[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fchipm:
Get rid of your task killer immediately - it does more harm than good. Quit worrying about apps popping up when you don't use them.

If you want to uninstall apps you don't use that are "system" apps get Root Explorer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
Yeah - if you want a good app killer, get System Monitor from the Android Market...its only a few bucks and it gives you a lot more insight as to what is being used and what is not. I had Task Killer, but it stopped working when the OTA Froyo update was launched - which sent me searching a Froyo compatable Task Killer...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost_man10002:
Task Killers are not needed on a andriod device it only restart the app thus causing problems and battery drainage in the long run...Most experienced users can tell you that they will do more harm to your system then good...system panel is a good app for figuring out if you have a rogue app taking up all your cpu and not letting your phone sleep...good luck happy flashing
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoCatharsis:
Again, I appreciate all the advice here, but I don't believe anyone has addressed the issue at hand:

What are some good options for a light-weight ROM that allows usage of my 4G capability?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mamboking:
I will really appreciate it if anyone could give me a link to download or any type of solution to root without using my laptop since its been down for the last week.I have the frg83D.tried "universalaandroot""z4root""superoneclick" so far unsuccessful. Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P30TiP:
Why not flash Geo's FRG83D that is rooted and completly stock?

[Hero CDMA General] Deltatristar500:
Hi, Im getting my TP2 replaced with a Sprint HTC Hero and would like to know if the Calandar agenda widget comes stock with the Hero. Like in this video

YouTube - HTC Hero running Android 2.1 Sense UI

Its on the video at 1:54sec

Once I get my phone, I will get the 2.1 update from the HTC site.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA General] westicle:
My advice is to skip the hero... Its already over a year old.
[Hero CDMA General] Deltatristar500:
Its a replacemet for my TP2 covered by insurance
[Hero CDMA General] dirkyd3rk:
i agree soon as you get your hero you should SELL it immediately and take that cash and put it with more money to get an evo or epic or you will be sorry the hero is probably not better than a tp2 as i dont use winmo but trust me getting a hero is like going back in time 3 years even though its only a year old. lol i dont want to sound so angry im just trying to make sure you understand me.

Thanks guys, but lets stick to what the question is asking.
[Hero CDMA General] xjayman:
I cant say it does for certain because im rooted using cm6 but id assume its part of htc sense.The hero is a great phone for the price and fits my needs just fine. Still havent figured out what all the *****ing is about.
[Hero CDMA General] ASimmons:
yes it does come with the calendar widget along with alot of other sense ui widgets.
[Hero CDMA General] dirkyd3rk:
yeah its a budget phone indeed, really wasnt *****ing just offering advice if he had an OPTION to not get the hero, if he doesnt have an option thats cool too. Most of what i said are fact anyways. And @delta you answered your own question by watching the video all sense roms have a calender widget. Last @xjayman lets get a few more post under your belt before you can make the call that someone is *****ING.
[Hero CDMA General] Deltatristar500:
Well, if I could afford an Evo I would, but I guess I have to settle for the Hero for the time being, its android and Im done with windows.
[Hero CDMA General] user7618:
Too much *****ing and moaning going on on here. Do I have enough posts to qualify? :)

Anyway, the Hero is a fine phone, in fact, I would say that it is a sterling example of how the community can not only extend the life of a device, but make it better in the process.

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Froyo-on-Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA General] xjayman:
thank you !thats my point. I was refering to everyone who complains about this phone not just on this post. Sorry if you thought I was singling you out & ill work on that post count.
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
Yes, that widget is included :)
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] peestandingup:
Picked this up at Wally World (Wal-Mart) for $15 & it fits the Tab perfectly, even if you're using an additional skin/case on your Tab (such as I am).
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] daniel.weck:
Good to know. Thanks for sharing !

I'll be getting something similar soon.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] ftgg99:
surely its better to just get a book type case?

you get all-over protection and a stand for the same price as both the accessories youve purchased... and theres no need for silly screen protectors!
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] peestandingup:
Different strokes for different folks. I personally don't like those book type cases (esp since this isn't an eReader). They're bulky, hard & meant to stay on all the time. I just need something to sock the Tab in when I go out to get coffee & stuff.

I like the form factor so I don't wanna mess with it. If I wanna book I'll buy a book. :D Besides, all the decent ones I've seen are at least $40-$50. I paid less than $20 for a quality TPU case & the sleeve.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] daniel.weck:
Couldn't agree more. And in addition to the added bulk of a "proper" leather case, there's the issue of orientation: personally I very often rotate my Tab in all 4 directions, depending on whether there are connectors attached (ear bugs, charger), etc.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] blackheart2925:
For OP - thanks for the info, the jumper looks nice...planning to order one soon. :-)

Just wanted to check, do you have some kind of silicone case also on the tab? In the first pic I can see some kind of hard plastic/silicone rim around the tab...
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] peestandingup:
Yes, its a TPU case. I did a separate thread for it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849291
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] blackheart2925:
Cool...I like the combo!:-))) nice to know the jumper sleeve goes ?ith the TPU sleeve
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] peestandingup:
Yeah, I kinda lucked out that they went together so well. Its a snug fit with or without the TPU case, which is exactly what I wanted. It doesn't move at all when its in there.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] realityiswhere:
I asked this thread on reddit, didn't have much luck, thought maybe someone here would know.

