How do you get widgets? I know how to make them pop up on the 7 slides home screen, but I have no idea where you download them. There's only so many to choose from.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
If an app has a widget it will say so in its description
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipeench:
Yeah, I have said that a widget thread would be cool... no one liked my idea :(. So many sites dedicated to Android apps..... non for android widgets.

Hi everyone,

Google voice works completely fine for me when the phone is powered up. When I put it in either airplane mode or turn it off all the caller gets is "the call could not be completed at this time". Anyone have any advice on getting google voice working with the phone off?

I realize that this isn't the most appropriate place for this issue, but have gotten no help anywhere else. So I figured this site is the most active in helping solve problems.

I am using the stable CM6 with the stock kernel.

Thanks for the help.

Are you sure that you have Voicemail enabled for GV?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafroehlich2:
I'm sure. As long as the phone is on I get voicemail. Its only when the phone is off the air that I get the errors from other callers.

The Weather wont show my city anymore. After I applied 2 official android updates my city is gone. I could select it before the update. Any tips?

Any good SMS replacement without ads? I tried Handcent and Chompsms but both have ads and no free-ads version.

Suggestions?

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Install Adfree to block adds and you are done.

Personaly I use Handcent. Has a lot conf options.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Skaldinho:
I use handcent too and didnt see any ads.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spence91:
I like Handcent too, I think there's only adverts when yo go into the settings menu?

It would be nice to hear of some alternatives though..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gammexane:
4 or 3mb for a sms program I think is to much. I don't care themes and so on, I just want to download the mms' pictures, videos and the ability of send message to multi recipients...

I think I will develop my own sms program...

call me stupid, but I am developer and I like to support other developers... but.. i don't like ads :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spence91:
Does anyone have the stock SMS .apk or the HTC one? Are they even any good compared to the standard one that comes with the X10 mini?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
how is the stock or HTC one called? is it Mms.apk?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
here you go. careful though this a htc mms.apk
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
sorry. here you go
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gammexane:
Thanks, what version of Android has your HTC?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
This is from 2.1. I have 2.2.1 by AdamG opendesire
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mariosraptor:
Just tell me if it will work? Can you? Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gammexane:
Yes, but I am working right now, I will test it @ home in a couple of hours.

how to install?

I did install this by

Copy to system/app

set permission to 644

but not work,...

( no icon )
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spence91:
Get a 'parse error' when trying to install..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gammexane:
Same... :( Well I will write my own sms program, there will be news in a couple of weeks i hope.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
I fully agre with you. I use Chomp SMS. Its a 5+Mb file consuming about 7-8mb space on installation. Previously I used Handcent which is a bit lower in size- but after upgrade to 2.1 it force closes every time i try to save /add any unknown number (from which an SMS was recd) to my Contacts.

Anyway, will wait for your lightweight SMS/MMS app.

Regards

Partha
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gammexane:
I was started to develop for android devices 2 days ago :P. The application can send and receive SMS, now I am trying to "call" the contact list to multiple recipes... After that I will start with the MMS support. Once I get this I will release the first beta version. :D

I am pretty slow coding in java because I have learned it last week, I am a c/c++ developer and I used to hate java :rolleyes:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
Good news pretty soon. Waiting for your beta release. Meantime I found a lightweight free SMS app (500+kb) in the market. Can have a look if you want. Its called "SMS Composer". The main thing which I liked about it is its Non-threaded conventional type. Messages ordered individually as per date & timewhen they were recd. Its buggy though. Its laggy. Senders' names are not shown in a few SMS from known saved contact numbers. Unknown numbers (from which SMS recd) can't be saved in contact - there is no such option in context menu.
[General Questions and Answers] wesbbohannon:
ok so im workin with a rooted evo (using unrevoked3) running fresh 3.4 rom and iv been messing with launcher pro trying to customize everything and all. i downloaded widget locker to change my unlock screen but i cant seem to get my pattern lock to show up after the 10-15 min of being asleep(in case its stolen or whatever) and i didnt know if there was a way to "slide to answer" or if the incoming call always comes up like it does if it wasn't locked at all. i tried setting it to "hide incoming call" but then i cant see whos calling before i unlock it!! ggrrrrr.........any suggestions?
[Desire General] Mesquire:
HTC Desire/Froyo 2.2

