[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonnieLasVegas:
WOW! So old school you'd suggest emailing a vid rather than mms it! Sounds like my grandparents, lol. But seriously most people in the 21st century would like to have this option. It's a glaring problem for this OS.

I'm currently out of state for work, my kids wanted to send me a vid of them being funny. They have no computer with them & are staying with my parents, who have no internet or computer, lol. Guess what? They couldn't send it via mms! They & I were dissappointed that I couldn't see this video of my daughters.

That is when it can be a GLARING problem for people who enjoy this convenience. I love WP7, but it's obvious they were in a rush to get this OS out to save some jobs & keep investors happy. This is an embarassing hole left in this OS, that needs fixed ASAP.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digger1985:
Not sure what the big deal is. When the iPhone first came out it didn't even have mms picture messaging while every phone on the market had it and no one made a fuss about it. I've never sent anyone video messages and I don't know anyone who did either.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
Stop living in the past, the iPhone came out four years ago. Not being able to share videos from your phone, today, is ridiculous. While I haven't MMSed videos myself I have often shared them on YouTube or via email - this isn't even available on WP7. Also, just because you don't use it doesn't mean noone else does.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digger1985:
I'm sorry but when the iPhone came out EVERY OTHER phone on the market could do MMS, however we didn't hear people say that it was ridiculous that the iPhone couldn't do MMS when everyone else could.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrTablet:
Aha, You could try sending a video from WP7. If you manage that you're good!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
Actually, everyone bar the Apple fanbois thought it was ridiculous. Just like everyone bar Microsoft-ites now thinks it's ridiculous that WP7 can't.

If Video MMS was not the de-facto standard today noone would care if WP7 had the ability or not. Fact is, all cameraphones today offer this feature, therefore it comes as a complete shock to the average consumer that their brand new WP7 device does not.

Of course, more and more people don't MMS these days when everyone has a smartphone with YouTube apps and email. Problem is, WP7 doesn't even allow you to share your video on YT or via email unless you first sync it to a computer.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fb401:
Please do not use "we" since obviously you weren't watching the comments and blog post roll in about how ridiculous of an omission it is.

The fact that video mms is not present is infuriating. I USED to do video mms with my wife all the time on my Touch Pro2. With no option, I've been forced to stop. For MS to advertise WP7 as the "get in and get out" OS, this is a straight slap in the face.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
I'm surprised people are still telling others to email files when every other smart and feature phone allows users to send video over MMS.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
That was in 2007. This is 2011. The iPhone does all that and more. Stop using this terrible excuse. Only makes you look like a troll. That doesn't work, sorry...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crimson Lotus:
I think they are adding MMS in the upcoming NoDo update. Just have to wait and see.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyclical:
I have the HTC Arrive (that came with NoDo), you cannot send MMS video, just images. Hell you can't even attach it to an email.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digger1985:
Ok

Apple releases a new phone OS

Cannot do most things that EVERY other phone of that period on the market can do

Gets applauded

MS release a new phone Os

Cannot doe SOME things that other phones of that period on the market can do

They get bashed.

Sure that was 2007, but if you compare the 2007 iPhone with the phones back then, you will see it lacked so many featuers, the same if you compare WP7 with other phones now, WP7 lacks some features.

What exactly is the difference?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vetvito:
Apple was also bashed. Some even said it wasn't a smartphone.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmckinzie:
Give me an option to upload video to fb, and I'll be okay.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0adman:
Flash forward two months or so...

..and the WP7 still cannot send a video from the device...at all. The only way is still to connect to a PC and use Zune to pull it off and send it. That's fancy! So I just need to carry around a notebook with Inet connectivity so I can send videos I capture on my phone? Awesome phone!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkp1977:
Buy an Android device or an iPhone then? Or just wait for Mango which will include video sharing.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0adman:
Great idea and something I will likely do considering how ridiculously incomplete the WP7 disaster is. Do you happen to have a link to a feature list for Mango that specifically states that sending video will be supported?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonejunkie30:
Here's your link 500 updates coming in mango it will include it.

I am using X8 Chinese version, with Android 2.1.

Unfortunately Chinese version do not have any google Apps.

I wonder if there is a way to install this Apps on phone.
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Say what apps you have and i will send you download link with all files.

I have android 2.1 so i will do this just give me the list.
[XPERIA X8 General] lolier:
Thank you very much!

