:eek:

Look how fast that interface is.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mark99uk:
The problem is, thats not just launcher pro its had the modaco RAM hack to move data to NAND. To do that you need root, and when the memory fills up the phone crashes.

If only Samsung could sort this properly in an update this phone would be tops. This whole lag issue is putting me of upgrading from my desire . I really want this phone but there really shouldn't be this issue
[Galaxy S I9000 General] th80:
And what clock/weather widget was used on the phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
Yes there is one hidden thing here: If you have lots of heavy programs like some games, some navigation progs, google earth, you must keep those heavy programs in the old location. I did exactly this - moved to NAND everything except Google Earth, some Gameloft games and navigation. So now I have really fast phone, all my programs, and there is still plenty of space on NAND memory.

And it is just standart/stock XXJF3 firmware btw :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
Its from the market: weather widgets (yr.no)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mickeko:
What exactly is done to optimize Launcher Pro? Seems to me like the OS got optimized and Launcher Pro is just taking a ride on that performance gain.

This smells like a bull**** ad for Launcher Pro. Does it perform any worse running the vanilla home screen? I seriously doubt it. I even doubt the performance difference is very apparent comparing to TouchWiz.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
Thats my video, but not my topic - and the name of the topic is a bit wrong :) Actually you are partly right - speed increase came from apps data on another partition and memory settings, however Launcher Pro performs faster than TW Launcher even with this optimizations. And I don't see any point in advertising Launcher Pro since its completely free - and even without ads as I can see.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mickeko:
Ofcourse there's a point in advertising free stuff. It sets the bars higher for the commercial stuff. :)

I don't see how a launcher can start apps faster than another? The "performance difference" I noticed when comparing Launcher Pro to TouchWiz seemed to be the transitions, not the actual loading of apps. While it adds a slight delay, it has nothing to do with performance. TW is a "smoother" experience than Launcher Pro, which is what I like about it (and which is also why I forgive it for looking way too much like iOS).

Would be interesting (but the time needed puts me off the idea ;) ) to make a true comparison of the huge amount of alternative home screens available. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tintol:
Could you post the steps for this?

The posts about this at Modaco are getting confused, with everyone sharing is way to do it.

I've done this with all apps, but without any games or major apps.

I think you have the best solution for this, just moving the most common apps to NAND.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] OrionTC:
Thats awesome!

I too would love to know the step by step for this...

Am i to assume with only the common apps moved the 130mb cap causing the phone to crash will never be reached? or?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] damianarnold:
I posted on the MoDaCo forum on how to do this for Google Earth, it assumes that you followed all of Paul's instructions in the thread (the original data is backed up to data.bak) and that you are familiar with using adb.

adb shell

su

You can check the amount of space utilised by your applications in the /data/data directory by doing the following:

cd /data/data

du -d1

To move Google Earth out of the way

rm -R /data/data/com.google.earth

ln -s /data/data.bak/com.google.earth /data/data/com.google.earth

Disclaimer: If you are uncomfortable doing any of this, don't do it!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] OrionTC:
Yeah probably best to wait for this to be incorporated into a ROM build or something. Not very familiar with linux commands if anything went wrong id be clueless.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
I suggest, if you are not comfortable with these commands, just don't do it! Just root the phone and use MinFreeMem from market with aggressive preset, it will be quite enough speed!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
I see that exiting from apps to home-screen is faster with LauncherPro, than with TWLauncher, thats why I prefer LauncherPro.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tintol:
Did you noticed any differences in battery life?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
Looks to be same as before
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
Quick question: I am assuming that if you install something big, say Google Earth AFTER you have done Paul's mod, you will then have to move it from dbdata/data to data/data.bak and link it to /data/data from there. As it will go by default to dbdata. Correct?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] giantroxx:
Hi There,

Wasn't able to find MinFreeMem in Android Market - do you have any tips for me to find it?

Regards,

giantroxx
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
minfreemem does not work in galaxy anyway.. it does not reset it at reboot. recommend you get autokill it does the same thing and does work at reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
Yeah that's true I start it manually after reboot. I think there are other programs that do same but work automatically after reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vitalij:
It is called MinFreeManager, sorry for incorrect name.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jUsT2eXy:
how did you do this?

I want to move all my games and large apps from nand back to where they were before because I keep getting memory full...

