JD is Enabled (blue button with green ON light).

@cognitivel0gic, what Standby option are you talking about? I don't see anything that says Standby on my version. Are there different versions out there? From the Help button, mine says "Evolution 1.8.8 beta". I'm using JD on Samsung Epic (Galaxy S)

And what about that activity log I see in the help screen? Does that keep growing forever??? Is there ANY documentataion for this App?
[Epic 4G General] cognitivel0gic:
Sorry by standby I was referring to the timeout option.
[Epic 4G General] odub303:
If you disabled data for googletalk, are you having problems with the market?
[Epic 4G General] stud_muffler:
No problems with the market. I disable GTalk and GVoice.
[Epic 4G General] odub303:
Good to know, thanks. I think the market problems are related to gtalkservice.apk.
[Epic 4G General] mmediaman:
@cognitivel0gic,

Thanks for the tip about double clicking some of the JD setup icons to make them customizable!

That was an important tip that I did not notice and never saw it mentioned anywhere else.

I am not a very heavy user of cell phones, but JD certainly IS doing a good job of squeezing more juice out of my battery and I could almost swear that charging time is MUCH improved. Before, it seems like it took forever to charge.... probably because battery juice was being sucked faster than it could be replenished... especially using car chargers. With my moderate use, I can take the handset off charge at 7am, use Google maps for traffic to and from work, make a few phone calls, do a few google searches and listen to Pandora for maybe an hour and still have more than 25% battery by 10pm.

Sprint really needs to take a hard look at what Apps like Juice Defender does and get their (Sprint Tech) act together. I believe what we are experiencing is subpar implementation and not many people questioning it because they aren't tech-savy enough. Am I seeing things or did they sneak and remove the Time Without Signal info from the Settings > Battery Use menu?
[myTouch 3G Slide Accessories] tubaking182:
Is there a dock station for the slide that will hold and charge phone in landscape mode? i am looking for something that will keep phone on desk clock mode to use as an alarm clock(power flickers in my apt any time it rains). any body know of a dock that meets this description?

or suggestions/plans at creating a home made dock would help, and if anyone knows of a way to make phone recognize "dock mode" when plugged in and possibly start desk clock app right away
[myTouch 3G Slide Accessories] F0rgiven:
I do not believe there is considering the charging port is on the bottom of the phone as opposed to the side.
[myTouch 3G Slide Accessories] beartard:
I've seen instructions for making custom docking cradles out of little more than a USB cable and some epoxy resin. You could do the same thing with Sugru or any other substance that sets up over time.

Iirc, the "dock mode" on most phones works using magnets in the cradle. The phone has a sensor inside to detect when it's docked. The MT3GS doesn't have such a sensor, so I doubt it would work for that purpose.

Of course an officially licensed piece of plastic and wire would cost so much lol.
[myTouch 3G Slide Accessories] reukiodo:
Useful, Expensive

myTouch 3G Slide Charging Cradle

I have one and it works excellent.

It also contains a bluetooth headphone sink and 3.5mm out, but still doesn't make it worth the $50 they want for it. Not as many used items, so it's hard to find it cheaper. AFAIK, no one except T-Mobile sells it directly.

I actually have my computer paired to the bluetooth sink to allow my computer to play music on the speakers next to my bed. This is really nice for me as a night stand clock on my phone, and access to all the music playing on my computer.
[myTouch 3G Slide Accessories] btate0121:
I'm using a business card holder. works fantasic. I use BT headphones at work so i don't need an audio out jack.. just a way to set my phone upright (portrait or landscape). If you're looking for a cheap alternative that still looks nice get a business card holder. LOL

