Well, if it's just for a wallpaper, it's not that bad... ;)

Besides changing the Launcher.apk is much more of a pita.

You have to extract it with ie: WinZip, then find the pictures (in the folder res/drawable), replace them with pictures of the exact same size and type then put the contents back in the apk, then, push it using adb on your mobile. That's kind of a hassle, huh?

Anyway, there is also the Flikie Wallpapers app, which once installed it pops up as an option when you want to change wallpaper, but I don't think it lets you use local files.

Maybe JustPictures! lets you use your local files, but haven't tried it.

(It always impresses me how much people hate Mediascape!

I am not a fan either, but it does not bother me that much!! :D)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] _calum_:
It doesn't actually bother me that much either :D, but I just like to be able to change my wallpaper in a couple of clicks and I don't want to install an app just for that (I'm a bit picky about what I install both on my PC and my phone).

Also all my wallpaper images are the correct size.

But, you are right, it would be a bit of a hassle to do all of that just to change the default wallpaper images :) But at the moment I'm updating the apk files all the time, so one more change doesn't make much of a difference ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] SXUsr:
It's just a few clicks either way isn't it, and Mediascape comes preinstalled.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] _calum_:
Yeah, I was referring to the other apps mentioned :)

You also don't have to resize if you use the wallpaper gallery.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] arkedk:
Thanks for the fast response. Seems like the xml is encrypted in the launcher.apk. Anyway to decrypt that?

Any idea if the two suggested apps worked to change wallpapers ALL OVER Xperia X10?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Shiwantha:
So far I have found only 2 applications on the market to do this.

1. Wallpaper Plus- $1.99

2. Wallr- Free

Wallpaper plus is more customizable. And Wallr is only allowed to pick any wallpaper in a specific folder randomly. try it out.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Boonyard:
using Open Desire and i'm getting quite bad lag when I pinch the home screen to access other screens. It only seems to have happened since I started adding Launcher pro plus widgets.

Anyone else having issues with this?

Any advice?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Heiko77:
The same here. Homescreen preview with low fps.
[Desire Themes and Apps] _cino:
the same here!

the same issue on my desire running Leedroid 2.1

adding the plus widgets to homescreen makes launcherPro lag like crazy....

but i don't need those widgets that much, so i just remove them.

i really hope that the author of launcherPro can have more concern over the stability and speed of it, not just keep adding some heavy widgets... :eek::eek:
[Desire Themes and Apps] cb8rwh:
I think in the release notes for the latest update he/she said that no new widgets would be added for a while, instead concentrating on what has been added already. I guess that is a good way to go. I assume speed and stability will improve if this is followed.
[Desire Themes and Apps] prodygee:
Maybe I'm just lucky. I'm having no lag at all. Leedroid 2.1

Only using the calendar widget.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Jgruar:
I had the same, insane lag. Fixed it with setting vm heap size to 24M, rebooting and clearing dalvik cache + cache partition and setting heap to 32M again.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Captain Splash:
LPP lags when you add too many widgets. Yoiu can improve speed if you restart it but it doesn';t last long.

I'm using 3 LLP widgets (Friends, Messaging and Agenda) and widgets for time, battery and Doubletwist and its perfect. If i add anymore it slows right down.

Splash
[Desire Themes and Apps] Jgruar:
Try adding a local.prop file ino /data containing a line that forcelocks the launcher into memory. It was echo.ro.something ADJ=1. Try googling, never had lp lag since
[Desire Themes and Apps] cCeT:
had same problem with too many widgets.fixed by doing these settings:

keep in memory - unchecked

memory usage preset - very low

use home screen cache - checked ( otherwise app drawer is too laggy)
[Desire Themes and Apps] dajbyco:
Unfortunately nothing's working for me .. I don't want to remove widgets.

I have version 0.82 and the lag is horrible! But only the first time.

If I scroll through homescreens and then pinch - the lag is big - nothing happens for a while, and then previews apear. But when I click then on any of previews and pinch again it's smooth. I can pinch and choose any of homescreens and it stays smooth, but when i scroll to left or right and then pinch - the lag is back!
[Desire Themes and Apps] dexteral:
Same here no lag on leedroid

Being thick here but i cant find my answer..

ROM manager shows Clockwork Recovery as 2.5.0.7 but if i actually boot into recovery it is showing as 2.5.0.1??

How do i flash the new recovery so it actually uses it??.. Or is it not worth it??.. ie if it aint broke dont fix it??

