ok first i think that if people like you are going to start judging the way that others are raising thier children then this thread needs to be closed and you need to seriously take a look at yourself before you do anything else you can raise your children the way you like but dont judge others (unless there is actual abuse going on) second you have a 5 year old wait 7 or 8 years and then you might change your mind teens are a completely different ball game.

and on that note my final thought to you and then I am leaving this thread alone is that I see parents like you all day long I even have a friend that raises her kids with the same line of thinking and im not saying that you are wrong but most of the time they are spoiled brats that have no respect for any adult other than thier partents. Also everytime you see a parent on the news after their kids been taken by some perv you hear the same thing "we had no idea he/she was doing anything like that" oversight is your job as a parent if somethign happens to your child it is no ones failure but your own.
[Hero CDMA General] derekstory:
What an ass hat thing to say. you have no idea what the world is like, what kind of sick people are out there. Its a parents obligation to protect their children. Im a religious person and i resent what you said. I trust my kids, I DONT trust other people out there that would prey off small children.

Sorry for the rant that comment just touched a nerve i guess.
[Hero CDMA General] doojer:
The funny thing is, you guys act like the kids of today actually value their privacy. I wish! The truth is, you really don't need this app, all you need is a Facebook account. Anything you want to know about your child is, sadly, right there on the internet. :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA General] doojer:
If you think your 5 year old boy is trustworthy, intelligent and perfectly moral, you are in for a rude awakening.... :eek:
[Hero CDMA General] sdotcarlisle:
please dont show my wife this.
[Hero CDMA General] willy900wonka:
Do you remember taking a deep breath and saying to yourself,"that was dumb, I'll never do THAT again. Thank God I didn't get caught". Well that's not an option with this.

As a parent, exteacher, employer, I can see the temptation to totally invade someone's privacy. But I also don't want to lower my esteem for that person / child/offspring,because of knowing what I am better off not knowing. Since the airwaves are public, any messages are fair game for any agency anyway. Why add another level of invasiveness?

You want provide moral guidance and a supportive environment, and especially TIME with those you are concerned about. If i had had that done to me I would have had the phone used by everyone I could think of as being a problem ( in my parents' eye). Instead my parents supported me and I got to go on. Truth is not the issue, molding character is. Why assail a kid with a brutal approach that takes away all indviduality?

So in closing this rant I say WTF who needs it?
[Hero CDMA General] chfields:
It's obvious you don't have any kids.....You don't realize just how stupid they are until you have to raise them.......its a parents job to raise and protect their kids. Look at the world now, perfect example of what happens when there is no supervision or responsibilty..................
[Hero CDMA General] chfields:
As of right now, my son is 18yrs old. He doesn't drink, smoke, take drugs or have sex (yet). He is a member of the Army Jrotc in high school and is in the color guard as well as the drill team. He intends to go to college and then have a career in the military. He is respectful to adults (except us LOL) gets decent grades, dresses well, speaks well and is overall a pretty good kid.

Growing up he didn't have any rights or privacy, we searched his room at our convenience and when he got a computer we installed a spy program and searched it as well. This is how I found out he went to soft core porn sites and was filming porn off the tv with his camera and downloading to his computer. We addressed the situation and it hasn't been a problem since.

How many times do we here parents say after thier kid has od'd or gotten AIDS or got pregant, etc....that they had no idea that was happening. We will never be one of those parents. As you can see, my son turned out to be a productive member of society. This is the job of a good parent!
[Hero CDMA General] seaweedopm:
This is exactly what I was thinking when I wrote my comment. There's a difference between raising your child and monitoring them. It seems that the defenders of this practice try to compare what you and I have written with the type of parents who are completely uninvolved. In actuality we are talking about the complete opposite. Educating your child about the world as it really is, allowing them to live and learn their lessons all while keeping a comfortable atmosphere at home so they can discuss their entire day should be enough to keep you far away from the "we never saw that coming" type of parents.

I will concede one thing, 5 is not a teenager but I can also say that we are constantly told he is the most polite in his class. He understand not only rules but why there are rules. He also understands his own feelings and that he's not the only one with them. I try to relate his feelings to the actions that cause them and then relate this principle to other people, such as adults as well as his friends.
[HD2 General] aLlamaWithARifle:
Basically I've noticed my HD2 becomes ever so slightly slower throughout the day until the point I just have to restart it since it's stupidly slow.

