[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I already gave a suggestion...

Those are probably the two most common reasons my phone isn't sleeping, but obviously there's a lot of other factors to a phone properly sleeping.

Hence the reason for the LED indicator... it lets you know if the phone is sleeping or not, as having the phone always running at full tilt is not good for battery life.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] RobertDeBord:
Anyone using an app for their contacts that's better than the stock Captivate app?

My problem with the app is likely due to how I use it, but it's driving me crazy. I have 3 accounts syncing their contacts to it. 90% of each account is a dupe of the other accounts, but I need to have all 3 for that 10%. If I don't, then I have to pick one and constantly take the time to manually make sure it's up to date. Instead I think the spool should just work.

My problems are so far it only lets you combine 4 contacts. I *could* go through all 3 accounts and clean them up, but again, I think the app should be more flexible and let me combine as many as I want. Also, it doesn't let me choose a group of contacts within gmail. WHY does it think I need the contact info of EVERY person I've ever communicated with?! Let me just limit which groups within the account I want synced, especially to limit it to "my contacts" within gmail.

Anyone with similar frustrations find something better?

Thanks!

Thanks!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Little Dragon:
the one included in the Cognition ROM is pretty awesome. i just noticed it today (i don't use that app too often). it looks the same but you can swipe left to text a contact or swipe right to call. i found this very slick!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] uiskibum:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] mircury:
I would try dialer one. It's free and an amazing app. I'm not sure it will do what you want but there are tons of options. My favorite is the swiping to go to contacts, favorites, and call log. I started using it because I wanted my favorites to come up first thing without a dial pad when I hit the phone. Hope it helps.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Sebring5:
all the contact apps are half done as is e mail

How can you take Android seriously without a decent contacts manger or e mail client?

I have tried them all the contact apps and they are all difficult if not impossible to use. Some do not enable all the fields you need and on others the search is incorrect. None of them mesh with or incorporate the phone & text function well. Right now I'm working with the 2.2 contacts manager, 2.2 messaging and Touchdown. It takes all three to marginally achieve what I need. This is an opportunity for someone.

I just installed the CyanogenMod e mail to try and find a decent e mail client. It is not much better then the 2.2 e mail (it does include your message when you reply), Touchdown or any of the others. Touchdown would be good if it would handle multiple accounts of each and every variety.There is another opportunity here.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] alphadog00:
If you are syncing 3 contact sources and there are some dupes, then those are linked - you can see all 3 individually, but picking the contact source you want to view, or you can unlink those 10%.

As for groups, 2.2 appears to fix this, but for now, one solution is to export all your contacts to your SD card then import them all to your "phone". The phone address book allows you to create and manage groups.

Maybe the stock Android contact manager is better. I am holding out for 2.2 as what i have seen, looks like they fixed most issues involving groups and google groups.

[Fascinate Android Development] SirKronan:
I rooted my sister's phone, then installed launcher pro, and it bricked! (UGH!!!)

So I came here looking for rescue and did the Odin system restore steps. Like another poster there mentioned, it appeared to work, and everything seemed fine other than one critical component: it wouldn't sync at all with her google account!!! I've tried installing the clockworkmod, too, because that same poster said he got it to work by doing the clockworkmod reset. I can't get it to reboot into the clockworkmod recovery console, just the android one. How do I get to the clockworkmod console???

Remember that I have no market access until the google account syncs properly.

I did all the steps I could, but I still can't get the phone to sync with my sister's Google account. It locked up and perma-black screened after rooting and installing launcher pro, so I tried to use the backup from Odin to save it. Saved the phone. Seems to work. The verizon backup option successfully restores her contact info.

I can't get it to sync with her google account, and I am LOSING MY MIND because I have to leave early tomorrow morning, and I don't want to leave my sis. with a broken phone.

And where in the heck do you get the oft-mentioned "update.zip" file from???

HELP!!
[Fascinate Android Development] namebrandon:
Go into Privacy - Settings - and do the system reset / factory restore. That should allow you to re-synch with google.
[Fascinate Android Development] SirKronan:
Ok. Giving it a try right now.
[Fascinate Android Development] namebrandon:
What guide did you follow for Clockwork? I've seen a number of people with the missing update.zip file, and I cannot figure out how that is happening.

It's like 1 out of every 5 people have this problem, and I don't get it.

This one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788099

Did it carefully, step by step, as far as I can tell. Now I'm having trouble rooting the phone again after that factory reset. It pushes the files, resets the phone, then starts the rooting process ... then it says device disconnected, even though I see no signs that it is, and it still says on the screen that it is connected. I think I will try the long, manual rooting option next.
[Fascinate Android Development] SirKronan:
Ok, I successfully got it to root, but only by the slower manual method. I could never get the one click method to work again, even after multiple tries. It got all the way through most of the process but failed to install superuser.apk. Once that part was done, it's been working great so far. I hope. So far so good ....
[Fascinate Android Development] namebrandon:
Unfortunately I think you learned that the hard way..

Take your time, don't take shortcuts, don't make assumptions.

