ive heard of a way to do it but i just cant find a code. ive heard there was a way to create new live folders but it just seems like top secret information. there was someone whom tried this and released an app called groupie, but it doesnt even work. i have no experience with programming whatsoever, but am willing to research and try doing this myself. Im hoping someone can beat me to the punch tho. Id like to be able to create live folders for different contact groups. why has android been denying us the ability to do this? Surely there can be a simple longpress option added for creating a live folder. Sheesh...
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
1 Long-press on your home screen (or push +).

2 Shortcut

3 Direct dial (or Direct message, whatever you want).

4 Choose a person.

5 (repeat steps 1-4 until you have all the contacts you want)

6 Long-press on your home screen (or push +)

7 Folder

8 New folder (a new folder will appear on your screen)

If you tap the folder to open it, long-press along the top bar (where the name of it is - "Folder") and you can rename the folder to WHATEVER you want.

9 Drag the contacts (made in steps 1-5) to the folder, the same way you'd drag them to another screen. Long-press them, and drop them onto the folder.

10 Profit
[Droid Eris Android Development] iflip:
that's not what I'm talking about. I know about that. im referring to list view that live folders have. but since im not a dev and wont be able to create something like that w/ time n patience, i found folder organizer to be pretty helpful.
[Palm Treo 750] anthonyzm:
Hi all,

I have read alot of your articles to update to WM 6.5. I have a Palm Treo 750I downloaded the CeetahUnlocker.exe and the Cheeimg.nbh. I ran the CeetahUnlocker.exe and clicked on the "Flash SPL" which after my second try worked fine. My phone boots with the Palm logo and not the AT&T logo it initially had. The other thing when I hold the media key and do a soft reset the phone enters the Bootloader program, therefore I think the "Flash SPL" went okay. The problem I am having is that the second step "Unlock Radio" does not work that is a ERROR message happens after the phone goes into the Bootloader mode. Can you guys tell me If my phone was unlocked to use my local carrier do I have to unlock the radio ect. Please help as this is becoming very fustrating.

thank you in advance

Anthony

Hi, u just need to use the Athena_unlocker at that point to unlock ur carrier and thats it
[Palm Treo 750] anthonyzm:
I bought my phone unlock so do I still need to do this. Their are 2 Carrier in my country and I can use the simm card of anyone of them...
[Palm Treo 750] startngate:
If your phone was unlocked, then you don't need to do it again. Flashing ROMs using Hard SPL will not change its status in that regard.
[Palm Treo 750] anthonyzm:
Can you tell me then the steps for updtaing to WM 6.5 please
[Palm Treo 750] startngate:
Assuming you have correctly run the HardSPL, there are many threads in this section that describe how to flash a ROM, so there's no reason to re-hash the instructions yet again here.

Pick your preferred version of WM6.5 (keeping in mind they all still have major bugs) and flash it. If you don't like it, then keep trying until you find one you like.

The WM6.1 ROM is the most stable and bug free however, just as an FYI. The WM6.5 ROMs are fun to play with, but I wouldn't recommend them as a permanent install for most people unless the known bugs don't affect functions you regularly use.

I started this thread:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=656180 ,

but as previous thread hav a bit confusing name I start new one and the old could be removed by admin please. ...

Appointment created on Android phone will sync to Google Calendar, but not from GCal to Outlook.

Only difference between the appointment created in GCalendar directly and in Phone is the fact that Phone created appointment show myself as a guest in Google Calendar. When I remove myself as a guest, appointment will sync to outlook.

Calendars in Outlook, Google Calendar and Android phone are named as "myname"@gmail.com.

Appointments created in Outlook will sync to the phone just fine.

In the phone I have enabled only one calendar "myfirstname.mylastname@gmail.com"

phone is HTC Hero, tried different 2.0 ROMs (NeoRoM v2.1, Villain 5.0, Villain 6.1, Sense Hero 2.1)

Sync for Outlook is Google Calendar Sync 0.9.3.5.

Sync method "two way"

there is those threads on other forums:

http://code.google.com/p/android/is...nc&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=46853295c6cb9609&hl=en

this is what I discovered so far:

when looking into my phone calendar appointments, in 1.6 roms , the creator of the appointment will be marked as "firstname.lastname@gmail.com"

in 2.0 roms, the appointment in my phone show creator of the appointment " Firstname Lastname". so it will take this information probably form Gmail Account or Phone other settings, as calendar settings in Gmail will not show my First name and Last name in capital letters. 1.6 uses mail address as identifiyng "owner" of the appointment.

so seems this is communication issue between 2.0 and Calendar app.

Does anybody have any ideas how to try to track this problem any further?

as you see from other threads this in not only my issue with 2.0 roms, so it cant be phone related ....
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manager2a:
well... today I had little bit of testing and now turnes out that my opinion regarding this but wasnt 100% accurate.

when creating appointment in the phone with 2.x ROM, the phone register owner of the appointment with normal way. That means "firstname.lastname@gmail.com".

when information is sent to Gmail account in the Google Server, the server will receive infromation with appointment owner registered "My Google Account First and Last name".

