[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] lloydcabraham:
Hey Guys, Not sure what I did but when I touch the phone icon on the Aloysius theme's rosie, it only gives me a small blank dialog box. The phone pad doesn't come up. All other icons work. I can't seem to fix it either. I've tried changing themes with no luck and my Nandroid has the same problem. Switching to another rom seemed to fix the problem but I really want to go back to my backup of Fresh's with this Aloysius fix. Any help would be appreciated.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Albymn:
what happen to the rosie for Sapphire theme?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bigrushdog:
Update regarding themed apk's

It looks like some of the apk's included with the themes aren't playing nice with the latest 3.29 OTA. I've read about problems with music.apk and dialer.apk. Part of the problem is that these apk's are from previously distributed OTA's. The solution will be for me to learn how to theme apk's, so that they are up to date and themed. When these themes were tested on the 3.29 base, I was primarily focused on framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk. As for the problem with some of the Rosie launchers, it has to do with using a framework-res that works with the battery mod, but does not maintain the Rosie mods.

If you are having a problem with a specific apk, use adb shell rm /system/app/whatever.apk to get rid of the problem apk. Then adb push the same apk pulled from the rom you are using. I'm doing the best I can. This is a learning experience for me. And besides, isn't that what XDA is all about?

By the way, the way things are going, I will likely end support for Koni's work (what little if done) and begin my own theme work. I'll keep y'all posted.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Albymn:
Okay man can't wait to see the fix and see what new you can bring to these themes. Thanks for the work too!

??

The old ones dog made had the vanilla lock for the deoxed theme (white) where can i find the 2.2 one now?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] robpet2:
hopefully someone will take some screenshots of the themes..

might have to take some donations to test all of them and take screenshots

[G1 General] gebonline:
Hi,

I retired my G1 in favor of a Nexus One, for the all the reasons you can imagine if you used both devices, and I've moved my contract from the G1 to the N1 I bought without service.

However, my G1 is still fully functional and I do not want to sell it, but would like to give it a new life.

Froyo on the G1 is impressive, but let's face it, the G1 can't deal with it too well. There are too many features, too much stuff for the G1 limited memory, and barely starting an app frequently results in the home app to be quit, making simple operations slower than they would otherwise. Still, in the background, many services run that are now irrelevant: messaging, BT and others.

I would like to use my G1 to stream music at home, from a Wifi connection, using Pandora, last.fm or some other streaming service or podcast app. Just running Pandora brings the device to its knees, probably because it uses too much memory.

I imagine that many G1 owners like me have moved their SIM to some other device, or moved to a different carrier on a different (Android) phone and have no SIM for their G1 anymore. How about a ROM that would not have any of the phone features enabled to save as much memory as possible? Not having to run the GSM modem might also be able to save us some valuable RAM? As is, I haven't found any way to disable permanently SMS & other services that keep coming back, at the very least when I reboot the phone. It would be great to be able to just disable many components I never use, like G-talk, SMS or the phone part of this device that still has so much to offer, and could do so so much better with the memory savings!

If such a ROM exists already, or if there is an app or a hack I could use on top of CyanogenMod 6, I would love to know about it. I've looked for it, I swear, but could not find anything like that.

thanks!

[G1 General] BuddhaTeh1337:
Well you can disable edge and 3g via the powerbar widget. I believe there is an app for root users in market that let's you uninstall stock phone apps like mms, gtalk, and phone.
[G1 General] androidcues:
the phone becomes even more useful and powerful and effective once it is taken off the "daily driver" list and is no longer being abused as a telephone. You have a microsupercomputer that can do it all....... gps, render, flashdrive. bla bla bla. Think out of the box folks!

I would love to get rid of phone.apk and all that telephony.
[G1 General] gebonline:
Well, since there is no SIM in the "phone", there is no need to disable edge and 3g, but uninstalling the stock apps certainly works great! I've done pretty much what you suggested, and the G1 flies now, as apps can all fit in RAM, and I can even keep the virtual keyboard. I think I've taken down the link to the user's profile at the same time, but that's ok (for now). I just wish I would know a little better what I'm uninstalling when using System App Remover (the naming is not particularly obvious), but it's working for me quite well. Pandora & Last.fm fly and my G1 is giving me all it's got!

thanks!

[G1 General] peliROJO:
I don't see anything easy, or pre-built. is it a requirement to be on 2.2 froyo?

this is a $1 app, System App Remover, find it in the Market. and it may work for you, i've never used it.

I'm trying to find an app that works with the Samsung Epic that I can use as a mouse/keyboard for my PC.

I have already downloaded GRemote Pro and Remote Droid but I can't get either to sync with my computer.

