How so? Phone turns quiet when picked up im sure it can be set to turn on when picked up. SMS as someone mentioned, handcent does. Apparently "screebl" does the screen turn on, testing now.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
you can use an app called no lock that will allow you to use the volume buttons to wake the phone, i don't think that you'll be able to wake by using that capacitive buttons - this would essentially mean that your phone would never sleep.

and I'm almost positive that you can set up a profile in tasker to take care of the dimming instead of turning off the screen. In fact, you could probably set up most, if not all of these through various tasker profiles.
[EVO 4G General] regaw_leinad:
Not to mention how much battery it would waste polling the accelerometer to see if it's been moved.
[EVO 4G General] Tilde88:
actually those are all things that seem pretty mainstream from an OS derived from the most robust OS out there [linux]. Yes, those can all be done on android. Unfortunately there is a lack of programmers ... Especially to something that probably wont appeal to the ones we do have...

Also some kernel modifications will be necessary...

:( Im sorry i cant do this for you... If i could I would... Just because our phones can... and a couple of those things should already be with us...

Someone help us!! :D
[EVO 4G General] felacio:
Coming from the iphone. I loved the look of the evo... but I now miss the home button for this exact reason. Lol

The swiping of the captive keys sounds great. I doubt its doable though..

EDIT: ok, screebl is cool. And eliminates the need to press the power to put it to sleep... but it doesn't wake it up when picked up, so it solves half the problem.

[EVO 4G General] TorxT3D:
interesting suggestions so far.

i'd rather keep the default stock sms app rather than delving into something 3rd party.

i'll try the handcent, but doubt i keep it long..

thanks everyone, lets keep brainstorming!!
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
handcent is 100x better than stock sms... doubt you'll go back, haven't actually met anyone that has
[EVO 4G General] regaw_leinad:
I actually never used handscent before, then when I tried it, I was pretty amazed with it. Just delete your Mms.apk
[EVO 4G General] felacio:
Ah... no. Don't ever delete your default Mms.apk. that's asking for troubles

...in 1943, I killed a drifter.
[EVO 4G General] regaw_leinad:
you serious? there's nothing wrong w/ it. I did it just fine :p
[EVO 4G General] felacio:
I deleted mine and lost the ability to receive txt messages. How did you not? I've read a few threads that tell you not to delete mms.apk for that very reason.
[EVO 4G General] regaw_leinad:
That's really weird... I deleted mine after I started using handscent, and it worked fine...
[EVO 4G General] felacio:
Pfft... lucky. That is what I tried to do.. after a day of no txts from anyone I figured there was a problem. Was able to reinstall it from a backup and I was able to get txt again..

How exactly did you uninstall? Titanium?.

Try Screen Off app from the market

The 'Screen Off' app from the market installs an icon that when pressed it will turn the screen off.

Also wakes up the phone by pressing any of the volume jeys on the phone.

I barely use the power button any more.

It's a paid app though ($0.99 I think).

[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] sunny342:
That is a app i downloaded from the market. It basically turns off wifi when it disconects from wifi( saving u battery) and it only turns on wifi periodically or at a set time to automatically reconnect with wifi. Used it today and it worked like a charm. The big plus was it saved me a ****load of battery power. Only complaint is that the settings were kind of confusing but the developers website cleared up the confussion.

U guys should check it out especially if u always forget to turn off ur wifi when ur not using it.

(Also it turns off wifi when the screen is black and the phone is locked)

[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] duckredbeard:
There is a far superior app for such a thing. Tasker. You can do so many things using different triggers. Besides WiFi on when plugged in, you can have it launch desk clock when plugged in and its left side. I've got one setting that will enable GPS, wait 1 one second, launch GPS Tracker, then display the home screen anytime it gets an sms from a particular source with a specific message in the text. Another useful setting is to kill the phone app at the end of the call. Instead of leaving you on the phone screen it takes you to the home screen. That way you are less likely to redial your last number. Another good one is to turn on GPS anytime you launch navigator or maps.

You want the phone to automatically call the local library if you place the phone face down between 4:36am and 10:03pm while plugged in USB on odd numbered Thursdays in months without an R? Tasker can do that.

I'm looking for that retractable flat slider...its real sleek and cool. Also I remember 2 apps that I had from degake i believe that made the slider icon frames transparent and their background transparent
[Captivate General] h_22_accord:
Lately past couple weeks on my captivate ive been trying out different roms for i9000 and i897 and for some reason market will not download anything. it just says starting download and never finishes, and in the notification bar it shows random apps that i never clicked to download say download unsuccessfull. if i do a hard data reset the market will work for a bit, but then does the same thing again. ive tried using 2 different gmail accounts with no luck.

the weird thing is that i thought i might have messed up some settings in my phone from flashing different roms, but the market works perfectly while running i9000 2.2 froyo jp3 and jpc roms. Ive tried various 2.1 roms, i897 jf6,jh2,jh3,jh7 and i9000 jm6, jm7, jm8 and all of them have the same market stalling.

