shortcuts

I cant seem to put any shortcuts on the home screen. I tried ADW, LauncherPro and Zeam. each one crashes to home screen if i click on "shortcuts" or "folders" for that matter when long pressing on the home screen to bring up the menu.

Uninstall and Reinstall Anycut, this is a known issue with the launchers..

So, does this apply all the time or do you have to associate it somehow with either a WIFI connection or app?

[Nook Color General] ColdH33t:
It doesn't work for me. I've tried TransProxy and it gives me a No Iptables error or something like that.

I think this is something that needs a ROM which is really disappointing. I need a proxy for wifi at school... :(

Hi,

on all samsung galaxy S there is a problem with bluetooth. I've associated the my phone with my headset and I can call with headset, but if I want listen the music or playing game whit my auricolare it's not function, WHY?

thank you soo much
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ickyboo:
Maybe the headset is crappy and old, which don't support the a2dp profile needed for media playback. Or you didn't set it up for media play back in bt settings

Written using grafitti on a Palm VII with 8 megs of ram and overclocked to 32mhz!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ldp85:
the my headset is mono and it'isnt stereo. I use the headset for the call but with my old nokia e51 I use the headset mono for the call e for the listen music, now it's impossible with my sgs :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steslatt:
Just wondering what a couple of the toggle switches do on the MIUI rom when you pull the notifications bar down. The APN and CPU??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cyanide911:
So I am thinking of buying the Optimus One and need some things clarified.

1. Video playback: How is it on this phone? Does it play mkv files well natively or with any app?

2. Is it powerful enough to support Android 2.3 and future higher versions?

3. Threaded messaging (SMS) - does it exist?

4. I read somewhere that scrolling in some menus lags a bit. Tried it in a friends Optimus one and it did lag. Is this an issue in the phone or something isolated in my friend's phone?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mcycharles:
1. Not a fan of playing video on phone, I'll just let this problem to others.

2. Yes and LG has confirmed that upgrade will be available in future

3. Native support

4. The original LG Home does lag a little bit, used LauncherPro and feeling good without lag.

Hope this helps :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cyanide911:
Yes it did :D

A bit skeptical about the lag though. The proccy is good enough (600mhz?). It shouldn't lag.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] xilw3r:
i noticed menu lag on my friends phone in one place only : the app drawer. (his phone is stock rom, not rooted etc)

and thats happening for 1 reason only: lg home laucher sucks :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cyanide911:
Yep exactly, the app drawer is the main suspect.

Does there exist a way to get rid of the LG additions and switch to regular vanilla Froyo? (And install stuff like launcher pro)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] xilw3r:
you dont need vanilla froyo just so u can use lp man.

just install it and choose to use instead of lg home :D they got no restrictions on that . not exatcly sure if u need to root it though. still not hard, just use z4root or how is that app called..
[Touch HD General] gahomaster:
My Phone will disconnected the phone operation

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuz10:
Ok I have been looking everywhere and can't seem to find a app that will set the wallpaper as is without cropping or cutting the edges off. I know the best resolution is 960x800 but it still cuts off parts of the picture. I've tried wallpaper set and save and a host of other apps from market and various android freeware sites. None of them seem to set them right, any help would be highly appreciated. I have an HTC evo running cyanogen 6.1 stable and everything is so far so good and I want to thank this website because without it I was lost. This is my number 1 forum so I know ill get the answer, its out their please help me find it. Thanks in advance!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3project:
flikie wallpapers hd is about the best ive seen at this. it still crops but i keeps most of the image quality
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkelle4:
Only thing I can think of is to take the photo you want, make the actual photo whatever the screen resolution is (480x800 from what I've read) with black bars on the side to make the entire picture file 960x800. Then use launcher pro to freeze the background so it doesnt move when you swipe. Your picture should be centered.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
When you select the image for a wallpaper, you see that little box in the center? Drag outwards on one of its edges.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuz10:
Thank you all for the speedy replies, I see what your saying. I have my desktop set to have only one screen already, but I went and got launcherpro cause of its features. But yea I downloaded a few pictures before that were 480x800 and it had the black bars on the sides but when I set it, it cuts off the head and feet, 960x800 however does not, it only cuts just a little off the sides. I'm guessing now that the picture is to wide and I wanted to know if I could make a picture keep its height and change its width. I don't know maybe keep the height from the 960x800 setup and the width from the 480x800 setup if that's possible.

My friends, friend has his set up so that when he sets a wallpaper it gives him the option to set as is, to crop, and i think the other one was to cut it. I don't know if its a application or if its the firmware (like cyanogen i mean) he uses, I would ask but he lives very far a few cities over. I have been combing the internet for this app or whatever, and I'm fairly new to android phones, but I got a pretty good history with computers so that definitely helps. But this one seems to be a common problem with a somewhat easy fix. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasongthang:
Are you sure you didn't mix up the 2 sizes lol. 960x800, and not 800x960. Not trying to be a jerk or anything, but I've done that before using Photoshop.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vg30deracer:
I cannot figure out a way to manage currently running apps more efficiently then the program already installed on the phone under "manage apps"

Basically the phone freezes and randomly drops signal. It is also running extremely slow and laggings even during simple txt messaging.