I can not get Microsoft Activesync to recongize my phone which I think might be the reason I can not get my phone connected to my computer so the programs acknowledge each other.

ppc tablet

try ppc tablet:

http://www.aacompserv.com/AACompWeb/Modules/PPCTablet/WhatIsIt.aspx

it supports connectivity over wireless and bluetooth PAN, in addition to active sync. It's not freeware, but you can get a trial version to test it.

Edit: On second thought... the epic is android, right?. So my appoligies if that is the case. The above will not work for you.

as the title implies i was wondering if there was a was a way to change the kb on an odex rom. im using zenexp 9.7 and really like the speed a lot there is almost no lag and the battery life is great but the only thing i need (not really need :p) is a black kb. ive seen some that show blue letters when u type on it that would be pretty neat. but cant find any info on how to update it. also it said that Zenexp was on a different framework then other roms.... so basically i have no clue but this is just one of those things that would make me happy TIA

I hope you're asking "Which" application is usable on the Android in our HD2.

Basically everything works except some bugs here and there which has been vastly reduced if you had followed suit since the beginning..

You can do your basic phone calls, in and out. SMS msgs in and out, emails.

Play tons of beautiful games.. The pictures taken with the camera seems of better quality..They do better white balancing than on WinMo.

Music player a little sucky in terms of interface but it works.

What you may be irritated:

1. Screen goes off, takes a few presses to get it back on..

2. Screen freezes (quite rare these days) on the build I am using..

3. Wifi works fine but HSPDA sometimes works sometimes don't, what I do is just turn on flight mode and turn it off, and HSPDA works again..

4. Battery life, well, too many conflicting reports. On the build I use, I get an assured 6hrs based on (games, sms, phone calls). Conservative use, I get around 8 hrs. Screen brightness set at 50%.

5. Auto Screen brightness control isn't working.

I can't use the facebook app in my X10 mini pro. It keep popping errors message after i input my user account and password. Was it a problem/limitation of Android 1.6. I've already updated the latest version in Market and successfully log in facebook in web browser.

Besides, people who knows which good performance music player for X10 mini pro is, please advise me. Tunewiki plays music very slow.Thanks!

When restoring from backup it restores the cal and it creates dups when the server re-syncs.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenixjn:
android backup is an image of the partition itself as far as I know, so it contains everthing just like an ISO. If you were to modify it you'd need to update the MD5 sum file or else the restore will fail.

Seems to be even more complicated than it appears
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
I don't believe there is but if you're using an exchange account maybe its the settings cause my exchange never duplicates anything when I do a NAND restore or any restore for that matter.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silencer_007:
Hey guys, I'm a long time lurker, first time thread-starter, and I hope there is a simple solution to this.

This is more of a proof-of-concept question, and since the PS3 is capable of connecting to a tethering application I figured an XB could as well.

Recently, I updated my Captivate's ROM to the SREv1.3.1c (it was the ROM before he renamed it to Cognition). One of the added benefits was the addition of the Mobile Access POint, which is way better than PDANet in my opinion, but I digress.

Anyway, I've managed to turn the AP on and get it to connect to a PS3 with no issues and very little lag, which was awesome. However, the XBox is being a pain in the ***. i can go to my network connections on the XB, and my wireless attachment "sees" the connection just fine. It also connects and pulls both a IP and DNS server address. I even get 5 bars of great signal.

But when I run a XBL test, when it tries to connect to the internet it craps the bed and does nothing. Now, I've seen people get XBL to connect over similar tethering apps, even PDANet with its shaky connection issues, but I can't seem to figure this one out. As far as I can tell, maybe 3G has too high of a latency to be compatable, but I figured I'd ask the experts of XDA. :-) Can anyone help?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silencer_007:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sold1erjjt:
Hey just wondering what is your configuration. like are you connecting with wi-fi from the phone, do you have a laptop to use? that is one of the easiest ways. or are you just usb direct into the console?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silencer_007:
Well presently I'm using MobileAP which broadcasts a wifi signal that my laptop can pick up (it's how I'm typing this at the moment as well). It can be seen, like I said, but the XB won't get past the internet part of the diagnostic test.

I also had PDAnet installed a while ago so I know how to usb tether but couldnt get that to work on XBL either.

im on the froyo vanilla rom, the bf stable kernel. if its either of those, then its something new.. i noticed it today or maybe last night, not really sure.

anyone got a suggestion for what to look for to undo or redo?

the button its self still works, i can manually launch the phone and use the green button to initiate the call, so i know its not just flat broken.

i have reset the adw launcher to see if i did anything to it..

i looked over the cyano settings also, but i dont see anything related to the green button.