Cheers

Not really worth it if you're happy with it

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingnutta:
Havent a clue how to use fake flash.. think i will leave it.. Appreciate replies
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
If you boot into Recovery via ROM Manager, you are using fake flash! :)

Essentially ROM manager sticks an update.zip file in the root of your SD card and reboots into recovery and "fake flashes" this file - essentially it runs your latest ClockworkMod Recovery, but it can't actually really flash to to the phone, which is why you need to use UnrEVOked.

how to do it and not end up paying for unlock code

I do not understand, while android community being open and willing to share knowledge you still have to pay for unlock code
[General Questions and Answers] AndroHero:
the unlock code has nothing to do with google or android, unlock codes arnt free because generally, branded handeset are subsidised by that particular network, so they are cheaper than factory unlocked handsets, i find it perplexing that you dont mind paying for a htc desire but refuse to pay £10 to unlock it
[General Questions and Answers] desire12345:

But if you do not mind paying for your "desire" and your unclok code I find it perplexing that you would not pay 0.99$ for apps

I wanted to see if it is possible to pull the sims and the feeds and updates widget off the phone and put on my droid. Does anyone know if this is possible. thanks
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] henreeg:
It's possible. I think more than half the people in here have already uninstalled all of those unwanted apps. You have to be rooted, and have a terminal of some sort. I use "Better Terminal" which is AWESOME. I used it to uninstall all the bloatware.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] demo23019:
He isn't asking about removing bloatware he wants to know if possible to move some apps that came preloaded with his vibrant to his droid 2.

OP im not sure
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] henreeg:
Oh, sorry for misunderstanding.

I believe you can pull out the software... I've pulled out software and put it on my gf's phone. You can try it with Root Explorer [you have to be rooted].

The files are in system/app folder.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tgrantjr:
Ok, i went ahead and rooted the vibrant and used root explorer to get the file i needed for the widget. It must be a samsung thing only because it will not install on my droid.

No you can't get any samsung widgets on the droid they only work with tw. You can't evan use them if you are using adw or launcher plus.

what should i do..?

is it just the same like flashing the ROM..?

download the radio & hboot files that you would like to upgrade to.

rename it to PB31IMG.zip and place on the root of your sd card.

boot into bootloader and it will ask you if you want to update, press up to confirm.

BE SURE TO NANDROID BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gospeed.racer:

So make sure you have a kernel or an entire rom ready to flash, as you probably will be looping without it.

[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I don't know if this a problem with gmail its self or my phone but gmails keep getting stuck in out box and not sending and when deleting read emails they somehow reappear in my inbox as if I didn't delete them.

Sometimes I can't view all my emails, it says ( 1 ) for example but it won't show it no matter how many times i refresh. I have my gmail account synced with SE sync and I'm really puzzled to why this is happening. Anyone else got the same?

Iv tried doing a master reset twice this week on the phone ( x10i with latest fw r2ba26 rooted ) and this has not helped.
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
I had the same problems and I found out eventually what has been causing them.

I will try to explain, but keep in mind, my english are not perfect! :rolleyes:

So, Gmail works via the Google Cloud, which means that you need to be constantly connected to the internet so that you can get notification and/or send mails. Under Settings>Synchronisation the Gmail should be ticked in order for that to work.

However, if you don't want to use the cloud thing (untick the Gmail option), you can still use Gmail.

But in that case, you need to manually ask Gmail to connect to the internet.

So, after composing a mail and hitting Send, you need to press the Menu button and choose Refresh. That way your mail will be sent.

The same applies when you delete an email. You need to hit Refresh for that too.

Also, after reading an email, you should hit Refresh in order for it to be marked are read.

As for the "unread" mails that don't show up, sometimes they "get stuck" in the cloud and not marked as read, after you have actually opened them.

If you open Gmail on your PC, or on your phone's browser, you will see the mail that hasn't been marked as read.

Hope I helped! ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I understand what you are saying, your english is fine :) The thing is i do have gmail sync turned on within the settings and even if i keep pressing refresh nothing happens about the ones which i delete or have read, makes absolutly no differnce apart from anything i deleted will come up as unread again.

I have just reflashed my phone with SEUS and 'repaired' so we'll see if that helps.

Thanks for the quick reply by the way :)

Hello,

I am currently using a stock-based ROM and want to switch to Azure. My problem is that I spent a lot of time to collect profile pictures, link contacts to their FB accounts etc.

Is there a way to backup my contacts to include everything as it is now? The in-built export does not save every information.

My Legend is rooted, so I thought there could be a way to backup the contacts app including it's data as it is stored on my phone now but I have no clue how to do that.

Every idea or solution is highly appreciated! Thanks for you help!
[Legend General] ananthm2k5:
I have the same query ... maybe someone with some expertise can help ??
[Legend General] denisman:
Ok I just tried it risking to go through everything again (especially manually linking contacts to their FB Accounts with different names and merging FB-only accounts with my phone contacts took a long time).

I just found out about Titanium Backup and am pretty sure that it gets the job done easily, just in case you want to spend the money for it, which I can't :D

What I did:

- Copied "/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db" to my SD-Card using Root Explorer.

- Installed Azure

- Installed Root Explorer again

- Moved contacts2.db back overwriting the new empty one.

- Installed Facebook

- Synced my contacts again.

- Restarted my phone

Worked great. My contacts are back, everything is linked correctly even the ones with different names, FB-only accounts are merged with phone contacs again.

Maybe someone with more experience knows an easier method or a good app for this to save some time.