I've checked my ram usage when it's at it's slowest and it says no more then when it's at it's fastest.

How can I stop the phone from getting slower during the day and prevent me from needed to soft reset.

I had the same problem. I turned off automatic updates in the Facebook-integration (in Sense) and it improved dramatically. I still have to soft reset once in a while, but not nearly as often as before.
[Desire General] stuart.tavener:
Im new to Android, just upgraded from a Blackstone to a Desire this week. :D

Im trying to figure out how to disable the HTC `basic` lockscreen that appears, with the lower curved bar and notifications. I want to just have the gesture lock when i power on, and not have to thumb down the first lock bar to get to a second lockscreen.

how can i get rid of it ?:confused:
[Desire General] stewcp:
I'm just looking for this myself... no luck so far but if I do, I'll post my findings :)
[Desire General] DoomFragger:
You can use NoLock. Unfortunately it does what it says. It disables locking. This way, all key will wake the phone!
[Desire General] Jiia:
Bump.

I'm looking for a solution to this very same problem. NoLock won't help because it also disables the lock pattern. So how to disable lockscreen and just leave lock pattern?

Yes, I use it regularly, although on rare occasions I've noticed their system down and not accepting logins. Otherwise a useful (and even fun) application.

I have set the photo album as a widget on 1 of my homepages, and whilst it shows any pictures ive taken, it doesnt show any videos. To view the videos you have to actually go into the app, change folder and locate the videos manually.

Is there any way to get the videos to appear in the widget? or does anyone know of a better 'media' widget similar to the photo album

thanks
[HD2 General] Si6776:
Hi, I currently have an HD2, but have never really managed to get used to it, so have been sticking to my BlackBerry Storm. One of the reasons I haven't used the HD2 all that much is that I have a BlackBerry tariff with O2 (UK), with unlimited data allowance using the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS). If I were to use the HD2 with normal usage, I would be racking up quite a bill, as I would have to use O2's Mobileweb.

Is there any way that I can configure the HD2 to use BIS with O2? I would be using the same SIM card, so it's not as though I would be trying to 'steal' free internet, as I would still be paying for it under the BB contract. I just don't want to be paying additional data charges to use the HD2, while I am still paying for the BlackBerry service.
[HD2 General] ajebia:
is it possible

i have d same problem too,is it possible??
[HD2 General] juwan de leon:
hi,, is there a reg tweaks that i can make my volume, especially on playing music,more louder??? i prefer to use the original headset of my hd2 but i think its not loud enough even on the highest volume. don't worry my ears are always clean and doesn't have problem.:D:D thanks to all!!
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
Does anyone got noticeable delay in start of the call when tap contact from the call history list?

I suspect it started after latest (1.31.405.4) ROM installation and happens periodically - you just tap the contact and nothing happens (sometimes at all but sometimes it reacts after minute or so and suddenly starts to call).

There could be at least two causes:

1. No reaction on actual "tap" (hard to explain why it finally calls sometimes but I noticed that Call button could give different reactions comparing to clicks on actual contact)

2. Process that executes call is doing something in the background (freeing up memory? restarting? doing some sync?)

After it "breaks through" it works for some time seamlessly - you just touch the contact and it calls immediately but after some time (even after phone reboot) the glitch is back

NB. I uninstalled almost all apps (including beautiful Timeriffic) I've got from Android Market and prey it's not related to the Exchange Sync and apps around it... Let's see if I still have problem tomorrow.
[Legend General] lifeis:
same problem i got. any solution pls tell.

