I apologize for the revival of this thread but have you guys tried out the new 'itching thumb' task switcher on the market? It's similar to this but uses a more palm OS like method and allows a double tap home configuration so can be easily used with launcher pro.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lilchip85:
Itching thumbs is pretty good. I'm deciding which one I want to stay with although I think double tapping home is easier then long pressing search imho.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
I don't like 'itching thumb' but thanks :P
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lionsson:
Wow itching thumb just got an update.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] teihoata:
Yup finally high quality large screenshots (press the search button to toggle size). If only the scrolling was smoother, only thing holding it back now IMHO
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lionsson:
Itching Thumb Beta

Add-On for your favorite Launcher allowing tasks to be managed visually and through gestures.

Swipe up to kill task (need root)

Click on the QR from your Nexus One
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] starfarer:
which one of these 2 can be launched from double press Home? Current set up long press search -> dialer one and long press Home -> Screen off.

on my N1 CM6, it looses the state of opened app. Eg I've viewing a sms from certain contact, view email, view a folder in EStrong, go back to sms which is not on previous state, back to email; again lists whole inbox, back to Estrong which again is on root dir and not in folder that I've left open. Is is how android (and these task switcher) supposed to work?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] predator290:
High Quality screenshots

How do u get them to show up in high quality? My phone is rooted and it just looks like it makes the pics bigger so when u see them they look distorted. I have the high quality checked.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] predator290:
Nevermind, i got it working. I had to make itching thumbs the home app. i only had it as the long press home with widget locker as home.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] netninja:
Can you tell me how I can make it the home app?

I'm using launcherpro and cyanogen 6.0 for N1.

thanks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
Does anybody know how to get rid of the dock in Itching Thumbs so only the cards show up? A lot of screen shots I have seen have no dock, and it looks much nicer.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lebog:
Just found this app.. liking it so far. I think you disable the dock by enabling Gestures.

Also, I use Launcher Pro and set one of my dock "Swipe Gesture Actions" to be Itching Thumb.. so now I just swipe up and I get the the cards.. I wasn't real fond of the double tap action.
[XPERIA X10 General] sungrad:
Today I experienced a problem with my phone for the first time since I got it in April, but 2 days after updating the firmware.

When attempting to view the right side of the home screen, it wouldn't let me, it simply bounced back to the middle screen. A restart fixed this but I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem, or could shed any light on the cause?

[Galaxy Spica Accessories] GFXi0N:
I dont seem to find it anywhere... there must be somehow to hold this device in the car, when using as GPS....

I already have the charger, but finding a suitable car holder is a pain!!!

The ones you find (not original ones) usually mess around with some of the side buttons, like the cammera..... leaving them pressed alll the time......

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy Spica Accessories] Cinkers:
Try this one from Nokia 5800 (original). I bought it and it fits very well. It's solid and very cheap (you can find it on ebay for something about 6 EUR). Only sometimes holder is pressing the volume down button but a quick regulation of phone solves this problem. As I said, I'm very pleased of this solution. I bought mine in Poland for 4 EUR.
[Galaxy Spica Accessories] STELLANOVA:
I use one I got with my Nokia E52 (original car holder) and it's fits perfectly.
[Galaxy Spica Accessories] vkmaxx:
The easies way is to go to the nearest shop and try a few holders ourselfs, instead of buying one via Internet form someone who's claiming that it will fit.

I got the tutorials to downgrade form hboot .92 to .80.

Using Unbranded Desire and Amoled screen.

All precaution already been taken.

But when i load the .zip file into the SD card, it wont be detected in the Hboot menu.

I wonder if anyone can share their expert opinion lolz~

Thanks anyone that is willing to reply :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kulset:
I used this tutorial when i downgraded, worked without any problems.

(did not use a gold card though, since i had a unbranded phone)

Good Luck :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
The zip needs to be called PB99IMG.zip (or something like that, refer to the guide) and not PB99IMG.zip.zip - make sure it's named correctly and it's on the root of your SD card and not in a folder

The question i am asking what is the safest speed for me to set in the file for better performance. nbh
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] cnigro1279:
Kaiser OC..

Using Rogue Tools, I can run 500MHz without problems. Does use a bit more battery and turns the device into a hand warmer but seems pretty stable. Some run upwards of 520MHz and some do not oc at all. Running Linpack to check performance gains left me wondering if it is worth overclocking at all....

Hope this helps...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tjsooley:
thanks the tools work fine.

have anybody noticed that using android on nand for system and data with no oc the battery is worse than windows mobile
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] cnigro1279:
Yep...

Battery life will be shortened using most any android device...I disable data, wifi and bluetooth when not needed and I'll go a day and a half at best. If you search the forums here you'll see that most every Kaiser Android user just charges every night....

Also...If you choose to leave data enabled, you can prolong your battery life by selecting to use 2G rather than 3G.....it does help battery life a bit....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
Actually, not only kaiser android users, pretty near every android user, my G needs charged every night also, just glad I trained myself on kaiser first before getting my G1 ;)

As I have mentioned before, ( many many times, lol), battery calibration is also helped a lot by charging overnight also.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
I got a Huawei U8100 a few days ago (to cheap to resist as it was only €100) and battery life seems pretty much as bad as with my Kaiser. Forcing 2G and leaving mobiled data off when not needed is pretty much what you need to do with just about every Android phone to improve the situation.

yeah that sucks...here is a slightly faster way to do it...

disable "sense/touchflo"...then go to your text msgs...now you can go back as far as you like without getting older having to press "older"...

reenable touchflo when you're done, if you wish...

