[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
it is, but for 1, it's not pulling any data downtime or otherwise, unless you maually refresh.

As long as it's not updating/notifying in the background you should be good.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
Doesn't the twitter app run in the background and sync every hr or however often you specify or is it push and I'm not seeing it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
no, it checks in the background (not push) based on the frequency you set it to (which is a big battery waster) - I thought you said you set it to manual, so in that case, it's only checking when you manually tell it to.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berardi:
ok so your vote is to keep it to the texts and use the manual setting then?

Thanks!

to save battery? yep

http://www.merimobiles.com/Ramos_W7_Capacitive_touchscreen_Android_Market_p/meri0377.htm

Only runs Cupcake though. :( And I'm not familiar with the Rockchip RK2808 at all.

http://www.merimobiles.com/Witstech_A81E_Android_2_2_Flash_10_1_App_Market_p/meri0306.htm

This one has a resistive touch screen, but runs Froyo and is powered by a Cortex A8 CPU.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaemonAshra:
personally, i think the witstech a81e looks the best. resistive touch isnt bad at all if done right (touch pro 2 prooved it to me). the fact that it comes with 2.2 and the reviews support the fact that it works makes it a much more interesting product than the ramos tablet.

if i had $200 to throw, i would go with that one. and thanks for pointing these tablets out too. i haven't seen much on the news sources about this market yet. glad to know its getting bigger.

EDIT: oh, and obvious point of worth: Kick Stand built in. that is an auto-buy to me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dany0:
The Ramos is much more awesome seriously.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bcpk:
I bought an A81E, can't wait to get it. The resistive TS seems pretty good, for resistive.

Advantages over the W7:

kickstand

removable battery

matte screen

cortex a8, so waaay faster than the rk2808 (see http://mp4nation.net/blog/2010/08/4-way-mid-browser-speed-showdown/)

disadvantages:

larger, not pocketable

resistive

lower DPI (same res)

smaller internal storage
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dany0:
Okay but I find ramos awesome because:

The looks - it's like futuristic grid-computing tablet with 8exaflops FPU :D It looks better then anything Apple ever designed

It's great as MID - it's so thin! And fits in pocket!

And at last - it's AWESOME as entertaiment machine! :D It's CPU is still quite good at 3D! And movies? AWESOOOME!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bateluer:
Well, its a tablet, not really designed to be pocketable. :P

I'm tempted by the A81E myself, but I'm not sure there's any development going on for it, root access, custom firmwares, etc. Seems like it might be a good device for some community love, more so than something like the Augen GenTouch which could be completely discontinued before too long.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bcpk:
This might be of interest to you: http://www.slatedroid.com/nationite-midnite-android-tablet-discussion/

It's still fairly quiet right now, but once people start getting the MIDnite version from MP4nation I think it will get quite a bit more popular.

I'm planning to do a video review to get the word out there ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bateluer:
Slate Droid is timing out for me right now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bcpk:
Yeah, they're having server issues :|
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kjhadfield:
me 2 :D time seems 2 stand still when your waiting on a package
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bateluer:
When's it arrive? I get paid in a day or two, still on the fence. Has the A81E been rooted? Haven't really been following tablets much, first got interested when I heard there was a CM flavor coming for the Augen Gentouch, but the Witstech device looks like a much better gadget. On paper at least.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] goku31640:
I am also thinking about getting the A81E, I get paid on thursday, so thats when I will be ordering it. Is anybody working on this device on the rooting and custom Roms front?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bateluer:
Thats what I want to know. :P Doubt we'll see much serious development of Android tablets until the first tier vendors, Asus, MSI, Samsung, etc, launch their higher end devices.