Join some good school....
[XPERIA X10 General] mayamo:
just to note.. i'm not a troll :D i love my x10..

i just had a chance to play around with my friend's iphone4 today

i didn't like the small screen, and it wasn't like.. that much more crystal clear than my x10.. and i still love my x10's design.. i think ip4 is so ugly..

BUT!!

my x10 was kinda laggy when i first bought it and now it's gotten much better after the firmware upgrade to 026.. but even then it gets laggy with lots of programs running, so i sometimes have to use the task manager to close the apps and then it doesn't lag..

on the other hand.. this ip4 was so smooth! like.. with my x10, when i move the screen or something there's like.. a little bit (maybe like a milisecond but still noticeable) delay before it registers my touch and moves.. but with ip4, there was no delay in registering my touch.. and also when i open a game or something, it would just pop up instantly...whereas my x10.. i open timescape, other apps, etc.etc. and there's like a second delay with black screen....

so what's the difference??? there's still more things i like about x10 than i won't switch over to another phone for another year or so, but it'd be great if my x10 could be less laggy......

is it because of the difference in os?? like... android has 'real mutitasking'.. is that why? or will the 2.1 firmware fix the problems?? (when i open my app.. or time/mediascape.. it stops for like a second at black screen and then the app loads... ) i have never used any other android phone.. so i can't really tell if it's an android problem or x10 problem...
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
The OS is certainly a part of it...the iPhone just has icons and folders; there's no widgets, or true multi-tasking, or anything like that. Lag should be a lot less with 2.1, even though now, I only see it for like a second after coming out of the lock screen, and that's it.

Also, I believe the processor on the iPhone is slightly faster (in actual processing power, not clock speed), which would make a difference.
[XPERIA X10 General] Findee:
I think it is mostly the os. The nexus one doesn't lag and out has very similar specs.
[XPERIA X10 General] franzfume:
Ios don't multitasking? Are you kidding? It multitask very very well....
[XPERIA X10 General] xeviro:
its true. mostly because of the OS design. iOS 4.0 does not allow true multi-tasking in programmer sense. If you do programming with iOS 4.0 you will be amazed on how complicated how to make your app do some work on background. Most of the apps you closed and running in background is actually really in paused stated.

second is the email and all the rest of the notification, they all is done on the server, then the server send you a push notification on the phone, then only that time, the phone will download the notification like email or facebook.

Android doesn't have a centralized server because they basically just selling the OS, not service. So the phone must do all the work to pull all notification from the server.

then like the post above, iOS does not have widget means no background process that supporting the widget.

so basically Android is slower because they do a lot of thing in the same time with single core processor, while iPhone do one thing at one time. I tried a China Android Table with dual core 1+1 Ghz processor, running 1.6 OS. That one is really really fast.
[XPERIA X10 General] ales85:
xeviro, you're not entirely correct with e-mail. Gmail app supports push so the phone doesn't have to do everything. Once it receives push notifications, it receives e-mail. but E-mail app doesn't have push capability, there you have to manually or periodically check.
[XPERIA X10 General] Contrarian:
I have mine set up as such -

ADW as the home launcher

Scrolling - horizontal instead of vertical (samsung like)

No wallpaper - black screen

"Advanced task killer" running - security level low; auto kill level safe/aggressive

No widgets running except time

Although it's boring, I have virtually no lag.

At the end of the day it is an android thing cause basically its java runing on top of a linux kernal.
[XPERIA X10 General] lt iibad:
basically the android os is doing a hell of a lot more at the same time than ios4. and on top of that doing it using java running atop linux, whereas if im not mistaken, IOsSapps are 'native', kinda like PDK apps on the Pre and what will be called android NDK apps in the future.

if uve run a java app on ur pc ull know what we mean.
[XPERIA X10 General] xeviro:
Some email client on droid suport IMAP IDLE, the build-in Gmail app have it. But the email client for Timescape is not (see that you need to set duration), and Timescape doesn't talk with Gmail apps contents :confused:

because i happen to be a project manager for my company, making something for Android as well for iOS so i can tell you that apps in Android running in wilds, all program may run in background, some even can stay resident for god now how long and eat our battery :( the Android 2.1 and above is more strict about background apps. While iOS is like running in zoo full with bureaucrats, everything must be done in order so its much more stable but harder for us the programmers.

you are right about iOS application is native, and Android is bytecode that's need to be intepret to run. The problem with Android 1.5, 1.6 and 2.1, they don't have Just In Time compiler that converts this bytecode into native code on the run. Android 2.2 have it, that is why Nexus One is very-very fast.

lol, now we are talking about this, i really wish that our 2.1 delayed, because SE devs is actually rewriting all Timescape and Mediascape using NDK. then X10 basic apps (Timscape and Mediascape) would be very fast without waiting for 2.2 :)
