I'd like to prevent my notifications and program "badges" (can't think of the proper word!) From stacking up in my notification bar at the top of the screen.

It happens when i have a lot of icons there already, ie wifi, alarm etc. Despite there being plenty of room in the middle of the bar, my notifications all stack into one icon on the extreme left hand side with the number of different programs/notifications shown as a number.

Is there a way to prevent this behaviour and force android to use all the available space on the notification bar?

I'm running Ion r2 on my Dream, although my phone has always done this, with the stock rom and JF 1.5 as well.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer!
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Sure, keep the number of notifications low and they won't stack. They stack when you run out of space on the bar. I know you think that there's lots of space, but if you unstack them, rest assured that there are definitely too many to fit in the space available.
[G1 General] GenericNode:
Unfortunatly there is no forseen solution to this problem. I experience it as well. I think the best we can hope for are new phones with higher resolutions.
[G1 General] setspeed:
This isn't right. There is definitely space for 4 more icons, yet it stacks with just 2.
[G1 General] cigar3tte:
I'm on Ionr2 and I have 4 icons (email, Toggle Settings, Twidroid, USB) on the left side before the stacking starts. I'm not sure if it's gone up to 5 or not.
[G1 General] setspeed:
When the phone is in portrait mode it stacks when there are more than 2 items on the left hand side - even though there is space for more items. When in landscape, it shows all the notifications/app icons individually.

Very annoying, since the home screen will only display in portrait mode and wont auto rotate when the phone is turned.

Im convinced there must be something i can do to fix this issue!
[G1 General] cigar3tte:
I was talking about portrait mode. I'm pretty sure there's a fix since I do not have this problem. However, my home screen does rotate though, since I have dxTop.
[G1 General] YPhoto:
Do you happen to have Quick Calendar installed? Even though Quick Calendar did not display a little icon on the top for each item in the list and only say in my "ongoing" area on the bar, when I removed it the stacking you talk about went away! It was driving me crazy too, but it seems like either Quick Calendar or the OS sees each entry, even though it doesn't have an icon and counts them.

Not sure if it will help you, but my phone has been working properly after I disabled Quick Calendar. It's a shame, I like the app. :-/
[G1 General] setspeed:
Genius! Removing Quick Calendar solved the problem - thanks!
[G1 General] setspeed:
I've put a link to this thread at the devs website - perhaps when he has solved the issue he could let us know, so we can go back to using his otherwise useful app.
[G1 General] corp769:
Never had this type of problem, only thing is that my colors blend together because of the custom theme I am using >.<
[G1 General] YPhoto:
Ok, I confirmed with the developer this morning, it is QuickCal, though I guess any other app that hides icons would also have this problem as it is a restriction in the os. Jim (the developer) works for google and plans to petition his employer to make some changes to the way the notify bar works. The os allows the developer to 'hide' notification icons, but they still take up an invisible space.

We should see an update in the next couple of days to make a nicer widget with more info and smaller font size, so this may satisfy me if the widget is decent.
[G1 General] setspeed:
Awesome - I already miss QuickCal and I only uninstalled it yesterday!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Vampire2800:
I updated to the ROM on HTC's website under software download. Now, I have distorted colors after a soft reset. Hard resets don't fix it either. The only fix that works SOMETIMES is if you put the PPC to sleep via the power button & then wake it back up. This sometimes resolves the issue. All 3rd party apps worked fine on the previous (shipped) ROM & I haven't changed anything. Before this msg, I tried all the avenues in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3638336#post3638336

although it's more or less for the newbs, which clearly I don't consider myself to be, lol. Hmmmmm............. Any clues? Thanks in advance

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] gerazzo:
Hi,

I've falshed my Magic with the NOVERCA HTC Rom. All good about the OS but.

1. I've made a sync with outlook for the contacts. I have some contacts with both first and last name and some with only the first name. When I scroll the contacts i've have first all the only first name contacts (from A to Z) and than all the first and last name contacts (from A to Z). So if i have to see all the B contacts with first and last name I have to scroll first all the only first name contacts and than the other one.

2. I have installed the GPS widget (the blue one)... but every time I tap on it it gives me an error (interruzione imprevista dell'applkicazione processcom.roundedlabs.widgests.gps). With the original Vodafone rom it worked fine.

Thanks for the help.

How To Get Rid of The Black Autocomplete Box When Using Hardware Keyboard

To Hide the Autocomplete Box:

1. Type as Normal Until Words Start Appearing

2. Press Menu Button Twice

3. Autocomplete should hide itself

To Bring the Autcomplete Box Back:

1. Press the text field once

2. Should Pop Back up once you start typing

Super thanks to the1wingedangel for figuring it out!

Original Post:

But does anyone know how to get rid of the black word suggestions that pop up

underneath

the text entry box when your using the full keyboard on the G1? I for the life of my can not figure out what auto correct option to uncheck. The worst part is that its really unpredictable and might show up 1 out of 10 times i start typing with the keyboard.

Thanks guys : )
[G1 General] Senorkabob:
EDIT: ooops sorry. Over looked the word 'full'
[G1 General] dlorenzod:
Good question...that started showing up randomly for me a couple of days ago.
[G1 General] uberingram:
Double tapping the text box while your keyboard is open should get rid of it from showing up again.
[G1 General] RainCrow:
Hmm good idea uber, will give it a shot next time the thing pops up and let you know how it works out.
[G1 General] CBowley:
That annoyed the hell out of me so much i switched roms. It would auto-replace words that I didn't want replaced.
[G1 General] RainCrow:
Alright so I tried the double tap thing and no luck on that front. Didn't work out for me. Anyone else try that fix out?