Same problem
[Legend General] noobdeagle:
it could be a memory leak or something who knows,

the phone hasnt been out for long and there may be more updates comming.

plus if its a performance problem then when android 2.2 comes out with the JIT compiler it should be faster
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
lifeis, do you have any applications (in addition to pre-installed) on your device?
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
Version 1

The more I observe situations when dialer "hangs" the more I suspect that it happens due to some synchronization. Already several times I noticed such behavior starts when "data" icon indicates some outgoing traffic but nothing comes back (no active incoming arrow). Could it be that it tries to sync contact (with Exchange? Twitter? Facebook? Gmail?) and at the OS level it sees that network is "available" (somebody here already complained about similar issues) so needs to time-out instead of skip that attempt and proceed with requested operation immediately?
[Legend General] xela:
mee too :mad:
[Legend General] lifeis:
Today i notice that when i press the contact and after i pres power button screen goes and comes and phone starts dialing. I think sync cause this. May be latest update they can solve this. I had a hero and hero did n't have problem like that.
[Legend General] 3djon:
Dialer lag present on my device aswell. its not often and oddly happens when no apps are running in background. I think it conflicts with whatever sync services may be syncing at the time one tries to make a call

Sent from my HTC Legend using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Legend General] petertakov:
Same with mine. There is also a lag when I press the "Sync All' immediately after a WiFi connection is established.

Hope they fix this as it is quite annoying. And also make Maps 4 "officially" available to Legend.
[Legend General] superlars:
Same problem

I started after updating the legend software!

Anyone have a solution?

Is it possible to go back to earlier software?:(
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
HTC answer

Somewhat expected suggestion:

Thank you for contacting us. About the problem that you have mentioned t us, I can gladly help you wit that: Note: Please ensure to backup any important data first. Method 1: 1. From the home screen, press Menu 2. Select Settings 3. Select Privacy 4. Select Factory Data Reset 5. If prompted, enter the unlock pattern. 6. Tap Reset Phone 7. Tap Erase Everything 8. The phone will reboot to factory settings Method 2: 1. Power device off (Open battery cover on bottom of the handset the close it again) 2. Press and hold the Volume Down button 3. Briefly press the Power button. 4. Continue pressing the Volume Down button until you see a white screen with three skateboarding androids at the bottom. 5. Release the Volume button 6. Press Volume Down to highlight CLEAR STORAGE 7. Press Power button 8. Press Volume Up to confirm 9. Once the Factory Reset has completed the phone will reboot automatically I trust that this resolve's your query, please do not hesitate to contact us again if required. Thank you for contacting HTC.

Does anyone willing to try? Not sure that I'm ready to spend another half a day restoring all settings and configurations after factory reset (also suspect that chances to succeed are not too high)...
[Legend General] Knight77:
Ah c'mon! that's like "hey do you have a problem with one application in windows? Ok that's the solution: go to ms dos and then type "format c:\"....

Ridiculus. HTC should just understand what's going on and release an update!
[Legend General] petertakov:
The reset actually works. I have not re-installed all of the applications i had before and did not use the backup file to restore the phone in its previous state so the dissappearence of the lag might be due to some setting being restored to default, but whatever the reason, the legend is now much faster.
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
Factory reset

Have you also installed latest ROM after factory reset?
[Legend General] petertakov:
Actually the update was still there after the reset - I didn't have to update again.
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
More observations

Interesting observations:

You try to call - dialer hangs

If you return to home screen you see that widget time is correct while status string on the top shows "outdated" time

If you try to browse some web page it connects and you see the content - I got feeling that this is some kind of "break thorough" since after that -->

Time at the status string gets updated

Almost immediately after that phone starts calling
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
Reset

Gave up and did factory reset - took couple of hours to restore it to the wanted state. Let's see if that solves the problem or I get issue back after returning configuration to the desired state.

Last observation I did before reset: problem disappears (or minimizes?) if I keep WiFi off - especially if Legend sees some network around but isn't connected. The same applies if it unsuccessfully tries to connect to some faulty router - most probably dialer lag starts after that...
[Legend General] simonq:
Hi everybody,

Factory reset helped here. I didn't make lots of tests but after 3 days of using I didn't notice the lag.

Hi everyone,

I had the same problem and the factory reset helped me,too.

I believe that either the rom update or one of the applications I have installed was causing the problem.

