[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Phromik:
Looks nice. Downloading now.

EDIT: Just tried it out for a while. Verdict: It's great!

Once you turn off the Chinese language, the text prediction is great, and the buttons are quick and responsive. I like the option to have different layouts for portrait vs. landscape (even though I just use QWERTY for both). The edit button is top center, and very handy, since I came from a G1 and the Vibrant has no trackball/d-pad to edit words. One note though, the delete button in Edit deletes the next character, not the previous. Not a huge deal, since the backspace on the keyboard still deletes the previous character and you could just select what you need to delete in the Edit screen, just a weird change. If you don't know what I mean, try it out yourself, it's worth a try at least :)

I am new to the Android side of XDA just picked up my Vibrant 2 days ago and loving it.............

My favorite too......one of the first things I downloaded to my Vibrant and seems to work pretty well just missing the ability to save passwords or url or email adresses (one click entry in the username or password box for websites is really slick and I miss that the most). It is still beta so we will see if they implement it later on.

control vibrator, record a
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] amitsivak:
I did a search for for the above but I only see saving contacts to sim, but I need to replace my sim card which is giving me issues and it needs to be replaced..

Also How do I stop the phone from showing the same/duplicate contacts from the phone memory and sim in the contacts list? I want to backup those contacts on the phone and from the sim but don't want duplicates.

Any help appreciated
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
There are several tools for removing the duplicate contacts. Kaiser tweak and some cab file.. Use pimbackup to backup your contacts to computer or sd card. Maybe even have your service provider copy them to the new sim.

normally on a WM 6.5.x rom... i have tried energy blackstonehenge and cloudyfa rom.... the problem comes up when my cell is locked and on standby.... at a random instant. when the cell is on standby and i press the power button screen doesnt wake up but after a couple of seconds the cell vibrates indicating tht cell is booting up and tht it was turned off...(when i never turned it off in the first place)

when the booting is complete the first screen to come up is the lockscreen....(the position at which i left it at standby)

[Desire Themes and Apps] xifer:
I'm using Modaco latest r8 rom with froyo 2.2. I noticed 2 things:

1. wave secure will not download my account data automatically when I factory reset. I need to register again which make it vulnerable. >> Anyone can disable wave secure

2. I don't even need to factory reset and I can reset wave secure by clearing the data in settings!!!!

I have tried in original HTC ROM 2.09(rooted) and flash in /system/app. same situation.

And I've tried that if wavesecure hasn't been register, you can't lock it from wavesecure.com or sms

I don't know if this is due to the nature of froyo or it's been like this since 2.1

wave secure is practically useless right now on my phone!!

Anyone can confirm this?

[Desire Themes and Apps] dieselboy:

[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
This whole thing makes me wonder...can an Android phone REALLY be protected by these kind of softwares? Even assuming there are no security issues with the app..I mean,a lot of Android phones are rooted by their owners and all are rootable (?) without booting into the OS, so even if said apps are installed as system apps (just like wavesecure can be) what's preventing a "smart/geek" thief from pulling the battery, changing the simcard,(rooting a non-rooted phone), booting into recovery, mounting system and wreaking havoc through adb, including removing the security app?? Am i going on a wild goose chase or is all this sound??
[Desire Themes and Apps] markuz85:
Yeah, but I don't think the average mugger/thief is that smart ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] Moe5508:
So can I cancel my current subscription then and get a refund?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Lennyuk:
If you install wavesecure to /system/app and make sure its only there and not in /data/app as well then you should not have this problem.

Also wavesecure have gone through a rough month, got brought by Mcafee who in turn just got brought by Intel. They need to adjust to the new owners. They are (were) only a small company and lets face it their app is the best around by a long long way.

If you have any problems or suggestions on how to improve they usually listen (it was one of TeamVillain and a xda mod who suggested they make a update.zip for /system/app and a number of other improvements and they did it straight away).

Don't just say "oh no its not working" no app can protect your phone from the right people, if someone who knows all about rooting etc gets your phone then your screwed anwyay. But the average joe thug who steals your phone will get it, put in a new sim the alarm will go crazy then they panic, drop the phone and run. You can then use the tracker to find it, or give details to police.

Just put the apk in your rom next time before you flash in system/app and flash the rom. Restore data from a backup (but not the app) and you still get your market link too.
[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
While i agree with you that a witch hunt isn't the proper response and that it is unlikely that the average thief will know his way around adb, i have personally tried to remove wavesecure from /system/app...it works...i did it without breaking a sweat. I intentionally triggered the lock by attempting to uninstall the uninstall-protection, pulled off the battery, booted in recovery and got rid of wavese cure with a single command. Reboot and presto! A free phone :p:p. So it is true that there is no full-proof way to be safeguarded, at least using this software, and in my humble opinion the guys over at wavesecure should clearly state so on their website. And they don't always listen..there is a long story of noisy silences concerning op's issue...omissions, censorship etc etc. I got a free lifetime subscription so i'm not particularly yelling at anyone, just making hypothetis, but wouldn't you be quite pissed off if someone stole your phone and rendered it's security software (for which you payed) impotent just because he knew "SU"?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Lennyuk:
The thing is though, if they knew SU and other commands chances are they will get around any protection whatever it would be.

But Wavesecure offers you a way to track the phone, you can still contact your carrier and get them to IMEI blacklist it, then track the handset down via wavesecure.

The application has all the settings you expect in a music player, including looping one song, the full playlist or not looping at all.

[EVO 4G General] VSack:
I posted in an earlier thread that I was getting worried that there is so much noise in the Evo development section that high quality ROMs by dedicated programmers were getting lost in the fracas of those that feel slapping a new wallpaper on a ROM qualified as its own distribution.

