[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
This might be a stupid question, but did you uninstall the old version before trying mine? Also yes mine does call the phone app instead of contacts, it was the first way I could get it to work. I may try to go back to do contacts later. I will look over the log cat in more detail in a bit.
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
Yes the old one was uninstalled when I tried yours. i just reinstalled it after to get a log of the phone button error. I would really use this launcher if you could get this going. I think others will also, thanks again! :)
[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
Ok, current working theory I tested and was able to duplicate your issue. You have the widgets installed and they are signed differently than the launcher. If one is already installed, then you can't install the other because they are checking for the signitures. If you uninstall the Widgets, the launcher should install... but that defeats the purpose atm.

Looking into a fix. May try repackaging the widgets the same way I did the launcher... not sure yet. I will update when I make some more progress.
[Android Apps and Games] kooltlm:
Has any one tryed 4G or HDMI on the HTC EVO running this?
[Android Apps and Games] hayer:
the widgets install but the actual launcher doesnt its just empty
[Android Apps and Games] khnglh:
any luck in getting the social and email tab working ???

anyone ?

all others works perfectly on a Froyo 2.2 Root system..
[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
Ok, I repackaged the widgets and everything seems to be working from an installation point of view. I was successfully able to install the launcher and the widgets and have them work (with the exception of the current known issues with the email and social widgets). The phone icon launches the phone app. If you want me to change it to the contacts instead, I will release a separate version of the launcher.

I will try to get the email and social widgets working properly in the near future.
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
I tried the new apk and I still get "application not installed" at the end of the install process. I don't know?
[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
Not sure of the order you did things but, uninstall all current dell Widgets and launcher. Then install my launcher and Widgets.
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
OK I uninstalled the old widgets and installed all of the new ones with your tweaked launcher and everything works great! The phone button works! I had previously uninstalled the old launcher only and not the old widgets which would not let the new launcher install. Thanks bro, you are the man! If you get those other widgets working I will definitely be using this full time as I'm sure many others will also. TTYL
[Android Apps and Games] gridironbear:
I have a Vibrant I got the Launcher to install but the Widget wont install and when i extract nothing there is there a specific folder I should place it in. also I'm running Eugene's R10 Rom if that helps.
[Android Apps and Games] Asadullah:
I am trrying to port this to mdpi devices ( I have a sprint hero). So far I was able to change the shared uid just by removing the old meta-inf and resigning it with release keys. I was able to edit some of the widgets with apk manager but am having a hell of a time trying to edit the stage launcher (which has to be done first). I'm gonna try an older version of apk manager to see if that helps but if anyone has any hints let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] astuermer:
Any idea on how to get Facebook and Email working?
[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
Not sure yet on those. I am planning on looking at them to see if I can fix them, but haven't had the time to yet.
[Android Apps and Games] astuermer:
Great ;) Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ericizzy1:
yes, having the email widget is a must for me. thanks for the hard work
[Android Apps and Games] hayer:
this wont install on my htc magic the launcher apk wont show any settings widgets install
[Android Apps and Games] crackedvenom2:
just bumping to get notifications. hopefully social widget can be fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] simoboy:
is installed in Galaxy Tab ?
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
It is the mail client fire the tab!
[Android Apps and Games] J-Rock28:
I tried to install these on my Incredible, I got the launcher to install but the widgets download as a .bin file. What am I supposed to do with that?
[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
Try to download them again. The widgets hould be in a rar file.