If I were to order an A81E on 18 Aug, think it would arrive before 1 Sept?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dany0:
I've found that the A81E has a PowerVR SGX GPU that can do 10MPoly/s so it'll be like a little bit faster iPhone 3g in 3d gaming.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kjhadfield:
mine is still in shipping. this is w/ merimobiles. ordered on a sun nite, email mon day about an issue w/ different billing an shipping addresses. order confirmation/started processing tues day. tracking recieved fri nite. tracking # still cant find as of mon nite. sent email waiting for reply.

so not that fast 4 me so far, 7 days from order date w/ no weekends included. kinda wish it be faster cuz my bday was last sat. this was my present 2 myself. even if i could find tracking of it, i be happy

maybe you want 2 check out jt shop? heard of fast shippment from them on slatedroid.com not sure where you at, euro, us, other? they say 3-5 days shipping but proccesing can take 2-4 days and even that isnt really reliable

slatedroid site does have 1 or 2 customs,roms, on there. dont know if thaat roots it? or if there is even to do it w/out the custom rom? still a baby when it comes 2 android. keep you informed on when i receive it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bcpk:
The A81E has a rooted custom ROM that includes market access. It's on slatedroid.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bateluer:
Am I just not seeing any changelog for the rom? Like to know what I'm flashing before I flash it.

Check out JT Shop, its $200 with GPS and includes a free extra battery (usually $10 plus postage), looked the best deal to me!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ed02:
Just purchase my phone about two weeks ago, I been noticing that the battery runs out quick is there a rom you guys advise I should get to work out my battery problem? if so can you give me a link to it? and yes I have use the "search" tool but I would like some input from people actually using the roms and what they think.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] citanes-26:
Are you rooted? Are you using a task killer? Have you checked in settings to see what's using your battery? Mine always showed the screen using the most, set to auto.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Djd10:
If you open up the app menu, and go to the "Help Centre" it gives tips on how to "Train the battery". Haven't tried them yet, but seems to be a logical solution, so hope it helps even jus' a bit innit.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ed02:
Thank you guys for the response I rooted my phone and installed a custom room its working great and battery life is better
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] rendut:
hmmm....
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Bateluer:
Just to add some information to the thread. If you use a task killer, be careful not to use a kill all function. The task killer will kill processes only to have Android start them again, leading to an endless loop of restarts, which will drain your battery and adversely effect performance.

I get excellent battery life using Cyanogenmod or Sapphire, where I'm at right now.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ed02:
Thanks for the info Bateluer, by the way im using SimpleROM v1.0 on my droid haven't had any problems with it.
[Vibrant General] Yogi76:
My wife is having a problem that when she opens the default Email app, it displays the prompt to setup a new account. The problem is that she already has her two Exchange accounts on the phone. They both show up fine in Settings -> Accounts and Sync, they just don't work in Email. To resolve the problem, I delete both the accounts from Accounts and Sync and then re-add them. They both then work fine. However, this have happened a few times on her phone and it's kind of pain to delete and re-add the accounts over and over. I've not seen the problem on my Vibrant. Has anyone else experienced this problem and, if so, did you find a solution?

Thanks,

Yogi
[Vibrant General] Hund98:
I had this exact issue. I even went so far as to do a "hard reset" (i.e. Reinstall all software) and still had it happen to me. I contacted T-Mobile and they told me that I had already done everything they would suggest so they shipped me a replacement phone. So far I have not had it happen again but I have only had the new phone for a day.
[Vibrant General] Yogi76:
Unfortunately, this is already her second phone. We exchanged the first because of freezing and connectivity issues and this one has been much better in that regard, on par with mine. I don't want to have to tell her that she got ANOTHER lemon and we need to exchange it again. I switched her over from an iPhone because we wanted to move to T-Mobile and their much more economical Even More Plus plan. If I tell her she has another bad phone, she'll probably just want to give up and switch back to AT&T and the iPhone.
[Vibrant General] Yogi76:
Okay, so we exchanged my wife's phone again and everything worked fine for about a week. Then, she added her AOL account and within a day, the settings were deleted again. Now, the problems is the AOL account doesn't show up in Account Settings, so the only way I see to remove it is to wipe the phone completely.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beandog:
I have CM6 RC2 on my Evo, and I love it. I know that everything is fast enough to provide a smooth-as-glass experience because if I (for example) flick to start a web page scrolling, it scrolls smoother than an iPhone until it stops. But when I actually use my finger to drag, I get minor jerkiness the whole way.

I'm thinking this has to be because the touch panel is not as accurate as it should be, so the events that are delivered to the OS (and on to apps) are not as smooth as my actual finger's motion.

Since CM6 is built from source, I'm thinking about getting into the OS and finding a way to filter those touch events and smooth things out. I'm thinking something as simple as a 150ms or so running-average filter that resets when you start or stop touching the screen.

