another picture viewing app other than gallery...

hey all, i got cm6 going strong and loving it, however im not a fan of the 3d gallery for my pics. Is there any way to get the sense app to view pics, or perhaps another app that is similar to to the sense one? thanks a bunch in advance...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Insomaniac10:
hey guys. im new to XDA and new to the EVO, but not new to Android. I am rooting my buddy's Evo for him, and just wanted to ask a few questions:

1. Which version of Amon's recovery is compatible with the Evo? i do not see a link of an Evo on OP thread link.

2. What is NAND unlocked?

3. Does it matter what version of Android his Evo is currently running?

4. Any heads up advice anyone would like to share for someone who is doing this very much on the fly....?

5. Does this ROM support WiFi tether (google, or barnacle...doesnt matter)?

thanks guys! i cant wait till i lay my Motorola Cliq to rest and get either a G2 or Glacier so i can spend some time on this forum. i hear nothing but great things.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Whoa. 10char.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Insomaniac10:
thanks, great first impression to this community....i dont even know what that means, but im going to assume its about the least helpful response i could have recieved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] monterj:
I'm also curious about installing a different gallery. My uploaded pics from Picasa take far too long to load in 3D Gallery. I have to go to Dolphin and look at Picasa pics. This isn't a huge issue for me, but you know, there's always one little thing to nitpick about.

CM6 is the best rom I've tried though. I'm using Snapv8.2-850 and it's great! I've had a couple random reboot episodes, but I found out a reboot in recovery stops it. Can't wait for the next update, hoping 4g comes to CM6 soon. I don't think I'll be flashing to a different rom till then.

Edit: Well the random reboots are now gone. I had to change SetCPU speeds to a min of 384. It had a sleep profile of 245-384 ondemand.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
lol dude.. it's just most of the android experience you say you have carries over to the evo, and we're just surprised you're asking these questions. i said the same thing too... but still.....

here you go (in bold and italics):

enjoy!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Insomaniac10:
Thanks, I appreciate the help. I ask these questions because I still have not even picked up an evo yet, I'm researching it before hand. And also, my knowledge is limited to the Cliq which we all know is outdated with very limited development, and, for example, have never heard the term "nand unlocked".

Then why waste your precious time responding at all? You gotta start somewhere, I've never even seen an Evo, is it that much of a problem that I clarify a few things before rooting a phone the first time I ever see it?

If it bothers that much just keep scrolling, instead of wasting finger strength by clicking "quote", typing your response", then clicking "submit"..........sorry to sound rude, I accept the fact that there are people like you on every forum, Im just really discouraged that you were my first interaction on this forum that a has very knowledgable, friendly reputation....just a little discouraging that's all, but time to move on

Is there a way to add contact pics to 6.0? My picture is also blank when I text...
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Listen, I'm going to be nice on this one, but honestly, if you want to ask completely noob questions, the CM6 thread is not the best place to do it. This is common sense, and, forum rules. If you bothered to do maybe 15 minutes of research before blindly picking a thread to ask completely off topic questions in, you might have gotten a better response from me. Luckily for you, my partner in crime shift answered your questions, and really, he didn't have to. Now, I can go further, but I won't.

Good luck.

Applications manager FC

Been running into a bunch of force closes today. I think I've fixed most of them (had a lot of newly installed apps from AppBrain syncing that were running and hogging resources, I think).

Anyway, one of the most annoying FCs I've been getting is when accessing the Android applications manager. Force quits every time I go in there.

Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Insomaniac10:
I generally prefer to do things on my own, but in this case I am dealing with someone elses phone, a very valuable piece of equipment....and sometimes you can do all the reading in the world, but its still reassuring to hear it come directly from someone who has done it several times over. I want to be extra careful when handling someone elses device. If that's not a valid reason to ask a few quesions that require one sentence responses, well then ill take my public lashings if that's what it takes to reinforce my confidence......but then again its easy to pick on someone who has less then 10 posts, just don't take my lunch money ;)

Not trying to pile on, and I am pretty much a noob myself to EVO, android, shoot, I'm even a noob to forums...here's a good place to take some time and read and learn and get comfortable. Helped me a lot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=701245

Next, practice searching by typing EVO into the upper right search box, so it takes you straight to the EVO forum. Then use "search this forum" located under the twitter, facebook, news, rules squares. Or, you could choose one of the 5 subforums and "search this forum" from there. Or, you can choose a thread under that subforum, then use "search this thread" and select the "show posts" option if available.

Again, not trying to pile on. I've hardly had to ask a question since I've gotten used to the way the forum works, especially since I'm not usually the first to try something out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kevinbear:
Actually, no. Haven't even touched Titanium since more than 6 flashed ROMs ago.

And as an unfortunate side-note. Guys, get the bickering (or whatever you want to call it) out of this thread and out of this forum. If someone is acting "newbish" (or noobish, n00bish if you want) and posts an irritating question or comment, just ignore the post rather than flame them or argue or teach them a lesson, etc. This thread is supposed to be about Cyanogen Mod 6. Nothing else.

Just end it. Now. No more commentary on it.

Has anyone else had a problem with their battery not fully charging? Mine will be charging all night long and never make it above 83-87%. It will say fully charged at 90%. I have wiped the battery stats, let it drained until it died, and did a full charge.