Has anyone found a fix for this or are having this same problem? its really frustrating, but since 2.2 has a working market then i guess i just have to wait for OTA update captivate to froyo if there is no fix for this.
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
Are you on Wifi or 3G? I've had this same problem sometimes. For whatever reason it woulnd't download on the specific access point I was connected to, but when I switched to 3G it worked just fine. Other Wifi access points work just fine for me except for that one.
[Captivate General] darkamikaze:
happens to me at home sometimes.. i noticed when the screen blacks out to nap.. and i turn it on.. the download starts
[Captivate General] JST829:
I get the same thing every once in a while. I fix it by going to Settings -> Applications-> Manage Applications, then Filter to show all applications. Scroll down and hit "Download Manager" and in there, hit "Clear Data." That seems to do the trick for me.
[Captivate General] h_22_accord:
Yea it doesnt matter if its on wifi or 3g the download is stuck. Ive tried clearing cache & data on download manager & market with no success. I flashed i9000 jm8 last night on my i897 captivate and the market worked for about 20 mins even tho half of downloads wouldnt finish so i had to restart them...but now the market still is stuck on starting download. I ran i9000 jp3 2.2 yesterday and market worked perfectly, this is weird wtf google?
[Captivate General] tranms:
this happened to me when I moved for JF6 to JH3. I retraced my steps and it turned out that if I loaded my accounts from Titanium backup, I couldn't download apps from the market and it was stuck at starting to download. My suggestion is once you have your phone flashed the way you want it, restore only your apps, system settings, email, sms & mms..... restore your accounts manually.
[Captivate General] h_22_accord:
I manual entering my email accounts, not using titanium backup to back up anything.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donshin:
I have read lots of posts relating to call-drop, battery problems, and overheating at Android Forum in Korea. (GalaxyS is originally manufactured by a Korean Company, Samsung).

But I do not see many threads regards these matters. Does anyone experience this kind of problem yet?

1. Battery drain - if I charge it fully, it cannot go last one day so I need to re-charge it before coming home. I think this might be a problem of the current firmware and expect to be solved in froyo stage.

2. overheating - this one is the problem i am currenty experiencing.

regularly, my captivate is 25~30 degree' but when i use a small app, then firsly it turns to be a warm stage and sometimes it is over 105~110 f'. I did not have this problem before, but i think this is a problem of lag-fix. (because the official forum in Korea said that lag-fix occurs overheating problem in M110s so i think it might be the same thing to captivate)

3. call-drop

i think this is a problem of the sensor loacting left-top. since it is too sensitive or not too sensitive, sometimes the captivate assumes the call is already ended even i am still on the phone. OR it does not have an auto-lock feature, so I push the end button unexpectly.

Does anyone experience this?

OR

MY PHONE IS DEFECTIVE?????????

I am kinda so tired to find solutions of these problems every day. I used to use Iphone 3G, and 3GS but I did not feel so stressful like the situation.

If it is a problem from the lagfix, then How can I reset this thing to the factory default one??

(just one click JF6 thing? or change something entirely?)

How do we install custom boot animations in android on the HD2?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mr_billionaire:
there is 3 ways to add a custom boot animation.

1) adding it through adb push install.

2) adding it through opening and editing the system.ext2 file in Linux.

&

3) adding it right on the phone with Root Explorer (easiest imo)

Hi there,

I was wondering If anyone out there knows of an apps to locks the phone. Im new on this and what I'm looking for is something to replace the unlock swipe screen that came with the phone. I want something like a numeric keypad as a lock / unlock application.

thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamVib:
Do you want a different option for a pattern lock?

I searched and didn't find anything. My brother has a numeric lock for his Nexus, but that's a CM feature.

I don't think they're out yet. If you find one in the market chances they won't work because of TouchWiz and you would have to be rooted.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lastra2:
Thanks for your quick response to my question.I am kind of new on this and yes what I want is a numeric keypad instead of a pattern.

Download mode is set in setting > applications > development > usb debugging.

1.) - Download the final JF6 (2.1) OneClick here - http://www.thevod.org/misc/captivate/I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0.rar

2.) Do not put your phone into "download" mode (yellow android guy digging)

3.) Make sure your phone is in "debug" mode - Settings > Applications > Developement > USB Debugging

4.) Open Odin and connect your USB - DO NOT MOUNT YOUR SDCARD

5.) Odin should see your phone as Port 12 (most likely). Just hit Master Clear and let the phone reboot. It may take 2-3 minutes.
