[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gdog1977:
So the best android build so far is defintely is the Stone series w/ Sense IMO. But if you don't want the Sense home screen just install Launcher Pro from the market. Then disable Sense, click the menu (windows) button, choose Applications, choose manage application, find Sense and clear defaults. Click the home button and you will be prompted to choose a launcher, select Launcher Pro. Done.

You still have the HTC keyboard and dialer, which is what I prefer, you cannot use HTC widgets, but lose the HTC Launcher. Best of both worlds for myself.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] niiza:
lol take your jolly time, ill be looking forward to it. i love darkstones builds but i HATE sense @_@ could anyone recommend another good 'stock' build??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] palosjr:
hahah oh man the age old quotes of XDA

in any case - No you cannot just take parts from a sense build and throw them in a stock froyo build, you need the sense framework.

also, if you want to know if something works, just test it out. if it doesnt, let us know and then try something else. All known things happened via trial and error.

[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
don't know if this thread is still active, but as I'm unfamiliar with editing wikis, but I'm full of ideas (and I have a big mouth), I thought I'd list some discussion items here. I'm working on the assumption that the wiki should be one of the, if not the, first place new users shouldbe looking to get information.

1 - remove the radios from the rom section, and give it it's own section on the main wiki page - it's too confusing for new users to locate this information under roms

2 - instead of just linking to roms, kernels, radios, etc. from the main page there should be a few sentances on what each is above the link to the new page - something simple defining each term, and some basic instructions on how to flash each (what should be wiped, what goes on top of what, etc).

3 - would also like to see some info on the main wiki page on nandroid (and the importance of nand backups), hboot, recovery info for both amon ra and clockwork, what wiping means and what it does, themes and themeing, and possibly even a section on popular apps and what they do, like setcpu (and what it means to over/underclock), various launchers (like rosie, adw, launcherpro, etc), and various benchmarking tools and what they measure.

I could probably think up a bunch more, but I'll see what kind of response this gets before posting more :D

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinnu:
Hi Guys

I am experiencing the incorrect phone lock problem. After a soft reset, the phone lock code is not accepted no matter how many times I give it correct. I tried all the possibilities listed in the forums like taking out battery, using the red button on the back to soft reset, etc. I think the only thing I can do is to hard reset as there is no solution to this problem as of now.

Unfortunately I didn't enable automatic periodic backups on my phone. So, with a hard reset I am going to lose all my contacts, text messages and other data. I am not worried about losing them except the text messages, I desperately need them.

I would like to know if there is there still a possibility that I can backup or sync text messages and if possible the contacts as well. I tried using active sync with the phone locked, it didn't work. Hope someone could help me with this.

Thank you

[General Questions and Answers] rickyq12:
Ever since I started running the Aloysius rom on my Sprint HTC Hero...I've been having problems with my Google Navigation. It'll open up and pull up address,miles,eta of arrival and will even have the voice telling me where to go. But no visual of the map itself. After about 20 or so seconds...it'll tell me that the app is having problems and needs to force close.

Has anyone had this problem with the rom or Google Nav????

Can it be an issue with just Goolge Navigation???

Thanks.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2182971:
I was wondering if someone could create (or if there already is) an app that will dim the screen a lot more than just setting it to 0. I work late hours and come home, just wanting to unwind and play some solitaire. I'm blinded by the screen. I know that there are night/clock apps that can do this. Thanks!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] chadti99:
I second this request. The screen is quite blinding in a dark room. A night mode would be nice too have.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] shznit:
I would pay for this app, blows my mind how they could make a phone that can't dim lower. Even when setting brightness to 10 with Dimmer it's a real pain using this phone in the dark.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] merchomini:
I would also throw down some of my hard earned dollars for something like this, i want to preserve my battery and the dimmest setting isnt making me feel happy about things
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kizer:
Why not just slide your finger across the task bar from right to left and it would lower the brightness to the lowest setting. To brighten go the other way.

Way easier than another app.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2182971:
Thanks, but not what I was talking about. I'm talking about lowering the brightness past that for nighttime usage. I know it's possible; I have a bedside app that lowers it way past the default.

BTW, that trick only works with Auto Brightness off.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bstromberg:
yeah this would be nice. also, having those cool filters like on CM6 would be nice too. the red filter is great for checking your phone in a dark movie theater.
[Captivate General] ssbmx90:
Can someone please give me detailed instructions how to install quake 3 on the samsung captivate
[Captivate General] Bjd223:
You have to be able to sideload applications and/or install non market apps. There are multiple threads on how to do this, which typically also include rooting. Anyway I would

1. Root the phone

2. Install the Phones drivers on PC

3. Download Qwaak3 Arena for your device

4. Unpack the rar file to somewhere on your PC

5. Copy the quake3 folder to sdcard/ (this is the internal SD card NOT the external sdcard/sd)

6. Put your phone in Debug Mode (Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging)

7. Fire up Droid Explorer and load the APK file (Tools > Manage Packages > Install Package)
[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
I cant install it using a powermac.

I download the apk

I cant open on my mac

I tried to install the apk onto my sd card

The file is there but when i install it and try to open it the game force closes.