I was thinking that the best solution would be to see if the community would be interested in a way to uprank and downrank distributions in a one stop gateway that would help everyone clearly see which ROMs are the brightest and the best.

To that effect, I've created a Google Moderator series that lists ROMs. You can put a checkbox next to the ones you support, and an X if there is one (or some) in particular that you had some bad mojo with. If one you love isn't there, you're more than free to add it yourself to get the voting going!

The best part is, you can change your votes at any time!

This may work, this may suck. Time will tell if this can become at all useful :)
[EVO 4G General] VSack:

[EVO 4G General] jd9900:
Sure I'll support this...

NOTE: please don't use this list as a bible...once we start rooting phones, they can tend to have a mind of their own. Some roms run great on some phones but are unstable on others. Same goes for kernels and themes. Remember, YMMV.
[EVO 4G General] xxdjvalexx:
Great Idea.
[EVO 4G General] VSack:
Agreed. Hopefully the whole "wisdom of the crowds" thing can at least push people in the right direction.

You all owe it to yourself and your phone to read the threads associated with these ROMs before flashing though!

[EVO 4G General] nhutpham:
I think that it's a great idea to add some sorting/ratings/details about all the roms out there, to anyone that hasn't been on these forums a while I'd assume it's quite overwhelming.

I'm not sure what the best idea is, as voting in a thumbs up/down fashion might not be the greatest way to show evaluation, I'm sure a lot of people with negatives are gonna be the ones with bugs or couldn't get it to work right.

In the end, I think rom reviews would be ideal, if we could get someone to do them. I remember shopping for a Nintendo DS cart, if anyone is familiar with them, and I found a website that had frequently updated reviews of the different available cartridges from the various teams that made them, and even though everyone knew the R4 brand cartridge I was able to get a good feel for the developers and features I was choosing from and I chose another brand that I was quite happy with.

I think voting makes it a popularity vs people with bugs/problems contest, more detailed voting (stars/categories) would end up being too tedious for most, and the spreadsheets, tho useful, don't really tell you everything you need to know.

Reviewers can also make the community more aware of who is making our kernels, the differences between them, available themes, battery life comparisons, etc.

We just need to find some people that swap roms enough and would be willing to do the write ups...
[EVO 4G General] omegasun18:
i think it will become a popularity contest which is part of the point, but the problem i see is that there are many die hard fans of this rom or that rom and i have no doubt they will negatively rate other roms just to try to move there fav rom up the list whether or not they used the rom, was something wrong with it, or not.

I think any type of ranking system is more hurtful then helpful. If you are a dev for a rom that isnt as popular or is new you may show at the bottom of the list even though your rom is bug free stable and fast. If people use this list as a true reference they will see your rom at the bottom or not on it at all and assume your rom isnt very good this could be very discouraging to the devs that even though they work hard and have a very solid rom they may not get many users and may be considered a "bad" rom since they haven't been around as long or arent one of the big 4-5 that people frequently use.

just my take on it. i like the review idea of the above user that along with nief's rom comparison that actually compares performance and battery life i think is the most helpful personally giving every rom its fair chance. it also takes popularity out of it to some degree and gives newer roms a fair chance vs coming in down 1000 votes.
[EVO 4G General] VSack:
I agree but people certainly do gravitate toward quality.

I took a lot of time to think about what the best way of doing this would be, and Moderator seems to be the best idea:

1. Reviews get outdated with each iteration. What you cite as problems now, can be fixed tomorrow.

2. The benchmarking idea is also bad since each phone is different. My phone pegged in the high 40s on old Linpack on most ROMs where others were seeing mid thirties. Again, outdated is an issue.

3. A poll on the site doesn't allow for other ROMs to be added easily

4. You can always change your mind.

Unfortunately, since the question is "what is everyone's favorite ROMs" is technically a popularity question, a popularity contest is what it is. :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] losdelrock:
Hello, we appear to have a problem:

1) HTC desire, unrooted, 2.2 Froyo

2) Exchange ActiveSync 2003

All was working fine until the Exchange server crashed. Upon repairing the Exchange server, HTC would no longer sync on a particular user account, it goes through the motions (certificate etc.) then shows you what you want to sync, then upon pressing "Finish" it comes up with "Failed to create account, please try later"

Deleted account, recreated. Factory data reset. Formatted SD card. Downgraded to previous official HTC rom (downgraded hboot of course). Upgraded to Froyo again.

None of those worked.

Somewhere on this phone is a legacy setting relating to this particular user which is not getting deleted. Question is:

Where?

The phone will activesync with other domains, other users in the same domain of the user that failed. Our 2 other Desires can sync with the user that does not work on the Desire in question.

In other words, this particular desire has kept some data relating to the user and activesync on it.

Any ideas? Or else, any other suggestions to completely format/wipe/erase all data on the phone?

OK, the corrupt data seems to be "remembered" by the HTC Mail app somewhere.

I installed the standard Android email app and it synced, no problems.

However, the standard Android app does not allow me only to sync the Calendar and Contacts, no emails, which is what this user needs.

Any ideas on how to delete any persistent data that the HTC Mail app keeps? Or even to uninstall and reinstall the HTC Mail app?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] losdelrock:
Possible Update

My HTC desire started failing to (Active)sync the calendar - mail/contacts fine. Deleted account, recreated, cleared mail app data, no luck, error syncing calendar.

Got pissed off, deleted account and went through all the applications, noting any that had any of the words Calendar, Mail, Sync or Active in them and force closed them then cleared the data/cache off them.

Rebooted phone.

Calendar syncing again.

I have yet to try this on the phone that started this thread - we are going to retore the Exchange server information store back to the day before it crashed as there are some peculiar errors happening. This may fix the issue, will keep you posted.
