My vote goes to S2U2 as well. It's awesome and does pretty much everything a screen lock should and way, way more.

PocketShield is nice but you have to pay for it and if not you ocassionally get an annoying screen when you go to unlock that says some crap like "blah blah puchase this product blah this screen will go awya in 8 seconds".
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] forster:
Lockdevice v1.6 is reccomended byJackos. I allso looking for one lock app but never find one.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] fcasini:
Hellò, I have just got that phone but some apps doesn't seems to work, perhaps because developed for touch screen phone.

I would like to use app like SkTool but when installing i get an error message having found a smartphone device.

Also, what version of TomTom do I need to buy? On site I haven't found anything for snap,

Again, a good audio player?

Resco explorer does work on non touch devide?

thanks to all for the appreciated answer to my question.

bye

[Dash 3G, Snap General] Johnny_BV:
SKTools

Search and find on the internet " SKTools standard v3.3.1.You'll find on many web site. Works like a charm for me.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Jalom:
Hi,

I do not use Resdco Explorer, but total commander smartphone edition works fine for me.

As for TT, you need to look for the qvga version. You will get some bugs, it is not optimized for the device, but it still works.

SK Tools lite (free) works on mine.
[Nexus One Accessories] Geo411m:
This may be a stupid question but do cases with magnetic closures mess up the GPS of a nexus one in anyway? I remember reading something to that effect with the G1 a few years ago but am unsure if it's true or not.
[Nexus One Accessories] willverduzco:
It shouldn't affect the GPS itself... It will (obviously) affect the compass though, so perhaps the orientation may be misreported. GPS works on satellite signals, not geomagnetic forces.
[Nexus One Accessories] Geo411m:
Thanks for the answer.
[Nexus One Accessories] arimus:
it might effect the camera, i do not have a case for my Nexus (use holster) but I had a case with a magnet clasp on the cover that effected the camera on my Nokia N97, but with the fone in a case how are you going to use the GPS ?
[Nexus One Accessories] willverduzco:
Good point. I didn't think of that. The camera in the nexus one, as in most modern phones, uses a piezo ceramic motor for its autofocus mechanism. While not exactly working in a similar manner to standard electromagnetic motors, they are still influenced by the magnetic field. That said, you're not going to use the GPS or camera while the phone is in the holster, and the effects should be limited to that situation.

Oh, and if it's any comfort, I work with fMRI using moderately high field strength (3T). I have walked in the room with my phone before, and even though it is tugging to the scanner in my pocket, it still works completely fine today. A typical pocket magnet is 2-4 orders of magnitude weaker (1/100 - 1/10000 the strength). It will not damage anything in the phone permanently. Either that, or I have been extremely lucky.
[Nexus One Accessories] Geo411m:
Thanks for the answers. I ended up going with this Seidio Innocase Case and I couldn't be happier. No magnets to ruin your phone in this case :p
[Nexus One Accessories] ATnTdude:
magnets can also screw with the capacitive touch screen.
[Nexus One Accessories] rotohammer:
Search for my post where I made a desk and a car mount using super strong hard drive magnets. I've been using it all day every day, no effects on anything except the compass when attach to the mount. Screen, touchscreen, camera, gps, totally unaffected. Compass still works fine when not mounted.
[Droid Eris Android Development] chaoss13:
I'm noticing an issue as I try many of the ROMs out there. (Great job, everyone, BTW)

When I use SetCPU on most ROMs the speeds tend to vary greatly. But it seems that I only found one ROM which the speeds work right for my phone, which is Spencer Moore's Aloysious series. When I try other ROMs, they're fine until I OC them.

I'm using SetCPU and some very modest profiles. Not trying to push my luck. Any advice on better OC methods that won't lock me up so I can try more ROMs? Or could I be doing something very wrong?

Thanks in advance, and again, great work Devs! You're all very much appreciated.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sheen160:
What do you have the speed set to?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
i've seen some people say they can't run 768 but run fine at 787 so its not always a lower is better issue. You got to just play around with them to see what works best with your phone.

[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] rorrism:
Hi,

I have been having all sorts of trouble with my XDA guide, I've used numerous ROMS and even tried updating the radio but to no avail. Does anyone have a stock ROM which I can flash before returning it please?

