If you're looking for icons, you should try: iconfinder.com
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] daaper:
is there any way to use these icons outside of Better Cut? I want to use them in launcher pro and tasker if possible
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] dudebro:
have you had a look at these?

http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/icons

they're just default and I know you're asking for something like it but solid... but this just gives you more options.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] berrios28:
if u want the same icons just take a icons from one of the update.zip files:)

How do I change the font of my entire phone? I'm running the latest fresh ROM 1.0.1 btw
[Droid Eris General] CGriffiths86:
I did a battery wipe, but it seems to have made my battery readings worse. A friend told me to let the phone completely die and then fully recharge. Should that help?
[Droid Eris General] neuro_genesis:
Yes, that will help. Its called calibrating the battery.
[Droid Eris General] CGriffiths86:
Ok..the phone is dead now. Does it matter if I do the full recharge while its off or on?
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
Do it while it's off.

When you do a wipe while installing a new rom do the battery stats get wiped?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cellularticulate:
So I was one of the (very) unfortunate individuals conned into getting the motorola cliq before the xt came out. So basically I have an expensive android battery hog. Its tolerable with your charger always connected, but with new headset rules here in washington state, I need a phone that doesn't have to have the power managed by the minute. Basically this thing sucks balls, and since I've upgraded my baseband I don't feel like trying to re-root this heap of ****.

So in turn I'm looking for an adroid phone that I can root (that also has good roms without losing important features like headphones). One that doesn't have a p.o.s. battery life and one that will work on t-mobile. Id love to learn to develop for an android phone, but I'm tired of being limited in what I do.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cellularticulate:
Anyone? I was hoping for at least one response here....all I'm looking for is a suggestion for a good android phone that can be rooted, the roms don't suck, it has a sim card slot, and the battery life is better than the motorola cliq
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shpongled:
As far as I have seen there are no smartphones with decent batterytime when used as a computer. Look at batteries in laptops, and they are huge.. My N1 is OK, a normal day I don't have to care.. but I suspect that Booth ios and winwo is a bit easier on the battery.

I've been looking everywhere for the door unlock sound from Jet Force Gemini, but it is like impossible to find. It would be the PERFECT notification sound.

-------------
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Jedi Master Ri:
I tend to pull a lot of sounds from all these cool sound board apps, like the star wars one and the Mario Soundboard, both offer the option to export sounds to your notifications folder on your SD card.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] effluent:
Does anyone have any good little horn notification sounds? Like the iPhone has a stock one, one of those little horns attached to a bike you squeeze.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] herbthehammer:
Let me see if this will work. I made these from a digital watch beep. I made a single and a double. I use the double for a top of the hour signal and the single for the :30 of the hour. Those of you who were old school enough, might remember the casio digital watches of the early 80's that did that same thing. Some even played songs. The digital watches of today only give a chime at the top of the hour. I used app called alarms to accomplish this. If I pay attention, I know what time it is without even looking at the phone or watch by listening to the beeps. Let's see if this works...

They are nice and clean and loud without clipping or distorting.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Vegasden:
I use that occasionally.

I made a .zip of a few I tend to use:

bike horn (single)

bike horn (dbl)

airplane cabin chime

duck quack (my twitter sound)

ESPN alert
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mjones832:
This, by far, is the best sms tone ever made.

I present, the Starcraft sms tone. Its the one of the robotic chick that beeps at you and then says "Receiving incoming transmission."

Download it here : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C19GJC71

Enjoy.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] effluent:
Thanks! How do I get these to show up to select as a notification sound? I've put sounds on my card before and they just showed up to select, but not these.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mjones832:
Make a 'notifications' folder in the root of your sdcard. Place them there.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] churchwin88:
Going back like 6 or so years, I have always used the Mail Motherf**ker from the movie Eurotrip for all my text/notification sounds.

I've tried different ones over the years but for some reason I keep coming back to this one after a few days.

EDIT: I should say it is nothing great but just thought I'd share. :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
I used to use that back on my Palm!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] churchwin88:
Haha, nice!

I see you had the mm-8300 at one point. That was my previous phone before my evo now. I had that phone for like 5 years or some ****...I definitely jumped into the deep end of the pool when I bought this baby but I have my floaties off now lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
It's a huge jump, huh? And I thought coming from the Hero to the EVO was a big upgrade!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] churchwin88:
Yeah, it was a very huge jump(at least for me). I kept waiting and waiting for a decent enough phone(sprint wise) to upgrade to but nothing kept my attention. All my friends would have the latest and the greatest and I was sporting the 8300 lol

PS: Sorry OP not trying to hijack your thread or anything.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] vWvSTATICvWv:
I been using the same notification for yrs also. All the way back to the Sanyo 8100. It was super loud and people would look @ me crazy when it went off :p
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Vegasden:
I made a folder called media in root of storage card

inside made a folder called audio

then inside of audio made 3 folders (alarms, ringtones, notifications)

placed files in appropriate folders.

If they don't show up after you disconnect from your PC, try a reboot. Then they should all be there. (there may be other ways, but this has worked for me for all custom tones)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mjones832:
Yea, this method is the correct and more structured way. My sdcard is a disaster. =[
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] effluent:
They eventually showed up after about an hour.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] herbthehammer:
Yeah, anyone could say try this or that notification or ringtone app. I think this thread would be good if it were home made sounds or old/hard to find sounds.

