i used to havea handspring treo..a dn it had this programthat let u play a smal clip when somebody called.. it was somehthin like photo contacts but with video instes of photo.

an idea if this is possible with the JAM. or any other 3rd party program .

thx
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] spindoctor:
think i have itsort of figured out

well i couldnt get it exactly as i wanted but this is close.

the photo contacts rpogram in the jam had a feature called assign default picture. this alwasy the use of gif files also.

gif files r sort os image sequence that palyed at a certain speed depict animation. old school yes, but it works

so there r tons of gif files online. but if u want to maek u r own here is how.

teh downside to this is that u cant load big file. i haev a 440kb naimationa nd its just right.. anything bigger slows the caller id feature on my jam.

i use a mac. ( the best !!!!) so i haev quicktime pro version. here is feature called export so u export ur clip as an image sequence . set frame rate at 1 per sec. keep the quality teh least. this all keeps teh file size small.... u can messa round with this if u want..

then u get a string of files ( jpg ). save it a folder.

i use a program called GraphicConverter. load teh folder into teh pogram. adn click on convert to gif. set teh settings as gif movie. adn fidle around with the delay rate till u get it right..

now the movie u get the size is as big as ur original animation. shrink it too 218 by 164. this is the max the caller id take.. anything bigger and till will still kepp it to that size.. so no point makin it bigger.

here is the animation i haev in mine.....

any assitance to mke it better will be great
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ratcom:
can any one point me towards the PC software to convert jpg's to a gif please ;)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] bnycastro:
you can try macromedia fireworks mx. I use this to make animated gif files but I make them really simple (just 2 frames)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] spindoctor:
here is a link.... it says it does the trick.. cant try ti out myself since i use a mac. but u can give it a try and tell me how it goes..

Can you assign gifs for individual callers or only as a default?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] spindoctor:
yeah u can..... just rem. it cant be too large...

heres another one i made using the steps i explained in my earlier post
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] sdmoviez:
what's the max. size of the gifs and in what folder to put it in?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] spindoctor:
there is no max size... but i noticed the bigger the file size the slower it loads. i thik anything below 500kb is good.

now it can u put anywhere..either in the sd card or in the main memory.

but i noticed that if u put in the main memory it loads faster too.

u can put in anywhere.....photo contacts searches everywhere
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] sdmoviez:
the next problem is: how to display the text (name caller and phone number) in front of the gif ?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] lifeinhand:
Caller ID Template

I use XDA mini and I can create a calling template using a gif file.

Try this software then copy the created template to \My Documents\Templates
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] spindoctor:
in xda mini.. there is program called caller id... go to ur particular contact then click edit adn click on assign photo... u can see all teh options there to add name etc
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] spindoctor:
hey the gif files i loaded before were backgrounds. if u want a background PLUS a photo of a person at the saem time i thought it wasnt possible.. but it ispretty simple...

all u got to do is make a group and add ppl to that group.. then u assign a pic the the group using the program caller id again... then u assign individual pics teh each contact..... Voila....

c if it works for ui giuys adn let me know

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Zeganso:
Hi guys!

I’m having a different problem altogether.

I can’t seem to get my called id template pics to work nor does it show the assigned pics when I use the photo contacts prog.

In which folder should the caller id folder be in? I might have changed it’s place while moving stuff to the memory card, but anyways shouldn’t the photos appear instead?

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] GizModio:
I've been looking up and down the forums and would like to ask here just in-case someone knows...

The LG Optimus 4X, has a beautifully sharp screen with fantastic viewing angles. The only true let down is the colors/Vibrancy of the screen. Does anyone know of a tool or a kernel we could use to adjust the screen profile to our tastes. I would like the colors bulging out of the screen.

I have used Advanced Color & Gamma Control from the Play store but have had no luck. The same can be said for Screen Adjuster and Filter Your Screen. I haven't yet tried the Eternity kernel, as it really isn't up-to scratch for me just yet.

Any Suggestions guys? :good:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nishantshekhar.02:
Hi,

My Xperia Z got stolen nearly a month ago!! Unfortunately, I didn't had anything installed on it that could help me track it down.. But it came with McAfee security installed as standard!! I had it registered but was not using it. On the McAfee website it shows my IMEI number.. but since my subscription has expired I cannot track it from there.. My question is, whoever stole my device obviously did a factory reset! As standard Mcafee should be up and running(atleast I hope so) do you think I should buy mcafee subscription,?? Is there a chance that I would be able to track my device back?? if anyone here know, weather the McAfee registration gets reseted if you do a factory reset?? Cause I did a few data wipe, for the brief time I had my phone.. It was always there.. and it didn't allow me to uninstall it..

Any inputs on weather buying th McAfee subscription will help me or not.. will be very usefull!! Thanks :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reignzy:
Honestly not sure if it will help, but try it anyway.

You should've had an antitheft app installed for this very reason....