Im a noob so I figure Im doing something wrong. I have some experience with installing files like this onto mobiles but new to android. any ideas?
[Captivate General] K2340:
*EDIT: This is for vanilla kwaak3. Not the kwaak3 arena that was pasted in the Captivate Apps forum*

I just got it working on my Captivate. I'm using Win7 64 bit though. You do not need to root to install and play Kwaak3.

Download adb - I got it through the Android SDK (you would only need to install the tools, nothing else unless you were going to develop). Then use adb to install Kwaak3.

List devices:

adb devices

If you don't have any Android emulators running, it should be the only thing that shows up. It'll be a bunch of letters and numbers followed by the word "device".

Then use adb to install the kwaak3.apk file. The '-s' flag designates which device to use - if you have multiple Android devices plugged in or emulators running.

adb -s <put your device ID here. It's the string of letters and numbers from above without the brackets> install kwaak3.apk

Then use adb to push each individual .pk3 file onto the sdcard. Use pak0.pk3 from the quake3 demo or from your cd if you own it. Take pak1-pak8 from the Quake3 1.32 point release.

You have to do it individually for each .pk3, for example, pak0.pk3...

adb -s <device> push <full path to pak0.pk3 without brackets> /sdcard/quake3/baseq3/

Once all .pk3's are in that folder, you're good to go.

Hope that helps.

Hi anyone,

Do you know any good collection of icons that I can use with Android?

A good and have a huge kind of icons ... not just handful.

I know the "Suave" collection, but they are just like iPhone icons. They are very good and has a lot of icons (a lot !).

I checked couple of Better Android icon packs, some of them are good, but most are not. And most of the time it does not contain a lot of icons to choose for.

So, please share if you know any good collection of icons here :)

Thanks.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fifo_thekid:
I've followed the following step:

1- Partitioned my Nokia 8GB Class 4 MiniSD Card with one 5.76GB Fat32 partition and one 2GB Ext4 Partition

2- Formatted internal SD

3- Flashed the I9000XWJM5 firmware

4- Installed Samset 1.9b

5- Flashed SamSetKernel_v1.8_PDA

6- Installed LauncherPRO

7- Installed AutoKiller with Optimum and Aggressive Settings

Starting from 4th step, everything is super-lagging!

The phone is not useful at all

When I use Quadrant it hangs at Database Writes for more than 5 minutes

When it finished, I get 1700+ score!!

What should I do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Retry over from scratch - it doesn't seem like it is your SD card, since at step 4 you haven't gotten there yet. So probably something went wrong with the update.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sedinix:
+1 I flash JM5 + SamSet 1.9b without fix lag and kernel and everythings work fine.

After kernel and fix/lag i got a many lags (black screens) and after install some apps FC's so we must w8 for solution :/ I don't slow down my phone only for score in quadrant.

Samset & fix/lag authors make very good job but still not perfect. I hope they dont stop make updates and FIXes.

THX
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mormegil:
I have the same issue with ext4 lag fix albeit with JM2 firmware. I'm pretty sure it will be the same with JM5 so I didn't bother trying.

Mimo's fix just gives the illusion that your device is actually faster when in actual fact it's the opposite. Constant extended black screens before program loading. Quadrant getting stuck for 3-5mins during database write (test #3). Just overall unresponsiveness basically.

I've just reverted the app files back into its original location (/data/data) and all is good now. I still have mimo's kernel installed, but I think it shouldn't affect anything since it's just mounting the ext4 partition and nothing else. Too lazy to flash back to stock JM2 so I'll just wait until something considerably better comes along before doing that.

Just to add: With the lag fix, I went to bed with 100% battery but when I woke up the next day, it had drained to 74%. After removing the fix, my battery dropped by just 1% after a night's rest. Every other variable kept constant of course.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fifo_thekid:
I've just formatted EVERYTHING (internal and external SDs repartitioned)

Then repeated all the steps above from scratch

It's super fast now ;). Even Quadrant is not hanging anymore at Database Writes

I think that the problem is related to formatting the Ext4 partition

EDIT: My Quadrant Score is low again, but the phone is very fast :-S
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
The SD card lag fix relies on your SD card being high quality and fast. Most SD cards are slow and error prone. If your device is hanging and getting black screens after the move to EXT4 SD, then it is your SD card that is bad. :(

With a class 6 transcend 8gb card with 1gb EXT4 partition, I never see any black screens and a quadrant score of 1700+ on JG9 Africa firmware. Everything is very fast. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fifo_thekid:
Then why after formatting it was very fast then after 3 hours it is super slow even after restarting?!! :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Your quadrant score is low again, which means that you're back to running off internal rom rather than the external SD card. ;)

You would either need a faster SD card, or you can just wait a while for someone to sort out the internal ROM problems. Someone smart should figure it out sooner or later. :D

EDIT:

Ooops, misread. I have no idea, mine is always quick...

Maybe only part of your SD card is faulty?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matty___:
The moment lag starts on my phone with samset. 1. 9 my CPU monitor shows 95% IO and 100% CPU usage. Even killing all apps doesn't solve this only reboot does.

This happened now for the 3rd time in 2 days.
