I'm not sure if anyone is interested but the other day i realized that the samsung vibrant is the first phone without 10.1 flash that plays videos from videos dot google dot com. They blocked that website from my job so we wouldn't eat up their data but it actually plays the video on the Vibrant! It's not the clearest picture but that's so cool it works with an old version of flash within the stock browser. and I didn't see this topic in the forums so I created this for a tip. lol so all of the evil people keep your smart comments to yourself.

Hi everyone

I got my HD2 an year ago. Its an awesome device and was working fine untill the time I thought of updating the original ROM of the phone. And as there are no official ROM updates in India, so I did this using HardSPL. I update my phone's ROM to "Elegencia GTX - V 2.0 Final WWE". The ROM update was successful. But there were a lot of issues with call reception and sms functionality. The phone use to freeze on receiving any call. On searching a little I found that the issue was the original Radio of my phone which was 2.05.51.05_2 . And so I installed a newer Radio which I downloaded from xda itself. Since then I am facing a lot of problems in the sms functionality of my phone. Now I have tried almost all the updated versions of Radios available in

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787

but all in vain. Some radios does not allow me to send or receive sms to some of my friends and some of them freezes the phone on receiving a phone call. Now I am using Radio version 2.11.50.20, there is no problem in this Radio except for some of my friends says that they receive my single message three times and that too only the first part of the sms. And some times I receive a notification "Unable to send message".

I am not technically an expert, but would like to know the issue with my phone. I really dont want to rollback on the original ROM as I want to know the solution rather than always being in a doubt.

Please help me out in this situation. And also let me know in case you need any other info for your convenience to get a better understanding.

I really hope you will help me out. :)

Thanks

hi.

I started using windows live messenger app on my hd2, then it synced all of the emails of my friends to the hd2 contacts list, I didnt want that so i deleted them from my contacts list without knowing that IT WILL DELETE ALL OF MY MSN FRIENDS from messenger, so now i have no friends on when i enter messenger(on hd2 and PC).

PLEASE PLEASE tell me that there is some backup file that will allow me to restore my friends.

Hi guys,

I am running mattc 1.5b and I am having problem sending sms longer than 160 characters.

I am using handcent sms. If the message size is more than 160 characters, straight after i hit "send" i get a message failed to send notifications. I have confirmed that the message did not reach the intended recipient.

If i change the 'split 160' setting under 'send message settings' to anything other than don't split, the message will send and it will arrive as multiple sms's with 160 characters in each.

I have also tried to use the built in 'message' software to send a long sms, it first prompted me saying it failed to send but after a few auto-retries it will send eventually.

Anyone knows how to get handcent sms to work properly?

If your rooted, use an app like 'ShootMe' that you can get from the market for free, and then you can take screenshots on the move.

otherwise install the android SDK and use DDMS which can be sound under 'tools'

I had the chuky rom allready installed with the HSPL

I got the insane idea of upgrade with the latest version of chuky Roms

So I did the task29 doolup, it finisched without problem and then remain locked-up with logo chuky roms and I' cant enter the bbotloader and don't connect it from the PC (when I plug nothing happend on the pc)

The only thing that came to my mind is that the battery is low and the bootloader does not start. Possible?

Download from Android Market: Smart Taskbar (Free download)

or

With QR barcode

Since the initial release on Aug 2010 as the first one click instant access app and its super unique always available design , Smart Taskbar has became the origin of several similar one click instant access app in Android Market today. Today, after more than 6 month of beta testing, I am proud to announce that Smart Taskbar is finally going to V1.0.0 stage. V1.0.0 is more stable, faster, more feature packed and also more visually appealing than its previous - beta testing product.

Smart Taskbar is a - super launcher, task switcher, an app organizer, shortcut manager, and widget viewer that you can quickly call up on any window by swipe the edge of screen or by clicking a transparent trigger icon on screen. In most cases, you can complete app launching in 2 finger clicks (1st swipe, and 2nd click on app icon to launch). Possibly the fastest way to quickly launch or switch between applications.

If you want to use your phone one handed with complete touch screen experience, you find Android takes too many steps to complete one simple job, or you want to get a faster way to get things organized, get Smart Taskbar to make your like easier.

Smart Taskbar comes with following features

(1) 5 speedy launch spots for 2 steps quick launch

(2) App organizer function built in

(3) Task switch

(4) super speedy launcher

(5) Software home button (To prevent H/W home button from tear and wear)

(6) True multitask experience!

