I have searched and no one has done anything except mention it, no one has asked for everything I am asking for. Really, its ok, I will find a way to make this work, but judging by the lack of response here I guess I should just keep it to myself. :-) Just figured since the whole point of our community was obtaining total control(or close to it) of our devices that this would be a big plus to other Evo owners, figured wrong :-b

[Captivate General] TexUs:
I've a buddy of mine that found ATK on his own, installed it, and says he sees a "noticeable" improvement in speed on his Captivate (And he's got the lag fix already). I tried to reason that it's placebo but he does swear, it was a large improvement in speed. I can look online and find other reports of this.

And before you go down that route, he had nothing much more than stock installed (Facebook, etc... Nothing that I don't have).

I've also seen someone go from 8 hours of battery life to 12 hours just by installing ATK.

Explain these.

If Android TRULY managed memory so well, how does someone gain such performance boost from killing the processes?

If ATK was actually detrimental to battery life, why does someone gain more by using it?

I've seen both sides. I haven't noticed any speed differences running ATK compared to not running it.

I have also seen another side that says ATK hurt their battery life.

Seems there's too much conflicting info out there. You can argue til you're blue in the face that "it is negative"... But you cannot deny results some people are saying. So I'm just asking those of you that argue from that perspective... To explain these situations?
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
A quick question, does your buddy kill the processes and then let the phone sit? Sure this is going to increase the battery life but so does pulling it from the phone all together.

Bottom line is there is no definitive answer as to the merits of ATK. If you like it, use it.
[Captivate General] Mercath:
Most results tend to be anecdotal in nature. Those that get better battery life out of using ATK probably don't realize it's due to ATK killing off bad apps, and not due to freed-up RAM. If Android needs more RAM, it will shut down programs by itself. That 3MB of RAM you freed up with ATK isn't nearly as useful as the fact that same app you just killed was also hogging your CPU. Cause/effect, correlation/causation, etc.
[Captivate General] Dino.:
People also get what's ive heard as the "new phone syndrome" where the phone is used constantly the first couple days, and the battery life is then thought to be horrible.

Also tell your buddy to look up settings > about phone> battery usage as the battery is largely affected by voice calls and the screen. A 5 min call uses more than you think.(thus the reasoning behind why I don't use atk)
[Captivate General] dayv:
To a large extent battery life, phone, and app performance will always be somewhat subjective. No two people are going to use their phones in the exact same manner. depending on how a person uses their phone and what they have installed on their phone ATK may very well improve their phone's performance - especially if they have a bad acting app on their phone.

As for my personal testing, my phone does better without ATK. However I was a little biased against ATK from the beginning and this could have affected my results. I have used a half dozen different linux distros over the past eight years and while I have many times had to kill or force close an application, I have never needed to manually manage memory. Linux generally does a good job at managing memory and multitasking.
[Captivate General] ageros:
I can't say for your friend, but I was using a task killer for the first month I had the phone, and now I do not. So far performance, and battery life are the same with and without. I finally removed my old task killer and installed watchdog all I have it set to do now is simply alert me if an app is using excessive cpu, which would likely be due to poor app quality anyway. Other than that I've had no issues.
[Captivate General] TexUs:
I guess this is true. I've never seen claims that Android manages CPU, etc effectively, I've just seen claims about the RAM usage.

That's what I've done as well, and yea... Can't tell a difference with and without (of course I also go "back" out of apps when I'm done).

with Launcher Pro. Launcher Pro also lets you set custom icons. Just do the following:

1 - Menu->Add or long-press the screen to choose "Shortcuts"

2 - Choose "Applications"

3 - Choose an app.

4 - Touch the icon and choose any of the text icons you have downloaded.

Is the following option selected in TCPMP? Options>Zoom>Fit Best.

With this selected, TCPMP should fill the screen as much as possible (without "chopping" off any of the picture) depending on the aspect ratio of the video. So you may get some letterboxing. But either the height or the width of the picture should go all the way to the edge. Select "Fill Screen" if you don't want any letterboxing (but you may have some of the picture chopped off).

Does anyone know how to remove small scratches from our screen?

I made a very small scratch accidentally while I was removing the paint covering the ffc hole.

Also does anyone know exactly what type of black paint t-mobile used to paint the hole? If we can figure the color out anyone who needs to send their phone in for repairs can just paint it again and remove the camera.

Sooooo any thoughts?
[Vibrant General] MichaelB91:
nothing huh.. x.x
[Vibrant General] Sapient Prophet:
since the glass is actually a ceramic, I'd say you're going to be hard pressed to remove a scratch. I'm not sure though, but you might try a clear acrylic to fill the scratch. I don't know on the other part.
[Vibrant General] Tarzanman:
Clear acrylic won't fix the scratch because acrylic has a different refractive index than glass.

Your only options are to either polish the scratch (not likely), or learn to live with it.

There might be glass repair products out there, but I don't know of any
[Vibrant General] MichaelB91:
gotya, thanks.. do you believe it will make a big impact once i get the camera installed? like ruin the image.
[Vibrant General] eortizr:
you can try dry mustard and vinegar mixed together, apply and buff (attach a q-tip to a dremel)...
[Vibrant General] Qwijib0:
Doubtful, the scratch is going to be so close to the low resolution lens that I think you won't even be able to tell.

Removing glass scratches

Removing glass scratches are tricky. I posted before how to polish plastic. The same is true with glass only there are no solvents that degrade glass so no worries there (couple of acids do but you can't buy).

Here is what you need to do :

1. Mask off EVERYTHING you do not want touched

2. then you can use a dremel with a small buffing wheel or puff ball (you can get @ home depot or Lowes... etc

3. I would use fine polishing compound and then High gloss compound (you can get from an auto body shop (the same for buffing out a newly painted car)

4. Be VERY careful not to heat up the surface or you can crack the glass.

Finally, this will take awhile (maybe as long as an hour) and if the scratch is deep it will warp the surface and make some of the display deformed looking so look at it carefully and decide if this is worth the effort.

The other crap on the market that are fillers, really do not work for small scratches like this. they are designed for larger blemishes, so the chances of these staying in place are slim to never

hope that helps
[Vibrant General] Keslynn:
Not sure what kind of paint was originally over the camera opening but I imagine nail polish would be an effective (and cheap) substitute. With an amount so small would someone notice the difference?
[Vibrant General] MichaelB91:
I'm just going to wait and see if the camera can see clearly through it, and ill decide what do to after that.

Thank you (everyone) for all the help. I really appreciate it :)

[Droid 2 General] facelessuser:
You just want to replace the wallpaper? This is easy.

1. Just put the picture on your phone.

2. Long press on the wallpaper until a menu pops up.

3. Select wallpaper

6. Apply
[Droid 2 General] jdmba:
Thank you ...

Thank you ... would you happen to know the preferred dimensions of the picture for a Droid 2 background image?
[Droid 2 General] facelessuser:
Doesn't really matter. When you select the picture, it will give you a cropping square. You can move the square and resize it, but the ratio will remain the same. I think it is more like a optimal ratio than a size. But it crops the pictures with your guidance and scales accordingly.

how can i go back to the original cm6 look?

if i restore the rom i backed up i'd obviously lose any changes between that backup and now. is there a way to flash a mod (like cm6) without having to start from scratch?
