I thing thats the forum for so every body can help to answer this type of questions
[Fascinate Android Development] GoogleAndroid:
This doesn't belong in the development section, or any. A Google search would yield results. And if you don't know the difference, you shouldn't even consider rooting.
[Fascinate Android Development] ragarm:
^ I was thinking the same thing. Hence the reason I posted the question.

Goggle doesn't always explain things as well as someone with hands on experience.
[Fascinate Android Development] ragarm:
Thanks for your time.

Your explanation helps. I have messed with linux kernels on my computer before, but I wanted to make sure about this because its my phone and not a spare pc during around. Lol
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Well...

You have to admit, at least the subject is dead on.

:mad:

Symptom of a larger issue, I believe...

We need to separate things a bit better. All the support for the ROMS going on in here seems to be confusing people?

Dev forum, release forum, support forum, perhaps? XDA is becoming a huge mess which explains the recent off-shoots.
[Captivate General] peachpuff:
Is it me or does astro manager lag a lot when scrolling through directories that have lots of apps? It seems like loading the icon beside the file name slows it down a lot, once the icon image shows up it scrolls perfectly fine. Is there a way to disable showing that icon by any chance?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mftek1:
Which are you using?? And how many screens?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ace42:
I prefer the look of stock launcher, but LP does have many features+sense widgets on paid version.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mftek1:
Oh ok. Do u actually use all 7 screens?
[G2 and Desire Z General] iamjames:
I know you asked about launcher.pro but I figured I would chime in. I use adw.launcher . It get the job done and I like the features like the button binding, themes... ect. However I do like how stock 2.2 looks.

And I'm using 5 screens right now.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mftek1:
Does the app ever force close?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Crey23:
I am currently usimg Lopez, Andre hace sinse about a week from getting my G2. 8 have tried all...stock, lp, and adw...and I prefer lp.

I'm using 7 screens and customized everything...working with swipes, and custom shortcuts. I have designated my screens for specific functions...dev, media, schedules, main screen, news, twitter/facebook, app folders....this setup works very well for me, as seldom have to get to app drawer and search for the app that I want.

Stock, was a bit boring, and adw, was ok...no real distinction from lp oyher than the ability to define themes....I guess I can live without them.
[G2 and Desire Z General] EuroSpeed:
I'm using LauncherPro with 5 screens.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xzxxzx:
I've used both and I prefer to use LauncherPro Plus because I like to customize my phone a lot. I like the fact that you can adjust the size of widgets, customize icons on the dock, and the home button (which is customizable) when on the home screen shows you different desktops (reminds me of my Macbook). The last one I'm not sure if stock does or not.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mftek1:
Cool. I think I'm going to try it out
[G2 and Desire Z General] ~~Tito~~:
Launcher Pro, I use all the screens, and I like the froyo dock theme, makes it look sleek.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mftek1:
Froyo dock. I jusft tried it out and I like how u can add apps on the sides!
[G2 and Desire Z General] dibdubious:
Launcher Pro with 3 screens. I like the swipe gestures and ability to hide app names.
[G2 and Desire Z General] SynOfDreams:
I use Launcher pro plus with five screens, three docks, and swipes all configured. I love it for the customization capable and how easily I can use my phone after it was all set up.
[G2 and Desire Z General] RuncaProfundus:
I use launcherpro with 7 screens. One dock. Custom dockbackground. Widgets everywhere.

Its pretty amazing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] JRG1392:
I was completely happy using stock, I was just trying out LP to see how it was and now I can't go back.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sweetandsour:
I use launcher pro...

Have 3 screens but only use 1

Pretty much a very simple clean look..!

It works for me
[G2 and Desire Z General] cam_hamlin:
I prefer stock launcher but I also use LauncherProPlus and ADW...all with 7 screens....
[G2 and Desire Z General] Lingj:
I would use Launcher pro but the app drawer doesn't look as nice and work as smooth as stock launcher. It's somewhat smooth with overclock and no live wallpaper but with them it's a bit jumpy.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Superfrag:
ADW.Launcher. Once LP gets a swipe gesture by which I can pull down the notification bar by swiping down anywhere on the screen, I might switch to that for its widget. Oh and I like the Galaxy S implementation of the app drawer option in ADW as well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kunichiwa:
I might bathe only liner still using stock, but I luv it
[G2 and Desire Z General] gaalaagaa:
I like the stock but personally I think launcher pro is smoother so I stick with it. And how can I take a screen pic?
[G2 and Desire Z General] sinistersai4d4d:
Launcher Pro Plus with 6 screens and swipe gestures and a scrolling dock.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using telepathy and unicorn dust!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
Launcher Pro with the default of three screens. Actually, only two are being used as the home screen has just the Google search bar, the Mobile Signal widget, and Battle.net Authenticator. I do like to see my background.
[G2 and Desire Z General] .A.J.:
I'm also using ADW with 5 screens. For me, it is the best. I recently bought ADW Notifier and it is working great including the new Chuck Norris mode.

