So i am trying to figure out which launcher to use... I like the lp cuz I really like the 3d app drawer, but overall I like the adw launcher better...is there a way to get 3d app drawer on adw launcher?

Sent from my freshly rooted sex machine aka Icy MT4G!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
Not until @anderwebs implements it. I'm in the same boat, almost. LP is a little smoother and has very cool widgets. ADW is open-sourced and that makes it 1000% better. Plus, anderweb is one funny guy :) but for some reason he does not want to implement 3D effect to the drawer, I think he wants to release ADW Pro version (paid) with some crazy animations and 3d effect later. Not a big deal for me at this point since CM latest broke 3D in both stock and LP so I can't have it either way.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitsunisan:
Anderwebs is concerned about adw taking a performance hit with the 3d ago drawer. I have both, and keep coming back to adw.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskwith:
BLAHHH!! I was hoping to hear a solution to where I can push 3D app drawer to ADW, BLAAST! kk well I will have to wait then.

Are there any ROMs out there that have fixed or tackled the trackpad sensitivity issue that causes the cursor to bounce all over the place? I'm sure most G2 owners are aware of this condition in certain lighting...it makes texting in sunlight extremely frustrating

i was wonderin da same thing recently. da touch pad SUCKS onda G2 i never even use it
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spovat:
it's actually pretty useful sometimes when you want to move back a few characters but it's rendered useless under certain lights. Even when you're not using it, it drastically effects not only texting but general usage of the phone by trying to select things on its own.

I don't think I posted this as I can't find it.

I have two 16gb SD cards that I was using to test various Win and more importantly Android ROM's. My first one was a Class 2 so I thought I would get a Class 4 as it is supposed to be able to read/write continuously at twice the speed of a C2.

From my tests the C2 is something like 25% faster.. is this normal?

Thanks

Is it possible to detach apps from market?

I have Brut Maps installed but the market says there is an update - i dont want this update as it will overwrite my brut maps.

So is there a way to remove maps from the market?

Cheers guys
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Just 'untick' the auto update option on the Market for Google Maps
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beady_uk:
It is already unticked mate but still shows as update

And if there is more than one app to update and i click update all it will start to update maps aswell.

What about if i use root explorer and move the .apk from /data/app to /system/app?

Would that work?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
It'll still show as an update, you can't turn it off...just have to be careful
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beady_uk:
Ok thanks mate. Was hoping there would be a way to remove the market association.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w.0.o.t:
i think you can use titanium backup to detach the app from market.. the free version may work. and you may need root too. can't verify as i use the donate version and already rooted.

once installed, long press the app and click detach from market. let me know if it works for you. :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powlemann:
Hey guys,

I have a very annoying and reproducible problem with my Desire. Everytime I connect the phone via USB (no matter if dock, laptop, wall) it reboots ~2 seconds after removing the USB cable from the phone.

I have had this problem for about 2 weeks now, across 4 or 5 Custom Roms (Sense and Non-Sense) and right now I am on CM6.1 Nightly 214.

It just annoys the crap out of me, for example when I got the Desire in the dock next to my desk and I receive a call, I can only accept the call handsfree, because removing it from the dock would cause a reboot and I would lose the call...

Please give me some kinda advice, I just flashed the latest radio and it worked twice without rebooting and now I'm back to square 1.

All the best,

Paul
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
Whenever I change android builds, my apps magically automatically reinstall from market.

I hate this and want this to stop.

I thought maybe it had to do with Titanium backup, but after going through all the settings there I couldn't find it there.

Is this some Android setting I need to take care of? If so, which?

Thank you
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:
You are using HD builds, right?

Next time uncheck backup phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
That'll do it, thanks.

Is there any way to retroactively disable it without running the entire setup again?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kam333:
you dont need to run the set up again, check your settings, scroll down to privacy & if "Back up my settings" has a tick, untick it & ur done.

p.s. or just un check the auto restore below it.

My apps I want to backup gets into internal memory on the phone. Whats up with that?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
For some reason, even though I have 'backup' AND 'restore' disabled, suddenly when I reflash builds my old apps reinstall (and only those that existed back when I had this option set on).

Any way to disable/delete those retroactively?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Moon2:
Do not sign into your google account when you're setting up the build at first, after its all set up, go into market and do it from there, or go to Accounts & Sync, and add your google account. It's because google's backed up most of your apps list onto their server.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
That makes sense, as only recently I discovered how to set the wireless settings while installing the build, so that could be the X factor.

Thanks for helping me shed light on this :-)

I notice that the LG Optimus One on Orange UK has a built in UMA app for using UMA on Orange. Is there any possibility this could be lifted and installed on a desire or does it need specific hardware?