I'm on vacation for a couple days, so I will try to look at the Widgets.
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
Bumping this up to see if i can generate any interest. The launcher works great for me and for what I use my phone for. The widgets are perfect and the launcher looks good. The problems I was having was that the mail widget would not show your mail and you could not add an account to it but I tried something different. I installed the launcher only first and started it up. It couldn't find the other Dell widgets which I intentionally did not install. I then installed the other widgets with my file manager with the Dell launcher already installed and running as default. After my widgets finished installing and I hit the home button and bam the mail widget showed up with all my mail in it :D

What I did was simply bypass adding my mail account thru the widget itself and hope it just recognized my mail account with the launcher already installed and it did! The only problem left is that the Facebook widget will not log into Facebook and my logcat gives me an error that says,

"E/Dell-Facebook( 2533): Failed to get a new session with exception: org.json.JSONException: No value for session_key"

Just wondering if I can get any help with this? This launcher looks good and is very functional. All of 9 of my most recent apps are on my "Home" widget so all I do is click on the recent app I want to use and its launched with one action! These are the apps I use most anyways so I don't need to go to an app drawer much or long press my home key to get a recent app. Quick and easy!

Here are some screenshots off my phone with this nice launcher!
[Android Apps and Games] astuermer:
Hmm... tried the same here.

No chance to show up any mails in the widget :(
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
Are you using a 2.1 rom? Your sig says Acer on 2.1? If you are then it won't work.

[Android Apps and Games] DANNYDOS:

[Android Apps and Games] Kashban:
Tried it on the Archos 101 internet tablet... looks nice, dpi are the same as on the streak (160dpi), but it's not as smooth as the Launcher Pro.
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
Look back a few pages there is another apk attached by Flak_Munky that works on your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] junxracr:
Force close on trying music widget, cannot sign in facebook. Everything else works. Pretty good launcher on vibrant. I'll try to dial it in some more.
[Android Apps and Games] Flak_Munky:
Sorry to anyone who was waiting on me for the social widget. I was hoping to have time to look at it last month, but I never got to it. Work picked up a lot and I haven't had a chance to do much of anything.

No guarantees, but maybe sometime soon I can try again to take a look at it.
[Android Apps and Games] Neffstarr:
thanks ,,,will try it on my vibrant running Nero v2 Rom
[Android Apps and Games] smoothone:
Awesome thanks. The facebook sign in is in the social widget is the issue most of us are having right now.
[Android Apps and Games] turtleman13:
I have this workin on my vibrant with no issues except the phone
[Android Apps and Games] turtleman13:
you will have to install using root explorer or maybe you got a bad download
[Android Apps and Games] Erichhart:
Any updates. This launcher is my hopes and dreams :)
[Android Apps and Games] ryanpm40:
Droid Incredible running miui. It works, everything is beautiful, however the widgets not so much. The music widget causes a force closed when tapped, and the e-mail widget doesn't work. Anybody know a fix?
[Android Apps and Games] lingols:
vertical scroll

anyway vertical scrolling can be put in? thats the only thing i miss from any launcher is the ability to scroll veritically cuz its just faster than sideways.
[Android Apps and Games] rockypr:
The Facebook issue hasn't been resolved?

[Android Apps and Games] Ihaveanepic:
Unfortunately no, no one wants to mess with this. Don't know why not. I would if I new how.

[Android Apps and Games] Flix123:
It works on the Archos 70, but it isn't very smooth...

But how is the wallpaper called, that you can see in the first post? Could someone please give me the wallpaper?

And an other question: Is there an other launcher that looks identically? I need a good launcher for my Archos.
[Android Apps and Games] jaya7:
i've installed on galaxy s and seems to be working fine. but i cant get the weather on Home widget to get updated. On Accuweather, my location is already set up. But widget isnt updating.

I found this...

http://www.streaksmart.com/2011/03/...oid-222-new-version-of-stage-ui-included.html

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chillaxed:
ever since i flashed 2.1 world, i text fine, but when a message comes in as i send one or if i send a message while one is already sending, it will say it failed, without even queuing them, so i have to manually resend. its VERY annoying.

help? is there an updated conversations.apk or something?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donny101:
I'm having the same problem too, and its very annoying when you have multiple conversations going on... :(
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saltorio:
Of the 100 or so messages I've sent since first flashing to 2.1, I've had 2 messages do this to me (both shortly after I originally rooted last Monday). I was using Handcent at the time.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sspicer:
had the same problem. was also using handcent..so im not sure if it handcent or the new firmware
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chillaxed:
Is handecent the stock messaging app that came with the 2.1 rom?