No, it hasn't for me.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a2k:
Hello All.

I need a little assistance please. I'm using Mr.Puffin's white notification bar for the latest Froyo update. I successfully hacked it and added by own transparent background by tweaking framework-res.apk and services.jar.

However one item remains and that is the button which appears in the notification bar (see attached) It has black text on a black background. I would like to change the background image for this button and I have no idea what the name is or where it resides. I've looked in the drawable-hdpi folder and can't make heads or tails of of this.

Would someone please be kind enough to advise me on how to change this button background image.

Many thanks!

* bump *

...anyone please?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JsChiSurf:
This is something I did on the Hero back in the day, and at the time, was not an easy thing to pull off, at least not for something you would assume is pretty straightforward.

Though the procedure for the EVO is a bit different, the concept is similar for pulling the hack off.

By all reasonable expectations, if you look at the status bar XML, you would assume the button being used, per the XML is:

btn_default_normal.9.png

But, in looking at the image, it is a white button, not the default black button we see (same as with the Hero post referenced above), so, just as in the Hero, it is clear that the XML is being overridden via Java code. Why they do this I have no idea, but this is indeed the case.

The other issue is, this is using common / shared framework buttons, so you can't / probably shouldn't go and modify the button, as you'll end up breaking the display elsewhere throughout Android, where the font will no longer show up given a color change that hides the font color elsewhere, i.e. white text on white button.

Digging through the smali code you can see that instead, the buttons being used are in com.htc.resources.apk, such as:

common_b_button_small_rest

common_b_button_small_press

common_b_button_small_selected

Again, though, as mentioned, it would be a mistake to recolor these buttons to be white, for example, as this will break button text display all throughout your phone, so you will want to modify the smali code to point back the original images in framework-res, rather than those referenced above in com.htc.resources.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JsChiSurf:
Did you see this reply? You bumped your post, so I'm assuming this was something you were looking to address sooner than later, but haven't heard back...

[Captivate General] dennka:
Hi all, does anybody knows how to change setting if possible, on previous screen lock there was an option to put phone sound on and off
[Captivate General] kegobeer:
Go to Sound, look under Feedback - there's a "screen lock sounds" setting.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
What I think he is talking about is the Stock Lock Screen that has the mute slide option.

If that is what you are looking for HERE it is.

If I am wrong I am sorry for the worthless post
[Captivate General] dennka:
You are right, thnx, now I have to figure ou how to do that at work :)

[Vibrant General] raycosm:
I bought my Vibrant unlocked, and I don't have a data plan of any sort, though I do have messaging. I noticed that if I disable data through the *#*#4636#*#* menu, I'm unable to send or receive MMS. However, when I have data enabled, the 3G icon appears and has the flashing arrows. In addition, when I go into the browser and try to load any page, it takes me to a web2go website. I'm worried that I might be charged for data, so my question is: will I?
[Vibrant General] m509272:
no u will not
[Vibrant General] gonintendo:
nope been using my phone like this since my g1. never been charged a penny.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
how did you get it without a data plan?
[Vibrant General] Alex530:
Unlocked or with an even more plus plan. IR Craigslist
[Vibrant General] SquareBare:
By even more plus you mean off contract right?

Their new prepaid plans actually give you 1500 minutes or texts and like 30 megs of EDGE data. It's enough for email and browsing. Not a bad deal at all if you ask me.
[Vibrant General] Pandabanana:
dont' worry mate u wont' get charged
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
Yes it is possible, T-Mobile has a sneaky way of charging even without a plan. If you access data, they charge you per megabit or megabyte or something like that, even if you don't have a plan.

You can go onto t-mobile.com and access your account, and completely turn off the option to ever access data.
[Vibrant General] sahil04:
Unless it has changed recently you're wrong...I had the vibrant without a data plan and I wasn't able to.access the internet.
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
NO, I'm not wrong, I have 5 lines on my account, only two have a data plan. The other 3 lines were being charged per use data fee because the people who have those phones were using the internet on the phone, I think it was per megabyte or megabit I'm not sure.