(7) Able to build your own custom action to launch

Reason why to use Smart Taskbar:

(1) Free up your home screen for more widgets instead of app shortcuts

(2) A better way to organize app in to groups

(3) Need a super fast way to launch your app

(4) Missing the multi tasking in Palm Pre

(5) Don't want to press hardware button too frequently

great app

thanks for posting this good app, it is so greate and useful that i use it every time when i use my phone. :p

i like the quick luanch function most, hereever i am, it is easy and quick to switch to another app.

also i can organized all my apps by different lables. then i can catch it easily by related lable.

of cource it goes smooth on my phone and till now, i have not found any defect to remove it.

my pleasure to share it with everyone.
[Android Apps and Games] hyatari:
Nice app. Uses a good amount of cpu tho and the visuals could use a bit of polish but definitely effective. Looking forward to see it develop.
[Android Apps and Games] jerryfan2000:
Hi,

CPU usage if Smart taskbar should be no different than regualr Android app. You are seeing high CPU occupation because you do a lot of scroll in app list. Try yourself and scroll grid list in other app such as gallery and you will see similar CPU usage.
[Android Apps and Games] c_man:
Since getting my Legend over 4 months ago I've been looking for something like this.

This seems to fit the bill, I will be sure to check it out! Just hope the CPU related comments are as per the OP's response ^.

EDIT: Oops, not what I thought it was. I thought this would 'pin' certain apps to the notification area for quick access.
[Android Apps and Games] hyatari:
Yes, you are correct the scrolling taxes cpu on any app so that is fair enough. I would like to see widgets integrated somehow similar to the way power strip does and I would use this exclusively for sure.
[Android Apps and Games] flashman2002:
I am really happy with the app. Works great and has let me clan up my home screen. Much better then I thought it would be.
[Android Apps and Games] jerryfan2000:
It is truly a personal preference question. But notification doesn't show up in full screen app. In this case, u can't access to quick launcher. In addition, u need to (1) expand notification bar, (2) click on notification item, (3) click on the item u wish to launch. It is 3 steps. Anyway, just like i said, it is pure personal preference question. Hope you can find it useful eventually. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Downy:
Wow, works great and is just great!! This is definitly a Must-have app!
[Android Apps and Games] MerijnB:

[Android Apps and Games] FuryriderX:
Looks like it would work great - but DOES NOT scale, if you've changed your LCD density. The click button to slide it out shows in the middle of the screen!

If the scaling issue gets resolved, it would be fantastic. In the meantime, it's very difficult to use it if you've changed the LCD density.

EDIT: Found it using an american ID on market-enabler, looks like its still in some of the english ones.
[Android Apps and Games] civicvx94:
That's what I was hoping for too...
[Android Apps and Games] alovell83:
I like this overall, but I do think it has a few weaknesses.

First, app scrolling is very slow, I'm used to fast scrolling in my device whether it's LauncherPro or Touchwiz. I'd be willing to deal with cached icons or anything else for a short term fix. (Korean Galaxy S, SHW-m110s)

Second, while in the app I can't use my home button, which means, if I want to use home button to get home I can't. It also means I lose access to QuickDesk while in your app.

Overall, I'd recommend this, especially to those who don't use something like QD. Still, this has a more complete experience than QD so that's a definite plus over it, but QD has a real speed advantage as well as it's where I put power control widget for it's easy access within apps. I could see using this heavily with faster speed, even still due it's customizations that I haven't yet utlized it's probably better than I've already stated. Thanks for the good work, Dev, looking forward to more!

Strange, but I stuck on how to use screen... :(

Can get to the settings screen.

Device: HTC Polaris, resolution 320x240
[Android Apps and Games] meanm50:
Same here. I can hit the 'open' button, but if I press the settings icon...it goes to the 'how to use' screen with the blue hand on it. The only thing I can do from there is open the dock...which works...but I would really like to access the settings menu. I am keeping the .apk, but have uninstalled as of now for failure to access settings.
[Android Apps and Games] alovell83:
I initially had the same problem. I think you have to click "dismiss", then after that, access settings from within the main screen of the app (it might've been from hitting the menu button, but I don't think that was my method, though they probably do the same). There are only 2 settings in the "settings" menu though. Other settings/customizations will be found within the app itself, such as pinning most common favorite apps to your easy to launch area.

I'll edit if the developer corrects me on anything, I only played around with it for about 15 minutes.
[Android Apps and Games] alovell83:
Like I said, I basically like the app, however, I encountered a big problem with it in the past 12 hours since my original post. My "Android OS" usage shot through the roof when I was asleep. I'm a guy who, at least when at home and definitely when asleep, doesn't use 3G, so I leave it off. Also, I don't use sync, so my Android OS is typically very low 2-4% and I get insane standby time in my Galaxy S, 1-2% drain in a typical night. Last night, I probably drained at least 30% but I think closer to 40%. Something is going on with the app that doesn't let my phone stay in standby mode.