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kelzad:
I have installed the Modaco rom so are all my apps already been moved to NAND or do I have to do it manually?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] damianarnold:
You have to do it yourself.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alpharom3o:
How do you check the version of the rom? and how to you move the data to nand? Are you also using an external sd memory?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] king98027:
I've been finding myself in many situations where I would love to use my camera in dark/dim places while on a phone call, however, I get a message saying:

"flash light is disabled because of low battery power, cold weather, or phone call."

I tried using an app called LED Desire to take pictures, but it will just shut off during the snapshot. However, it does work well with the video camera on call or off call (pretty nice).

Is there a way to have the flash light work for the camera during phone calls?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] king98027:
Guessing this is a no go?:(
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] htown999:
Download LED Light from the market. Works greats for the camera and video
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] patelkedar91:
You must be on the phone a lot o_o.

Try LED Light.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tlordon:
get flashlight alerts forgot where i got it.. Ill post all my found apps sometime soon.

it is designated app to flash LEDs when sms and calls come in even in vibe or silent.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] king98027:
Thanks for the replies, but like led desire, led light does the same thing when taking pictures while on the phone.... the light just forcefully shuts off after snapping a pic causing a black pic. Haha and yes I talk a lot and like to share my surroundings while on phone
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] krizno:
I got something that might help download led light from the app store put the widget on your scene screen then click it before you go to camera viola light no flash but Light should help in dark places
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] krizno:
Oh your on the desire works on my evo maybe check different flash lights apps
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] herzzreh:
iPhone has a nifty app that displays actual dbm instead of bars for signal strength. Do we have anything like this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nwndarkness:
Well I'm not sure if you know this, but you can view your db in the Phone Info settings menu. I'm guessing you want a hack to change your signals to a number at the top of the phone though?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] herzzreh:
Yup, exactly!

How do you access all of the images/files for the os? There are some things Id like to swap out here and there. Try re-skining a few things. Do I need a kitchen?

Any help would be appreciated!

[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
CFC_GUI would be the ticket you are looking for.
[HD2 General] zelendel:
Depending on what you are trying to edit depends on if they are manila files, png, bmps. what are you trying to edit?
[HD2 General] aaronbass:
CFC GUI seems like the ticket! I cant seem to locate the manila folder to edit the file though.
[HD2 General] zelendel:
The manila files are all stored in the windows folder but it is not a simple as editing the image and then putting it back. Make folder on your desk top for the files. Once you have CFC loaded up then go to tools and export to png, then you can edit them. once you edit the png files then use cfc to make them QTC files again and move them to your device. it will take some trial and error and maybe a reset or two to get the hang of it. Just read all you can on CFC and manila file editing
[HD2 General] aaronbass:
Active Sync the phone and the "windows" folder is nowhere to be found.

I have been reading about CFC GUI and I understand how stuff is done but, I cant find the windows folder...makes me feel retarded
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
you just need to set the "show all files and folders" option in windows on your pc, then the windows folder on the phone will be visible
[HD2 General] aaronbass:
thanks man, found the folder and grabbed the files! :D
[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
It's even easier then your making it. You can Active Sync , start CFC_GUI , go to Device, select "export files" , pick a folder to send them all to.

This would be something I would like to have as well.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] James16p:
Hi. I use the Throttle lock, and it makes the incoming call pictures full screen. its pretty nice. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
MMM I wil like to try that !

is safe i mean sometimes doesn't get stuck or someting ? im scare to lock the phone and have to do a hard reset lol

(lets ask some of this awesome guys if they can make something for that ().
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] geralt:
Maybe you may use software "PocketShield" (more info you may find here). This software is very good for complete locking solution. I use it and I'm satisfied with it. But it isn't free. But when you create new skin for this software you may win a licence.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] enyaj:
hope we can get enough requests and maybe some dev will create one for. I remember having this on my old Tanager with WM2002 I think. So maybe with all advancements our HD2 have, it should be easy?

if someone else knows about something that u can do to see ur incoming call picture bigger please share in here !!

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] outerdepth:
Yeah, give it another try

Check it. I have been using S2U2 for a while. It does exactly what you want. It is a little tricky to get setup if you don't go through all of the settings and basically turn off everything.

What I did was turn off every function of S2U2. Then went back and changed my background pic for it, TURNED ON SLIDE TO ANSWER (full screen), added weather to the bottom corner and Voila! It worked. Just spend the 10 min or so setting it up correctly for yourself the 1st time and you'll be pleased I'm sure. Just give it another try.:cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Disco.Ninja:
I would love to have this as an app! It would look so awesome :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
I try again do they have another version(update ) ?