Now I will begin re-installing all the applications I had before and see if the problem will reappear again.
[Legend General] petertakov:
It appears that storing (remembering) wifi networks slows down connecting to any of them when present. When I only have one network remembered connecting to it is almost instant, while as soon as I remember other network setting, connecting to same network is much slower, even if is the only one present.
[Legend General] ropi313:
It happened to me too. I did a factory reset, and that seems to have solved the problem for me.
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
HTC is interested

Does anyone still having same problem? It seems that HTC wants such a phone at their lab now but I hardresetted the device couple of weeks ago...
[Legend General] Sebastian768:
I think it started after the update, but then I got my Legend right before the update came so I have little pre-update time with ut...

But IT is ANNOYING because sometimes I can't call at all and have to reboot.
[Legend General] gix_0:
I have a HTC Legend with 1.31.405.4 ROM and i never noticed any lag... so it may be some other reason...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wilbur-force:
ok.... about 6 weeks to go till i get an upgrade on my phone from T-Mobile UK .... where do people go from a TP ??

Do I go for the HD2 and stick with WM ?

Do I go for the Desire and move to Android ?

Either way Im going to miss the hardware keyboard but I cant see any HTCs coming soon with a hardware keyboard ..... :mad:

what do people think is the logical 'upgrade' from a TP these days ???

Id start a poll if I knew how :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Armazia:
depends on what you want;

If you want a really personal phone, choose the desire(Android)

If you still wanna mess with your phone, choose the HD2(Windows Mobile)

The HD2 has a bigger screen, the typing is soo nice on such a big screen!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mputtr:
I'm sticking it until HTC or some other company comes out with a smartphone and a vertical slider for a full keyboard with a real hardware upgrade (rather than the partial upgrade that is the Touch Pro 2)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wilbur-force:
yep ... i think i would miss the HW keyboard .... but the only rumours of HTCs with keyboards are the TP3 which seems underpowered :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mecha2142:
I'd go with the Desire. You get an AMOLED display, which has much sharper colors than that of the HD2, and it uses much less battery.

Furthermore, you're guaranteed firmware updates for Android for quite some time. Windows Mobile 6.5, on the other hand, is dead in the water, unless you want to switch to the less functional Windows Phone 7 firmware. Even then, you miss out on the ability to customize your device in the first place.

On top of that, the Desire also has a much higher resell value. Thanks to T-Mobile, you won't get much more than $400-450 USD for an HD2 online should you decide to sell it. The Desire, on the other hand, is priced just like every other smartphone on the market, meaning you'll get a considerably larger sum should you decide to sell it some time in the future. In comparison to the HD2, Desire prices online are currently hovering around the $600 USD mark.

[Desire Accessories] phrozen_lad:
seen some nice cases for the N1, will they fit the desire or are there some buttons that wont align properly??

thanks :)
[Desire Accessories] str355:
the gel cases with the red nexus one on the back (< £3) fit the desire. you can use the power and volume buttons through the case, everything else can be used if you line the holes up when you fit it.

thats the only one i've tried, but have now ordered one made for the desire to replace it.
[Desire Accessories] phrozen_lad:
thanks for the reply mate,

was looking at this:

which is made by the same people as the gel cases..thought id ask first before spending around £15!!

[Desire Accessories] beaker656:
I bought similar from ebay, but for a lot less than the one your looking at, shop around.

Only thing I experienced is that due to the Desire having a "chin" it stretches the case to make a very tight fit (hey it's silicone so it gives) and this only shows in that the power switch recess in the cover is slightly offset from the handset. Doesn't hamper anything though
[Desire Accessories] phrozen_lad:

First, I have to thank the XDA forums helping me come over from my long WinMo background. Mad Props...

Being new to Android and my nexus one, I'm feeling the ROM flashing bug and want to try out a couple of different ROMS but don't want to have to add all of my accounts each time since I use crazy long, nearly impossible to type, passwords.

Is there some way to restore some of the configuration of my N1 between different ROM flashes?

Sorry if this has been covered, but I can't find it. It looks like the data is backed up in my nandroid backups, but I can't seem to find out how to only restore configuration.

Thanks

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Royan:
Take a look at Titanium Backup.

It works really well.

You need to be rooted and superuser in order to use it.

To find out more about adding superuser to a stock ROM, check out this thread at Modaco.

Edit:

Nandroid backups are really "just" disk images afaik.

There's no way that I know of to extract information from them.
