[HTC Aria General] xdafly:
we have multiple HTC Aria's in family and everyone has at least one Gmail account which is setup on the Aria

when looking in Gmail (regular computer logon), the Green Android Icon (GI) (it's a google labs feature for users with Android phones..) shows for half the phones, the other half have Yellow Android Icon (YI) which would indicate somehow they are not available but are logged in.

question is, even when having a Google Talk/Voice session with the YI folks, the yellow android remains. same if the person writes/types an email on Gmail on their Aria.

what controls that feature and specifically, how does a YI become GI ?
[HTC Aria General] wxjoe:
Hm... I don't this is really an Aria issue. You may find more info by giving feedback on that Gmail Labs product. Go to the Labs settings in Gmail, then next to the Green Robot! product, click on Send feedback.

Hope that helps!

HI i have been tying day and night to change my people to icon only to match my other set. i have tried alot of tips from a few threads here already but no go.can someone show me the good way to:

1. change text to icon.

2. or add icon follow by text.

3. make the icon bigger

my phone:diamond cdma vga.
[General Questions and Answers] Note2Frat:
It looks like you know how to edit the cpr file already.

To remove text. You simply delete the plug-in <text>.

To change the image. Replace <Image ID=" "> from what it is to ImageFixed.

Location and size is controlled by the coordinates. Left=" " Top=" " - is location Height=" " Width=" " - is size. End it with the location of the image \Windows\Image.png.

Example of what I have in mine

<Image ID="Imagefixed" Left="5" Top="5" Width="165" Height="80" Source="\Windows\TitaniumHub_time.png" />

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidestep22:
Hello All,

The title pretty much says it all but just in case I confused you:

I have family members that I would need to reach me in the middle of the night if there was an emergency. I *thought* that placing that contact into a group marked "important" would allow it to bypass the silent ringer (which I like to invoke when I sleep as I don't need to hear every email coming in and wrong numbers)..

I say *thought* because several nights ago another contact in the "important" group called me when I *thought* I had silent set and it still rang, not using the Called ID announcement that it normally does, but a simple ring.

So this evening I asked the family member to call me with the ringer set to silent and no ring at all when they called! So either I'm not understanding how to do this, or, I was wrong the other night when the call came in although I *thought* I had it set to silent.

If there is an app or anything, I'd be willing to investigate..

My rig:

Full root and Nand

rooted stock, 2.1 eclair

Programs in the mix that might affect the situation:

Drive Safely (which I only use when in the car)

Caller ID (from the same folks as Drive Safely)

Thanks!

thanks again for all the help.

[Vibrant General] NikAmi:
That shouldn't matter if he has WiFi at home. I assume all he needs is the GSM signal to make phone calls.

Something to look forward to: T-Mobile is testing an Android based UMA software which will allow you to make and receive calls using your T-Mobile number over WiFi so that should really solve your problem. I would hold off on the repeater purchase if possible because the UMA is supposed to go live in Q3 and I don't want you to lay out all that cash unnecessarily.

They are also illegal as the frequencies you are retransmitting are licensed. Chances are that they will never find you, but if you cause a degradation in the cell sites in the area and they do find it. You will be told to turn it off or face a $10K fine from the FCC. Just an FYI.

[Vibrant General] inessabrown:
First of all you should Know your operator, the friequence that is comportable to each booster is different, after you should know the coverage you want your booster to cover whether it is a big parking zone, office or room. Only according to these principles I'll be able to buy the amplifier
[Vibrant General] AquaeAtrae:
Background: I've always had negligible reception in my basement here in Arvada (near Denver, CO). With AT&T (GSM), I generally had 0 to 1 bar, sometimes getting calls, sometimes not. With Sprint, I rarely got a signal and soon returned the handset. Now on T-mobile (GSM again), I get about the same reception as AT&T though the Vibrant holds onto it better very rarely dropping entirely. I most often connect to an Edge 2G tower, but occasionally can hold a 3G connection here.

I've been curious about boosters for some time though wasn't ready to pay several hundred dollars. A few weeks ago, I came across the YX-300 zBoost zPersonal for $50 that seems to normally sell for $120. Admittedly, its pretty basic; it's antenna is meant to be within a few feet of the handset. It just arrived and I'll be testing it using Cell Mapper 2 and Tasker.

Another option you all may want to explore are external antennas which physically connect to the phone. I've confirmed that this (like most) phones has a plug hidden under a little rubber cover next to the SIM card.

I'll share what results I can in hope it helps those considering boosters...

2010.08.21 5am Initial test

After testing for about 30 minutes, I haven't seen much difference having the booster powered on or off. Wish I had something more significant to report. I'll keep watching and see if I ever fully lose signal (w/blue circle, crossed out icon) while using the booster. If not, I'll consider it worthwhile.