When I look this appointment in my phone - everything is ok, even after new sync.

When I look this appointment in the server - owner name has changed.

When I reset my phone, and reinstall old rom (1.x) and resync calendar with Google, I will get this appointment synced to the phone with changed owner (my google account firstname and last name)

So after reinstall and after resync, appointments created previously with old 1.x are ok with my gmail address marked as owner.

appointmens created with 2.x, having owner marked my First name and Last name that I registered for Gmail.

is there any way to catch information that phone will send to the Google server to try to find a difference in the information?

Okay, this may or may not be in the correct forum, but it's a question. I think the icons are horribly ugly, especially the camera. I know it's not quite rooted yet and it's not super high up on everyone's list, but would anyone be able to help me out with getting better looking stock Android 2.1 icons on there or maybe make an icon pack that replaces the ones on there with 2.1 stock icons? Thanks in advance.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Condo20t:
I tried Better Cut with mine and the stock 2.0 icon pack. The icons are low res and look kind of bad on the large Evo screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
With the size of the Evo screen you will really want to get More Icons. Trust me on this, it is perfect for this phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orris:
I've never heard of BetterCut, but it seems like it won't work. My girlfriend has a Nexus and those icons are very classy and would work very well with the Evo, I think. And I just want to replace them completely, not have extra.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmwguy:
So, I love my hero but I hate the laggyness. I recently installed Fresh rom 2.1.2 and overall im very happy with it. Loving the wireless tether and the LWP. I still would like it to be a bit more snappy however. When I look into roms that overclock the processor like Fresh Toast it appears as though I have to ditch my camera. Can somebody tell me why this is? Is the camera just not stable at the faster speeds? Are there any roms with overclocking that will allow me to keep my camera? Im loving all the features of Fresh 2.1.2 so i dont want any drastic changes from that other than faster speed. Any input?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Guy71:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centran:
They are all OK. There are different ones because even though we all have the same phone not every processor is exactly the same. This is true for any computer chip. Therefore for a few unlucky people they can not OC to the fullest.

Ok, not sure this is the best place for this thread, but, here it goes.

I'm one of the masses leaving the iphone for an Evo. So I have zero experience on any Android system.

And I realize that this is a very subjective question to ask, but....

What are the MUST HAVE apps?? I do plan to root the phone once the instructions are released, in case that helps.

Thanks for any advice for this Android noob.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chuckhriczko:
Well here's my list of must haves:

Astro or any other file manager

Handcent if you want a different SMS app (I dont but many like it)

Google Voice (assuming you have a GV account)

Mint.com if you have a mint.com account

Facebook

Facebook Sync (syncs your FB contact pics with your phone contacts)

Twitter

Mixzing (music player)

Shazam or Soundhound (Midomi)

eBuddy IM

Hmm That's all I can think of right off the top of my head.

[HD2 General] gmatriix:
Hello all,

I loved my HTC when I first bought it but in my excitement a week later dropped it and crack the screen all to crap...since I have recieved a replacement because I bought the insurance....

The Problem:

My programs don't want to work right. (worked fine on original)

I can receive a MMS or video message anymore ????

Locking up on programs.....

I don't know what wrong with this one...I check the rom version and I have the latest one...I think...is this right?

2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE (whatever that means)

Is the late rom total crap or what...should I reset and start over???

Any Ideas??:confused:
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Yes, I would hard-reset right from the start, before you add or try anything else. That often clears up odd behavior on a fresh ROM, and it's always a good idea to do one at that time anyway to prevent the same. If it still doesn't work right then, let us know and we'll troubleshoot from there. Your symptoms as described don't point to any single source.

And yes, that is the latest official ROM you have on there ;)
[HD2 General] stim141:
What type of phone did you get under insurance - refurbished or brand new in the box? Just curious what they are sending.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
They are sending new phones not in the original box. At least that is what I received about a month ago... You get the phone without the battery, cover or cables, books, box, etc..

I just got htc hd2 replacement right now, and I noticed that it has the same problem my old phone had since I upgraded it to 2.13.531.1 which is the glitchy and jerky scrolling. ( this new, or refurbished, phone has also 2.13.531.1)...this rom really sucks.

Process "0" is killing my EVO's battery. For those of you with Root, can you comment on battery life (specifically if you've replaced the OS with an AOSP 2.1 or SDK 2.2 build?)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeykrim:
usually associated with a PID (Process ID), like the number 0, is a process name or path to the process. can you provide more info, like the process name/path which is associated to PID 0? how do you know it is killing your battery life? does it have a constantly high CPU % utilization? where are you viewing the information/what app are you using to determine this?

i dont have root, but im sure those who do can comment. also with root access they can experiment to resolve the issue, my first instinct would be to kill the process if it is indeed run away.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maejrep:
The "0" you see in the battery stats app (*#*#4636#*#*, if memory serves correctly?) on that one particular spinner option is NOT really PID 0 causing this.. It's a bug in the app, and it can't handle whatever info it gets. You can tell this by trying to click the button: the app crashes.