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flawd:
Every once in a while I would notice, when I unlocked my phone, it would say "Emergency Calls Only" as if I didn't have a SIM card in.

Everything would still work after that such as text messages and calls, so I just figured it was a weird issue with Cyanogen 6 RC1.

Starting today, I was getting that message every single time, and also a notification that I couldn't register on T-Mobile's network.

I got on T-Mobile's live chat help, and they said there's nothing wrong with the service in my area. The person also had me tell him the SIM card number to ensure they had the right one in their system, which they did.

After this, I figured it might still be because I'm running CM RC1 so I upgraded to RC3 and I"m still having the same issue.

T-Mobile's "my account" program is no longer set up, so I don't get the notification, but I still get the emergency calls message on the lock screen.

Also, I AM connected to the T-Mobile network, but it just won't recognize my phone.

I was wondering if anyone else had any insight...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny12times:
Hello community!

I own 2 Vibrants, both rooted with no issues. I'm no stranger to flashing through Odin, I've flashed many of the Vibrants in my workplace back to the stock 2.1 (seems to fix most of the issues short of GPS problems, even though it's supposed to be the same), so download mode is nothing new to me.

Recently a few of the people who've come to me with Vibrants have shown how they can't get in to recovery or download mode without using ADB, the hardware keys just don't seem to work for it. I've tried myself and was able to confirm this. We were still able to root them with no issues using one click root. I prefer to manually flash the update.zip myself, but whatever does the job. I've just received a replacement for one of the Vibrants (menu button went out), and noticed I can not get in to recovery/download mode. Naturally I rooted, installed terminal, then rebooted in to download mode, started a flash with Odin.

It hung on cache.rfs. I waited... and waited.. and it mocked me in it's frozen status. So now I'm at the phone+!+computer screen, which I've been at several times on my main Vibrant, but the key's still do not work for download mode. To clarify, I've tried each of the following methods to enter in to download mode, several times. It won't work. I'm in the process of trying different button combination's to see if there is another way to get in. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

Edit: Included working steps so people don't have to search the thread

Provided by rhcp0112345:

Try this.

1. Take out battery, put it back in. (to turn the phone fully off)

2. Don't turn it the phone on!

3. Plug the phone into your PC, do not hit the power button!

4. See if the phone shows anything on the screen (powers on its own when plugged in)

IF the phone screen does 'turn on' after being plugged in without you hitting the power button, so far so good.

5. Now while it's on like this, hold the volume up AND volume down buttons.

6. Hold the power button as well as the volume buttons until the screen goes black.

7. As soon as the screen goes black, let go of the power button! But DON'T let go of the volume buttons!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhcp011235:
Hello,

If the above does not work for you.

Can you supply a full dump of the phone? Perhaps I/others can take a look at it.

Thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny12times:
I have tried that. I have tried almost every combination I can think of. I have tried holding both volume rockers then inserting the battery while plugged in to USB, holding the power through 1 and 2 cycles, I have even tried 3 and 4 cycles as well. I have tried just vol down, just vol up, both with the same results. I have purposefully bricked my main Vibrant to test this out and make sure I wasn't losing my mind. I was able to get in to download mode several ways, none of which work on this new device.

@rhcp0112345 - How do I grab a full dump of the phone? I'll be honest, I've never spent very long in phone+!+computer before tonight. I've never been stuck here long enough to see how to connect via computer. At this moment, plugging the phone into the pc gives me no prompts that something has been plugged in, the phone isn't seen by adb (big shock) or Odin. I'm at a loss myself.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhcp011235:
Well,

First thing.

Can you please dump like so:

adb shell
su
busybox ls -al /dev/block/

Post that here.

Also,

adb shell
su
dd if="/dev/block/bml0!c" of=/sdcard/bml0.backup

Please 7zip the bml0.backup file and upload it someplace and PM me the info. Dont post it public.

Thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny12times:
I'll be happy to do that with the next device I have this issue with, but I can't boot the phone, therefore I can't connect via ADB (been trying, if I could do adb, I could just simply 'adb reboot download' to get in to download mode). I'm thinking at this point I will have to exchange the phone, as I can't get past the phone+!+computer screen no matter what I try.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] achild:
I was running into this problem too. I re-extracted the files and tried again and it worked. I also tried it without loading the .pit into odin, not sure which of two or both did it. Not sure if its the right way, but that did it after hangin on the cache numerous times.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhcp011235:
Follow the unbrick method.

You pull the battery and some other stuff.

To get it past that.

I think its volume up? + power?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny12times:
Yeah, removing the .pit file seems to fix the lock up issue in Odin, but unfortunately, I'm not even getting to the download screen, so I can't get Odin to find the phone. I'm sure once I get to download mode I can get it running, but I'm unable to get download mode on this one device.