Most of the time the one-click solutions end up causing more problems than their worth.

I bet if you had to do that "long" process again, you could do it in ~5 minutes now. :)

Glad you got it all working.

Compatible?? Meaning what exactly :confused:

They are different phones, with completely different hardware aimed at two different markets.

AKA Samsung I5700 Galaxy Spica, here is a review.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
that's exactly what i'm trying to understand what is Samsung trying to play?

the the 3rd world countries, Samsung is advertizing that phone as Galaxy Lite....

many over there believes that's the low en version of the Galaxy S, which might not really be the case, as it looks like a completely different design, even spec is so old
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PhoenixFx:
I dont think Samsung is trying to fool anyone. Why would someone think this phone has anything to do with Galaxy S ? Because the name Galaxy ??

Samsung adopted the Galaxy brand before they announced Galaxy S. The first ever phone to be released under Galaxy line was i7500, AKA Samsung Galaxy. Then came Galaxy Lite (which actually came before Galaxy S), so why would anyone think a phone which came before Galaxy S is a low end version of SGS ?

BTW there are few other phones in Galaxy lineup , i.e :Galaxy A, S, U, Apollo, Beam, Tab , 3, and 5. They are all different phones. Unless Samsung specifically calls another phone Galaxy S Lite/2/Pro or something like that, no one should associate any other Galaxy variant with SGS.

[HTC Aria General] new2droid:
I don't use my phone too much.with cyanogen, my battery lasts forever.so cyanogen for me.
[HTC Aria General] Sengfeng:
Pretty much the same as Mast above. I keep a nandroid backup of CM6 as well as Liberated on my phone, and switch back and forth, but spend 90% of my time in Liberated.

I can't wait for "Liberated" 2.2...
[HTC Aria General] ioft:
CM6. Here's why...

Freedom, battery life, speed, lack of Sense (I hated it), and flexibility.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
CM6...im loving the battery life, the speed, and the flexibility. I was hesitant to make the switch from Liberated at first because I'd lose Sense...but I dont miss Sense at all.
[HTC Aria General] MiteMouse:
I don't even remember what Sense feels like. I just don't like the linkage in contacts. Liberated had been improved a lot with features that comparable with CM6 so I think I'm going to nandroid both for fun.
[HTC Aria General] kopimi:
I'm still on the fence, I want to try and give Cyanogen another shot (I only ran it for a few hours before going back to Liberated), but right now I'm running Liberated, mainly because I'm still very close to the stock ROM that I'm comfortable with, while still getting perks like root, tethering, and a lack of bloatware. One thing I really hate about Cyanogen in comparison to Liberated/Stock is the call screen. When someone calls you and it has the choice to answer/deny, I think the stock looks a million times better. I also dont like the status bar :(
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
I prefer CM6 all day everyday.

I hate the HTC dialer and contacts replacement, "people". I don't need more category possibilities for my contacts than I have contacts. I want to be able to bring up contacts and do a one touch dial, without having to have a full page widget to access favorites quickly.

I don't like that with the Sense UI, HTC has taken Android so far from AOSP that is takes months for them to get updates complete after the Nexus One is updated. Then it takes more months for carriers to approve those updates for use on branded phones.

Sense is nonsense, IMO. Of course you may feel differently, and that's why we have choice.
[HTC Aria General] MiteMouse:
Dito on the contacts "people" list. You just remind me where was my head ache. Both roms do have goods and bads
[HTC Aria General] xdafly:
for those of your going back and forth between liberated and cm6, do you have to make any changes to your installed apps or you simply wipe everything and use clockwork to load one or the other ?
[HTC Aria General] klyon:
I'm with you two about the contacts; the HTC "improvements" are anything but.

However, I do like the sense dialer and a lot of other things about sense.

I used CM on my G1 from day one, and there were always little "gotchas:" lags, force closes, things that didn't quite work. That may not be the case with CM on the Aria, but I really like the way the phone works now. It even took me a while to root and try Liberated: nothing was broken.

That said, choice is beautiful. Many thanks to attn1 and everyone at CM for providing that.
[HTC Aria General] pgill34:
Cyanogen

Because I don't like sence as much as I thought I would. Pluse I think CyanogenMod has more features.
[HTC Aria General] Peowraaku:
If I dump sense for cm, will I lose the nice HTC flash player integration? I understand flash in 2.2 isn't supported by aria CPU?
[HTC Aria General] kopimi:
If the CPU didn't support Flash then how would an HTC app make it suddenly support it? You'll be fine.
[HTC Aria General] bkmo:
The fact is flash 10.1 only works on Froyo, and if you have an Arm7 Cpu. The aria does not have the correct cpu. Flash was compiled for that cpu ONLY. What the aria has is Flash Lite from HTC, not the same.
[HTC Aria General] bkmo:
I too have had glitches and lockups with CM that i don't have with Liberated. For those that don't like the contacts integration of HTC, then you should really try Dialer One from the market. Cm is very configurable, but Liberated to me is more stable. If not for Dialer One I would probably live with the daily lockup I had with CM6.
[HTC Aria General] BelacNongaw:
HTC has a proprietary flash lite. Not fully featured but in many cases sufficient. Certainly beats nothing. I like having it but doesn't make CM6 a deal breaker for me.
[HTC Aria General] maevro:
Ive learned not to care about Sense UI but not having App Market is an issue. I cant find things through app brain or even ways to side install them because I cant find most of the actual apps.

