[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] updiliman:
Hahaha.. This reminded me the time I rooted my phone. I used the r5 guide here in xda in rooting my desire, and after step2, on the recovery menu, I couldnt use the volume keys to scroll up and down the menu. At this point I thought my phone got bricked! and I had to repeat step2 again.. Only later did I realise you have to use the optical joystick...

That was a scary 5-10 minutes for me..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draiter:
Hello everyone...

Was just curious if anyone knew of a way to boost the volume coming from the ear piece on this phone? I have the I9000M.....

I have some hearing loss and find that the volume is a tad too low and I am constantly having to ask people to repeat themselves.... before you say it... yesssss, I have used the volume button...

I was reading the thread on the using the service mode app to change the ear phone audio... thought there might be something in there...

Thanks for your help in advance.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
Sorry for the NOOB question, but does anyone know if it is possible to install any of the HTC Sense apps on top of CyanogenMod 6?

I love the CyanogenMod ROM's, but there are also some things I like about HTC Sense too. In an ideal world, I'd like the following:

- CyanogenMod 6

- HTC Sense E-mail App

- HTC Sense Widgets

- AOSP Standard everywhere else... Contacts, SMS, etc.

Is this possible?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chandlerw88:
No impossible but you can find similar apps for each
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedge34:
Short and to the point answer is....

Nope, if you want sense, then run a sense rom. But you can use google to maybe find other applications that can mimick what you want to accomplish.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
Yes, I'm using Fancy Widget which is one of the most important... I just wish there was something like the Sense e-mail app. The AOSP e-mail app, isn't as user friendly... I've looked online and tried K9 (no good for Exchange, which is what I'm using) and Touchdown (doesn't integrate well with the rest of the UI)

Do you know if any of the Sense Froyo ROM's are supporting multiple exchange accounts yet? I know Cyanogen's does, but it's not Sense :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coppertop24:
No. Most HTC apps require the framework from a sense based rom. And the HTC widgets only work with Sense.

For future reference, questions like this should be posted in the general or apps forums, or if you really need to post it in the development section at least ask the question in the appropriate rom's thread. Not trying to be an a$$ but thought I would throw that out there before anyone jumped all over you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougdascenzo:
Did this really just get asked? again?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnathan9:
Q&A sounds like theright place to post this.

As other have already stated, try the market place for similar apps.

Cyanogen is open source so asking for sense apps is like asking for a pair shackles to go with your get out jail free card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popimpg:
And i quote from the man himself......

"THIS IS NOT HTC SENSE AND NEVER WILL BE. DO NOT ASK ABOUT IT IN THIS THREAD. THANK YOU."

if you know anything about cyanogen, which you should since you are using his rom he will never ever ever ever ever use anything but stock android thats one of the reasons that his roms are the best, plus he is the pioneer for android customization!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scooter185:
i dont believe the OP was asking for sense to be integrated into CM, just if htc widgets would still work, and if not for good replacements. Not everyone knows that they need the sense framework to function.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topdnbass:
Some have been ported over.

Search around.

Other's generally don;'t work. Sprint apps work regardless of framework.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalibar:
Yeah, I can understand where the OP's coming from. I love the CM ROMs, but there's a couple parts of Sense that I wish I could install piecemeal on top of it.

It would be ridiculous to imply that Cyanogen should ever incorporate them into his ROM since the lack of proprietary crap is his biggest attraction, but at the end of the day I still miss that stupid HTC weather widget. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
That's exactly right Scooter, thanks...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
Does anyone know if it is now possible to add multiple Exchange based e-mail accounts (Exchange ActiveSync) using the default e-mail app on HTC Sense Froyo?