Truth be told, Sony just launched the MyXperia stuff that helps you track and trace your phone with this link https://myxperia.sonymobile.com/ unfortunately it has to be activated on the phone. McAfee might be able to help you but I wouldn't hold my breath on that matter, good luck hunting down your phone!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nishantshekhar.02:
Well, I know that there is very little if any chance of me finding my phone back.. But thank you for the input.. I'll try buying the Mcafee subscription, and see if it can locate my phone (fingers crossed).. The my xperia was not available to everyone when my phone got lost.. so no luck with that. till sony does not introduce something to keep track of their devices with IMEI, it thinks it pretty impossible!!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anirudhks:
If you are in india. Report to police with u imei and police can track it and find it many of my friends who lost got back this way

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kirkymole:
I don't know how your local police work if I am totally honest but over here in the UK the police can track phones that are stolen, if there is enough evidence it was stolen and such. Speak to the fuzz, see what they say, the worst they can do is nothing, but nothing for free is better than paying for it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One3OneKing:
Ok my battery was draining at a faster rate than normal so i figured I'd reboot my phone. Once I shut down my phone and hit the power button it boot into fastboot mode. I am literally the most basic Nexus 4 user meaning, I've never rooted, unlocked, flashed or done anything to my phone. I simply just don't know how to do any of this stuff so it's not like I was tinkering with anything.

I searched online and I went into recovery mode and tried to reset the phone and wipe the partition and it just reboots to the fastboot mode. I honestly have no clue what went wrong. Again, I know nothing about root and stuff but there must be a solution right or am I the first person to ever brick their completely stock phone by trying to restart it? o.O I figure some of the awesome people on here what know what to do or to simplify some steps to fixing this. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Sounds like your volume down key might be stuck (as holding that when you power on is how you get to fastboot).

If it's not that then maybe you should try downloading the factory image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and letting that install.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex_Dreyk:
I don't think the button is stuck.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One3OneKing:
Definitely not the volume down key. I'm able to navigate with volume rocker in fastboot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faddyie:
are u able to get to the bootloader and recovery
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex_Dreyk:
I picked an instrucktion form the link below.

As you have already wiped it do as in instruction;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One3OneKing:
yes, I can get to recovery. can i get to the bootloader?how would i get there, no clue. lol
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Bootloader = fastboot

Try the factory image flash.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One3OneKing:
I kind of have an idea of how to do that but a link to a set of instructions would be great. I've looked but most people have rooted and installed computer programs so I didnt know what exactly I would need to do in my completely stock scenario.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faddyie:
Dear if you have not rooted it. your stock rom has not gone any where...

Goto recovery and then press volume up key and power button. keep holding for like 10 secs and u will be get into the system. However, check that your volume down key is not pressed
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One3OneKing:
No luck. This is crazy, I literally don't know what happened...:crying:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spaceman860:
Being that you haven't unlocked or rooted the phone its most likely a hardware problem. If you bought it from Google RMA

From my BLACKED OUT N4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Before RMA'ing try the factory image. You don't need instructions, you just run a .bat file while in fastboot. What have you git to lose?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
if you wiped your partitions, then you dont have a rom on your phone. flashing the factory img via fastboot would fix that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
You can't wipe /system from stock recovery, so he didn't do that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i havent seen the stock recovery in a loooooooooong time, just going by what he wrote in his post :angel:

heres his quote, and thats what happens exactly when you dont have a rom stalled on the device..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
I'm guessing he wiped data and/or cache. If he truly is stock like he says then he didn't wipe his /system partition.

My phone got messed up once and I couldn't make or restore nandroids nor boot past the CM boot image, and it ended up being because my /data partition got corrupted. No idea how. I had to flash stock Google images to get it to boot. it happened during normal use of the phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yea, if had my data partition get corrupted too, wouldnt finish booting. flashing the stock img fixed it quick. but it was my own fault.. bennchmarking at 1890mhz with fsync turned off ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] One3OneKing:
I ended up just taking advantage of my warranty and I'll get a new one. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions and tips. I'm still trying to figure out why simply turning off the phone to restart it caused this to happen. It makes no sense.:confused:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saayinla:
Hi All,

I have a sim free One and the problem i have is I am unable to unlock the screen while a call is in progress. I can press the power button to turn the screen on but if I try to unlock the screen , it goes off again so I am pretty stuck with a phone unusable during a call. I ll have to tell the person on the other end to disconnect in order that I can access the phone again, I cant use speaker phone while making notes or reading out from the phone.

Should I send this back please?

Thanks in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MinecraftZombi.es:
Sounds like something is covering the proximity sensor. You got a case or screen protector on it that might be covering that?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saayinla:
I dont have a case neither do I have a screen protector on.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MinecraftZombi.es:
Have you installed any brightness mods or anything like that which mught be misbehaving?

Or any programs which have functions for customising the brightness, power etc?