[Desire General] ballandbiscuit:
Anyone think there is any future in lifting it from the LG and trying to port? I am not skilled enough to do this but in the right hands...?
[Desire General] ballandbiscuit:
I guess you could try the very basic which is to take a backup of the .apk using Astro File manager then post it here?

In Astro go to Tools->Application Manager->Backup then copy it to your SD, mount it on PC and copy?

I will try installing it on my desire. Doubt it will work but worth a go as it doesn't seem like anyone else has tried it yet!

Thanks
[Desire HD General] Spybreaka:
Apologies if someone has posted about this, but I couldn't find anything.

I have an infrequent problem during phone calls, where there is a popping/zapping sound that comes from the internal speaker. It doesn't sound like normal reception difficulties so much as an electrical zapping sound from the speaker itself - sort of like the speaker is short-circuiting for a split-second (the zap is very brief).

The weird thing is, though, if I make a Skype call it's far more prominent/frequent - suggesting that it might have something to do with the quality of connection.

I don't have any issues with my bluetooth headset or handsfree.

Anyone experienced something similar?
[Desire HD General] deechte:
I have it sometimes
[Desire HD General] DanteGR:
Hello people!

I believe I have the same problem as you guys and it has become more severe till yesterday. It has become more difficult to listen to people but for just one call about an hour ago it became normal again but just for a while...

I have bought the phone about 25 days ago and I'm sceptical as to whether I should ask for a new device.

What do you all think?

Does this problem persist for you?

How long have you had your DHD?

Thanks in advance :-)
[Desire HD General] deechte:
For me it's bearly a problem. Happens almost never. I have my device since November 11
[Desire HD General] JupiterDroid:
its a big problem and not limited to just the HD. It also occurs on the Z as well. It never happens on a 3g connection just on a 2G call. I returned my HD because of this, purchased a Z because i thought it was limited to the HD but it wasnt;( I have now sold my Z and awaiting the release of the Nexus S. It really has put me off HTC phones for life;( You wont get this problem if you are living in a good 3g area.

Napster APK

I have a Napster subscription with mobile streaming but also cannot find Napster in the Android Market for my HTC Desire HD with Android 2.3.3.

I have tried a com.napster.bishop-1.apk that can be found on Mediafire but it seems to reject the correct e-mail and password when trying to login. It might be because it is an old version of Napster that might have expired.

Has anyone found the current Napster 1.2.2 app as APK file? I would greatly appreciate if you could share it with me.

Thanks!

i know there are other readers but i do prefer mobipocket thanks for any help
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Sounds like a faulty battery or some kind of defect at the power supply.

I suggest you try this with another battery, maybe from a friend.

You should check the usb connector on the phone too for some sort of deformation or smudge.

I thought that it could be the usb cable you are using, but since it does the same with the dock, it's not it.

The easiest and the most not likely way to fix it is with the calibration of the battery, if you have luck maybe it's just the OS that errs.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powlemann:
Thanks for your thoughts on my problem. Right now I am waiting for an important call but I got a spare battery from a friend of mine already and will later check and see if the problem occurs with the spare battery as well.

But the other point you mentioned was a calibration of the battery: how exactly do I do that? Just AmonRA Wipe Battery Stats or are you talking about another method?

Cheers for the advice!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
this is for the calibration of your battery.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755903
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Hi, hope it works with the other battery, otherwise you'll have to send it for repair.

The battery thing I mentioned, has a minimal chance of working, but at least when I am desperate I try things that have even the smallest chance of fixing it. So in essence the process is: charge untill full when powered on; disconnect charger (which will automatically reboot your phone in your case);

don't let it boot, enter hboot for example and turn it off; then charge till full again; now boot into recovery wipe stats; and finally just boot into android.

Another thing worth checking I think is the pins where the battery connects to the phone, they should look clean (I wipe pins with rubber for a pencil) and intact.

Edit:Well seems like Marios already posted a link but mine is specific for your situation :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herczyn:
did you solve the problem?

i have the same thing... very strange.

calibrating the battery didn't help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powlemann:
No, I still haven't found a solution. Strangely though, it doesn't reboot anymore if I charge it via USB on my laptop. On my desktop and via the wall charger it still reboots every time I unplug it. Sorry I can't be of more help :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herczyn:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hg42:
I tried all things listed in this thread and some more, too.

But, it still reboots when removing from power supply (pc connection works now).

Perhaps you tried some things not listed here?

I am not sure when the problem started for me.

I installed cm7 nightlies with no reboot-problem, also switched from alpharev1.5 to alpharev1.8 and from cwm2 to cwm3.

All in a few days.

Somewhere along these days the problem appeared.

Btw.:

I got reboots on both kinds of usb connections (PC/power supply).

Debugging connection (adb, fastboot) worked.

Accessing the phone as usb storage device worked, too.

So this may be a little bit different from the cases described in the thread.

