I could not find any topics about themeing on our dear ace 2 so i decided to make 1.I want to be a themer but i first need to know which icons go where.The framework res drawable hdpi folder has so many icons.Some of them are not even used in our phone.So can a kind soul explain every last detail on each and every icon and where can they be found.I know this is a tedious process but it would be beneficial to all newbies like me.The world could always have more themers:D

[Nokia Lumia 920] aidicula:
So I finally decided to take a leap...from my Android (htc one X) to Windows Phont (Lumia 920). The initial experience was good. The build quality of the phone and the response..the screen is great. So i switched off the One X and decided to make the lumia a full time replacement....thats when I noticed these issues...any else have the same?

Google contacts: Yes...Windows does accept a google account, but i noticed not all numbers went into my 'people'. I had to go and rename all second 'Mobile' to 'Car'. remove Others...etc etc...In the end it worked. Phew!

Power button - its a bit dodgy...the other buttons seem ok. the power button seems a little off. Anyone else notice this?

Whatsapp - Video cannot be uploaded. Clicking on the video button does nothing! (2.8.2 version)

Push email - Exchange and generally all push emails come really late! Is there something I can do to make it work the way its supposed to work?

Gmail email - My second gmail account cannot have 'as items arrive' option, though it allowed for my first account. How do I enable it?

Music app - As it starts...the music starts to play..but the phone doesnt respond..it hangs (typical windows!)..the home button etc does nothing for about 5-10 seconds..and then it responds

Music player (pause/resume) - So i was listening to some music...and then i got a call..pulled out my headset, the music paused..great..spoke to the other person on the phone...after the call ended, the music continued to play..from the built in speakers! how do I change the option to NOT resume on headset connect?

...i am starting to miss Android...a little bit.

I just got this phone and I think I screwed the pooch?

I followed the tutorial for doing S-Off and then rooting and installing CWM which all worked. I created a backup for my Sense OS and then decided it was time to put a new rom on so I copied the .Zip for Cyrogen Mod9 and installed it but when ever I tried unlocking it it would freeze and then reboot so I decided to restore the old one and read more. I read that it needed the right firmware so I updated to 3.33 Universal and then installed Cyrogen Mod9 and now it still has the issue and if I restore the old one it just shows the htc screen then reboots. How can I fix this?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:

When I compare 2 Sgn2 side by side then I notice there is a difference in both the screens as one is bit darker and sharper whereas the other one is lighter and normal

Both has screen protectors of the different company's . So can it be because of that or I think my handset screen is faulty ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almaalma74:
I compared some sgn2, and I found some screens are different, but every screens were same w/ same firmware. So, I can't say any clever, but it's maybe related to installed firmware also.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
If this is true than that sucks... I've been comparing the screens of my Note 1 and Note 2 and unfortunately the screen on my Note 1 is sharper and brighter. Videos are more detailed etc. My Note 2 is made in vietnam, I think, because of the manuals inside says "printed in vietnam".

I think I'm going to return my Note 2 as I'm not that happy with the screen quality. :(

And LOL at the above post. "these things r common in all the devices which includes apple also.". Why do many people always have to use tu-quoque arguments and point at apple?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pat.:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
Mine was made in Vietnam and the screen seems fine to me. I think the differences are down to the grades of glass used.

I had a similar problem with my iPad 3 and apple said that they use different grades of glass that can cause tint/colour problems between devices.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SrAdama:
Thanks. On the battery it says "Cell made in Korea, assembled in Vietnam". On the phone itself it says "Made by Samsung".

Both the Note 1 and 2 have way better screen than the S2, no argument there! But what I'm talking about is the screen of the Note 2 compared to the Note 1. Even though it's very sharp and good, it's not as sharp and bright as the Note 1. :(

The difference might not be noticeable for some people who don't care about that or hasn't had them both so they can't compare. But for me it's very noticeable..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woyorus:
Hi everyone,

I have a problem with my GT-i9300 with stock JB & stock kernel (I9300XXDLJ4), the battery drains too much fast while screen is off, even after all apps closed or cold start (if screen is on, battery drains abnormally fast as well). BBS shows lots of partial wakelocks named NetworkLocationLocator, and of course I have googled this and found an issue in AOSP issues list, but no solution. (sorry can't post links, issue #37348)

The only thing I can do to prevent early battery death is to go to Settings->Location and uncheck 'use wireless networks', but this is really bad for overall user experience. Things like latitude or google now are disabled.

