I know this is an older post, but I thought I would post here instead of starting a new thread.

I just flashed Onyx from Team Whiskey earlier today and to my surprise, the regular email client supports Move To Folder. I love it. Have been searching for this feature ever since I made the move to Android. It was the one reason I started learning how to root and flash to begin with.

Just wanted to give Team Whiskey from props.
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
Since any of the custom 2.2 ROMs came out the email client wont connect to Yahoo any more:( For the first time it downloads emails, next time it says password incorrect. It happened to me after Obsidian V2 as well as V3. So now usng Maildroid. It supports move to other folders.
[Vibrant General] izmahoby:
The last two 2.2 ROM's I used had issues, but all could move an email between folders in my Exchange account. However after upgrading to CyanogenMod 7.1 this is gone. Anyone have a 2.3 ROM that has this functionality? I don't want to download touchtown just for this basic functionality.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megajosh:
Please help, i have tried understanding all this adb stuff but cannot get a grip on it, can someone please provide me with an easy-ish... way of removing the default HTC photos app as i have installed gallery3D and im sick of having two gallery apps, i know there is a way to rename the 3D gallery so that it overrides the stock one but im not technically able enough to do this,

Thanks in Advance, Joshua,

P.S. ill happily donate via paypal to anyone who can help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnSteveDoe:
You don't need to rename it. Just install the 3D Gallery, save any image off any website, open it from the browser downloads section, and tick "set as default", then select the Nexus Gallery. If you want, I can give you some simple instructions on how to do it via ADB too (when I get home).

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjz147:
I hate the stock Music player that comes with the EVO, I think its slow, and not easy to navigate around.

I tried Mix zing player, but it looks ugly, the graphics are made for a 480*320 screen and haven't been updated for the WVGA devices like the EVO.

So I downloaded the AOSP stock ANDROID Music player, the one on the Nexus one and the Droid.

The issue is, that when you are on the main screen where it says albums, artists, songs, and playlists.

And you are in the songs category when you scroll through the lists using the grey wheel on the right that helps navigate through letters, it is not accurate at all.

For example i will be at the top of my song list, I have 800 Songs BTW and I will scroll down a little using the grey bar and the bar will bring up W, then R and V to show the letter of the song names, but it doesn't even bring up the right songs, see for yourself in the video and please tell me why it is doing this or if their is a fix.

I know their are plenty of alternatives, but I really like this music app aside from this problem. I am thinking it has something to do with the FPS issue with the EVO and or some HTC Framework or app that is causing a problem.

Hey Guys :)

i bought this BT Keyboard : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6520628&postcount=2

It works on Windows Mobile without any "driver", but on every android version atm it don't works (i can just pair it)

There is an App for the Android (on the driver disk of the keyboard), but this don't work -.- even on the Produkt Page is written: "Google Android(1.6+)" bad joke -.-

Already tried "elbrain.bluekeyboard.ime (free version)" but after it tries with "Connecting..." some seconds later it displays "Disconnected."

Does anyone has the same BT Keyboard, and got it work? :(

Hi,

I have tried about 6 different 2.2 ROMS by different people and in everyone when i try the fbook sync it stops on 293 contacts. This means most of the important people do not have any fbook info linked to their name on the phone, no email address or photo etc

is this a bug in all the base 2.2s or something else i can fix myself?

Thanks

After copying some files from an iMac to my phone, I got a notification saying that my SD card was corrupted. This has never happened on any other system I´ve used (Windows 7, XP, various Linux distros), so I suspect it may have been because of OSX. When mounted, I can copy files to/from the card like normal. AndroZip can still browse the SD card when unplugged. I´m using CMH 1.3.

Any solutions?

Hey I was just wondering if there was a way to download a multi gig file such as a movie on the HTC Evo. I have been able to download a couple avi movies on the evo, but when I tried to do it with a 8.75 gig movie it wouldn't download it. I was hoping a dev could take a look and see why. I wad on WiFi when trying to download so I ruled out the possibility the network rejected it. Could someone help me ? Thanks in advance.

Hey guys.

I've been trying all night to partition 4GB SD card on my HTC Desire and got a problem. I'm getting stuck in fastboot, every time i want to reboot my phone, as I did normally before, i can not, because it boots directly into fastboot. I partitioned with Rom Manager, but have read all around that it does partition the sd card only to ext2, and you need to update to ext3 manually but I didn't know how, even if I read a lot of different tutorials. I can't even get into my froyo and mount my SD card to the pc :(

Now, can somebody help me get out of this mess?

Any help would be appreciated. Thx.

EDIT:

After reading many more posts lately, I've found out that partitioning went well and that showing 3.2 GB of free space on the SD card was right... Sounds very noobish though.