I had to call in and complain several times until I got a supervisor that explained to me that even without a data plan, if the internet is accessed you get charged for the bandwith usage. She showed me how to log onto my t-mobile and completely turn off access to data, and they reversed the fees.

but to answer you question no I checked all the markets on my phone and none had anything like that also this thread is the 2nd google hit so thats no help either.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kingvaj23:
Do you guys no that since I used the google goggles remover app to delete goggles that when I receive the OTA that anyhting will happen? Because to do the manual update I have to install the stock rom and stuff..should I be worried???
[G2 and Desire Z General] s00paSold3r:
I did the OTA update manually to and I still have my Google Goggles.
[G2 and Desire Z General] krayshunist:
What?

You %^*& with your /system so you'll have to flash the stock rom if you want the update, whether it's OTA or manual.
[G2 and Desire Z General] trazipomoc:
There should be a thread on this but you'll have to replace the files that were deleted to get rid of the goggles in order for update to process correctly. Basically you have to flash your phone to the shipped rom. Instructions are here in the forum. I had this done to my phone few hours ago.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TL24:
Nothing will happen bro, you'll just have to re-install all your apps again since re-installting the stock rom will wipe your device.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kingvaj23:
What if I just install the goggles app when I get the OTA?

If its going to wipe everything in the update then I shouldn't be worried right?
[G2 and Desire Z General] kingvaj23:
Did you do that too?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bishybob:
If you used the Google Goggles remover program the OTA won't install. This means you have to flash factory ROM and

will lose all data on your G2 (except for what is backed up)

If you didn't use the Goggles remover then just wait for or install the normal OTA. You don't lose any data and the OTA will fix Goggles.

Hope this helps.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kingvaj23:
Faaaaadddgeee I used goggles remover..are you 100% sure:O

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
My Nexus One has developed a stuck pixel. As a launch week buyer, I have 2 more months on my warranty. I also don't own any other phone compatible with my carrier, so I'd prefer a device swap over waiting for a repair - especially since I'm located in Canada.

Any experiences to report involving warranty swaps now that the Nexus One is no longer sold?

Also, I have a little scuff on the corner of my phone, which may or may not count as normal wear and tear. Has anyone here ever been charged for phone damage after a device swap?

I've rooted it but the bootloader is still locked. I was thinking that if I restore to stock via PASSIMG, Google shouldn't know the difference. Perhaps I'll even be able to restore the nandroid backup of one phone to the other.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Feh. The device swap is no longer an option unless I use a US address. I'm not incredibly excited at the prospect of having to cross the border and pick up my device in a strange place in order to obtain warranty service.

And since I don't currently own any other phone that'll work on WIND Mobile, sending it in for warranty is not an option either.

My choice is, cough up some money for an interim replacement phone, or cross the border for a device swap.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v0kal:
You can have it shipped to my house...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devastatin:
LOL, i just shipped mine out, using a dumb phone is really freakin me out!

Miss my Nexus one already.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Heh thanks, but Baltimore is pretty far from Vancouver.

I'll mull over my options. Warranty ends early in January, but I have a 1-year extension due to my credit card's extended warranty program. I could go with a receiving service in Blaine or Point Roberts but it's just a pain. Or alternately I could get myself a secondary phone to tide me over... which costs money.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotwake424:
Off topic, But did you have to call google to setup the exchange? My power button is beginning to not want to work all the time so i'm thinking about warranty exchanging it. However, my phone is rooted with s=off think that will be a problem?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I'm in Washington state...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Where in WA?

If I go ahead with it via a US address, I could always use The Letter Carrier in Point Roberts. Still it's a pain.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I'll PM you...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
Remember that HTC uses SLCD on their Nexus One phones. I called Warranty Repair to setup a swap and she said that all phone are exchanged with the new SLCD screens.