I used to use Ringdroid to create and assign a few custom ringtones to a few contacts, then I discovered I didn't need to use a program to do that (simply create folders on the SD card, much like on my winmo devices) so I uninstalled the app and copy all my winmo ringtones to the SD card, but I have the following problems:

1. I cannot assign ringtones to some contacts - they always revert to "Default" immediately.

2. I can assign to others, but some exhibit this weird behaviour. For example, I have assigned a ringtone A to person A, and when I assign a ringtone B to person B, person A's ringtone got changed to that of person B as well, I have to change person A's back manually (but then person B's remains unchanged).

Anyone knows what's wrong? Thank you.
[Desire General] ferus:
I have a similar problem with ringtones assigned to contacts.

After a few days (or after some particular action which I haven't discovered yet) all my assigned ringtones revert to the default and the default ringtone is changed as well to something completely different.

It's getting really annoying...

Darkstar Beta v0.7.5​

Here is a port/remake of Darkstar for the Samsung Vibrant! It's not complete, so this is a beta build as of now.

For up-to-the-minute updates about the development of this theme, make sure to follow me on twitter (@freekyfrogy)

Along with the system theme, I have made a launcherpro dock and icons :)

Eventually I plan on making an ADW theme as well, but the dock design isn't final yet.

I have tested this on Onyx 4.2 and it works perfectly :) I still don't know how well it plays with the stock JK2 leak, so if anyone wants to test it that would be sweet.

To install this theme just download the .zip file and flash it through clockwork recovery. The launcher .zip shoul be downloaded then unzipped and applied to Launcherpro :)

Credits:

Eliot Stocker & Dan Josiah

-for remaking most of the original Darkstar images in hdpi. These guys are awesome and it would have taken me forever to make this if they hadn't already converted most of the core images first ;)

s0niqu3

-for providing me with a great platform off of which to build this theme. It would have been a lot harder without the work she had already done editing the framework.

Team Whiskey

-For making a great ROM. Obviously without a ROM there can be no theme :P

Changelog:

BETA v0.7.5

-lots of little edits (smoothing out edges, changing icons, etc.)

-changed the settings toggles a bit

-just looks generally a lot cleaner :)

BETA v0.7

FINALLY got the notification text color changed to black :D

BETA v0.6

Changed the quick settings icons and background

BETA v0.5

Initial release
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] winhwah:
Nicely done, looking forward to the final release.

Could you please indicate which clock skin you use there? It looks awesome, thanks.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
I used the cashmere cube theme with 90% transparency :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] sublimnl:
this looks very nice. i assume this is CW flashable?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Tempestrs4:
This looks awesome! One of my favorite themes of all time from the old days. Any chance of making this a metamorph so it can be used on froyo roms in general?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
Yeah, just flash it through clockwork :)

Thanks! I'm glad you like it :D Right now this is only useable with Vibrant froyo ROMs but once CM 6.1 is finished for the vibrant I am definitely going to be working on getting a version released for that :)

I'm not very good with metamorph haha :P
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] 2girls1cup:
Darkstar is a classic I have always loved the work. Just a suggestion, I would refine the launcher icons and make the notification pull down more transparent.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
BETA v0.6 is up, what do you guys think of the change?