Does anyone know if something like this has been attempted in the past? If so, where I can find it to try it or contribute? If not, where I might look in Android's source to start building it?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] hah2110:
I'm using Skyraider 2.5.2 (FroYo). Where are all the Sensed themes? I see the one blue one, looking for more.

Thx
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
I am working on a red and black theme. This theme will be a complete rework of almost every aspect of the phone. At least 90% of the icons will be new, new taskbar, lockscreen, etc. This theme will be a complete facelift of the default sense theme and not just a recolor.

So far it has taken me a week and I am not even 50% finished although I hope to have a release by the end of the week. I hope to include a full zip and a metamorph release.

Anyways here is some screenshots for you so far. Still not completely happy with the notification area (icons resting on the red bar) and the slider window...among other things

Theme is called - Rule The Air :D
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] blackdog2402:
That looks amazing! I'll definitely be watching for updates.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] hah2110:
Is this theme for Sense?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
yes

/10char
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] b1gg134:
are you removing all the sense widgets? they are the only thing making these phones useable.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
This is a sense theme, so to answer your question, no, I will not be removing anything. Even better I will be theming all the sense widgets to match the theme :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jarniella:
looks cool so far.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] scottishwarrior:
Rule the air

Very Nice looking theme. I will watch for a release.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] TPR300C:
Are you planning on only having a red version or is there a possibility of a blue one?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
Only a red version, sorry
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Milton1964:
Very nice work. I also have been looking for a different Theme. Been using Blue Raider 21 detox its cool, but yous really looks like you took your time on this. very good detail.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] evilone1969:
wow

this just looks amazing, i cannot wait!!!

great job, thanks for ur hard work
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Namolas:
Rule The Air looks stunning. I cannot wait :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nomsy79:
Niiice! Definitely like the red. Excellent work. Keeping an eye out for this one.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
So the theme is coming along nicely! Did a little bit of cleanup with icons in the notification area and the notification dropdown area. There are still a lot of icons that I am looking to replace, still a ways to go. I also want to move the smooth circle battery up a bit so its not resting on the red line.

Here are some more teasers for you guys hehe :p

I will be working on the buttons soon so they blend more with the theme.

I cant decide if I like the Rule The Air logo in the notification background. I think this area almost looks a little to busy, what do you guys think?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Namolas:
I think it looks badass. Unless you had a full page of notifications going on, then it might get in the way of the words, but I wouldn't even care. Honestly the Rule The Air logo is one of the things that made this theme jump out at me :)

Looks amazing :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rsantana:
This is an awesome looking theme for Sense whenever it is released if by this week or the next I am definitely getting it, looks hot great job. Will be donating this weekend.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] LeoD:
logo looks real nice

So does the rest of your work. Love what you did with the launcher! This is what keeps me going to vanilla but looks like this is going to change that. Going to be a keeper for me. Nice work!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
Actually the launcher that was in the screenshots is LauncherPro and the popup window is folder organizer. Here are a couple screenshots with the launcher and app drawer.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Namolas:
^^WOW man, I am having a hard time keeping my pants on here...... looks amazing.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] LeoD:
TMI. Rotflmao. It looks sharp!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] TheHouseIT:
Looks really nice .. but when can we get download links?? Love the Launcher... can you give a link to the icons your using for it?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Milton1964:
I like I said before awesome Detail job. Please let us know when you finish this. Keep up the good work.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] emtothaem:
I think the rule the air logo is perfect, not at all is it "to busy" I appreciate the teasers but the teasing is killing me. I want this theme so bad I can taste it!! It will be the best thing released in the entire "Themes and Apps" section. Is it possible you could give a round-a-bout eta on this? Its driving me crazy that I've witnessed such artistry but can not grasp it. =P
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rcicu:
looks great! currently I'm running an EVO Theme on my INC... :eek:

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I know many of you are looking forward to the theme and like I stated earlier I will have a release this weekend. :D

So I have been using LauncherPro forever now and with this new theme I think I just might go back to sense. It just looks damn sexy!

More teasers guys, sorry couldnt resist!!!!

ps I know I need to change the am/pm in the clock to a black font.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] LeoD:
So I have been using LauncherPro forever now and with this new theme I think I just might go back to sense. It just looks damn sexy!