I am attaching lots of screenshots that might help to understand my problem + BBS report and logs.

Thanks everyone in advance...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Woolf:
Mate, you know that there is an entire thread dedicated to better battery stats......... Search will probably lead to a resolution.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunomax:
I have exatly the same issue. Search and search and nothing. already troubleshoot using BBS, the only way to do it is disable it or use an app that disconnects 3g and wifi and connects it every x minutes - like easy battery saver. the only thing I am amazed is that there are not so many reports about it...

will keep you posted since I keep troubleshooting.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woyorus:
It seems like I found the problem, at least on my phone. I have disabled SNS (Social Network Service or so, a weird app shipped with the stock rom by samsung) and also uninstalled the facebook app, looks like I don't have the issue since that. Battery has drained much less overnight today, and I don't see any location-related wakelocks in BBS. I'll try to find what exactly causes the problem
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunomax:
Can you please be more specific about this service? Where did you disable and what was the name of the app?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woyorus:
It's under Settings->Application Manager. You have to swipe twice to the right in order to open 'All applications' tab there, and find SNS app, and then click 'Disable' button. The app's icon looks like Facebook logo (little f letter on blue background). Please let me know if it was helpful.. and don't forget to freeze/uninstall official facebook app
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunomax:
Thanks. Meanwhile I've remove and disable a lot of services, mainly from Samsung that I don't use and the battery drain is more stable when the device is on standby.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beatsleigher:
Well, have you noticed anything other than the services and battery drain? Maybe an in-/decrease of performance, or something else?

If you look on the Android *stock* battery stats app, you'll see, as soon as the screen is off, for the night, the data connection goes crazy with different signals and network modes. Have you tried putting the phone somewhere else at night, maybe just to see, whether that makes a difference? I'm guessing, you get fluctuations in your network, at night. That has happened to me, quite a lot, as I had my GS II (Telekom DE fixed it, though).

If that isn't the problem, then you've probably installed other third-party apps, that are causing this battery drainage, maybe they're collecting your user data, or something.

Anyways, hope I could help!

LG familyguy59/Beatsleigher
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunomax:
Yes I've been watching it. In resume:

1) if you activate use networks for location the battery drains even if none app request it.

2) there are a bunch of services mainly from Samsung that drains the battery just because they do.

3) if I leave my Wi-Fi off for the night it will drain 5% against 20% if I leave it on

Probably this one is because of weak Wi-Fi at my bedroom. Yes I've selected only when connected but even so the phone doesn't respect it.

4) if you have selected backup this phone to Google it will drain the battery also

5) I can have really good battery life if I disconnect Wi-Fi and data and connect it once in a while

But my point is why should I need to manage all this stuff? Why do I need to spend more time troubleshooting something instead of having fun with a new phone?

I've used juice defender, battery stats and a bunch of other applications just to conclude that android and Samsung are a piece of **** regarding power management.

And yes, Google now is disconnected and also history location.

If I wipe my phone and do not install anything, battery life is regular, as soon I start to install apps it will start to drain without apparently explication.

I have bought an extra battery and will live with it. I this it's just an os feature.

I've tried some custom rom's but all of them have problems, some because something doesn't work, others because developer didn't implement it, so I know if I want one good enough to suit my desires,I should cook it myself but I do not want to do it, so I came back always to official one.

And I do not have enough patience to undervolt or spend my nights tweaking something that should have work from out of the box.

This is my experience with my first android and I think this is why people always have complains about this system. I'm just going to live with it and accept the fact that this os have lots of defects that should not exist.

One thing is true: it is very frustrating from an user experience point off view.

Just my 2 cents
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woyorus:
I completely agree with you here. I don't know what exactly causes the problem, bugs with Samsung's software or bugs in Android itself - I don't care. The user experience is awful with this device.

I really considering getting an iPhone. iOS is built the way when regardless of amount apps installed and their quality the battery life is stable and decent. No app, maybe except VoIP, could drain battery if it's in the background or the screen is off. For me personally, all this Android's 'customizability' causes only decline in UX and battery life.

Ridiculously, there are lots of poor quality apps for Android that behave extremely bad, for example The Tribez game. It's a game, and I am expecting battery drain only when I'm playing (isn't it logical?), however, I do get drain caused by this app even if it's closed! That's ridiculous. I just bought an iPad version and I have absolutely no problems with it, moreover, it is running much faster on my dualcore tablet than on my cutting edge quad core phone. Of course, this is just an awful job porting the game from iOS to Android, but I'm sure, mostly this is problem with Android itself. This is the _mobile_ OS, and it must not allow any app behave like this (like iOS does, it kills badass processes almost instantaneously). I'm sorry Android fanboys, but your lovely OS is a poor quality product.