Yeah the launcher icons are kinda stand-in's right now until I can a full set done. I'll try your suggestion about the notification background though :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] SBboundbRONCOS:
looks good aside from what you said about the white text color. the black bg on TW roms notification pull down really annoys me so this theme looks like it would be a great addition to the rom
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
Before anyone asks, I just flashed this on top of Onyx 4.2 and it works great :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mightykc:
I love this!!! Keep up the good work!!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] SBboundbRONCOS:
anyone tried axura yet
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] s0niqu3:
Hi,

To change the text color you need to decompile framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk using apktool or apk manager (or something similar) then look in the /res/layout folders for status_bar_xxxx.xml files.

Then basically have fun experimenting with changing anything that says android:textColor="#ffxxxxxx" to whatever you want. Note that its aarrggbb format, so your best bet is to leave the first two characters (the alpha channel) alone, keep them ff, then change the next 6 to change the color.

Hope this helps, cheers, =)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] diaa08:
Yes, works great. Even removes annoying cartoonish pulldown toggles.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
Hey guys, I managed to change the notification color! I'm uploading v0.7 right now :D

EDIT: It's up! I hope you guys enjoy!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iynfynity:
Wow this really looks great.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] sublimnl:
the bottom of the notification pull-down looks jagged in the screenshots. Does it looks like that on the phone as well? Any chance of reverting back to a "bar" type pull-down? It might look a little cleaner...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] christpuncher:
should one disable OCLF before flashing this? amd what if one were to flash the blue segmented battery on top of this? would it cause any conflicts?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] rel500:
Works good on obsidian v2 also. Liking the dark n neon green. Question when u go to settings I can't change the lock screen. I'm wondering if you can include an option for different lock screens? Thanks
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] christpuncher:
nevermind.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] FunGoos:
hi

very nice MOD

works fine with axura 2.0.3

the only problem is when you press wifi button in notification area you can see under part of word "on" and when you switch off "off" word.

and all windows animations are gone.

how can I restore windows animation ?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cashyftw:
Wow man this is really nice, Using Onyx 4.2, is there new animations?

Edit: Could I flash the animations from another thread?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] :
Question can you make this work with mancut r12 please !!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
Yeah, it is a bit jagged. The reason for this is because that image had to be resized, this creating jagged edges. I'm going to go back and smooth it out eventually :)

That's weird, because it works for me. I'll see what I can do :)

If you want, you could also flash this on top of the matte theme to get the lockscreens.

Yeah, I noticed that about the words too. I'll try to figure out what I can do :P

About the animations, Darkstar actually has some custom animations in it as well (thanks 100% to @eliotstocker) so I have it completely replace the animations folder. It should still be possible to flash the other animations through metamorph though if you really like them.

Yeah, there are some custom animations in this theme. See my above comment :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jayzusfk:
Ooh how exciting. This was my favorite theme from the mytouch/cm days.

I could probably help bang out a metamorph once it's ready for a final release.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] dddtc2005:
that's really an awesome theme! Thanks for great works！

Holy cow this theme is AMAZING! I love the black and green so much. Thanks for this.

I'm about to flash this theme...(great work btw). Is there a stock zip we can flash after this if we wanted to revert back to stock?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Sir Incognito:
I just attempted to flash this theme but it just hung up on me. I'm guessing it has something to do with the custom battery mod I have flashed maybe I dunno. I'm running onyx 4.2 with the stock kernal.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] hanbaoquan15:
So the JK2 is kernel and the other file is just a theme correct?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] freekyfrogy:
Are you referring to the two files in the OP? The Darkstar_JK2)BETA_0.7.5.zip is the theme itself, you flash it through clockwork recovery. The other file is simply images to use for Launcherpro.

About other ROMs, I will try my hand at porting this over to Eugene's ROMs, but I can't guarantee it will be immediately :P The work that s0niqu3 did was for bionix roms, and without her XML edits and such it will be difficult to get this working on other ROMs. I will try though, because it's always good to learn new things :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] scrizz:
w00t!!!

hopefully you get this on Eugene's ROMs too!!

this is a very nice them

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mightykc:
After you set a shortcut on the dock it gives you the option for a custom icon. Select custom icon and it brings up the gallery where you scroll to the icon image you want to use.