Regards,

[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] FlyingSimpson:
Try the O2 Internet Page

In Germany O2 has the Rom on the Internet, so use this one or search for the UK one on the UK Page from O2.
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] rorrism:
Thanks, I'll give that a try

I couldn't manage to change the language in the german ROM to English, but I sent it back anyway, I'll see how I get on.

I came accross registry keys which have softAP enable/disable keys. I searched 'softAP' wothout any results so hasitate, but new thread.

Does it work? Has anybody tried it? Can it be run on 11n mode? I want to enable it and try if it doesn't cause irrecoverable harm to the device,
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I found the 2 keys with that value ("enable softAP"), and changed them both from "0" to "1", then soft-reset. I see no change in phone behavior on or off wifi, and no new options showing in settings or comm manager, so I don't know what they're supposed to do. No apparent issues in phone operation, etc.

F.....!!! HELP !!! F......!!!

Hi!

I just tried to installed the new Beta of Logmein (apk in another Thread). Old Beta worked perfectly, tried installing the new beta (install akp with EStrong Explorer)

-> Phone rebooted

now it says "no Simcard in Phone" and offers emergency call only.....

What to do?!?!?!? Please help me!

Can i skip that screen to get into the normal Interface and maybe try to uninstall the new Logmein Beta?

Can i uninstall it form pc

If i try to repair phone from pc, are my applications and settings lost???

Thanks for your answers!!!!

desperately,

Bax

:mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] Mobzter:
Hmm have you tried restartin it? Worse comes to worse maybe link pc to phone and jus take out the logmein folder and see what happenz?

Hope it helps!!

Hi!

Thank you for your reply!

yes, restarting was the first try ....

Problem is, i thought i could update/repair firmware, BUT: PC-Companion tells me to pull down the taskbar to enable usb ...

well i only see the clock and the emergency call symbol and cannot pull down anything ...

Only key that works is long pressing power - pop up appears flight mode / silent / power off

No menu, no volume, but i see all the autostarting apps putting their status messages into status bar ....

So system is working, but just not letting me in ...

(And SE Support says: out of office hours ;( )

Bax
[XPERIA X10 General] Baxxx:
Ill now try with SEUS instead of Companion ....
[XPERIA X10 General] Baxxx:
SEUS recognizes Phone, now trying to (re)install firmware ..

Well, losing all Data, but made a Backup 2 Weeks ago ...

Hope i will get back all Apps (first time starting Market will be critical)

Bax

:mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] Baxxx:
Reinstalled Firmware (probably 1.0.14. as its an Austrian provider locked phone), but

Still no simcard detected ...

so ill have to try to crosscheck (xperia with another sim and sim with another phone)

Something is defective ...

But what?

grrr

Bax
[XPERIA X10 General] Baxxx:
So, at home i swapped Sim Cards and guess what ....

Sim is dead

(so reinstalling made no sense at all)

Interresting detail is that the Simcard was killed when installing Logmein Beta ....

But that must be pure coincidence???

Now ill start settung up my phone again .... :(

Greetungs

[Hero CDMA General] dbldown768:
While most of you are probably using the 2.1 flavor of android, I'm stuck on 1.5. This is only due to the fact the my home link to cell phone cannot connect through bluetooth with any of the 2.1 roms I have tried. So I was looking for opinions on 1.5 roms. Like any overclocking? themes? JIT? whatever. Right now I'm just on stock 1.5.
[Hero CDMA General] sierpinski13:
There is no overclocking of JIT on 1.5 roms, but they are plenty fast. gbhil's custom .31 Gumbo kernel makes any rom super fast. Try pairing it with Fresh 1.1 or Gumbo 1.5c or Cupcake or whatever, but it will be fast. Even if you are stuck on 1.5, rooting is still a good thing and there are plenty of options to make your Hero faster.
[HD2 General] mobiler:
Was wondering how does each one keeps his settings and configuration between changing ROMS. Including keeping the Call history, SMS history etc...

I have tried Sashimi once but was overwhelmed with the settings and learning curve and decided to neglect it. I use my HD2 as a business tool and don't have hours to spend each time on configuring between ROMs.
[HD2 General] de Wolfe:
Well, if you see your HD2 as a "business tool" imo it would be the best solution to decide for one ROM and keep it for a while... ;)

I use a mixture of Sashimi, Outlook, MyPhone and CeRegEditor. With Sashimi I backup my mail-account-setup, with MS MyPhone I backup my SMS and WWW-bookmarks, with Outlook (of course) I "backup" my appointments and contacts, with CeRegEditor I backup my app-registration-info out of the registry that I do not always have to re-activate my apps and type in serials etc.