I really want to edit the protips widget text but I don't know how. I'm a complete noob other than I know how to theme a little bit. Someone please link me to a good tutorial? Again, complete noob but totally motivated to learn this. Thanks!
[Android Software Development] chili434:
Download an app call Droid Tips. It has a UI to let you edit the tips and change the colors of the droid!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ensonnosne:
When I make or receive a call, the sensor recognizes that the phone is next to my ear and disables the screen, but when I move it away from my ear to look at the screen sometimes the screen doesn't turn on. Not even if I shake the phone in all directions. Is it defective? Is there a hidden setting I can change?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] AisforAustin:
Looking for that new contacts widget that shows the latest updates from your contacts from the Desire HD dump..Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] nscott69:
+1
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RdBrd83:
It's going to be a lot more involved than just pulling the apk from the desire port and putting it onto a stock rom. I tried that out of wishful thinking when it first released.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] AisforAustin:
That was the first thing I tried. Also tried installing the Contacts.apk from the Desire HD dump and still no luck either.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RdBrd83:
Decoded the apk and tried to take a little closer look at it with my very limited knowledge.. At the very least it relies on the htc framework from the HD.. So I could be wrong, but I don't see this ever getting ported on its own.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] bbeaulieu:
I searched this forum and didn't see anything on it, but if there is already something on it I'm really sorry. =[

Has anyone considered creating a stock Android theme for the Fascinate?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] ksizzle9:
it will be here when we can get asop booting, whcich they already have it just needs a few bugs worked out, like the phone working as a phone, and a few others. not to long.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] bbeaulieu:
Well, I kind of meant just a theme, not an actual AOSP build on booted on the phone.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] DrewDanger:
Search the market for Launcher Pro:)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] bbeaulieu:
I use LauncherPro already. There's not really much about it that's stock except for an app drawer. =P
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mrlanrat:
As most of you know the Verizon Skype app sucks because it only routes the call over Verizon's voice network (and in the latest version they let you keep your wifi on, but the app does not use it)

Iv recently found a nice app called Nimbuzz http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.nimbuzz

Nimbuzz can connect to Skype and let you use it as true VoIP, it will let you make and receive Skype called over 3G and WIFI. (your phone does not even need to be activated) And its not even limited to Verizon users. Fore free, it is the best Skype client for android (better than the official android app)

I just wanted to share my find with XDA.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] halcyon_22:
great find, i know a few ppl looking for this! i appreciate the info
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jerichi:
http://www.928droid.com/DroidX.htm

Download over your stock or themed 2.3.15 and it will deodex everything for you. Doesn't mess with root or anything else like that. Just used it and works great also the 928 blackglass is a great theme. Been using it since I rooted.

You can install a diffrent theme after and it will still be deodexed
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jloya:
thank you :)

do you mind listen how/ where you put the zip to install??
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jloya:
nvmm got it :)
[Droid X Themes and Apps] silversonic1:
I wish the deodex didn't come with the theme.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] kdkinc:
Use the 928 theme to deodexed then use his "Back to stock" theme

:eek::eek:

PS...Excellent Theme by the way
[Droid X Themes and Apps] silversonic1:
The back to stock didn't undo the twitter app mod.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Trongable:
Yeah, it leaves the twitter and facebook apps skinned. I had to delete those .apks from system/apps/, reboot, and reinstall them. No biggie though.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] GoogleisGod:
Can the color of the clock in the top right corner be changed? Black on black strains my old lady eyes
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jerichi:
If you download the file "deodexer" the clock should he white

[Droid X Themes and Apps] sapo2112:
I am interested in deodexing through the 928 method. Can any one give me an idea on the black glass theme it comes with? Is it nice? What are the pros and cons of the actual theme?

Any info would be very much appreciated.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] debaucher:
Overall I liked the theme (on my droidX) but found it to be a bit too "black".

Had trouble reading some notification items (weatherbug etc..) since it was black text on black dropdown.

Also was not too crazy about all the "droid eye" stuff on the dropdown etc..

But I REALLY liked the notification icons, power widget icons etc..

Wish he would make a toned down version of this for the X

I used his "back to stock deodexed" to get back to stock but keep the files deodexed then installed a different theme that I like better.