How do I put the App Market back into CM6? Thanks.
[HTC Aria General] bkmo:
Just install the latest Google Apps package. It should be up to date on the first page [OP] of the CM6 thread.

Edit: Looks like there is a newer Gapps package here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/download/126-google-addon-mdpi-20100926/ but you need to be a Cyanogenmod forum member to download it.
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
It doesn't. HTC has "flash lite" which is proprietary. The Aria CPU does not support flash. It requires an ARM7 processor or better, which the Aria lacks.

Dialer One is still a lousy replacement for AOSP counterparts. And what daily lockup? I am as stable on CM6 as on Liberated since 6.0.2.1, and the kernel in recent nightlies is even better. There are a couple of tweaks I want to implement, but neither affect stability.
[HTC Aria General] bkmo:
I was running on the 9-15 nightly and started to get some nasty freezing where I could do nothing but a battery pull, or wait until it rebooted. Sometimes after a call, sometimes after listening to music, but usually after 24 hours of uptime. I am running the same apps on Liberated and this does not happen. The only different app being Beautiful Weather. I am waiting and watching cmsrc to see when the camera and such are finished and I will try it again. I am truly a Cyanogen fan. Have been running one of his roms since the beginning. I jumped from Jesus Freek's roms as soon as I tried my first Cyanogen flash. :)
[HTC Aria General] Troggie:
I switched back to liberated after spending a month on cm6. The reason was I started having weird issues with the cm6 release after running it for a month. Even re-installing the cm6 didn't fix those isdues.
[HTC Aria General] klyon:
Yeah, "gotchas." I guess everyone doesn't get 'em. I'm glad. But I always did: freeze on a - invariably important - call, lag with the map loading right when I needed it to work, this that or the other. I denied their importance (and to be honest, the G1 needed all the help it could get), but I was really glad to have a phone (the Aria) that was as quick and trouble free as my old SE W810i and various Nokias from the Dumb Era.
[HTC Aria General] Noobla_Khan:
Ditto...I can not wait for liberated 2.2!

I like the extra options in 2.2/Cyanogen but Liberated seems a little smoother and my battery lasts longer plus attn1 is slowly catching up with Cyanogen as far as options in Liberated which now has hotspot and apps2sd support built in.

Either way you really can't go wrong.

I know i'm repeating myself but Liberated 2.2 will be my pot of gold!

Seen these comments many times and wondered why people just didn't seem to know, but Live Wallpapers do work with Liberated AND SenseUI. I've been using them for quite a while, including on Liberated R012:

So either I killed this thread somehow... or people stopped to play with liberated LWP :)
[HTC Aria General] PiratePetey:
I prefer cyanogen. Live wallpapers and battery lufe are a pkys. Also, you can turn sound off from the lock screen, key for me cause I'm using it in the middle if class. Just in case I forgot, I can turn silent on without removing the phone from my pocket.

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Sense UI

I appreciate the CM project and think its philosophy is right on. I have been following it closely in these forums, and look forward to installing it on my phone again. I do wish hardware manufacturers would just leave Android alone.

HAVING SAID THAT, I switched back to Liberated as of R006, and things have only gotten better since the Aria was released in Asia w/o AT&T crapware. (thanks attn1!) It came down to two things for me: text selection and GPS. The HTC Email program has text selection! AFAIK, neither Android Email nor Touchdown have this! GPS is faster and more reliable with Sense, don't know why.

Other nice things are the notifications/music controls on the Sense lockscreen, and battery life is better (at least for the way I use my phone).

Thanks to everyone, and especially attn1, for giving us these hard choices :)
[HTC Aria General] stickbo:
Ran many versions of cm and it was great but just a bit buggy. I have since switched to liberated and all is well in the world of aria. Performance is spot on and the stability is perfect. At the end of the day all the cool whiz bang gizmos and gadgets are great but if your phone fails at the most inopportune time, its all for not. My liberated rom never locks up,fc's, or any of the other issues I had with cm. Granted issues with cm were few and far between but always seemed to happen at the worst times. Probably just me, but if thats the case, liberated must be more for me? While my quadrant and linpack scores were vastly improved with cm over liberated, I saw very little real world differences if any. I would say its a testament to attn1's skill and dedication that I am able to have a stock like rom with most of the perks of a custom rom. :p

I really appreciate the efforts of all the developers. Without them we would be stuck with stock and be it cars or phones,stock sucks! :) Since my phone is my "daily driver" I need it to be reliable as well as entertaining. Thats why I like liberated. Its like a nice bolt on ride. Sorry for the poor automotive analogies but I am an ex-auto tech.