I've got a 2.1 GT-i9000m (Vibrant) and a 2.2 Tab, both under Bell.

The GT-i9000m has black menus with white text, the Tab has white menus with black text, is there any setting I can change without root, or flashing, to change this?

This is really the only issue I've got with my tab.

Thanks for reading.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] alias_neo:
What are you saying? That you want black menus with white text on your tab?

As far as I'm aware you can't change that without rooting, it's part of the frameworks.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] GANJDROID:
As alias said, its not possible without rooting, unless Samsung change it themselves and push an update for it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
I have tried to flash multiple different kernels now and still am having the same problem. When I flash them it says that it was installed and everything, but when I go and reboot the phone the HTC white screen and logo with just keep rebooting and reappearing and the phone just won't boot up. I've flashed both of Pershoot's roms and they both have not worked. I know it's not the roms themselves so it must be something on my end. I'm running stock out of the box rom and permarooted with visionary. Dieing to overclock and get this fixed up...any thoughts? :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
Not all kernals are flashable have you tried the baconbits?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
Well I flashed the ones that are flashable through recovery and they all give me the same problem with not being able to boot up. I saw bacon bits on rom manager but it was 0.1. What does that overclock me to?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkey72:
Do you have the 'set on boot' option checked in setcpu? If so,this could be your issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
Ohhhh ya I do. So that could be my issue I guess? Why would that be an issue though? Just for future reference :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
Some are kernals that have to be installed using android sdk
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
Noob question but...android sdk? I probably know what it is but am not really familiar with the term :P
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkey72:
I don't know the technical reasons,i just know that unless otherwise stated do not use the set on boot option.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
Its also called adb its a computer porgram that let you install certain things on ur phone that can't be flashed
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
And yes baconbits does have a 1.4. Overclock (not sure on the exact number)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
Alright well then I'll give it a try with set on boot checked off and i'll post after to say if it worked or not. I've flashed multiple ones so I guess that would explain why they are all giving the same outcome. Post in a bit! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
Oh ok ya adb I know alright. And well I'm going to try shuting setup on boot on setcpu and if that doesn't work well then what's the best way to do it with adb? Also baconbits on CW is only on version 0.1. Should I do that one or is it possible to download 0.3 and put it on the root of my sd and flash it?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
I'm using .3 on my stock rom, and yes straight onto the sdcard
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
well vision bacon 0.3 worked and it overclocked me to 1.47. before i flashed it i unchecked "set on boot" in setcpu and am wondering if that helped also. I'm flashing back to complete stock now and then am going to try and flash pershoots 1.51 kernel and see if it works also with "set on boot" in setcpu also off and see if that was what was the problem
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
well unfortunately it still is happening even with "set on boot" checked off. I have no clue what could still be causing this. And what is actually even more confusing is that bacon bits works and I am now overclocked to 1.49 no problem. That's perfectly fine for me, but am just confused about why I can't just flash one itself and worried that when I want to one day when even more of them come out I won't be able to...wth :(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
Have you tried the flashable zip on page 28 of the 1.8ghz turbo thread? That's what I'm using
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
well idk if it was that one that I've tried but I have tried one of the 1.8ghz ones and it also happens with that. I don't understand how baconbits 0.3 works but any others won't? I guess i'll try the 1.8ghz one and see what happens. Idk if i'll get to it today or tomorrow but i'll post if it works or not. I'll also try pershoots off RM and see what happens.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickb1989:
still hasn't worked. the only way I can overclock my phone as of right now is doing it through vision baconbits 0.3. but honestly when I flashed that I was getting a bunch of force closing way way to often and as of right now I don't have anything on my g2 other then being permarooted. I'm not sure but am I supposed to mess with other stuff like voltages or something else to get the overclock to work before I flash them or after or something? I'm def between a rock and a hard shell...lol
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadyx513:
Here are the step by step instructions i use each time

ok View attachment 451618

place on the root of sdcard in no folder

using phone goto rom manager press reboot into recovery.(are you sure) press yes

when phone boots up.

-press volume down till you reach "install zip from sdcard"

-press trackpad to select it

-select "choose zip from sdcard"

-select "1.8ghz_overclock.zip

-wait

-select reboot system now

-open setcpu change maz MHz to desired overclock
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZombieUsr:
I just have a general question question about the kernels from CW. If I did a nand from stock, and I flash one of these lovely kernels...could I use the nand re-install and get the original kernel if perchance something gets borked down the road? My thoughts are yes, but figured I'd ask. Thanks

What's with making all these android phones with huge screens? The aria fits nicely in my pocket albeit the screen would be nicer at 3.5 or 3.7in.

[Epic 4G Android Development] dwallersv:
I'm guessing this is harder than it seems to a digitial signal processing, software engineering type like me, and that's why it hasn't been done.