D.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] sapo2112:
Great, thanks for the info!
[Captivate General] fiveoneooo:
We need to unite and let Samsung know we are unhappy with all the waiting for fixes and when we finally do get one many of us feeling that it was inadequate.

I propose we leave many message on the samsung support facebook

and along with that send many emails to the customer support department.

I know its not much but at least it is something, can't hurt to try right?

Sry but I cant post links yet so just search for samsung service on fb and you will find it. Many people are complaining on there already.
[Captivate General] fooldog01:
I posted there.

I feel your pain but I propose we wait for fixes that do not brick stock phones.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soneracar:
So I have seen videos on YouTube that have the hd2 running Ubuntu. Is there a way to run windows 7 (not windows mobile 7) or XP and use a USB hub to plug in a keyboard and mouse? This would be insanely awesome! Now YouTube also has two videos running windows 7 but I have a feeling they are either themes or remote desktop.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellraiser-rh:
Win7...WTF...

OK, i don't know the videos, but i'm really thinking this is a fake.

I've heard rumours about people get win95 running (VM/emulator?) and this

is hard to belive.

But Windows 7 is not beliveable.

I shocked my friend with XP on my HD2, but truely it was only

the "Remote-Desktop".

And i think you're right, this is what's shown in this videos.

PS: with some tunings you can play sound's

and videos through the RDP-con. (via Wlan) and this looks still

awesome.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PointZero:
You're better off getting Ubuntu to run on the HD2, which is already possible. Windows 7's touch-friendly features are also pretty demanding. It would be a bit overwhelming, even for something with the HD2's specs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] criszz:
win95 working , tested myself , but w7 .... i don't think so
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meb786:
I had Win95 on mine too......I just don't think the HD2 can handle the standalone PC version on Win7. Too make fake videos on youtube....probably this is one of them
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevmass:
windows 7 32 bit would melt the battery the demand for power would mean you could not have it unplugged at all im also sure you would need a big memory card cuase windows 7 needs at least 2gb ram to run and probably a good 5 gb of hard drive space wich would probably mean mutiple partinions on the sd card and thats just to start
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soneracar:
I mostly agree but how is it that my netbook with 1gb of ram runs win7 just fine. (I did installed full 32bit)

Space I don't think is an issue, what about the XP phone? There are other phones and mini tablets that run windows and do fine. Maybe a modded version with certain resolution and bigger start button ect. Granted you can't run Photoshop but maybe open office or basic tasks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mon_money:
well .. i am using win 95 on my touch hd.. and itz not fake.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slim84:
Well honestly u cant compare netbook and HD2. Why? Because the CPUs got different architectures and that mean 1GHz in netbook isnt the same as 1GHz in HD2. Other thing is memory u got 1GB and HD2 512MB, well I guess for win 7 start, it would be enough, but still u have to boot the system and that is gona take a lot time. Not worth it, better remote access.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F0RCE:
But there are already Windows 7 with tuch support on laptops because some laptops support touch screen on theirs LCD
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anhyeuemmaimai:
Windows Vista/7 does not support the ARM processors used in mobile phones as they are not x86 devices. A netbook does use a x86 variant as a cpu and therefore can run any flavor of windows up to and including Windows 7
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfas:
Well, win95 and 98 works fine on my touch pro and this is not a fake, but not really usefull and takes long time to boot, do not expect playing original price of persia on your phone. I have tried a great heroes of might and magic boot img file that has a minimalised version of win95 with touchscreen drivers, that do not have any UI and just loads the game. I wonder if anyone could possibly take a look at that file and say what files should be extracter in order to add touchscreen support to normal windows images? XP would be nice, but don't forget that emulator always runs MUCH slower than original system, so...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
When the OP says they have seen "W7" on the hd2...... I think they are confusing "Windows 7" with "Windows compact embedded 7".........

its not a fake and its not remote desktop..