I list them below:

1. Google Market (Want it most)

2. Google Maps

3. Google Search

4. Google Latitude

etc.

if Google Market is too hard to get, at least i want Google Maps.

God bless you!
[XPERIA X8 General] zen1k:
Maybe you have Google Search by Voice?
[XPERIA X8 General] a-k-t-w:
What version of Android do you have?
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Here you goo but i cant find latitut

and i have version 2.1.
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Vending.apk is android market.
[XPERIA X8 General] lolier:
Install all of them, only Maps works.

Others just show up a empty window then gone with nothing.

Especially Gmail caused my phone reboot....

Thank you all the same.
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
i have see many other apps to for settings

do you want all other googpe apps
[XPERIA X8 General] lolier:
Of cause, come on~

The Google Android Phone without Google Services makes me feel been F**Ked
[XPERIA X8 General] vippie:
I think the russian 2.1 firmware includes chinese. If installing the apk's fail you could try flashing that. Don't forget to backup your build.prop just in case you want to go back in the future.
[XPERIA X8 General] lolier:
How flash to other firmware, as i am already 2.1?
[XPERIA X8 General] muzik_demon:
You can flash back to 1.6-there is a thread about it in x8 android development

Then change your customization code and then use seus or pc companion to update..
[Nook Color General] druzhil:
Is it possible to enable Live Wallpaper on the NC?
[Nook Color General] rckymtnrfc:
Perhaps after an update to 2.2 from B&N, which will need to be rerooted....and then might still not work. Unfortunatly Live Wallpaper needs 2.2 and currently the Nook is 2.1.

I would be curious to see Live Wallpaper running on the Nook that was posted running Froyo.
[Nook Color General] kaicherry:
Sure is...

nookdevs wiki has a page on this, NookColor_Enable_Live_Wallpapers.

[Nook Color General] Noah98:
Does this slow the nook down any?
[Nook Color General] rvictorg:
Umm just fyi live wallpapers were enabled in Android 2.0
[Nook Color General] pezhore:
I noticed a little lag with Circuit lwp, and some other live wallpapers don't even seem to work due to the resolution (pixel zombies).

I'm a little more concerned about the battery drain.
[Nook Color General] iconoclastnet:
Wouldn't that only be a big issue if you spent a lot of time with the screen on and not using an app (i.e. when the home screens are showing) ?
[Nook Color General] cal3thousand:
This is true.

Any interactions with the Launcher will result in increased battery use for the live wallpapers. Depending on the efficiency of the LWP itself, some being better than others.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
hey guys.

tried searching but nothing came up...maybe because im not sure of what this function/widget is called?

i've seen screenshots of people's phone where their power button menu (which gives you shutdown, airplane mode, etc, has extra options, like reboot, restart, etc.

what is this widget/function called? (so i can search for mods) and what are the available mods for it? i would like to add the reboot option to mine. and if possible, would also like the option for the "close all apps and restart" option i saw somewhere recently.

if this has been covered elsewhere just link me please. tried searching like i said but came up empty:confused:

thanks!

Works well. Reboot after flash was really fast. Now we need a battery mod and notification pulldown alt themes.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Fortune090:
You are amazing, sir. :D Worked perfectly on Perception 7!

EDIT: One thing that's kinda bothering me though... no % on the battery. Know that's not really stock 2.3, but it would definitely be something awesome to have in the future. ;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mikejames07:
I took the liberty of trying this in a JI6 build ROM, Almost everything works except the time doesn't show up and the reception bars are showing the EV icons instead of the regular green icons. Anyone know how I would go about porting this for a JI6 build?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Colton5419:
is launcher pro required for this?

I flashed via clockwork mod recovery and it wouldnt boot
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mikejames07:
I'm using ADW launcher and it booted. The theme had a few errors with my ROM, however, because I'm on a different build than JK3. It did take a litter while longer to boot though.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Colton5419:
Hmm, im hesitant to try again - I'm using AXURA ROM, it should work :/

I let my phone die, and tried starting it back up again with the USB, and it's stuck on a repetitive FC boot loop. No idea what to do. :(

How do I install gingerbread theme on my captivate w/ cognition 2.3b7 and launcherpro
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Cozmo1:
I haven't used Cognition in a while, but I do believe its currently using a JK3 ROM so I wouldn't expect any issues. Use Titanium to back up your data anyways.