Also when texts come in most of the time I have to scroll down to see the messages I received
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toZeMTL:
Hi, I had the same problem a few times but Im not using handcent. Rooted x10a on 2.1 world
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saltorio:
No. Handcent is a popular third party messaging app.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donny101:
I have this problem with the stock messaging app, could it be connected to the way i rooted my x10?

I have the same issue on 2.1 world. It also happens when I try to send the same message to multiple people. Comes up with a failed notification for every recipent. Sometime it says failed and the recipient has actually received it. Happened before and after rooting. Hopefully there's a fix coming from a dev...
[Android Apps and Games] Memorion:
Me and some friends mostly use twitters "direct message" function to send SMS-like short messages.

Now I had an idea if it's possible to write an app which allows you to write direct messages through a shortcut in the contacts app.

Just like I open the contact app, select the contact who should get my message, tap on "Send DM" (or something like this" and a little window opens in which I can write my message.

I don't know anything about writing apps myself so I just want to know if it's possible, of course if someone writes this app there have to be some other features, like notifications and display the characters count.
[Android Apps and Games] Memorion:
/push

I'm sorry for posting again without responses, but I think this idea is too good to be not noticed.

The good things about this app:

-messaging about data connection, no sms costs

-messaging to everyone who has twitter and follows you

-no need that your chat partner has got this app, cause it works trough all twitter clients

-no need to sign up for another service, which only one half of your friends use

-comfortable direct messaging through a nice UI

The bad:

-only 140 characters

-no pictures, files or anything like this due to twitter limitations

I hope now someone will notice this thread :)
[Android Apps and Games] Feodora:
I think it already exists and is available for free in the market. The name of the app is AndroChat.
[Android Apps and Games] Memorion:
Oh, you're right and I thouht this would be a great new idea..

Androchat works, but the UI is not very comfortable, are there any alternatives?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mirec17:
Hi people i have similar problem with Energy 13.May 2010 WWE Rom (OS 5.2.23569). I just sometimes does not volume control in WMP at all in the actual system volume control is, in turn, sometimes not, sometimes the phone is absolutely no sound (only heard a slight noise) and sometimes the volume is off or not. The problem is that I have had enough of mobile applications by using a hard reset and install additional software, I really do not. I would like therefore to ask if anyone knows how except hard reset to solve it. Alternatively, the software would be something like this could cause. Until now I had no such problem. Thank you for your advice.

Sorry for bad english. Google translate :-)

Hello,

I like the AuraxTsense them a lot but love the stock lock screen.

I have been trying to use this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=686567&highlight=lock but ended with endless loop bootscreen.

Also tried botlock but ended with two lock screens one after another.

Anyone have an idea how to do it ?

Thanks,

Nir
[Desire Themes and Apps] EleCtrOx666:
Uninstall "HTCLockscreen.apk" With an app like "SystemApp Remover".(didn't find any free alternative...) PM me if you want a link...

I think(quite sure) S-OFF is required.
[Desire Themes and Apps] volapyk:
If I understand you correctly, you want to use the "stock Android lockscreen" with AuraxTsense? You can use "Widget Locker" from the Market for that.
[Desire Themes and Apps] vokkE:
Yeah, Widget Locker is the way to go if you don't have S-OFF, OR: as EleCtrOx666 said, delete the HtcLockScreen.apk and reboot your phone.
[Desire Themes and Apps] nir78:
My phone is S-OFF.

I don't feel like buying specific software for something that I am not sure working.

Does anybody have an idea how to do it\ test it without buying anything ?

Nir
[Desire Themes and Apps] -WP7User-:
Just unzip the .zip file of AuraxTSense, go to system/app and delete or rename HtcLockScreen.apk to HtcLockScreen.bak, for example and flash the Rom.
[Desire Themes and Apps] celtiCa:
But keep in mind that you cant turn off the alarm from the lockscreen any longer as long as you use the regular alarm.