And I know what you mean CBowley. It might just take a .lib deletion or something to fix tho. Heres to hoping that something comes up : )
[G1 General] uberingram:
Make sure you're doing it before you type anything in the box or it's locked to the ON position. I've done it a few times on my phone right here and it's working like clockwork. :-/
[G1 General] RainCrow:
Ah I see so are you saying to double tap before I enter anything in the textbox ever? The problem is that it will show up completely random times like 1 in 10 or something. But I'll try double tapping before entering anything in the field and see if that keeps it at bay.
[G1 General] maubig:
To turn off auto complete and auto correct:

Menu->settiings->Locale & Text->Touch Input (or whatever KB u r using)->Text Input

From here you can turn on/off all KB/typing features.
[G1 General] RainCrow:
Thanks maubig, but those settings don't help change the autocompletion for the full keyboard. VK isn't giving me the problem.
[G1 General] the1wingedangel:
Ok, I seem to have figured out how to kill that annoying text suggestion pop up when using the hardware keyboard. When it pops up, double click menu button. To re-activate it, touch the text box once, then start typing. Seems to work.
[G1 General] RainCrow:
Excellent Angel! That worked perfect for me. Did the trick exactly like you said it would. Lets see if it works for other people too. Time to change thread title. Thanks : )
[G1 General] runderekrun:
Thanks for this... I despised that stupid black suggestion box.

[G1 General] widto08:
I've searched and found nothing on this so if its already been discussed....

I found a way to save your contacts that you currently have on your phone, through your google account, to your SIM card using the

Hero Rom

. I haven't seen or found a way to do this with any other Android Rom. If someone knows of a way to save contacts to SIM in any of the other Roms, please post it ;)

To save your contacts using the

Hero Rom

, follow these steps:

1. Tap People (contacts) icon.

2. Scroll to the Contact you want to save to your SIM Card.

3. Tap on your Contact to bring up Contact Information.

4. Click MENU button for option menu and tap More.

5. Here you will see "Save to SIM". Tap it.

6. You will be prompted before saving to SIM.

7. Tap "OK". If your contact name is too long it will automatically be truncated to the maximum allowable size (messages will appear for a couple of seconds stating this and that it was saved to the SIM) and you will then return to your contacts list. At this time it will

NOT

show that your contact was saved to your SIM, a reboot is required for it to show:(.

After rebooting scroll back to that contact and you will see that contact sporting a new SIM Card icon showing that your contact is indeed on your SIM Card :D

note: After doing this your contacts will no longer be synchronized so be sure to check the box by MENU=>Settings=>Data synchronization=>Google=>Contacts to keep your contacts sync'd with google.
[G1 General] shwan_3:
I have many contacts with no phone number in my google account, it syncs all of them I could choose to see only contacts with phone number on the stok rom , how do I do that here on hero ?

I've been building Android images in my spare time and running them on my phone. Anyway anyone out there want to share their tips or tricks on building Android for the Vogue. Things such as what to put in .repo/local_manifest.xml.

Also is anyone working on getting the hero rom working with the vogue. I've tried but only get as far as having the htc boot logo loop. And if I put the contents of app_s in /system/app I get no boot logo but a bunch of permission errors.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
You have to watch which hero build you're trying to use. Many of them use apps2sd which will cause issues if you don't have you sd card partitioned. I worked on a couple of them for a while with limited success but what I did get running was much too slow to work with. However the released files are from a very early build and as such there are alot of force closes etc. Hopefully HTC will drop a hero phone sometime soon with a complete build, which will make the process much easier.

All is in the title, How can we get images from TP2 TF3D to edit them ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] nicelad_uk:
Go to your Windows folder and copy out every single _manila file. Then load Manila Editor which can be found by searching XDA and go through them 1 by 1 to see which is which and then replace the images with ones created.

There are about 400 files, its time consuming :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] alex83fr:

[XPERIA X1 General] pikipirs:
As for add/remove items, check out \Windows\Start Menu folder on your device. And yes, you can make your own folders in Programs. If you open files already there, you'll find out they are simple text shortcuts.

As for resort... easily, no idea. I usually manage to "calculate" what must I "bring to front" (by tapping and holding on an icon) to resort everything the way I want.

Okay this is the first time I've used a 6.5 rom ([13/June/09] X2H'S WM6.5 Designers ROM(D.R) - [BETA2] - {Build 21812}) and the word completion was totally crazy so I went to the tab and unchecked all of the boxes. It, or something else that tries to assist me with typing, is still making me crazy. I still see it underlining words as I type them in Internet Explorer and when I hit space, it usually puts in two spaces. Sometimes it puts in spaces in the middle of words while I'm typing them. In Slick, when I hit the space bar it pauses for about one second or maybe even a little bit longer. If I type normally I get one to four more letters of the next word typed and then it pops back to the beginning of the word for the rest of it, which turns everything to gibberish unless I wait for the space to appear after each and every word I type. It's driving me totally crazy! Can someone provide an explaination for this? (Appologies for double posting, but I thought I might get more help with a fresh topic if it's a general WM6.5 issue, which it seems like it probably is)

Unchecking all the boxes made it screw up. It works much better with all unchecked except "Enable Auto Correct". I've been told it's a build issue so I'm going to check out 21815 but I suspect I'm going to end up using ham3r's vanilla rom (21502) so I only have the programs I use.

I don't know if this is common knowledge to most of you or not, but you can a have a different image for each screen on your homescreen. To do so, let's say you have 5 screens, get your 5 images make them 320 480 and make them into 1 image. That's pretty much it.

Or use sweeter home and make image layers that fill each screen. you could even have a different wallpaper on each and some layered images on top that bleed across screens.