That does it for me. I don't like full-backup-solutions like Sprite or SPB Backup.

Cheers
[HD2 General] jan-willem3:
spb backup for my mail,contacts and text messages.

And at last sashimi to install al my programs quickly.

And my own created cab with registery entries so I can quickly change everthing.
[HD2 General] MAMeingast:
Pretty much EXACTLY what I do as well... :D
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
I dont simple, the only thing i have backed up is my memory card on the pc and contacts, calender in myphone that's it I like to change the settings differently on ROM's
[HD2 General] mischgin:
Sashimi for Mail-Config, applications, registry-tweaks

MyPhone for text messages, bookmarks and tasks

Sashimi changed my life ;)
[HD2 General] ephestione:
I'm with mischgin regarding sashimi.

It alone can manage most of the things some of you do with 5 different apps ;)

Cab autoinstall, either on internal memory or SD (you chose which goes where), registry key importing (export with total commander, sashimi will reimport back), single file copying (mirroring the root folder structure), XML provisioning for wifi and mail accounts via makisu.

This is what I use, and on top of that I only need pimbackup to restore everything else which is PIM related.

I don't use the EXE and CERT folders of SAHIMI (yet), but I can pretty much restore *everything* automatically.

The only things I don't, is because I don't knows their registry entries in order to export them (for instance, everything you change from under manila settings :()
[HD2 General] L22EEW:
SPB backup without a doubt!
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I dont use any kind of backup.

I use a rom that uses the autoinstall folder,

i created a cab of my email settings using makisu (sashimi's little brother),

and a cab of my registry tweaks(including the home quicklinks), which i update as and when i find more tweaks,

and i sync with Outlook on the pc for contacts.

Mail gets restored because my phone doesnt delete it off the server, so its still there next time you send/recieve, (unless the PC has checked them in the meantime, of course, in which case they are on the PC, and subsequently in the outlook email account on teh phone)

I dont back up txt's, i've never understood why anyone keeps them, to me its the same as recording every phone call and keeping the recordings, , why???

From the start of teh hard reset to being completely set up and synched, takes about 20 minutes. (Including teh time for the OS and apps to instal)

EDIT - oh, and lots of apps dont need to be reinstalled if you plan on using them from the sd card.

Just create a link to the executable and many of them still work.

I hard code a quicklink to things like that into my quicklinks reg cab.
[HD2 General] smeddy:
I really really really really really really want a quick easy way of restoring my email settings:)

And as most programs don't really need installing on each ROM change I wish it was easy to tell them to store Application data on the storage card and for Cookie's tab to automatically restore icons by saving them to the Storage card (as in, the actual icon files, not just the standard backup). CorePlayer, TomTom, AiReader and GRemote are examples of programs that don't really need reinstalling.
[HD2 General] KaH_ACT:
ditti, currently doing same but if I found something to back up email config, facebook setting and a couple of others, it would be good
[HD2 General] kerm:
what i usually do is auto backup with NRGZ's systems export backup tool and xda uc. Also copy the progam files folder which the apps are installed on the phone and if you wantthe start menu folder in windows which has all the shortcuts etc (saves time doing it one by one).

All you have to do is just copy and past those 2 folders back in the correct places after you flash. Everythings back to how it was. Also use PIM for contacts and sms. Takes no longer than 5-10 mins to get it exactly how i want

[EVO 4G Accessories] Fixter:
I recommend waiting for the Otterbox Cases, they are throwing out a line of their 3 cases: Impact, Defender and Commutter. In the mean time. Get a silicone case from Sprint. Those are perfect until you wait for the Otterbox. :D

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiia:
I've been having the same kind of bug in two different applications now in my Desire. I can't seem to find anyone with a similar problem and the HTC support couldn't help me at all.

1. I got an SMS from my friend, and suddenly the smilie in the message wasn't the regular orange face. Instead it was a green android. At the same moment all the previous smilies turned into text and my Messages application's FPS got extremely low. I rebooted and then did a factory reset on my phone leaving no messages in it, but the FPS in the Messages application is still horrible and scrolling is very hard. Also now all of the smilies are in plain text, no pictures anymore.