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTH-EVO:
Greetings all,

Well, I've spent the last week reading, reading, reading...

Now it seems my head is so full that I seem to have lost the details of how

(or at what stage) I have/can gain r/w (read/write) access on my freshly rooted

EVO 4G.

I have every intention of compiling a nice ROM. I have the HTC development

environment all set up, & I'm quite comfortable with that whole process.

But I'll be d&?%ed if I can remember the details to obtaining an r/w filesystem on the EVO.

I used Unrevoked 3.21 to root it, and I am aware that

this only provides r/w root just long enough to manage a ROM swap. Do I simply need S-OFF (Unrevoked-forever)?

Thank you for all your time and consideration.

--Chris
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
Yes, you need unrevoked forever or some method to unlock nand. UF is the easiest.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTH-EVO:
Greetings sombdy, and thank you for your reply.

Well, I took your advice, and S-OFF'd my EVO. However, any attempt to delete an app, results in an "read-only" filesystem error. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for all your time and consideration.

--Chris
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghoover1978:
You need to download root explorer, then mount as r-rw the folder you want to modify contents of.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghoover1978:
Sorry mount as r/w

[Desire Themes and Apps] maella:
Hello. Any solution for igo8 for desire? thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] artukas613:
Try MOTONAV. It uses same Igo maps.

:-)
[Desire Themes and Apps] kaiseris:
For some reason Motonav wouldn't let me enter house number on some streets when latest TeleAtlas map is used. When I try the same street on iGO (with wrong resolution of course) I can enter house number. Any ideas?
[Desire Themes and Apps] sudkcoce:
Happens to me too. Change the map to some other one...

For now, as far as I know, the ONLY good gps navigation for our Desire is MOTONAV...

Good luck.
[Desire Themes and Apps] mlehtola:
Only? Whats wrong with Sygic,I think its ok. Like igo8 too on my wm
[Desire Themes and Apps] Johnti:
I don't agree. I'm using Navigon with no problems.
[Desire Themes and Apps] kaiseris:
I would but Teleatlas maps have best coverage and least mistakes compared to Navteq and Regio (local map maker). At least here.

Before I thought Motonav is equal to iGO (Android version). Too bad it's not true. I hope Nav'n'Go will sort this out soon.

P.S. Is there a working map changer for Motonav? Now I just manually rename map files to switch between them.
[Desire Themes and Apps] maella:
Some innovation?
[Desire Themes and Apps] hija31:
I have iGOMyWay_8.4.2.124036 ( not Motonav ) installed on my Desire and working fine. It's not like iGO 8 but better than Motonav.
[Desire Themes and Apps] ilya.glants:
you have it working on full screen...?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Sevennl:
there are iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242 for the desire out there, mine is full screen and working perfectly, including the speedcam POI's.
[Desire Themes and Apps] pilgrim011:
Warez is forbidden on xda forums. Go to the official site and buy iGo.
[Desire Themes and Apps] hija31:
Sorry for mistake because I don't use it any more, but it's iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242 and not 8.4.2.124036

and I had to install it again .

In my opinion, the iGOMyWay is not near as good as iGO8 which I have on Win.Mobile, so I use CoPilot on Desire.

Here are some photos .
[Desire Themes and Apps] nuflood:
I have installed igo8 on the desire and it looks ok but I can't use it because the program doesn't respond right to the touch. I touch at one place and it either doesn't respond or something else (a lot higher on the screen) is chosen instead.

anybody knows how to fix this?

thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] paul.c:
It has worked on my phone without problems with maps, pois and the whole package. Full screen.
[Desire Themes and Apps] nuflood:
Thanks for the reply but I know it works for most ppl. I'm asking if anyone encountered my problem and know how to fix it.
[Desire Themes and Apps] malachi777:
there are different versions of igo8. if you download for a smaller or bigger resolution u cant use it. download igo8 480x800
[Desire Themes and Apps] nuflood:
thanks.

i installed that version. i tried for fun all the others but they were even worse because not only they didn't respond well but they werent full screen.

i know only of one more guy with desire that has the same problem.
[Epic 4G General] schizopunk:
So as I read through the forum I see many people say that the Epic 4G has some pretty bad battery issues. Well, I've had a few Android phones and by far the Epic has the best battery life I have ever seen yet. If you guys have any questions about my settings or anything, feel free to ask me.