Wrong word choice and misspelling courtesy of swype.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] KJThaDon:
Here's a few I have
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] herbthehammer:
I just found a, basically, endless supply of notification sounds and here's how you do it.

Download games, lots of them! Full or demo, it doesn't matter. Use something like root explorer and go find where they were installed to. That's usually in /data/app, or somewhere near there. Copy the apk's to somewhere on your sd card. Go back to where you copied them to. Select one, but long press it until a dialog box comes up. Select extract. It will extract everything in the apk to /sdcard/extracted. Now go there and start poking around in the folders. Sooner or later you will strike notification sound gold! Look at all then oggs, wavs, and mp3s!

Now copy the sounds you want to the place on your sd card that a previous post said. Reboot, and there you go! Whoohoo!

[Liquid S100 General] boostnek9:
Ok so I'm new to this phone.. I am coming from G1 and I'm a bit confused as to what the .Bin files are and then comes the custom roms...

So let me get this right.. from what i'm reading, the .BIN in pretty much firmware and you load the roms on top of them? or can I load the roms just straight up?

Everywhere I read it says to use a 1.100.05 bin and then add the rom.. can I flash any liquid e rom over a newer bin? what's the deal?

Thanks for the info

wow great work community...

don't help me or anything.:mad:
[Liquid S100 General] kidoucorp:
Wow man, calm down :)

Firstly, you didn't posted in the good section, so post moved ;)

Then, about your question, here is my answer, but maybe not totally right (But I'm pretty sure it is :p) :

BIN files are the official acer roms. They also contains the baseband of the phone, which contain mainly the radio.

Custom rom, in zip format, are full rom. They are based on a certain baseband, that's why each rom recommand its own bin file (mainly, they are all based on the latest one available).

Hope this have answered to your questions.
[Liquid S100 General] paper_kiwi:
I don't think many people have the acer liquid so I dont think theres too many who can help.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] almand3000:
Now that the Galaxy S has been rooted, is it possible to load a WP7 ROM on this device wen WP7 is released?????

As it is announced, Samsung is one of the manufacturers of WP7 phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mrassol:
why buying an android phone to install windows mobile ? you've better buy a htc hd2 ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcharng:
Even if it possible, will never go there!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xfox:
Android all the way
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
you can always do a Dual Boot using Gen.Y DualBOOT i'm doing that on my Athena to get Android working on it.

so the opposite can be done as well, keep Android as the default OS, and instal WM7 to play around on the SD card
[Galaxy S I9000 General] terrorblind:
The Galaxy actually fulfills one of the requirements regarding WP7

Since WP7 only supports 3 buttons on the interface itself, and thats what the SGS has

So it should be "possible"

-TB-
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mikael120:
no, the chances of that are pretty much zero, porting wp7 to the galaxy s would be extremely hard.

gen.Y DualBOOT is a program for windows phones and won't run on any android phone, and the reason we can port android to windows mobile so easily is because android is a open source OS, windows mobile is closed which makes it pretty much impossible to port

Simply meting the requirements won't make this any easier, to be able to run windows 7 on our phones we would need drivers, simple as that, and developing drivers for a closed OS is pretty much impossible
[Captivate General] madjsp:
So, I am coming from the iPhone and Symbian os and they have the ability to back up stuff with iTunes.

My question, is there anything like that for Android? I am not very familiar with Android so I am curious. Something like contacts, apps I've downloaded, etc.

Also, if there is a way, is this way available on Mac, or must I boot into my windows partition to take advantage?

I looked through quite a few of the pages on the captivate general forum and didn't see any posts regarding this. Thanks!
[Captivate General] Citznfish:
I'd also be interested in a general back up program..
[Captivate General] ewingr:
I use titanium backup. I read that it is the best backup.I have to say that it is very different than what you use on a computer.

I have not done a restore with it yet.I have not figured out how to do a selective restore (individual file) yet.

I am not sure about just iTunes.

I'm trying to figure this out because it seems that with some if I don't have the album art it manages to find it, others have blank album art. Some of them, for example if I have an album within a folder, will use the 'cover.jpg/png' file as the default cover which is desirable.

What I'm trying to do is to get most my music with album covers. Suggestions?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
seperate everything into seperate folders and add jpg's walla
[Droid Eris Android Development] sword-:
That seems like something iTunes would do.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
then use doubletwist music player and sync with itunes. . . answered your own question ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] sword-:
Eh I prefer drag and drop but I'll check it out.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
i think some mp3's themselves will have the album art info embedded into the file.

as for folders and art...

if you include a jpg called "AlbumArt.jpg" within your folder, it will always use that file for album covers (this is what i do).
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
If it's like iTunes (and other apps, I presume), with accurate ID3 tags, it looks up and downloads the album art from somewhere. Without accurate or enough data, it shows nothing.

Really cool, will see if I can find some pics.

I used my old Blackberry Bold 9000 stock holster, which is magnetic (flap and outside of case have magnets). I didn't notice any problems at all, unlike with my Milestone which went into Car or Home Dock modes if it came too close to a magnet.

Hi!

A lot of people use the famous CoOkies Home Tab wich offer a lot of customisation on HD2's today screen.

One of them is the possibility to use a panoramic wallpper (960x800) who move while the page is slidding (just like on SPB Mobil Shell or Android UI).

So I've made some wallpapers for this option (don't forget to enable "HD WALL MOD" in the settings on CHT to have a better result)