I know n the Eclair Sense ROM it is NOT possible, and I was wondering if this had been addressed in the 2.2 update?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superlinkx:
Pretty sure it doesn't. Most things don't allow for more than one to be connected. The iPhone doesn't either. I don't know for sure, but it may be a licensing or some other agreement that prevents this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtkansan:
It doesn't. Stock froyo does. Ios 4 does. Palm pre does. HTC screwed up on this. Go use k9 mail... erg two programs to so the same thing... very annoying HTC!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt_TX:
Last time I tried K9 the exchange integration was really bad - in fact, I couldn't even get it working. Has this changed recently?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berzerker7:
iOS 4 actually has support for multiple exchange accounts.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technicalmajor:
The Iphone does, and so does the Samsung Galaxy S - It is a OS issue not a license issue.

You can if its enable add IMAP accounts, but this only works if you allow the protocol on your exchange box

I've been using ADW Launcher ever since I got my EVO and never had any problems, but now that I'm running Froyo I cannot seem to kill Sense and now they're both running at the same time. No matter how many time I kill Sense through the applications settings it always restarts. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a way to keep Sense from starting up again?
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
You can use an app like autostarts to prevent it from starting, or you can delete or rename rosie.apk
[EVO 4G General] om4:
install adw and start it, hit home and it should ask which to use, just to be on the safe side, go into settings applications, application management, htc sense, hit clear data, force stop, and make sure you clear the last option for default, that should take care of it

[Shift General] Tikras:
Hi

I'm having such problem. Tried different types of SD cards, first one was Trancend 16GB class 10 (high speed). Second one Trancend 8GB class 6 (medium speed). Third one some noname 4GB... So, I've got the same reading problem with all of them; intermittent reading and even card recognizing issue which is rendering SD card reader useless on device. I should highlight the thing that all cards perfectly being read in all other devices when pulled out of Shift and inserted in any of another devices. Tried to do different things, reinstalled drivers few times and so far... Seems this is strange hardware issue (compatibility issue?) arises in windows 7 enviroment. It's so upsetting, I don't want to come back to slugish Vista but I really need SD card reader!

I did not see many posts about it, so is anyone else having similar problem? Can you please share ideas and solutions of the problem if you overcame it.

Installation was a success and very easy

but i still have the same problem with MicroSD card in internal SD card reader slot

I will check for EC driver i see somme where and tell you for result
[Shift General] bluesbrothers93:
still have SD PB

ok,

know i can acces to my microSD card in the SD card reader slot

with MicroSD to SD adapter

but when i use my other adapter that is

MicroSD to MiniSD to SD card adapter

the Shif ask me to format the MicroSD card

even if i use my USB Transcend SD card reader directly on USB

with the MicroSD to MiniSD to SD card adapter

In my XP PC no problem with this Dual Adapter !

So originally when I bought this phone I decided I was no going to root it because I was afraid of voiding the warranty or bricking the phone. Now I kind of want to root it but I have a few (dumb) questions:

1. What are ROMS? I hear of custom ROMS and I dont know what they do or where to get them. Help?

2. What is "Superuser Access" or whatever its called that gives you the rooting powers?

3. Why root? What are the advantages/disadvantages?

4. When I root, what are some of the first things I should do? Like do I have to restore my contacts, pics, etc or back anything up to my computer?

5. And last, what are some of the best apps to get after root?

Thank you guys for the feedback. This community really helps whenever I have dumb questions.

[Vibrant General] Nokternal:
I'm fairly new to it myself and took a bit to figure out but I've become pretty comfortable with it.

The 2.2 Froyo update will be here soon enough so I haven't even bothered looking at any ROM replacemnts.

The Superuser Permissions will show up after you root the phone. It allows the programs that need these permissions to use em. You'll get a dialog box asking you to allow and if you want to remember the preference when you first run an app that needs this.

Several neat/tweaking apps require a rooted phone. You can also delete alot of the crap that came on the phone that you don't need once it's rooted. I like to tweak and customize alot which is why I decided to go ahead and root it.

