[Epic 4G General] dwallersv:
I have the overpriced desktop dock accessory, and contrary to some others here, I really like it. This thread is not for arguing that point, please -- there are already several others where you can't vent your hatred of this accessory :D

Like others, I find the Samsung docking app buggy, crappy, and, after seeing the screen burn-in from some others, I got rid of it. Only tried it briefly anyway.

So, what to do?

Well, if you have tasker and the clock app from the Syndicate ROM (is that the stock clock app? I never tried it before Syndicate, so I have no idea), you come real close to achieving the same result -- i.e., have the app start when you dock, quit when you undock.

Two things I like most about the clock app vs. the Sammy dock app: It shows the local weather, and this can be set up to work off of GPS (if you want -- optional) so it's always local no matter where you are, and most important, it has a nice dim green time/date display after the device sleep times out that jumps around on a black background so there's no possibility of screen burn-in.

Now the one downside: Tasker doesn't seem to capture dock/undock events from Eclair on the Epic. These events are obviously there, somewhere, as the Samsung app can detect it.

So, a alternative must be used to detect the docking. I chose to use the AC Power state, as this is as close to narrowing down a state that is always "on" when docked.

I tried playing with adding some orientation conditions, but it turns out that when tilted back in the dock, it's neither "on left side" or "facing up" according to the sensor interpretation.

Anyway, this works very nicely. If anyone can come up with an even better context for tasker to further narrow the trigger to just docking, it would be much appreciated!

Of course, the ultimate solution is for tasker to correctely detect docking state on the Epic, for which I am going to write the dev.

[HD7 General] LuRock:
I went to check out the Samsung Focus, man! samsung sure is coming strong. It has way more options for the camera than the hd7, like contrast, brightness, micro, quality, and more.. I hope we get updates for our cameras. I recently did a picture test with the hd2 vs. the hd7. Hd2 pics are way more clear and much more detailed. Hope an update can give the HD7 the same quality. Or of course wait for the custom roms to roll out.. :D
[HD7 General] msanda_77:
i pray htc updates the camera. the pink issues to lack of settings just shows us that htc spent almost zero time with wp7. the lg and samsung phones have better picture stability and fewer camera woes. i just stopped using the hd7 camera, the pink issues and u having to stand perfectly still to take a picture just pissed me off. so i am with u waiting for that update if htc ever releases one. somehow i think samsung and lg are more serious about wp7 than htc is.
[HD7 General] rajshank:
Video and photo

I wonder wether its the actual camera or software thats causing poor video and camera quality. I hate the autofocus it makes the video/photo blurry.

I hope they bring an update firmware where you can manually choose if you want autofocus or not. Also when taking a photo of someone while they are moving the picture comes all funny, the camera frame rate and response is to slow. If they can improve the camera through update this phone will be a one of the top phone in the market I think?....
[HD7 General] LuRock:
I believe they could make the camera better cause I know when I first had my HD2 the camera had its issues and after I had changed the rom on it with the camera updates, wow the quality was much better. So yes I agree once this camera gets fixed, definitely the hd7 will be up there.

Also about the comparison with the Focus, yes the focus has the vibrant colors but I would nt trade it for my HD7. And why would I need to see my screen from an angle anyways?? :)

Hello,

is it possible to replace LCD screen in Wildfire with screen from Legend or Hero?

They all are 3.2 inches but they have bigger resolution. Thanks
[Wildfire General] extpumajl:
You can change your Resolution with LCD Dastiny Changer(in market for ~0,90$)

3.2 inches, but different aspect ratios:

Wildfire:

320x240 pixels, 1.333 aspect ratio (4/3)

Hero:

480x320 1.500 aspect ratio

Plus different digitizers rezulting in different drivers, and the fact that wildfire`s buttons are on the same glass plane with the digitizer so short answer: no.

Long answer: nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

It`s impossible.

[Galaxy Tab General] ConceptVBS:
I thought you had to hack it.
[Galaxy Tab General] Jitko:
Ok... Because in the test the can record with 720p. I have the newest firmware on my Tab. When i take a foto i can change the resolution but not in video mode. Anyone have an idea?
[Galaxy Tab General] mjduke:
Isn't '720' just 720x480? I don't believe I've read anywhere that it can shoot 1024x720p video like its galaxy brethren.
[Galaxy Tab General] murphycr:
No. 720p is 1280×720. 480p, 720p, and 1080p always refer to the lowest of the width and height.
[Galaxy Tab General] mjduke:
I realize that, I'm just saying the tab doesn't shoot it, and the only 720 in the specs is the 720x480.