Some will say, "why don't you take it on and contribute?" I very well may, when I can carve out the time to learn what I need to know. Unfortunately, that's not on the horizon atm.

So, what's the request? We all know that the sound subsystem is very primitive. Quiet source media, particularly AC3-encoded sound from video media, can be annoyingly quiet even over headphones at full volume.

The device would benefit immensely with just two simple enhancements: A pre-amp, and a balance control. In the digital domain, these two filters are trivial to implement. So, if there is a chained filter architecture to the sound system, similar to that in Windows, this should be dead-simple to implement. There's plenty of public domain GPL code out there already to leverage.

Even without a filter architecture, still implementing something like this shouldn't be too hard. I'm thinking of a settings interface where sliders control pre-amp boost and balance.

Now, even better would be to add level normalization (an AGC). Even better than that would be an equalizer. All of this, again, can be leveraged from public-domain code.

The ultimate would be a port of SRS/WOW functionality. This is probably a pipe-dream. But I thought I'd mention it. This is not open-source, public domain code, so I have no idea how it might be done, other than finding a way to wrap the WM driver and making to work in Linux (do-able, but not easy).
[Epic 4G Android Development] mkasick:
Like this?

Doesn't appear to have a balance control from the screen shots, although ALSA does do that.

In general much of what you ask for can be done with plugins for ALSA. It's a matter of exposing it with a simple-to-use interface.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XGX5309:
I couldn't get MixGet to work with 2.2. But maybe I was doing something wrong... I'll try some things..
[Epic 4G Android Development] dwallersv:
Thanks so much for this pointer. I'd searched Market a month ago when I first got my Epic looking for something like this and couldn't find it.

This handles 90% of the problem. Balance and an EQ would take care of the rest.

I found the ALSA prject Wiki... I'll take a look at this and see if maybe I can hack up an interface to make some of these more advanced features work. Don't hold your breath, gang -- I'm severely limited in time right now, but the holiday season is upon us, and I'll have some time to screw around...
[Epic 4G Android Development] dwallersv:
I spoke too soon.

Unfortunately, MixGet isn't a general audio system solution, but apparently needs to be explicitly implemented to support specific apps. It boosts audio nicely for the music player, but had no effect at all for yxplayer (a streaming video player) -- and that's where I really need it!

However, boosting audio independent of the target app itself (i.e. no modification to the app is necessary -- it's unaware of what's been done to crank up the volume) is possible, so it's certainly possible to do this on a system-wide basis.

I saw some references to voodoo-audio working on some things like this. Anyone know what's going on there? I tried to find some stuff with a quick internet search, and could only find an SVN source management page.
[General Questions and Answers] SAbboushi:
I use Acronis to restore my system partition from time to time (running Vista Ultimate 64).

I have an HTC TP2 windows mobile device. I flash the ROM from time to time.

MWDC is used to keep the devices in sync

Restoring a prior system partition to my desktop or flashing the ROM of my phone seems to affect the sync-related-data that WMDC utilizes to determine what needs to be synced.

Can anyone explain to me what sync-related-data WMDC uses and where this data is stored on my desktop and on my phone. My objective is to back this data up each time before I restore my system partition and before I flash my phone's ROM. Then I can restore this sync-related-data before I do the next sync so that WMDC doesn't "hiccup"

I hope someone understand my question and can help me to accomplish this.

NOTE: Exchange is NOT involved in my situation.

With Regards-

Sam

So, you'll have to bear with me because I've only had about 30 minutes worth of exposure with adb and all that goes along with it, but I'm having some trouble with a simple command. I'm trying to change the directory to /sbin/ but the command isn't working. It's keeps telling me "permission denied" Any ideas?

shell game

I believe with the use of adb shell you don't have to enter the adb push/pull whatever commands. Once you are in the shell, you are in the OS itself.

To quote the Talking Heads "Well, how did I get here?" :p

Once you type adb shell, you type su

Once su (superuser is what that stands for) is typed, the prompt should change from a $ to a #.

From that point, you are in the OS as the superuser, and can issue the commands w/out the adb prefix.

Picked this up online at HandheldItems for $6 (after using coupon code: galaxytab20 for 20% off). It fits the Tab very snugly, has all the ports/controls exposed & has a sorta smooth matte finish instead of a glossy/rubbery finish like other TPU cases.

It's good quality for generic & you can't beat the price for what you get. Much better option IMO than blowing $40 on the Belkin Grip Vue that Best Buy is selling (which covers up the SD & SIM slots!).

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] peestandingup:
Cool. yeah, they had that one too but I was afraid that since I had the all black Tab that the clear TPU case would be more like "frosted" & make the black back look all faded & kinda off color.

Is the clear one really clear, or is it frosted a bit??
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] antz88c:
It's frosted, if you want clear you might want to consider brando clear hard shell

Wanted to order but changed my mind...shipping cost for an US$8 case is US$25!!! That made me think twice...will see if I can pick up something cheaper locally...:-(

Keep in mind its generic so you can pick it up on eBay too for probably free shipping. It'll most likely ship from somewhere in Asia though & take longer.