I have tried 2 batteries (stock HTC and generic), both have the same problems

Currently trying another ROM to see if this is the problem

AvaV6 works just fine. Charged to 100% and the green light came on. Any ideas why this is happening? I'm already missing the speed of this ROM

[EVO 4G Android Development] posguy99:
The standard Android copy/paste. It is, after all, an AOSP ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] posguy99:
Or set them from the Contacts application. What, you think they're magically going to appear on the phone? Since you say you haven't bothered to load the gapps, surely you don't expect the phone to be syncing with GMail Contacts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] krizno:

[EVO 4G Android Development] sugewhite:
Well said...I get it...:D Lets say I did use the gmail apps zip and synced(while waiting for reply)...My profile pic isnt there. Contact pics are..Also no flickr to dump my pics..:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] posguy99:
Again, it's an AOSP ROM. It doesn't have any of the Sense applications. And there's no Me card in the AOSP Contacts application. If you think you should see a particular picture when you call yourself, then add yourself to the Contacts list.

If you want to upload to Flickr, install one of the umpteen upload applications available in the Market.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Rakeesh_j:
For some reason when I move my head away from the phone (e.g. to press numbers on the keypad) it doesn't always bring the screen back up like it normally should, the screen backlight turns on but it stays black. Is there any way to fix this? It's very annoying.

The proximity sensor definitely seems to work fine, just for whatever reason the dialer screen randomly won't come up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
OK I'm having the same issue I had when I first tried this rom...can anyone suggest a fix?

My contacts are borked.

Example: I have some Mandys and Amandas and it is lumping them together...I dont have amanda anymore but her info is tied in with mandy..it has several phones numbers and the wrong pix set up for them ...

Anyone know a fix? Anyway to reset the contacts from my google account?

Also, just double checking....to get voicemails I need to install a sprint VM apk from somewhere correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
go to your gmail and clear it up there first. make sure everything is where it's supposed to be.

then clear cache/data in gmail in settings > applications, then re-sync contacts.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Not surw what you mean by cleanit up in gmail?

I cant re-enter the numbers because I don't know who is who..

**edit** If I flash back to a sense rom, everything is correct... not sure why it gets borked on CM6, I'd like to give this rom an honest go

*edit** OK I cleared data in gmail, contacts, contact storage and resync my google account...still didn't straighten it out =( ...
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
that's odd. are you also syncing fb?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
I was, but I turned it off before I cleared all the data and did a re-sync.

I made a v-card export from my gmail from the PC...is there anyway to clear my contacts and maybe import that?

Anybody having issues sending emails using gmail app on this ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
weird. yea, try the v-card export. don't sync contacts with gmail when prompted (obviously). you can import them when you go into contacts and select menu and go through the options (can't remember them exactly right now).

and lol glad i could help. i'll feel better if it works though lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Ok, I'll try that..

While I try to fix this can I ask a couple things then I'll leave you alone.

Things like Sprint TV, Sprint NFL work on this rom correct? Just need to install them?

Also, I don't see any kind of wireless tether.. what do we use for that?

Thanks again man.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
the sprint apps need to be installed. you can find the respective .apk files here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731637

and, froyo already has built-in tethering, which cm6 utilizes beautifully. just go here:

settings > wireless & networks > tethering & portable hotspot

hope that helps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] juancaperez2000:
it is true that you need to give some period playing with this rom then you going get better battery life
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
that's with every rom. whenever you flash, it's best to go through a few battery cycles to get a good idea of how your battery is going to last.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Just can't get it to work...I tried clearing and turning sync off then importing my vcard.. it reads it and all my names seem to be downloading but my contatcs list still shows as empty...then I turn contact sync back on and it does the same thing as before..

Crazy..Rom seems sexy as hell but I can't even use it =\

Thanks for the help tho Shift, I appreciate it

[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
hehe keep an eye out in the snap thread in the next day or two...

yea, i was hoping you'd have to avoid that, but at least it's all settled. the updated facebook app has the ability to sync contacts (it's in the fb settings).

as for gallery, let it create the cache thumbnails. it takes some time initially, but it loads considerably faster after that first time.

anyone else getting this issue??
[EVO 4G Android Development] joackie27:
Yeah shift_ is right that you should make sure that the names (facebook and contacts) do match up. If they are already matched and the pics are still not appearing, try using SyncMyPix from the market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
OK, thanks guys ... I'll edit the names to match and try again.

Anyone got some good setcpu profiles for this?

Also, has anyone found a workaround to get the new sprint football app on here? I really need that
[EVO 4G Android Development] brule71:
Also check when you edit the contact, if you have a pic from Gmail then it won't show the FB pic. If you delete the pic from Gmail then you will see the FB pic. Kind of a pain but if you want to see the FB pic that's the only thing I've found that works well
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i'd suggest checking out the snap thread for ideas to set cup setcpu profiles. we have some really clever and smart users there sharing ideas on how to manage cpu usage based on power consumption and performance.

Damn, I really wish this rom could run longer on my phone. I'm running Fresh's newest rom with the stock kernel and the battery is just amazing. I'm plugging it in tonight and it's been unplugged for 14 hours and awake for 4. And what's the battery life? 45%. I basically did my normal daily routine that I would on CM6, only I'm getting around quadruple battery life (I'm usually in the red after 7 hours). Hopefully this latest kernel will have some sort of magic in it that Cyanogen can harness.

Apparently you are to call Sprint and tell them you got that error. They will flick a switch on their end and it will work.

Can someone please post vvm link for me to install,i would search but I'm on my phone using xda app
[EVO 4G Android Development] posguy99:
It doesn't matter what you think it did, this is what it did before you put CM6 on, this is what it's going to do after you put CM6 on. It is going to happen irregardless of the ROM you put on it.

And yes, it's going to continue to charge, it's going to get to 100%, then it's going to stop charging until it gets back down to 90%, then it's going to charge back up to 100%.

This behavior on the part of the phone is the source of plenty of idiots whining about how fast their batteries drop.