Still I will like ( if someone have the time to make it ) have another apps to do this without the slide2U2 , im googling to see if i find Tutorials to make it....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:

Hello ppl,

I've notice a kind of bug in froyo, ATM I'm running FRF91 and I notice that when I'm using the maps in 3g for some reason it doesn't load maps right and if it loads it takes a really while to do it.

Most of the time I get a message "connection lost, retrying...."

That only happened when I tried to use maps while connected in 3g and I'm sure is not my cellphone operator cause if close maps and open the browser, I can load pages really fast and if I use a speed test app I have a good conmection, for both download and upload.

Has anyone find something similar and what can I do to solve this??

Thx for the help.

I am using the app and can't find subscriptions. The closest thing is Profile --> "View all posts by MPG187" but that doesn't show if anyone replied and view all topics only shows threads I started and not other people's topics I replied to and it lists old topics at the top, could it have new ones at the top?
[About XDA developers] dexter93:
Have you tried the favorites tab? ;)
[About XDA developers] acerunner:
I'm looking for this feature as well. In the web format of the forum, i have it set so any thread I post in is automatically added to subscriptions. So I can quickly see if there are any replies to the threads I am interested in by going to the user cp page. It would be nice to have a user cp page for the xda app also, instead of having to favorite every thread you post in.

Edit: apparently, favorites in the app is the same as subscriptions. I just noticed my posts made on pc (thus are subscribed to) are automatically showing up in the favorites tab. But posts made in the xda app are not automatically subscribed to, or added to favorites.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robl45:
I know people are working on it, but it doesn't look good now. I want to buy an evo soon, but no root kind of kills it. I can't use the wifi tether without root as I understand it and that is important to me. I guess there are some others that work without root but then you have to install software or something and thats kind of useless.

So does anyone know if it will definately get rooted?

I could probably live with the FPS issue, and I'd rather have the better camera than what comes with the epic, but no way I'm paying rediculous money for wifi tethering when i'm already paying 10 dollars per month extra for 4G that I don't have.

Swype is a incredibly awesome input method, i am addicted and i dont plan to EVER EVER LEAVE. But there are a few things that urk me about it.

#1 How come double tapping words only works in landscape mode to bring up the word choice menu?

If this was fixed, it would make my life and my #2 woe out of commission.

#2 Is there ANY WAY to remove hard coded words in the swype dictionary like

"Dint", i am SICK OF SEEING THIS POP UP. I want to type dont and 90% of the time it is dint. Yes, i know i can choose to type do not, but... its the fact of the matter here.

These are just the 2 things that are really bothersome to me at this point. I would really like to have full access to the user dictionary instead of just words we added.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itay1:
I think you can get to the user dictionary through:

Settings -> Language & Keyboard -> User dictionary
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewstiff:
...Or swype over "d-o-n-'-t" with the apostrophe. Problem solved, plus people will think you're even more intelligent than they do already! :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czm:
that just accesses the android user dictionary not the swype one.

I agree that the it needs more control over the user dictionary. Sometimes it keeps coming up with really unusual words ahead commonplace ones. It also frustrates me that every time I update the android OS I have to reinstall swype and none of the user settings or custom words are saved. I have to start from scratch each time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranch99:
Ya, I'm used to spelling "dont" and having the phone auto correct it to "don't". With Swype, I have to use the apostrophe to get it to recognize the right word.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Bag:
@op

Hello,

According to the swype developers, the double click feature for word selection is something that require OEM integration - which is why the beta version lacks it. In landscape though, the text entry box is actually part of the Swype object, which is why in that mode the double tap feature works.

Dictionary wise, all i know is they use there own custom one - Not sure you can really do much with in the official swype versions "/ Could always put a plus vote towards swype using the main android dictionary on there usersvoice account?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disgustip8ted:
yeah, reinstalling is getting old lol, even my titanium backups dont restore properly. its probably so they can keep them in the beta status and expire at some point. i wish i could just buy it already and it would be in full release, i would easily pay 10-20 bucks for this.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamhlj:
All I do is select the word, or put the cursor into the word, then hit the swype key and that brings up the word choice menu :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam.lah:
No chance, it is only going to be sold to OEM. It will not be on the market.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piggie916:
Kinda sad that we cannot access the dictionary. I dont see why the double tap correct works in landscape and not the other. Is there any developers out there that can change it, or are we not messing with swype anymore? The code is obviously there, and i know it would be something a TON of people that would want.