I'm running MDeejays' version of android on my HD2 for some time now, Running great. I cannot however get a GPS FIX on the damn thing. Tried everything. Also having the same problem running matt-c's version of android on another HD2 of mine.

Can somebody please help ?!

Try this.. Go to the Maps App.. Make sure your Gps is turned on.. Go out side and try to let the Gps find you..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] sukru:
The same situation here. I usually get a fix by doing the following:

* Making sure it gets a fix in the WM before switching to Andorid

* And running the Google Navigation app's map component to get a fix.

Then any other program will see the GPS signal in a few seconds.

Go outside and let it search for a couple of minutes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
Hey guys. I was messing with some kernels, and I had Decad3nce's kernel source on my computer. I decided to cook up a boot.img that had ReiserFS, JFS, and XFS support included in it (I think I remember someone asking for ReiserFS support awhile back). So, here it is. Do what you want with it, but give Decad3nce the credit for making the kernel in the first place :D Oh, and I set the max CPU speed to 691MHz.

Note: It's the same as Uncapped Kernel in the sense that it will only work with ROM's that support Uncapped Kernel. Also, this is the raw boot.img, so it is not flashable. Do what you want with it... I just felt like putting this out in the wild :D

P.S. Don't forget to rename it to boot.img before you use it!!!

Download: http://www.4shared.com/file/GNV8_TTz/Uncappedxtended.html

EDIT: It is the CFS version as well, not the BFS version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
Sounds cool... What exactly does this do? Sorry, I'm not familiar with ReiserFS, JFS, or XFS.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
It's the same kernel as Decad3nce's CFS 691MHz kernel, except it has support the the ReiserFS, JFS, and XFS filesystems. It just gives you more options pretty much.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
I want to try this out. Can I apply this without a computer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
Nope, sorry. It needs to be either cooked into a ROM or flashed through ADB.
[Omnia 7 General] SivEd:
Hi there, mine Omnias coming Tuesday. I was wondering if it was possible to put Swype on these Windows Phone 7 devices. I hope so because I can't imagine living without it now! Has anyone tried to put it on?

Pete
[Omnia 7 General] wwfc:
Doubt it, but hey the stock keyboard is awesome anyway so no need :)
[Omnia 7 General] SivEd:
Yes, it doesn't work, I am sure someone will come up with it (or something like it) soon, The app store seems to have grown 10 fold in the last few days, stuff arriving all the time!

wwfc, Indeed the in-built keyboard is good, but IMO Swype is the next gen input method and with very little practice I can get close to normal typing speed with it. I miss it!

There are two or three variations of it out there and I have checked that at least one of them (SlideIT) is working on a WP7 version.

Pete
[Omnia 7 General] at45:
I'd like T9 for text messages. So much easier to hit a smaller number of bigger keys quickly.
[Omnia 7 General] b_u_d:
Where can you get SlideIT? I can't see it on Marketplace...
[Omnia 7 General] SivEd:
You can't yet I am afraid, the author said he is working on a Windows Phone 7 version... No sign yet and the comments about how long other platforms have been waiting for updates is discouraging. Could be a while yet.

There is also ShapeWriter, but I don't know if they are doing a wp7 version.

I understand that you might prefer T9, so many people can do it with their eyes closed (and walking or on a bus, for sure). The standard keyboard tries to predict what you are trying to type, but it gets it wrong too often for me and the sheer hassle of having to concentrate on pointing exactly at the key you want and then missing and having to hit backspace - and missing that! Is a PITA.

Swype lets you be inaccurate and that, combined with the one "press" per WORD is how you can be so fast. Plus it's correction techniques are much faster than the standard keyboards.

I am sure there must be a "hook" in for other input methods.

Now I have SatNav, it's my biggest miss on WP7. That and the lack of hackability... And no iPlayer... And no copy and paste... And no multitasking... No Google maps (streetview)... Hmmm, can't wait for this Jan update!

Heppy Xmas,

Pete