To solve the issue, I tried several things:

First I restored older backups (versions of cm7) with no success.

Then I restored my last backup of cm6 nightly from just before cm7, and it didn't work either.

As I was 100% sure that this worked before, I now concentrated on the remaining parts, recovery and boot loader.

So I first tried downgrading to clockworkmod2.

Then I tried updating to a newer alpharev1.8 (as it was a little bit newer than my installed version).

After finding this thread, I became a little happier again...

I applied the fastboot oem ... thingy (hmm, what does it do exactly?).

Then I calibrated my battery, which seemed to work well, as it shows 99% now, which it didn't before.

And at the end I installed the fixmisc-update.zip as linked above.

Between each step I checked if the issue disappeared.

Nothing of those steps completely solved the problem.

However, when disconnecting from PC, the reboots don't appear anymore, so at least something has changed.

So, powlemann, ferreinf and others being successful with the steps above, which configurations do you use now?

Can you tell me which change solved the issue for you?

Do you use alpharev1.5 or 1.8 (and the later from which date) or none of them?

Did you install cwm3 again after solving the problem and did the problem re-appear?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powlemann:
Good News for you, hg42!

I am 99% sure you can fix the problem when first flashing AmonRA recovery and then do Mocados Usb Brick rickrolled.

Do you know how to flash a different recovery?

[Focus General] dhan911:
I play audio podcasts through car's aux in and just plug in the other end to my Focus's headphone jack. I have noticed that many times the podcast suddenly lowers volume to nearly inaudible levels and happens intermittently.

Once the problem shows up if I

- play songs, the volume level is fine

- stop and start playback of podcast, the problem persists.

- unplug and continue playback on Focus' speaker, the volume level is just fine

- unplug and plug it back in and the problem goes away.

- never have this problem when playing back over headphones (when in gym)

I have this problem only with Podcasts and don't get it at all with songs or videos.

Anyone else noticed this?
[Focus General] Thresher:
Audio output sucks on this phone, that is for sure. Major issues. Sorry to hear about yours.
[Focus General] tuffluck:
how so? i'm not having any problems at all.
[Focus General] dead_on_the_floor:
Did any of you notice it's not your standard 35mm jack? The headphones that come with the phone are clearly deeper than the standard jack, and have two bands around it instead of the normal one.

I presume you are using standard cable to connect to car's aux jack....

I would check to see if there is a special samsung accessory to make the proprietary jack into a standard aux output?

Samsung are notorious for using this style of jack on their phones. The Galaxy line of android phones use the same jack.
[Focus General] tuffluck:
that is weird. i hook mine up to my car with the same jack i used for my iphone with no problems. in fact i am under the assumption the sound quality is actually better than with the iphone.

maybe this is a canada thing?
[Focus General] FL5:
The plug is set up to use headsets with the microphone, and may not work well with some older stereo audio cables. However, I have used it with a podcast and found it to work quite well. I suggest trying another cable, cuz the Focus works fine.
[Focus General] Thresher:
The line level output of the 3.5mm jack is approx. 40% less than that of the iphone, or my HTC Tilt2. That is the issue I have and that others have commented on.

For instance, iphone plugged in playing on my car stereo, Panteras Cemetary Gates @ 320kbps MP3 is mind boggling loud at 50% volume on the car and 100% volume on the iphone. With the Focus the car stereo volume needs to be at 90% to be equal to the volume of the iphone.

Also, since the Focus needs to be at 100% and the car stereo nearly 100% you hear the phones whining, hissing and popping and every non-music portion.

Super lame.
[Focus General] liquidiq:
There's some volume problems that I've noticed on the Focus, in that it's not consistent through playback sessions and such.

The iPhone 4 uses a Cirrus Logic codec with an integrated headphone amplifier, the Focus seems to use the built-in codec with it's headphone amplifier, which might not have the same amount of oomph.

I've measured a 7-8dB lower volume on the Focus when using a line-out cable to an Audio Precision test machine.
[Focus General] Thresher:
Thanks for reporting that! Great post.
[Focus General] bennyj71:

In my '95 M3, I run an Alpine HU (9814 IIRC) with a Line in Adaptor, I run very HD (thick) gold plated lines and a Splitter (all from Monoprice.com, one goes to my portable Sirius, other pops up by my center console sunglass cubby, split happens under the passeger seat) and I usually have my 120Gb Zune attached to it, but I tried with the Phone the other day and it worked great. Played a Tool concert and it sounded as good as the Zune. Like the Zune I set the volume to about 80%, still had plenty of head room for serious volume in the Alpine. (only way to listen to Tool is LOUD!) I do run an old school Pioneer Amp, Pioneer Kevlar Components, 2 JL Audio Stealth Boxes (each is an 8" Sub).