But, still can't get my mobile phone working, can't even put a new ROM on the SD card and flash it, because can't even mount the SD card on the pc :/

[EVO 4G General] sablesurfer:
Huh...I got my about a week ago from another post here. I just went to the page with my phone and downloaded some installer...then the golf game. Deleted the installer right after.

The game isn't all that bad...it's not great, but I have never attempted to play a game on phone before.

The graphics are mostly ok, the fly overs are actually pretty good. The issue is when you notice the trees with blue outlines. I mean SERIOUSLY!! Who let that person have a graphics job. They just used same trees over and when background is a mountain or other trees...then they all have blue edge where they artist just selected the tree and cut it. BLECH.

The controls are a bit touchy...well way too touchy actually. When you attempt to change the target where the ball will land...the grid shifts around all crazy. Very hard just to shave a dozen feet off the distance but still be aimed at the hole.

The hit controls are weird. The easy version seems to slide up and down at random speeds...the advanced version...well I have yet to figure it out...what is a shank and what is a good hit? No idea.

Anyway...overall it has wasted a good few hours total...but super glad I didn't pay for it.

When will Dungeon Hunter be free!!!!!

Sms?.....just install the bookmark app then it instantly let me do the game app. No waiting for a sms....after starting the game 1st time had to do the 157mb file which took about 45 seconds over my WiFi connection and played the game....super easy(not the game)...now I just gotta wait for group or root it so I can save to SD card.......
[EVO 4G General] nestersan:

Hi..stupid question but i cannot seem to get my phone to vibrate whenever I receive a text or notification..can someone tell me where i can go to set this?

I tried going into settings, sound and display but i do not have vibrate as a selection in the notification ringtone tab.

Is there an app i can download that allows me to customize my sounds?

thanks!
[Captivate General] johnnyb138:
the settings for notifications are within each messaging application. if you go to your sms application, hit the options button and go into settings. at the bottom you will find the notification settings, including vibrate and a ringtone selection. notifications for each of your messaging apps are configured this way.
[Captivate General] pantyryder69:
Thanks for the help!
[Captivate General] SiL3nTKiLL:
i did that, but when i get a txt now, its like a half a second vibrate, nothign long at all, dont even know it vibrated 99% of the time :/
[Captivate General] derek4484:
Nothing you can do about that in android. Thats the default android vibrate for notifications. I think it sucks too, its way too short and too soft of a vibration.

What you can do is install SMS Popup. Go into settings on that app and enable notifications on it. It has more options for SMS notifications, like you can set a really long vibration. Just remember to then go into the Android messaging app and turn off notifications there, otherwise you'll get double notifications. This will only help fix the problem for SMS messages. I think android still sucks on incoming notifications for other items like emails, etc.

I REALLY like SMS Popup, its great.

I hooked up the earphone out jack to my aux input on my car today. The sound was awful. I had to turn up the radio volume quite a lot to get the same level of sound as my Rhapsody Ibiza player. The sound was no where near as good as my normal player and was focused mostly in the tweeters in the front of the car.

Has anyone experienced something similar. I was using the Rhapsody client for Android as the player. It seems to sound fine through the OEM-supplied headphones otherwise.

You have to push the headphone in harder. I'm pretty sure its not all the way in :). That's what happened to me :). Or change your AUX cable.

you can download launchers just straight from the market. once its installed, press home and you'll see a pop up asking which launcher you want to choose. you can also use this app called home switcher to choose your launchers.

I don't know if that link was a rom... BUT you do not need to be rooted to change launcher. Disable sense. Download launcher- I have launcherpro.. the launcher on the link looks like some version of adw.

To disable sense: settings>applications> manage applications> scroll down to htc sense > Scroll to the Launch by default section and tap the Clear Defaults button> Directly below in the Controls section, tap the Force Stop button, and press OK

You have now disabled the Sense UI overlay. It's still there, just not running.

Press the Home button and select Launcher (If you want to keep it this way for a while, check the box to set this as the default option)

[Captivate General] Sounds Good:
I have an original iPhone 2G that I want to replace. I've been waiting for the new iPhone 4 to come out, and I was planning on buying one -- but the death-grip problem got me to do some research, which is how I found out about the Captivate.

Now I'm torn on which one to get. Obviously I'm very accustomed to the iPhone, but I've never used Android. So...

1. What are the major differences between iOS and Android?

2. What might I like better about Android? What might I not like about Andriod? And what might I like better about iOS?

3. What might I like better about the Captivate phone? What might I prefer about the iPhone 4 phone?

4. I've read a lot of comments about "Lag" on the Captivate, which would really bug me. Is it true?

Etc, etc...