It's a bit of a bummer, but wasn't a deal breaker for me.

I use Winamp. In the options for Winamp, there is a "lockscreen" option so that when you come out of standby, the winamp player controls will pop up. This way you don't have to unlock the rest of your phone before changing songs/etc.

Also, with winamp, you can use volume buttons while screen is off.

[Captivate General] tonyfiore75:
Hi,

I was just wondering if there's a general consensus on whether having a Battery Meter/Saver really does much to save battery life or if it actually depletes a phone's battery more than anything else because it's always running in the background?

I'm not talking about something that just tells you how much power you have left. I' more referring to things like a Juice Defender or similar products.

What do you all think? I think most things that can save your battery are easily monitored on your own (like auto-updates, screen brightness, etc).

Whats the big deal about CM6?I found Syndicate barebone to be almost just as light and fast as CM6,with few more tweaks Syndicate can be next CM6,but CM6 is nice and Noobnl will definitely be missed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gene_Bailey:
well I guess the main differences between the ACS and the CM Team are that the CyanogenMod team is just better! :p

I jest I jest. I have used both CM6 on other phones and Syndicate on my Epic and I appreciate the work any dev does. Especially considering how barebones the Epic forums will soon be if things keep going the way they have.

However, the main differences with CM6 and Syndicate have less to do with tweaks and more to do with source. CM is built from the ground up off of pure old android. Off of the original sdk from Google. Syndicate is more or less based off of the latest and greatest Samsung firmware. CM6 isn't just customized to be light (although its always been a huge plus) it also comes with things that just aren't possible through any other ROMs. Touch to focus inside the camcorder for one, or swiping away notifications ala webOS style. Also building in a modified version of the way Sammy did the power widgets in the notification shade from SCRATCH. The menus are much more functional in CM than anywhere else.

The only way to really see why people get so excited here whenever the words "CM6" and "Epic4G" are mentioned in the same sentence is to try it out on a supported device yourself. Than you will see that CM6 is established. They have long been around. They don't just modify ROM's, they create. They make the product that I would love to see come stock from Google. CM6 = One of the best experiences you will ever have running android on your phone. Period.

That is all.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KL4V1CL3:
Exciting! Can't wait to test it out.

If it's anything like the current alpha, it's sure to be a winner.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lviv73:
I had CM6 on MTS3g for about 2 months and loved it,CM6 is pure android and is probably the best rom I used but what im sayin is tha Syndicate is pretty damn close to CM6 in terms of responsiveness and speed,but CM6 got extra settings.So if its compiled from scratch what benefits it has over say Syndicate rom besides having more samsung and sprint sht removed?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tamvegas:
Thanks for that info.

This Epic is my first Android phone, however coming from WebOS and palm for many years, the mention of swiping and true mods to behavior is exciting!

So, count me in as looking forward to trying out CM6 with DK17. And thanks to noobnl for finishing up whatever he was working on with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gene_Bailey:
This is exactly what I'm talking about. I've had about 12 different phones in the last three years or so including the epic. And I have to say one of the most exciting in terms of modding core behaviors was the palm pre. webOS was an OS that almost anyone could gain dev access to and tinker with. Android is (in my opinion) more powerful, and because of that it takes more know-how to mod it, which is why devs like BTThomas22x and all of the ACS and Noobnl and many many others on here deserve a lot more respect than they are given.

But, again, personally, I have yet to really see anyone take android and mold it the way the CyanogenMod Team has. I bought the epic on day one, mainly for the screen and the hummingbird.. but I almost chose the EVO at the last minute because it already had Cyanogen on it. The wait is long.. but the results will be worth it!
[Epic 4G Android Development] lviv73:
I wish those dumb mf's that make webos would just make large screen phone,webos is really atractive but small screen keeps people from buying it,how those corporate people keep their jobs is beyond me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gene_Bailey:
LMAOOO I totally agree! Then again, thats part of why palm sunk and was bought up by HP. The hardware didn't attract enough customers, so dev's didn't really support it, so app's not enough apps got made, so even more people stayed away from it. pretty soon a lot of devs left it too. Its a sad thing when an OS launches with only 14 apps. and its even sadder when 3 months later nothing has changed.

And all of this is totally skipping over the fact that Palm chose to launch on a carrier that didn't have the service it needed and didnt get the advertising to survive.

Ah, well. We're getting off topic tho lol Android for the win!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rquinn19:
Lol. I agree. People always laugh when I tell them the Pre was on of my favorite phones. All it needs is better hardware, then more people would buy then the developers would develop.