So if you have an AMOLED and you don't want an SLCD just think of your options. Either deal with the pixel and keep Amoled or swap to a new SLCD. Some people say that they've swapped and they've gotten AMOLED in return, so I think its a 50/50 chance.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
I've seen the SLCD Desire models. I think I actually like them better because the jagged edges of the Pentile matrix give me a headache after a while. So that wouldn't bother me too much. However it would make ROM Manager useless until Clockwork Recovery is updated to support SLCD. So I'd need to flash Amon recovery manually via flash_image.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
Here is a battery mod i put together. The screenshots below give it no justice. Try it and let me know what you think. It will work on any 2.1 ROMS*** MUST BE A ROM WHICH SUPPORTS ACCURATE BATTERY OR HAVE ALREADY APPLIED ANOTHER ACCURATE BATTERY MOD (ex. Bionix Roms)***. This swaps out some files in Framework-res.

***NANDROID FIRST***

-Open Metamorph

-Select 'Unzip/Extract New Theme'

-Select 'BatteryUpdate.zip'

-Apply All

***This morph ONLY mods the battery***

Thank you Flak_Munkey for your help!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
You said that the morph only mods the battery but there is a SS of the wifi, bt etc, are those changed also? The battery mod looks nice, I dig it.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
Ok I applied it and its just the battery icon as stated in the op. I have to admit its pretty sweet. How do the percentages work? The mod shows my battery is at 80%, however a battery widget I have says 75%.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ljv:
Thanks. Been looking for the stock battery in blue with percentage. I'm also interested on the calculation. The icon shows 100 but when I do settings;about phone;status, battery level show 90%.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
The percentage works pretty simply. I just replaced the stat_sys_battery0-100 png's in system/framework/framework_res. I've been running it for 2 days without any problems. I would recommend fully charging the phone so everything can reset at 100. Let me know if this works, otherwise I'll have to work on a fix. Thanks.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
Still not working for me man after charging to 100%. I applied it correctly and didn't get any errors.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
Ok, I gotta fix this when I get home today. I think I've found the problem. I'll update the OP. So its just not displaying the correct percentage?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
Yes, the mod says 100% but a battery widget I have says 89%. Also I'm not sure if your mod has a charging motion but if it does that dosent appear to be working either. Thanks for sharing your work with us!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
Yeah, another stupid error on my part. That's what I get for rushing! I'll fix it tonight.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ljv:
Not showing the right percentage on mine. I'm running rooted/stock JI6. Thanks for the effort and looking forward to your update.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Flak_Munky:
Mentalex asked me to help him on this morph. The morph is fine and does what it is supposed to. ljv, the reason it is not working on yours is you are running stock JI6, and stock , iirc, does not have the accurate battery fix in place to use this morph. Apply either the accurate battery mod (this one should work - no guarantees - was created by s0niqu3 for stock) or a ROM such as Bionix Final or Fusion, then apply the morph.

Bronk, what ROM are you running? I am assuming at the moment it is the same situation as ljv.

Edit: the charging part of this where it is not fulling up completely during the animation is due to the way the morph was created. I let Mentalex know what was wrong, so hopefully a fix for that will be made soon.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ljv:
Thanks Flak. I just borked my phone. I'm guessing I shouldn't have clockworked the zip file? Restoring it now. Nanroid is your friend
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Flak_Munky:
NP ljv. I thought that version of the accurate battery would work, but I guess not. Oh well. I may make something that will work later, but I would recommend switching over to one of the Bionix Rome anyway.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ljv:
No biggie. It's a learning experience. When I first came here, I was too afraid to do anything. After doing lots of reading, I'm pretty comfortable hacking the phone now. This thing is hard to kill :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
Thanks Flak. I'm gonna fix the issues with this tonight. Thanks for your patience everyone!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
Yes I'm running stock ji6 also, that sucks it won't work, oh well.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Flak_Munky:
You take full responsibility for any damage you may do to your phones, but ljw and Bronk, if you want to replace the framework-res.apk file (which has the files that control the battery images/animations), you can use the attached and do an

.

Or use something like Root Explorer to replace the file.

It *should* work and have an accurate battery, and then you will be able to flash this or other battery morphs and have them work properly.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
If anyone tries this pease let me know if it worked so I can include it in the OP.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ljv:
I restored my phone so all is good.

There are working accurate battery mods out that that I successfully flashed with no problems. I just went back to stock because I didn't like the color green. Was hard to read the percentage. So, maybe I should flash that again, then morph this blue one?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Flak_Munky:
That would work.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mentalex2:
Charge anim now working properly.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ljv:
Two thumbs up. Works great for me. Thanks for the efforts.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Mdot1324:
Thank you so much for this. Ive been looking for this for a while! You're right, the screenshots do not give it justice. This battery looks great! Thanks again!