I think you get the point of the thread. ;)

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate General] rob989_69:
The hardware differences are obvious. As far as lag, yes, there's some issue's but there's work arounds.

The biggest difference, the IPhone is a great phone, right out of the box without messing with anything. But your stuck with what you got. Apps are restricted, web is restricted, your pretty much at the mercy of att and apple.

Android, requires more out of the box tinkering, but you have endless possibilities. You can customize your phone the way you want it.
[Captivate General] Saftwear:
You have to realize that the iPhone and ios are completely locked down. You are destined to use the apps that apple ok's you have no other hardware choices and are locked into iTunes and all things apple.

Android is a complete 180 it allows for so much customization that it is simply mind boggleing. If you are unhappy with a certain apps or feature sets you can simply build your own or find something else.

With this.freedom comes responsibility. You need to manage your Apps and memory usage. You have to babysit a bit in order to get the most out of the device.

Being able to play most movie files and tons of audio file types is very freeing

Also the screen is insanely gorgeous.

It really comes down to two things in the end.

Do you have tons of Apps already for ios that you are not willing to part with?

Do you like geeking out a bit in order to build your dream device?
[Captivate General] Sounds Good:
Got a link to these workarounds? This one's a biggee for me.

Does this mean that if we're happy with the iPhone out of the box we're better off with iPhone 4 since there's no need to mess with anything?

How so? Can you give some examples? I only know what the iPhone gives us out of the box, so I have no way to know what I might be missing.

Thanks.
[Captivate General] asrrin29:
Android uses widgets, which is something iOS lacks. You have the freedom to add and remove more than just app icons to your homescreen, such as weather indicators, contact rolodex, clocks, RSS feeds, facebook updates, everything. you can literally have every piece of pertinent info such as your todo list, email, weather, time, and alrams, all available on a single screen, without having to inside individual apps.

Another nifty feature of android are the live wallpapers. These animated, and often interactive, backgrounds adds a unique customization that lets people know your phone is unique.

the captivate is VERY usable right outside the box, unlike some other android phones. Despite what some people say, the Touchwiz UI (the UI that samsung has installed) is very fun to use, easy to customize, and is a natural transition for iphone users. The app dock at the bottom makes it feel slightly like an iphone, but includes the Android widgets to give you a nice feel of the phone.

On the downside, Samsung and AT&T install a lot of bloatware that slows down the phone. You will more than likely want to root the phone to be able to uninstall the AT&T Apps, the only duplicate the functionality that android has by default, and at a cost. for instance AT&T Navigate is a monthly charge app that is inferior to the free and default android navigate.
[Captivate General] Sounds Good:
Hmmm, this may be a problem. The sluggishness would drive me nuts, but if "root" is similar to Jailbraking, it's not my cup of tea. I know, I know... most of you have no problem with this... but I've never done it and I most likely never will. Which (apparently) leaves me with a sluggish phone. Not good.

I appreciate the feedback... it's the only way to truly learn.
[Captivate General] asrrin29:
You can disable all of the apps without root, but they will still be in your menu taking up space. I notice it's the Samsung widgets that cause lag the most (but honestly, it's still snappy even with the bloat) once you disable them the thing flies.

And rooting is only superficially similar to jail breaking. all rooting does is install the superuser app that allows you to do things an administrator is allowed to do. If you don't want it on your phone you simply uninstall the superuser app and it's back the way it was. what would be more akin to jailbreaking would be to enable sideloading, a way to install apps without using the market. This requires editing the system database, which is harder to reverse. You can enable root without also enabling sideloading, they are two different processes.

If you use a PC, you can even use Droid Explorer to uninstall apps without rooting your phone.
[Captivate General] derek4484:
Dont you need to have root access to install busybox? My droid explorer wouldnt work until I downloaded and installed an updated busybox.

Rooting my phone was the first thing I did as soon as I got home, so I'm not sure if you need to have root access to install busybox or not.
[Captivate General] asrrin29:
Not sure, I rooted immediately as well, I just read about the explorer here on the forums.

Wtf is this lag you all talk about?? install laucher pro and that fixes the laggy touchwiz UI ****tiness...other than that android runs like butter on this device its unreal, i had an acer liquid and trust me android is not the same on a galaxy S its just unreal how smooth it is.
[Captivate General] lilo777:
I suspect that people who have issues with sluggishness just got too enthusiastic about newly acquired freedom :) I solved this issue (that is if I even had it in a first place) by switching from Live Wallpaper to a regular one. No other tricks. I use TouchWiz (I like it). Here is a video comparing iPhone 4 and Captivate side by side. It uses stock Captivate and it's not any more sluggish than iPhone 4. In fact, it's faster in many tests.