Here's a screen shot of my battery life from the other day... it was pretty "Epic".

1 day 9 hours 50 minutes 1 sec
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
how much time was with phone actually in use

impressive
[Epic 4G General] schizopunk:
I used it with some pretty heavy use. I was texting all day and playing around with some apps as well. I didn't charge it overnight to see how it would hold up overnight and it held up well.

I am using a custom ROM that I have actually created myself that I will be releasing shortly in a few days.
[Epic 4G General] APOLAUF:
You're also using WiFi, which dramatically improves battery life. I'd also be curious to see what your TWS is - tap on "cell standby" and see what your "time without signal" is. Some days, it's 0-1% for me; on those days, I see great battery life. Other times, I've seen as high as 50%. Those days, I get awful battery life.

In addition, there seem to be issues with the onboard DRM process running in the background (possibly a media hub thing), and other fishiness in general with the stock ROM. So, no, the Epic per se has NO battery issues, but the ROMs have some rather inconvenient bugs that have a significant effect.

BTW, congratulations on your 2^7 posts. It was such a nice number that I felt I needed to comment on it...
[Epic 4G General] schizopunk:
Yeah, my TWS is on 50% today... its always a hit or miss with that.

What I noticed is key with WiFi are two apps in the market, WiFi Status & WiFi Lock.

WiFi Status - This app will notify you that you have WiFi on when you are not connected to any wifi hotspots, essentially warning you you're using up more battery than you should be.

WiFi Lock - This app is key for me, it keeps your WiFi signal active even when your phone's screen is off. This prevents your phone from switching networks everytime you wake up your device, a HUGE battery saver I've noticed.

If anyone else has any other questions, feel free to ask.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Wait so you cant just set it to a no sleep policy with wifi from the connections menu? Not a problem to me, just curious
[Epic 4G General] schizopunk:
I may be wrong, so someone can correct me if I am, but I have yet to find a system setting that does this.
[Epic 4G General] Vandam500:
Nice and all but doesn't really mean anything at all. 21% Idle means that out of all that time, most of it wasn't in use at all.
[Epic 4G General] schizopunk:
Well, I just posted my best results but on average I normally get about 10-15 hours with my battery watching videos and playing games on my phone.
[Epic 4G General] infamousjax:
Yep. You're wrong. Under wireless networks hit the menu key and it will take you to the advanced wireless settings where you can choose to leave Wifi on when the screen is off.
[Epic 4G General] schizopunk:
Sweet, I thought it should've been there somewhere. Thanks for the tip.
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
what was the time on for the display? when i use wifi i get awesome life but wifi off i lose about 4-5 hrs
[Epic 4G General] APOLAUF:
We're not talking about the battery use percentage. We're talking about Time Without Signal, a completely separate metric that is reached by *tapping* on cell standby (not phone idle, which is yet another separate entity.)
[Epic 4G General] scriz:
Screebl is a power management app. We are talking about length of battery right out of the box, not modded with an app to control your power.

Right out of the box, no root, no custom recovery, I get 7-8 hours on a good day, with TWS at 50% all day.

Unplugged it yesterday at 630am, used for a little while, was plugged in from 9-10am by 230pm it was at 20%. Today, unplugged at 7am, its 10:30 and i'm at 70%. This gives me a STANDBY time of about 10-11 hours You don't see that as a battery issue?
[Epic 4G General] Coucher:
Thanks for this! I had saw mention in another thread about setting the wireless to stay active but couldn't find where to do it.

Thanks!

:D