2. Today I went to my favourites category in the People program. I wanted to remove a contact so I pressed the contact long and selected "delete contact". The contact didn't get deleted but instead the favourites category turned as slow as the Messaging program is. If I go back to the regular groups window the FPS is good as well as in any other category like co-workers. The FPS gets slow when I go to the favourites folder. I got the contact deleted by pressing menu and selecting "delete contacts" but the problem still occurs. Reboot nor factory reset won't work.

-----

I just flashed my phone again with the 1.21 ROM and the problem presisted. Where could the problem be? Especially the slow Messaging application is very annoying.

After reflashing my phone I tried the application with no messages in it and it was still slow. I then restored my old messages.

-----

The favourites category started working normally after I removed all contacts and restored them back again.

EDIT: NVM, the category got slow again after I added the contacts back in the category.

-----

When I go into a message thread or go back to the main tree the horizontal scrolling animation is fast. Only the vertical scrolling is slow.
[HD2 General] mobiler:
Ok I checked this on the different HD2 devices and seen it happen at least a couple of times or more on each.

Suddenly when I look at the home screen it shows me as if I am in AFRICA! Sometimes once it showed me i'm in India. A couple of days ago I woke up and what do you know, I am in Los Angeles. LOL.

And all that happened from the same city I live in and didn't travel any other country. What the hell is that ?

[HTC Excalibur] Captainkb1222:
I just installed the EVO 6.5 ROM, and every time I hit the center button it launches the celetask application. This needs to be fixed in my phone for it to be usable. Any ideas how to fix it? I believe the eT9 file is in the ROM files when installed. The D-pad works; up, dn, left, and right, but when you press it it launches the celetask program? Very annoying!

I posted this thread in the EVO thread posts, not sure how to delete it out of there, because I don't think it has anything to do with the ROM, it’s just a key mapping issue, or a registry problem?

Any help would be great,

Thanks,

Captain
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Hard-reset first as may be a bad flash since not noted by other users.

Nope hard reset didn't fix it. Center D-pad button is still launching celetask.

EDIT TITLE: Not only chromatic abbrevation!

Hi. I did some 'shooting' today with my HD2 and saw the purple tint in ex green colors vs blue sky. You can also see the purple tint on grey surfaces too, aso..

_Some_ of the purple colors is simply not going to be fixed, because its something called chromatic abbreviation and thats an optic issue. But im also thinking its an software issue that HTC have not seen yet. Manual whitebalancing is often or always better than the auto-setting in HD2. And one other thing.. If your picture is underexposed, you have even more pink tinting.

As mentioned. If you try set the whitebalance yourself, you may get by the pink issue in almost every picture. 2 out of 10 pics is now 'normal' and i have minor/none editing in photoshop. Maybe every picture is good when picture are prop whitebalanced and not underexposed.

Excuse my english, im norwegian.. :-)
[HD2 General] epos85:
I also think some of the tweaks here are responsible for the pink tint. Earlier photos from before tweaking have no pink tint. Someone running a ''clean'' rom here to confirm? Ive only applied some tweaks from '[REF] *Leo Hints, Tips and Registry Tweaks* - Updated 14th May 2010.' and 'Boost performance tips (All ROMS) -NEW updates 11/2/10'.

Maybe turning camera tweaks back to default is going to fix this..?.. I have no time for hard-reset, so if anyone schedule a hard-reset and having the tint problem.. Please take before/after photos.
[HD2 General] ephestione:
for what it's worth, I had the pink stain practically on every past rom that I used.

The current rom I use, based on 2.13 (and I just reinstall everything system related through sashimi, so it's actually the same config with different rom) doesn't show this problem, being the camera settings the same... and I'm not at all displeased ;)

When installing teeter via adb, I noticed the -s switch. I haven't tried it, but will that work without root?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
I would imagine a ext partition would be needed for this as well though huh?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Monban:
I think this feature was included for use in Android 2.2 (Froyo) where apps2sd will be possible without root.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
That makes sense. Now, when Froyo is released, and if apps2sd is inherent, will the menu have the option to properly partition people's SD cards? A lot of people who are savvy will freak out if they find out "OMG I'M GONNA LOOSE ALL MY HELLO KITTY PICS IF I PARTITION THE SD CARD!!!".
[myTouch 3G Slide General] M..N:
I believe with app2sd on froyo it installs in the fat32, and does not work with partitions
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Oh, interesting, then it should be a breeze.

Oh, and I just tried to do it, but adb is telling me -s is an invalid option... weird.