2010.08.21 6am Same test, later

Actually, now I'm seeing a very notable difference in 2G signal with the booster powered on. Specifically, it shows 4/4 bars consistently for over 10 minutes and then instantly drops to 0/4 bars when unplugged. Once plugged back in, back to 4/4. I'm not expecting any 3G improvement given the bands this booster enhances but this round seems promising. No idea what could be different from my earlier test. All I did was pop out to setup Tasker to record outages. ::shrug::

One thing is for certain with this particular booster. The phone must be VERY close to the desk antenna to benefit. Now that I'm getting results, moving the phone mere inches further away makes a significant difference. A foot away and the signal's gone. I expect I'll be hacking together a DIY desk dock built around this antenna.

2010.08.27 9am After about a week of testing

As advertised, the $50 zBoost zPersonal seems to consistently give me a full signal where I normally barely have one with calls and SMS both working great. But as mentioned, this particular booster has a very limited rebroadcast range of just a foot or so (at the desk). Beyond that, I've lost signal a few times while elsewhere in the same room. I'd be curious how the larger, more expensive boosters work many suggesting the improved signal extends throughout several rooms.
[Vibrant General] larryccf:
others have reported that socket next to the sim card as a socket for an optional GPS antenna - as a FYI
[Vibrant General] brodie7838:
I would definitely recommend the SpotWave unit. I have one for ATT that was use in a large office complex for a few years and worked wonders. From what I understand, they actually work directly with the various carriers to make sure their repeaters don't interfere with the cell towers.
[Vibrant General] AquaeAtrae:
I've heard people suggest that. I've never seen it formally documented on these phones nor tested it myself. However, I do know that every phone I've owned, dating back to my first (a Nokia 6190 from 1998), discreetly included this same jack. None of these earlier phones had any kind of GPS built-in. Beyond this, I do know that jack is wired into the main GSM antenna (found under the bump) as seen in these teardown photos. This suggests the external antenna definitely extends GSM cell reception in our phones. It could potentially extend GPS as well, but only if GPS used the same antenna (as opposed to one located along the top). Either way, it would help with phone calls and SMS.

Dude, seriously, just step away from the computer before you break something. I have seen numerous posts that have tried to help you root your N1, and every time, you tell them that it's too hard and that you can't figure it out. It's not that it's too hard, its just that you don't want to spend the time to learn. You don't want to try.

Honestly, I think my 8 year-old cousin could follow the directions on how to root it. It's incredibly simple, just not as simple as a 'one click and you're good to go' thing.

Before you go off and make YET ANOTHER post, read and reread the instructions until they either make sense, or just give up. A stock N1 is still a damn good device.

I have downloaded titanium and understand how to back up apps but I am lost on how to pull them back and restore them once I have done and wipe and flashed a rom. Anyone have some advice on how to do this? I have searched the web and cant seem to find a place that gives a good explanation
[Droid Incredible General] Captchunk:
When you backup an app or app+data with Titanium Backup it is saved to your SD Card. When you wipe and flash a new rom, if the rom does not have Titanium Backup (most don't have it cooked in) then you need to download it from the market. It will see the backups you have and from the main app screen you will click on Backup/Restore. Then click on the app that you wish to restore and it will bring a pop-up that gives you buttons with actions to choose from. Click Restore and it will ask if you want to restore the App only or app+data. If you choose App+Data, it should restore to the state that it was in when you made the backup, meaning that it should retain your settings.
[Droid Incredible General] Kipphh:
So outside of doing a batch backup every now and then to keep everything up today I dont have to do anything else but just reload titanium on the new rom

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] knifedge:
q&a

Your last three posts were all in 30 min. If you were able to install Android and run it in 30 min, then that's about as tight a procedure as anyone could want.

Somewhere I read that 2GB was the max for the Touch Pro 2, but the official site doesn't give a limit. Did you use an 8GB SD card?

Your M.IP Default Profile will be your phone number if you've never moved it from another carrier. If you originally had a phone number on AT&T, for example, and you moved it to US Cellular, then your M.IP Default Profile will be a different number.

As Reefermattness says on the main thread ( http: //xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=627997 ), the battery meter is about 50% working right now. You'll get about the same battery life as when you're running WinMo, but Android will bother you about low battery well before you're really running low. I've made a couple of calls and run for over two hours in Android with my battery meter in the red. There's a big risk of the battery not ever taking another charge if you drain it entirely, so don't do that unless you're ready to buy a new battery.

No, Android won't update automatically between builds. Hopefully this procedure makes each fresh installation as fast as possible. Good luck!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] gtdq:
The only SD card I have have is an 8gb. When I looked up my M.IP Default Profile, it was not my number and this phone has only been on USCC, I bought it on Black Friday. Do you think it is a return that someone else may have had? Are they getting billed for my data usage?

When you click the PA icon, the bottom left soft has an update option. Have you tried this? I know it will not auto update, but it might on demand? Thanks again for all of your help.