Just flashed this over AOSPish 1.1 with no hiccups, but it did overwrite my AOSP lockscreen, anyone know how I can get that back?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mgear2:
Hey, this is going to be my first time installing a theme. Do I just install it like I did with my 2.2 rom? I'm pretty sure I used the Obsidian version, but I'm not sure which number version I have. I don't remember which one I downloaded. If it's not 3 (or 2 like someone said in this thread), what will happen? Also, is there a way to tell which version I have? I've recently formatted the main drive on my phone since I couldn't copy files to and from on it.

Also sorry about the bump.

And I've decided to leg it and try installing it through Clockwork Recovery. The phone restarts and stays on "Installing Multi-CSC". I can operate the menu fine, and it reboots into the normal themed OS just fine.

What am I doing wrong?

Nevermind, ignore everything I've previously said, except for the sorry. I got it to work. I remembered that I'm supposed to click the update.zip to get into the recovery, then install it from there. Anyways, fantastic theme, and great work.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SantinoInc:
Hey guys. I was hoping some of you ROM flashing freaks can help me out here. After a month or so of having full root I finally decided to d/l Rom Manager (what an awesome app...major kudos to the dev!) and the first thing I did was try out the famous CM6 rom.

First off let me admit to the fact that I don't think I gave it a fair shot...mb I was scared by the lack of Sense that I have grown so used to, but after a very short while I reverted to my backup of the stock rom. Besides the lack of familiarity with a non-Sense ROM I was also turned off by the lack of 4G and the small things that people on the CM6 thread were complaining about such as notifications for text and emails not showing up on the status bar. I also saw a handful of people complaining about excessive battery drain. Anyway, I stray from my point. I'm sure CM6 is an awesome ROM, I mean thousands of people swear by it, so there must be something to it...just right now I need some Sense.

On that note it seems to me that the most popular Sense rom is Myn's. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this. What I really don't understand is this: What makes Myn's ROM or any of the other Sense rom better than stock? I would really like to hear from MYN users (and other sense rom users) and tell me why you prefer your ROM over stock.

Thanks in advance for any useful feedback!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMagicalSock:
I use Myn's ROM and CM6.1 (the latter right now).

The most cited thing about Myn's ROM that people like is the theming. Myn is also really on it with the updates, and he includes new features with every release.

Just nandroid and flash it. If you like Sense, you can't go wrong. Also, definitely give CM6 another go sometime in the future. It's great.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SantinoInc:
Hey Sock, thanks for the reply. Yeah, I think I def didn't give a CM6 a fair try. I think I just got scared off by the unfamiliar territory. One thing I did notice when I had it running was that my reception wasn't very good. I only had 2 bars in an area that I usually have full or close to full bars. Oddly though, it was working fine and was d/l content from the market at around the same speed as when I was on stock.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxfire05:
CM6 uses a different code for signal reception than sense roms (less bars). Even though it appears different, there are no differences in data speed. Those bars u see are for data strength btw
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMagicalSock:
Yeah, that's something to get used to with AOSP. I like Sense and CM pretty similarly, so I nandroid back and forth pretty often.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Ive been using myns roms for quite a while now, all 3 of his warm 2.2 releases. I highly suggest you give it a try. The theme is silky smooth, all sense widgets work, myn has put his magic touch into it so it runs smoother and snappier than stock, he is ON TOP of updating his Roms, and always adds new features and little touches to it. Plus there are all sorts of options for customizing to your liking. I also get much better battery life than stock. Check it out good sir.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agemo:
While I don't run Myn's (running MIUI), the reason I started flashing custom ROMs was to get rid of the Sprint bloat that the stock ROM had. After each restart I would see a Nascar app and a whole lot of other **** running that I couldn't care less about. Also now I can use setcpu to underclock my phone at times (screen off and etc) to help save my battery as well. Seeing much longer battery life now.