If no, then it sounds like your proximity sensor might be a bit over sensitive, and firing off all the time thinking it's next to your head.
[Java for Android App Development] punticci:
my battery application has a settings menu in wich there are basically 3 checkbox. In the first (the main, until this is uncheked the others are not clickable) there is the option to activate the nofications in the navigation bar. In the others it's possible to choose what show in the notification. Now the xml of the preference.

<PreferenceCategory
android:summary="Settings"
android:title="Settings" >

<CheckBoxPreference
android:defaultValue="true"
android:key="first"
android:summary="@string/summary_show"
android:title="@string/Show_notifications" />

<CheckBoxPreference
android:defaultValue="false"
android:dependency="first"
android:key="second"
android:summary="@string/summary_level"
android:title="@string/title_battery_level" />

<CheckBoxPreference
android:defaultValue="false"
android:dependency="first"
android:key="third"
android:summary="@string/summary_temp"
android:title="@string/title_temperature" />
</PreferenceCategory>

Now, in my ActivityMain i have the code to show the informations about the battery through the BroadcastReceiver(i write only for the battery level because i think the other is the same):

private BroadcastReceiver batteryInfoReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {

[MENTION=439709]override[/MENTION]
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

int level= intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_LEVEL,-1);
. . .

String[] statusbatt = {
"Battery level: " +level+"%",
. . .};
ListView lvStatus = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lv_status);
lvStatus.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this, R.layout.list, statusbatt));
info.getListViewSize(lvStatus);
}
};

And the last thing is the notification's code:

NotificationManager notifi = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Notification notification = new Notification.Builder(getApplicationContext())
.setContentTitle("Battery Informations")
.setContentText("Batteria al"+" "+level+"%")
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.icon_small_not)
.setTicker(level+"%")
.build();

notification.flags = Notification.FLAG_ONGOING_EVENT;

Intent i = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);

PendingIntent penInt = PendingIntent.getActivity(getApplicationContext(), 0 , i , 0);

notifi.notify(215,notification);

Actually the notification start when launch the application and i can't turn it off and it's because i need to make the settings to check and choose if display it or not. What i want is that in a new activity, settings.java, when i press the first check box i can activate the notifications and then, by what you decide, the notifications appears. I mean, i check the first (the notifications are now avaible), i choose to display the battery level in the notification and the temperature so now they added in the notification. Hope you understand. thanks

Sometimes I listen to music with one earphone only so I want the other earphone silenced. Is there an app that does this?

Sent from my SCH-I535
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
Why would you want or need a separate app? Look for a music player which allows you to control the balance between left-right speakers, but bear in mind that you will lose the track from whichever ear you aren't listening on.

Alternatively, why not just leave one of the earphones not in your ear?

I do take the earphone out but apparently others can hear it at times. It's not a big deal just wondering if there's an app for this

Hello everyone,

After lurking around XDA for a while, I've decided I'm tired of just flashing ROMs and would like to become more active in learning Android development. In that pursuit I have acquired a second OG EVO for development purposes, and figured helping others will probably help me out as well. So if any devs need a ROM(or anything related) tested, please feel free to PM me. Thanks! :D
[EVO 4G General] nathantaylor:
Not too long ago I made this same decision, and I've been learning so much and getting into it: Two people you will want to contact are Wambo_Bomb and Jlmancuso. Both are extremely helpful.

If you want to try to build, there are two really good guides I'd recommend. Also, I would use both of them together, each have details you'll probably want.

Guide 1

Guide 2

tweaked 2.3 rom or any jedi rom. they are the most stable and everything works.

i am not a touchwiz guy but i am on the tweaked rom because i love the volume hack...

as for aosp roms which are non touchwiz. i would say pacman rom or aokp.

but be careful not to ask questions like this to often because it is really up to the person using the rom what

is the best. everything is not for everyone.. good luck... but for my two cents, as much as i love aosp roms it seems that the

touchwiz ones seem to work best with the note 2. hate to say that..lol

As the title said...

I'm looking for the most battery efficient, most smooth working, most application free (I don't want all the google applications, I use only Play Store, I don't like to sync my phone with the google apps) official ROM for my Galaxy S+.

I live in Romania. The i9001 ROMs for Romania are from vodafone and cosmote (mobile network providers), and these ROMs don't satisfy me. I would prefer a stock ROM without any change provided by the mobile network companies.

I do updates with Odin, I don't use kies...

The custom ROMs work very good, but it seems that the battery drains very fast... I had the swiss 2.3.6 version and the battery drains much much much more slowly.

From your experience which version matches? And where I can get it from?

I hope you can help me. Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alwaysfresh:
Ok, because no one replayed, I've done some researches and flashed with Odin the 2.3.6 GB I9001XXKQG_I9001NEELE1_NEE.

Now it has the stock recovery and stock kernel.

Can I root it?

Can I change its recovery and kernel?

Which recovery and which kernel?

How to do this?
