through Amazon Mobile. Thanks!

Saw they announced this today -

If already rooted the stock ROM on a new TMo S3 with the first ODIN-based solution posted (CM recovery), can I use the ROM manager to update the newly released TMo update via stock ODIN flashable ROM with root injected into the system image - TMO T999UVALH2, without having to go through all the steps with ODIN, ...

If the ROM manager is not to be used for root66_TMO_T999UVALH2.tar, then are the steps provided in the link above still useable, even for previously rooted S3?

[OT] After having rooted the phone, checking the flash counter I found it to be 3. Any idea why?

Thank you for the follow-up. Although I am done with the upgrade via the easiest path: Kies to be able to install the latest official OTA-released -> then re-root using the original link I sent, I am a little confused about your last statement: the root66 I have is inclusive of the UVALH2, which is the latest official version, in my understanding. I found a reference to an UVALH3 (supposedly JB related), but that is not what Samsung / TMo delivered OTA lately, and I don't think that's what you meant?!?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arschend:
Hi All -- Longtime lurker and fist time poster here. I've been rooting and flashing for over a year and have really benefitted from all the work and wisdom here.

I've gone from stock on the day the Epic was released to the MostlyStock ROM to CleanGB to several iterations of TPR BML, ODINed the FC09 modem.bin, etc. then recently went on a flash-a-thon over the past month or so, went to the MTD format and tried AOKP M6, REMICS, and finally CM9 RC1 and CM9 Stable.

Today I flashed the ZIPs for the NS4G modem on CM9 and its working fine AFAIK, but roaming doesn't seem to work (I'm in a Sprint near-dead zone at work, but have always roamed OK there).

Now I want to go back to the FC09 modem and don't know if the modded CM9 Stable kernel will work for FC09. However, I can't seem to find a flashable ZIP of the CM9 Stable kernel. Can anyone post a link or point me in the right direction? A Goog search got me this --> (sorry, cant post a URL) forum.sdx-developers.com/?topic=19367.msg245599#msg245599[/url], but am not sure if it'll work for the stable build.

Respectfully,

Al

Hello, I am new here and I tried to post in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1285573 but I have not made the 10 required posts.

I am only looking to root my phone so that I can make it a little faster. The LauncherPro app did a lot already but I failed on findind a decent typing keyboard

Also, would like to run VM Heap manager and look in to a bit of overclocking the CPU

However, after passing the masochistic Captcha on this forum :P, I can post here. The above thread I posted the link of speaks about a Startools.zip which is not to be found it also has some other attachements I feel are not useful to me.

However, I did install z4root (just downloaded somewhere, not sure if that is a problem) and tried *temporary* root. Which does not work, it says it works, but it doesn't according to several rooted apps.

I am not in to changing ROMS or such, not sure about Clockwork mod or restoring factory settings either, I would like to delete the stupid Imo beta software for example and other ones who seem to start and login unasked and I can kill them it starts itself up again and that is annoying because it is my phone!

Now I did not dare to try to root my device with z4root by hitting the root permanently button as adviced in that topic.

However, what should I do? It is just so I require the extra speed and I am happy with this phone which with added speed like LauncherPro already is doing a decent job I feel with a good price/ performance

Please help me a bit, I searched, oh yes, I searched.

regards,

Richard

p.s. It is running Android 2.3.6 I am happy with, I don't feel the need to upgrade this thing, want to make it faster only, not brick it or take unneccasry risk it is a phone ffs ;)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] richardwbb:
Hi, that is exactly where I looked, see my first post.

The issue I have is that I was unable to find a good way of rooting, one that is safe.

Now people say that rooting can be unsafe but there is not explained how.

Assuming the rooting software is properly programmed, I fail to find if an unsuccesful rooting attempt will leave the phone's software unchanged.

Also there is no confirmation on this Star A2000 if it is rootable or not. There is a manual saying use z4root but this didn't seem to work, atleast the temporary root did not work at all, and this manual did just say permanent root it, not permanent root it because temporary root won't work.

I can't tell if there is a difference in a temporary root and a permanent root with z4root, I don't know what it is doing there.

I mean that I am not worried about the change's I am able to make to my phone, after it is succesfully rooted. I know Linux.

I also won't try changing ROM's, all I want is to change the memory heap to speed it up a little bit and disable the start up scripts of unwanted software that is booted all the time, advanced task killer, the Android way of managing applications is able to kill them and the system just starts them again. That is annoying.

I am after only this, I won't deinstall programs, I just would disable some of them because I might later find I need them again.

I also won't disable or remove vital software for the phone booting.

But how hard can it be for rooting software publisher, to tell to their users it is safe to attempt rooting, even if it can't be rooted, or in other words, will it leave the telephone software untouched with an unseccesful attempt and will a succesful root also ensure a succesful reboot of the phone?

IMHO, that is all I need to know about rooting and I can't find anything about that anywhere.

Is there a MOD for this?

Also on top of AOSP its 4 different choices which takes you to the log or contacts, and the effects of switching is awesome.

Thanks for the tip, but I would like AOSP as my main dialer.

Is it possible to copy secContacs and SecPhone from /system/app before I flash the theme, and then copy them back?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlynnErik:
Don't think this has been asked before:

So I usually use my tab sitting in my chair chilling with it up in front of me in landscape.

I have tried to play 2 games now that use the device's accelometer (since it doesn't have a gyroscope from what Ztest says). Both are going totally nuts. Is there anyway to calibrate it internally so that when I am chilling out with it upright it uses that calibration rather than the one when it is laying flat (ie on a table).

I doubt there is, but hey its worth a shot, and just in case anyone was curious, it was Grabtron (indie free game from the market) and Asphalt 5 both with the issue.

Grabtron actually has a calibration option, however you can't calibrate it with the position I use the device in, which I find kind of interesting.