Then this morning, I was very tired, so perhaps I slept through my smart alarm (it's somewhat quiet, though not very, and it'd only be the 2nd time and the first time the speaker was blocked). I was surprised when I was woken up by a backup alarm on my phone, so most functionality definitely remained. But then, 15 minutes later, my last resort alarm didn't go off, and I was monitoring the phone a bit to make sure it would. Right after it was supposed to another (very stable app, not to be named) force closed for maybe the 2nd time in it's life on me (no update in at least a week). Right after that, my power button wouldn't function to turn my screen off, it still brought up options to do things like Airplane mode, power off, etc, but touch to turn screen off doesn't work (and I leave my timer off).

I think updated I'll really like this app, plenty of potential here, but I have to uninstall. Thanks though.

Battery life issues (less phone sleep/standby)

Seemed to cause conflict with another app, but it could've been coincidence

Slow app scrolling
[Android Apps and Games] mikashakira:
screenshots please????
[Android Apps and Games] jerryfan2000:
Hi,

I am developing on Galaxy too. Your phone lock up issue is basically caused by smart Alarm. when it happens, Smart Alarm doesn't make any sound, CPU usage of Smart alarm goes to 60-80%. At same time, my phone gets so hot like 40-50 'c. I am very sure this will happen to you even after uninstalling Smart Taskbar. Not using Smart Alarm is the only way to solve it. I am not sure is it fixed in later firmware release. In addition, my app doesn't use any wake lock. Therefore it doesn't block your phone from going to standby.

For battery life issue, I have used SystemPanel to monitor one week CPU time usage of my app, basically it uses less than 0.1% overall. Therefore, should have very very small battery drain.

For slow scroll, I do use cached app list. Launcher Pro is simply too great. Nothing can compare to its super smooth scrolling so far. But I think my app performs on par with standard launcher :)

By the way, are u using Galaxy S or the old 7500 Galaxy?
[Android Apps and Games] jerryfan2000:
Hello,

I am not sure is it a bug but plz make sure you click the dismiss button. I think a reboot can solve it if pressing dismiss can't fix it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ComfySofa:
This could be a simple yes or no....

I have a desire which ive rooted (used the goldcard method). Took me a few days to get there but i got there. After spending said time rooting the gold card way i then stumbled across the "unrevoked" way - did my mates desire last night doing it that way which in my opinion seems to work better as i could install the clockwork recovery image on there while it was rooting the device.

My desire which i rooted the goldcard way wont go to the recovery menu from the phone itself - i have to run the "step2-windows" command from the pc to get it to invoke the recovery menu so i can then reflash a new image. I guess the clockwork recovery image isnt on there.

So, heres the question....can i just run the unrevoked install over the top of my already rooted 2.2'd desire. Or, can i put the clockwork recovery image in after or none of the above....

Look forward to hearing some answers as the way it is now is a bit of pain in the arse if i want to reflash an image.

Thanks

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Yeh a "tweak" which would make the rest of the hardware actually work would be nice.... We are still far from getting this kernel to a usable state. Let first concentrate on this.

I personally, have done a massive porting of code from the .29 kernel which has obviously resulted in the kernel not booting now - yippee :D Now working on trying to get it to boot which could takes anything between days and never.... Is there any way to debug the kernel boot if adb is not working?!

Anyone else working seriously on this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mr.bang:
i'm trying to work on this but i have few building problems..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Elemag:
You can boot, then reboot into a working kernel and pull /proc/last_kmsg if you can't get to adb. It would be nice if you post the output to pastebin and link it here :) .

As for the massive porting from .29 -- I think that the microp driver needs to be ported first, cause it is probably the bottleneck right now.

I found that the touchscreen driver initializes as /devices/virtual/input/input0 but on the .29 kernel it is input1 and input0 is the headset. I don't know if this can cause it not to work though.

If you have building problems, write to me, preferably in github. I don't have time to work much on this, because I am trying to make my diploma, but will surely take a look if someone has an idea.

Anyway, getting the touchscreen to work will be a breaking point :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I actually started working on the SD card not being recognized (seemed easier than fixing the touchscreen or so I thought). Somehow got pulled in to porting a whole lot of code from the .29 kernel's arch/arm/mach-msm directory....

I'll try the last_kmsg thing sounds very usefull :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Guys I think porting more and more stuff forward from .29 is a bad idea. Instead the stuff we -need- should be adapted for 2.6.34. Otherwise we're going to end up with some messy 2.6.29/34 hybrid. Everything we need is there in the kernel apart from specific drivers, otherwise 2.6.34 wouldn't work with the G1, however it does.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I was obviously talking only about drivers....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] incomer:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Exactly :D adb reboot sometimes also seem to work. Haven't had much time to get more specific details.

Would like to have some more people checking the kernel out. Sometimes it is going mad and is doing "something" for quite some time, eating up a lot of cpu cycles.