I've already said too much, but again, I don't want to think if my WiFi or anything else is turned off, I want to use my handset. I think you get my point.

Hi there!

There is a sense mod that allows the wallpaper's sliding on jelly bean??
[HTC One X] The-Last-Hylian:
'There is' or 'is there'?

One is a statement and the other is a question. I'm not having a pop at your English, just trying to help you learn as both mean different things.

I haven't seen a Wallpaper 'Slider' app myself, sorry.
[HTC One X] andyoso:
Yeah, I know it....I've just done a stupid mistake with the sentence construction (English is not my language).

Anyway you would have been able to understand the nature of the phrase from the question mark ....

Anyway...I'm searching for a Mod to enable the wallpaper sliding on JB ROM like on ICS ROM
[HTC Sensation] RealSkier:
Stupidly, I updated my T-Mobile Sensation 4G ROM to the OTA ICS 4.03 which, as most know, killed Bluetooth voice dialing and also mangled the auto-screen brightness. (And wow did TMO piss me off when they put that "upgrade" out with no warning about the functionality loss.)

I've tried workarounds like VLINGO and Assistant but they just aren't as simple or as reliable as I need or want. The old Google Voice dial app worked fine but alas, not through Bluetooth any more. So now I'm thinking -- new ROM.

I'm semi-used to flashing stuff with my old T-Mobile SDA and HTC Dash 3G. I've also rooted my Android Tablet (Cruz). But I'd totally put myself in the n00b class when it comes to what's out there for the Sensation 4G or where to start. So pardon the questions (and yes I've searched the forums).

1. What would be the easiest, full-featured stable ROM that would give me back my BT voice dialing while still preserving full HTC Sync capability? I depend on HTC Sync to link my phone with Outlook's calendar and contacts. I don't know if HTC Sync depends on HTC Sense but I'm guessing it does.

2. Battery life is important. I see that's a short coming for a number of ROMs. Would be nice to also have a fix for auto-screen brightness.

3. I use the camera, wi-fi, video and music player stuff a lot. I sometimes use Polaris Office.

4. Other parts of HTC Sense for me are sort of a mixed bag. I like some of the features like the widgets, news feeds and facebook/twitter integration. But it wouldn't kill me to use the separate apps.

5. The software I download and install from Play is mostly non-graphic games, utilities, stuff like that. So graphic gaming speed is not a priority but it's a would be nice.

6. My grandfathered data plan included tethering so I don't think I'm affected by the ICS update but then I haven't had need for it since I'm not traveling like I used to.

7. I'm not at all picky about how the UI "looks". I pretty much just have the calendar widget, clock, a few apps and the Assistant activation bar on my home screen.

8. Getting rid of the TMO bloatware and other things I never use would be cool too.

Any thoughts on where I should start? Recommended ROMs and a pointer to the best guide for doing what I need to do to install it would be great! And thanks to all the cookers and helpers here. When I find a ROM I like, I do donate.

For the rom ARHD Tmobile one will be good for you

Now as for rooting

There are two ways for you

1.SOFF and then rom..This process can be two ways again :)

1a. It involves HTC-DEV unlock then doing soff..but the critical part of process(wire trick) is comparatively easier... Auggue2k guide on "juopuntbear soff" in sensation general section

1b. Soff without HTC-DEV.. But wire trick is bit harder than the other process.. Guide link in my signature

Once soff is done.. Look up for joaquinfs guide on flashing ARHD.. It's a sticky in sensation general section

2. Flashing roms while being SON.. This needs HTC-DEV unlock to be done.. Guide is by asskickars "flashing roms with SON" in sensation general section
[HTC Sensation] RealSkier:
Thanks ganeshp. I'll take a look at the ROM you suggested. :D Have to get myself a bit organized on all the steps. Looks like the HTC-DEV unlock is pretty straightforward so I'll probably go for your choice #2.

Hey everyone I'm new semi new to xda.

I'm an android photographer and have been extremely interested in being able to express long exposure.

I know there is a relatively new app on the iphone market that is gaining some steam.

It's called average camera pro and here's their description

My question is, is it possible for any android, in my case the galaxy note 2, to do this? From what I've read it's essentially bracketing but it then averages all the shots out.