In the "Partial wake usage" option, you'll see what's keeping your phone awake and draining its battery. For me, it was the Calendar app. I turned off syncing, and that let the phone go to sleep immediately. Once I found out it was the calendar app, I disabled Calendar syncing, and turned the rest of sync back on, and now I get much better battery life (and the phone sleeps).

You can do that without rooting, btw.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmaak:
I went to *#*#4636#*#*. I don't see any "Partial wake usage" option. Where can I find this? It seems like very useful info.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblueshock:
I have tried hand full of Sense builds, and Cyanogens. The original reason I rooted my phone when it came out was for Wireless Tethering and that's it, but then I was curious. Then the flashing phase came about.

For the most part battery life is better when you're rooted because the Developers on this forum are awesome! HTC phones especially are worked on more than any other brand with special scripts and kernels to help with battery life.

Mostly everyone I've come across with a non-rooted evo (co-workers, friends, random run-ins) all complain about battery life, sometimes because they have tons of stuff install and don't know what's causing wake-locks.

When HTC released their #15 kernel I think it was, it was the first kernel that I believe had almost up to par battery life with the custom kernels.

Edit: I have to admit though I haven't been on any 2.1 or 2.2 builds at all in a long time (since last year). But it does take a couple of software releases before battery life is improved, whether on HTC end or Custom Rom builders ends
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquallLHeart:

I could get no more than about 16 hours on a Sense rom (which is more than adequate, btw). But I frequently average about 22+ on AOSP roms. This is with my many tweaks (using set CPU, custom kernel, turning off various things). But I'm not doing anything drastic, like turning off data or not syncing everything. 3G is on every minute of every day, I sync Gmail, calendar, and contacts.

I think the biggest killer of battery life for many people is gchat. Most people don't even realize they're connected to it all day long. There are two settings for making sure you're not logged into it at boot, too.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpt.Curry:
I know what you guys are thinking, this is just another nexus one vs htc desire. I know there are tones and tones of videos and threads out there. I've gone through bost them. Reading thread after thread. Advantage after disadvantage. I'm ditching my hd2 for one of these phones. I'm getting both for around the same price. And I still can't decide. They're both so tempting and so alike. I've read and watched nearly every video and web page out there. But I can't make my mind. I love the nexus one for the support but love the desire for the extra homescreens and the sense ui. Which I know can be ported onto the nexus. SO I'M AT A STALEMATE. PLEASE HELP ME MAKE UP MY MIND BEFORE I GO CRAZY.

thanks:D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izmar:
Why did you say HD2 in the title?

I didn't even bother reading your post and replied so here's my edit.

Nexus one. It will receive updates first, before most every phone. That is one of the only advantages in my opinion. Style too, but that's personal opinion.

I also enjoy the touch sensitive buttons, as they really complete the touch experience.

And, like you said, desire ROMs can be ported to the Nexus.

Also, many, many of us, including myself use third party launchers. I use LauncherPro, because it is extremely smooth. There are several other launchers out there too that allow you to have more than 3 homescreens. For example, helix launcher.

And as for sense. Ya, it's okay. It looks nice, but honestly I had a Euro Hero, and now being on a Nexus, enjoy Vanilla much more.

And as for the sense only widgets, the only one I miss is the music widget. However, I should say MISSED because I've installed the music player widgets offered here in the Applications forum, and they are gorgeous, so much better than sense widgets.

I had no need for twitter, or facebook or friendstream. I have enough online social **** going on when I use my computer, I don't need to be stalked by my own profiles.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpt.Curry:
sorry honest mistake
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpt.Curry:
Thanks a lot for the reply, kinda made up my mind. The nexus one is extremely cutomizable compared to the desire. So whatever you can do in the desire you can definetely do on the nexus and go even further

I have a theory: if you go onto X forum and ask if you should get an X or a Y, chances are that the answer will be X. If you go onto a Y forum and ask the same question, most suggestions will be for a Y.

At some point, you need to weigh the capabilities and benefits of each and make up your own mind. ;)

This app is android specific, but just keeping the android market healthy so that it is more attractive for devs, so we get better apps is always a good thing. Also the apps are stupid cheap, so it is kinda hard to say you do not have that money with the expensive phone you are using.

Whether they use the same APK or not has no bearing on the fact that the owner/creator is requesting it to be removed from the roms with a valid explanation, and that's the ONLY thing that matters... Is it so hard to link to the setcpu thread in a rom thread and give the guy the credit he deserves and the possibility of making a measly $2 for his hard work if someone chooses to donate and not just download?

god forbid someone feels abused and changes a service nobody is entitled to, to begin with, how selfish of him... Sheesh

The issue is this: The dev wants people to make a choice of whether or not to buy the donate version in the market. If the free version is included in /system/app (
