First AppMonster + Titanium Backup.

Then AppBrain, KeePassDroid, Handcent SMS, AdFree, ClockSync, Tasker and Barcode Scanner.

Possibly LauncherPro, I don't know yet. I haven't tried the stock launcher yet, but LauncherPro is certainly miles ahead of TouchWiz on my current phone :D

AndExplorer then LauncherPro.

In that order only because LauncherPro wasn't showing on the marketplace for me for some reason, so I had to download the apk off his website.
[Vibrant General] stephenj37826:
Has anyone else noticed that ad soon as you flash a stock kernel. Coming from a i9000 kernel your battery loses a lot of battery. I think the i9000 kernels don't charge to the same voltage which would explain the percieved higher battery usage
[Vibrant General] qreffie:
I think it has something to do with the phone's ability to sleep on the i9000 kernels. It drains the same for me when I use it a lot, but when I want it to sleep it continues to drain as if the screen were on the whole time.

Google really seems to me kicking a$$ :) This is like a huge upgrade over the older version and quite unexpected too! Microsoft really seems to be losing out to android in a big way....

The annoying bug in pinch and zoom is now fixed.....earlier it used to suddenly zoom out like crazy or zoom in abruptly....it never used to smoothly zoom in/out...!

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] haelix:
Sorry, but what market fix do you have in mind ?

My problem is, in spite of having downloaded an update mid-December (and "About" reads "version 5.0, build 5014"), it still shows no sign of vectorized rendering.

So if there's some market fix to apply, I'll gladly do!

(For information, the Androïd Market upgraded itself at the sametime without any problem, and I have a International i9000, German firmware)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] marf3:
didnt notice that. Thanks :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dopedangel:
how do you know its not vector based
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] haelix:
Well, the vector feeling just isn't there. It's still the same sequence when zooming: blurry zoomed bitmap, then grey grid, then tile by tile redrawing (downloading of bitmaps) at the new resolution. When using fingers for zooming (or shrinking), the zooming (shrinking) movement I initiate is carried through until it reaches the next zoom level.

Other reasons that make me think something is wrong with my 5.0 version:

According to the google help page about caching and offline reliability (www google com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1079238 - sorry no URL yet) I should have a "Cache Settings" menu item; all I find in the "More" submenu are "Labs", "Help", "Terms, Privacy & Notices", "About".

I never got anything from dragging down two fingers (which should "tilt" the map somehow)

Compass mode is not there either (first, tapping on the compass button to center the map on my current location, then tapping on it again to activate compass mode)

Funny thing is I've already had a google maps upgrade, and that was successful (what it changed, mainly, from the original version shipped with my device was that the "compass" button used to be a Lab feature, and was streamined in that version. I also think that the Google Places integration was much more comprehensive in that version).

Thanks for any help,

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] wilnotdie:
Back on the G1, i used to use Contact Sender. It was quick and simple.

It doesnt work with Android 2.0 and up.

I tried the premier, but it doesnt work with my G2. Using CM6.1

I started using CIACS Contact Sender, which works for numbers, but not for the rest of the contact info...address..etc...

Contact Sender(premier) works however, I have to click a few extra things each time i want to send something...then choose the sms button to actually get it to send.

Also on (premier) I cant type a name to auto filter contacts, I have to manually scroll :/

Anyone else experiencing this?

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks.

[Wildfire Android Development] chtamina:
Suddendly the screen of my wildfire won't turn on, it's all black but buttons light up and it vibrates.

I tried to reboot removing the battery but didn't help, the phone turns on but the screen stays off.

Unfortunately the phone isn't rooted, I tried to boot in recovery mode but the screen remains off.

The main difference when I boot in recovery mode is that I get asked for driver for a

Android Bootloader Interface

when the phone is booted normally adb won't work, probably because the debug option is unflagged.

is there anything I can do ?

thanks

Send your phone to HTC.

Or take a big risk an root your phone with unrevoked and install a new ROM (wouldnt do that if I were you).

[Galaxy Tab General] netnem:
Hi everyone.

AT&T will sell you a data only package for the Galaxy tab for 25/month for 2gb. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with swapping the SIM cards from the Galaxy tab with a smartphone (I currently use the Nexus One) and having a just the Data only package.

In short, I'm satisfied with using Skype on 3G(using the cooked apk to allow 3g calling) when I'm not at home on wifi, and I use Google Voice for text messaging. AT&T won't sell a smartphone plan with just data only at a reasonable price.

Does anyone have any experience with this? My Nexus One shows up as an unknown phone under the AT&Ts website, so I'm wondering how I can drop my text (200 messages) and my 450/month plan so I can just have data only for 25/month.
[Galaxy Tab General] Rodfather74:
It should work. I'm using the iPad SIM in the Galaxy Tab and it works fine. It worked in the HTC Aria and read it works in the Nexus One. You just need to change the APN to 'Broadband'.

by hitting MENU/SELECT RADIO BAND you could change this band b/c the phone is GSM/UMTS i guess if you were in another country you might get service.

THIS ARE THE BANDS

Automatic

EURO band

USA band

JAPAN band

AUS band

AUS2 band

well the reason of the post is b/c i change the prefered network type from WCDMA preferred to GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) and i have seen better speedtest before i was getting 1.2mbps D and .60mbps U now check out the speedtest. take a look at the images and plis if any of you could test it out and see if you get better speedtest please post thanks just to get some input.

this is a better img of the speedtest. done thru the website.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMan42:
Virtually any change you noticed was a placebo effect. Changing the preferred connection type or bands is not going to increase speed, neither will changing the apn.

I've tinkered with all aforementioned settings before and never saw anything change. What matters if where you're located and what tower you're on. Its a good chance that when you switched the connection method that you connected to a different tower with better backhaul which would merit the change you saw. Again, all location based.

If you really changed the phone to only use GSM, then it wouldn't have got anywhere near 1 Mbit/sec, because the fastest GSM/EDGE will do is around 0.38 Mbit/sec.

So I suspect that software isn't doing a lot.

Also, even if it is showing stuff about bands for Europe and the US, that stuff is set in hardware and you can't just change it via a menu. i.e. if you've got a European Desire Z then it's not going to work on T-Mobile's US network because it just doesn't have the right antenna.