Unless you know a way to turn them 4 rows into 5 if even possible? I'm by no means a themer I will have to stay with launcher pro. That is the one thing that keeps me from using sense.

Of course thank you for your hard work!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
The 5 rows is what has kept me with launcherpro as well...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] starvenmarven:
What Rom you running with that theme?

WHat clock is that? Is that a widget? I cant seem to find it. The one that is digital on the left and the weather on the right.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] djkms:
Its the htc sense clock that comes stock with the sense theme custom colored and changed around a bit by me. It will be released with my theme.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] palomosan:
It's coming up nice man, keep up the good work, I'll represent once you posted.

One question, what do you think about changing some of the not Android stock Icons, like Rom Manager, WiFi Tether, Shoot me, Advanced task manager, Titanium backup, navigation, places directories, you know to include them in the theme, thanks.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] southpawmedic:
Im looking forward to trying this one as well since I can't get mashup's revolution port installed at all.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] IShootPixels:
I'm running skyraider with the blue detox theme right now and can't wait for this red beauty, but while you're doing it can you add in a red trace line for the security pattern lock? They didn't do it on the blue detox so when it shows up in green it makes my eyes bleed. I just turned the line off altogether but it'd be nice to have it in the theme color. It turns red if you screw up entering the pattern but I thought it'd be cool if it were red as you traced it and maybe blue if you screw up. Just a thought and keep up the amazing work!

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mhut:
Hi.

Have this strange "problem" a few days ago, on the notification bar. It´s displaying all the time 3 apps in "incoming"... (look the screenshot for better understanding, below "Entrante" are Notes, Folder Organizer and Timescape).

Don´t know the reason and only installed recently HandcentSms, but i can´t figure if that can be related to that, so i´m looking for a solution for this.

Any clues or help please ??

(As a new user, i´m not allowed to post images, but that´s the link to the screenshot anyway, so take a look please).

i38.tinypic.com/30c25xt.jpg

Thanks so much in advance.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Have you tried restarting?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mhut:
Yes, of course.

Also tried to kill Timescape proccess, but no luck (the proccess autostarts ifself every time, but also don´t know if that´s related to the issue...).:confused:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Whats your firmware version? You could try updating from se to the latest
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mhut:
Phone is updated to the last available version on the Sony Ericsson Update program.

A few minutes ago, i´ve uninstalled Folder Organizer (as was the first app showed on the bar) and seems all 3 notifications are gone instantly, and no noticed anymore until now. So it seems the issue is related to that app, but can´t figure out the reason of showing that. I´ll post next if the issue re-appears.

For now, i have to search some icon-changer replacement :(

hi to everyone i m kinda new to these things but i have a question and maybe is stupid:

when passing to one rom to another is possibile to restore backupped data like sms/apps etc.. ?

thank you to anyone who is willing to help;)
[Legend General] c_man:
Hopefully you're using ROM Manager and Clockwork Recovery to change ROMs, etc.

If so, in there, you can back up a ROM before applying a new one.

If you restore your previous backup, your apps, homescreens, settings, should also be restored.
[Legend General] kdma:
yes i use those apps but for example if i load cyanogen and try to load a backup with rom manager all i get is that my phone get rolled back with old rom, my point is to have the new rom but with the old data
[Legend General] AllWin:
Personaly i use "MyBackup" to backup system settings, apps, call log, bookmarks, alarms, dictionary, calendar etc., and "SMS Backup & Restore" for messages (it does MUCH better this job then "MyBackup"). Both apps are for free on the Market.
[Vibrant General] kmfisher:
Is there any way to cache or download the data for Google maps? I'm going out of the country and taking the Vibrant. I'd like to use the map (and broken GPS), but data is $15 per MB for international T-Mobile. Is there any way to download the map data and have it cached for a week? Thanks.
[Vibrant General] ttabbal:
The license for google maps specifically says you aren't allowed to do that. You need to get something like Navdroyd that allows you to download map data. That one uses OSM data, but it's more detailed in other countries. The US data is a little rough. You might be able to get a better deal on data using a pre-paid SIM in the country you are going to as well. Might be edge/gprs only, but it's good enough to maps.