I'd definitely download a good backup app and save everything. I use Ti Backup myself. I also did the RyanZa's lag fix. It makes a nice difference. Benchmark went from around 900ish to 1800-2000. I've also removed the boot up/shut down sounds and installed an app that kills the lockscreen so all I have to do is hit the power buttom and I'm at my home screen. There's a few other apps I'm using that require a rooted phone but that's the highlight.
[Vibrant General] Nokternal:
The first post in the Tips/Tricks sticky is a good place to start if you haven't already looked at it.

I'd also suggest doing the GPS fix if you haven't already. It makes a nice difference.

Home screen replacements are a good start too but don't think they necessarily require a rooted phone. I'm using LauncherPro with a custom dock bar and it looks nothing like it did to begin with now.
[Vibrant General] troy9749:
Wireless tether is a must have that requires root. Other than that, I haven't modded my Vibrant. On my rooted G1 I changed ROMS almost as often as my socks and installed everything under the sun. It made a world of difference on that phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a7ended:
Situation:

I have recently flashed the modaco r5 for hero 2.1. I noticed that my GPS was not working, but it has always been a bit iffy. Doing some research I read that I needed the Mobile Network (use phone for data connection when WIfi is unavailable) checked. Without turning on wifi, my GPS worked excellently, fixed to 8 satellites in a second.

Problem:

I turned on my wifi, but b/c of the Mobile Network option, I think it switches to Wifi as its primary data source and neglects the GPS. So the GPS does not work until I turned off the wifi.

Question:

I know people usually don't use GPS and Wifi together, but is there a way to get them both working together?

Thanks everyone and much appreciated!

SWYPE (Vibrant) MetaMorph Themes

Updated 8/19 with Sketch Pad Swype

Updated 8/20 Purpinkle Swype & Status Bar

Here are a bunch of Swype MetaMorphs I have been working on for the Vibrant. I plan on making more so keep checking in, and feel free to make suggestions!

I am by no means into any major developing or coding. I'm just into basic theming at this point. I make these because I enjoy mixing up my Vibrant and proving why Android is the best OS.

A special thanks to hoey2011 that got me started working on these by being the first I know of to create swype themes.

(Unzip & Apply) with MetaMorph. Use at your own risk! I have tested all on my Vibrant first with no problems. Reboot is not necessary.

Toss a donation in the hat if you like this artist's work :-)

Ok here is something for the ladies. Hook your girlfriend's Vibrant up! (or maybe you like purple yourself... not that anything is wrong with that)

I Included a Status Bar Morph too on this one! (remixed clearbar posted by junkdruggler)

PurpinkleSwype.zip

Purpinklebar.zip

This is an updated Purpinkle status bar with no battery indicator. This is made for applying on top of the many new (more accurate) battery inidcators you can find on xda). So flash your new battery indicator, then morph this on top.

Question.....

Will this work with other phones? I have swype on my rooted htc Hero.:D

Would love a themed version of swype i was wondering when someone would do this :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] motorjonny:
I'm pretty sure these will only work on the Vibrant because they replace files with the same names.. If any developers provide me with the necessary files pulled from various other phones/roms I can theme them out. As much as i would like to make them for other phones, I would hate to not be able to test them myself. But we shall see...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] hoey2011:
Well, my suggestion would be, instead of browsing the Vibrant forum, which contains WVGA resolution themes, etc., why not browse the G1/Magic/HVGA resolution boards? If anyone has made themes for Swype there, they will work with your version, since you have HVGA resolution as well :)

My old Swype thread in the G1 forum is here:

Check that first, then if you have questions, search for HVGA Swype metamorph. Most likely mine will come up along with some others.

The files in the stock vibrant metamorph are LITERALLY pulled directly from the apk used to display them. Also, there is no such thing as "the" galaxy s rom, as there are way too many variants now to single it out like that, like we could with the G1, Hero, etc. I have a GT9000 thread in themes and apps, maybe you could look for some help there? I do not have a 9000 to test on or I would, but seeing as how much of the basic software is the same, Swype, Samsung Keyboard, Touchwiz, etc., I don't see why these morphs are not aligned properly.