Assuming you have CWM (Rom Manager) installed, it tends to load correctly/best if you save the zip on your internal SD card, choose Recovery with your power button, highlight "Install zip from sdcard" and load it that way.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bradleyyy:
Even after I do that the phone still looks the same.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bradleyyy:
Actually got it to work...now curious how to change my dock with LauncherPro?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] avgjoegeek:
Lol guess I didnt explain right.

I know it hides the style.xml file when it's re compiled... But where?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] DAGr8:
well if you decompile the apk using the guide I quote in my previous post nothing wil be hidden anymore . it is in res/values

fyi I tried puhing it with metamorph and it didnt take :(

[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rawat:
Great work on the JPU theme gtg465x

I think it'd be great if you incorportated the attached icons into your theme. They're based on the stock gingerbread icons, but I've made some modifications.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Bierfreund:
I flashed Gingerbread_Theme_JPU_1.1.3.zip over Darky's v5.2 (already Gingerbread look, but without percentage values in battery icon), but unfortunately i also don't get the battery icon with percentages with this theme, like on the screenshots on page 1.

I extracted the zip and had a look in framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\ and i did not find the battery icons with percentage values like i expected.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rawat:
Version 1.1.3 doesn't have the %age battery icons. Darkyy said to me yesterday that he'll be implementing my modified gingerbread icons into his ROM ;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Yeah, sorry guys. I didn't put the percentage icons in the JPU theme yet. Kind of busy right now, but I'll see if I can get to it sometime soon.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] n7slc:
I love this theme but sadly, I'm having lock-up issues when using it that is only corrected by a battery pull. I've flashed it twice, same issue.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Which version? You're the first to mention this so I'm guessing it's not my theme that's locking you up. Probably oc/uv and it coincidentally didn't happen until after you flashed this? Revert, wait, and see if it happens with your old frameworks.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Who wants to beta test a new JPU version with battery percents (provided by Rawat) and a fixed power off icon? Please report back. Thanks.

Egads.. I just want the compiled .xml that the styles.xml gets thrown into. I know how to decompile and recompile the .apk

With the metamorph I can inject only the stuff like images and bits of the .xmls that need to be tweaked into the existing framework-res.apk. But I dont know which one it is.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mrgoodwords:
Still won't work for me. I flash the JPU version using CMW but the theme won't take. It applies the .zip really quickly -- I think too quickly and then prompts me to reboot. When I do reboot, there are no changes to the theme.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Try this. Boot into recovery (clockworkmod), select mounts and storage, select mount /system, and then install the zip from sdcard.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] smeltn:
Any chance of you adding the Gingerbread dialer to this as well? If not does anyone know where I can download the Gingerbread dialer at?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mrgoodwords:
Mount /system sent my phone into an endless boot loop and I'm unable to unmount system now. Strange.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Uhh... that's very strange. Sorry, not sure what you can do. Seems like something wasn't right with your setup though.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
It would require quite a bit of modification to the Gingerbread dialer to get it to work. Not sure how to do it, but it's not as simple as just replacing the dialer apk (you will get endless force closes). I would either use one of the themed dialers posted in this thread or make a themed version of Dialer One.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mrgoodwords:
Ended up flashing to stock and re-flashing Assonance, restoring apps and all that Jazz. Like the way this theme looks but going to steer clear for now to avoid this happening again.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] King Shady:
Guys sorry if this is a stupid question, but will this work on on a stock rooted captivate on 2.1?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] n7slc:

Go under settings about phone and look for the kernel. Last three characters will help you determine what version you should install.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] avgjoegeek:
Doesn't work on Cog 7. Have some strange anomolies.

On the lock screen it will show the "arrows" lockscreen image over the top of the stock lock screen.

Shows the incorrect text when I plug in the phone stating that the SD Card is corrupted.

Under the USB mount option it shows the correct image - but the text is all fubard again stating that the SD Card is pooched.

I think this is mainly to do with that Cog's ROM is using a customized kernel - and it could be the framework is a lil' strange.

I've been successful in applying this theme over the di11igaf v2.5 rom, but there are a couple small issues. Di11igaf's rom has haptic feedback working on all buttons. When I apply this theme I lose haptic feedback on my home button. Another issue occurs when I use either the stock browser or dolphin he browser. When a page is loading and I scroll down on the page the small progress bar pops up below the notification bar. When the page is loaded and the progress bar disappears I am left with a black line going across the whole screen about a mm below the notification bar.