Any ideas
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heybobitsme:
You need to be more specific, because right now the only thing more vague would be to say 'i have a phone'. :p But, seriously, we need to know if it's rooted, if so what ROM, any hacks or mods, and even what phone it is. This wouldn't be the first time someone posted in the wrong section.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vg30deracer:
I can see your point... I am more familiar with the inner workings of automotive forums then this forum.

The phone is a t-mobile my touch 3g slide.

It is using the stock t-mobile program... I hate it, I dont know how to change it

It is not rooted, overclocked or modded in any way.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heybobitsme:
Ahh, ok. I know of a couple things that could cause the phone to be laggy. One is if you have a lot of text messages, you'll want to delete them. The second would be to clear your cache. Over time, apps that use data, such as the browser, will build up cache. To clear it you go to menu > settings > applications > manage applications > and you'll be brought to a list of your apps. Now just go through and start selecting apps and see if they have any cache and if so clear it. It will look something like the attached image. You'll also free up storage as well. The way you get to it may be a little different as it's been a while since I've messed with stock. Worst case scenario would be to do a factory reset, but I don't think that's necessary and should only be used as a last resort.

Also, I don't know about the random freezing, but the signal loss could be due to the SIM card coming loose or dying. The "locking" SIM card tray sometimes has a tendency to work it's way loose.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] socialdistortion:
My phone's taking up this habit of rebooting (or so) randomly and automatically. It doesn't show any error or message and just reboots about twice a day... How did i know... My music widget did not display the last song paused and the up-time duration in the battery status was only a couple of hours (when infact I haven't shut it down)

Does anyone face this problem? Two things that could have made things go bad:

1. Using Verbatim Class 4 8gb MicroSDHC (heard problems with 8gb cards)

2. I rooted my phone partially :rolleyes: (z4root did not work, superoneclick worked till halfway but I was able to access the root. Is there anything called incomplete rooting :D). And after deleting the useless pre-installed apps... unrooted (again partially ;)) so that I can visit the Service Centre if things go worse.

Will the phone face problems if it reboots every once in a while. I don't mind it as long as it does not give me errors :rolleyes:

Thanks,
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zecanilis:
Have you tried another sd?

AFAIK and with what i been seing arround here, that can be a card fault.

Incompatibilitys or something like that. It whouldn't be the first device like that.

Second change will be a hardware failure, wich is worst...

In my viewing, everything that is not normal, it's not good for your device.

So you should try to find a solution for it.

Cheers
[Optimus One, P500, V General] socialdistortion:
my bad... Provided wrong info in the last post.

My system uptime is 48hrs which means my phone hasn't rebooted. But my status since last unplugged is 3 hrs but I last charged my phone more than 12hrs ago and I haven't plugged it to a computer as well. This number haas changed twice today...

I am thoroughly confused... Don't think there is a problem with my sd card as the phone runs perfect... All the games and music stored in the card play without problems... Guess I'll have to investigate further.

If anyone has any suggestion do let me know:)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] legsim:
I had this problem, too. And yes, It's SD-card related.

The uptime counter doesn't reset every time, but the last unplugged time does, as you noticed.

I flashed with the OC kernel, and surprisily, my phone is now fully stable. I don't know if the kernel did really the trick, but you could maybe give a try... :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] socialdistortion:
Can you please elaborate. Flashed the OC kernel... with what?

Did you reinstall the original firmware? Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] legsim:
I used the custom recovery and I selected the "Flash from zip file" option, it was very simple once you get the custom recovery working !

It doesn't erase your data, and it doesn't replace the original firmware, it's only a patch.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] socialdistortion:
Do I need to install the custom recovery :confused: or is it pre-installed?

I don't think it is pre-installed. The key combination is not working. The phone starts up as usual.

And do we need to be rooted to carry this out. I'll try a soft reset meanwhile....

EDIT:

I got it. Need to use this "recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img" file to enable the custom recovery. If I put this file in the root of the sd card, will the key combination work? And what about the flash file? I'm sure it'll ask for the flash file when i select the option flash from sdcard.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gooberlx:
I've experienced similar behavior, mostly using 3D apps. Google's Nav will usually result in a freeze/reboot. Quadrant has done it many times. When I was looking in logcat and bugreport it was showing messages like:

W/SharedBufferStack(223): waitForCondition(LockCondition) timed out (identity=223, status=0). CPU may be pegged. trying again.

I can't be positive if the SD card is the culprit (I haven't had a chance to replace the stock card yet), or if it's a software or hardware problem. I've only rooted and modified build.prop to enable jit and stagefright...and that's it.

edit:

Phone just crash when I opened the new updated google maps. Attached the logcat if anyone can glean some useful info from it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] socialdistortion:
Mine is definitely SD card related.... Flashed the original firmware but did not help. The SD card kept unmounting and remounting (no rebooting though).

Finally went back to the bundled sd card and no problem so far... But my other 8gb card is working perfectly in other phones and the pc as well (very good transfer speed and all) Even when I had it in my phone it was snappy.

But I read that a new firmware has been released. hopefully that will sort the issue... Fingers crossed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RevengeFNF:
There is a new version of the firmware, V10E.

You need to try that one.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kulliminati:
I have the same phone and have no problems running a PNY 8 gig. card. I would try to re-rom your device but, be sure to back everything up first. If problem still persists try a differant sd card. ( class 3 or higher) I am currently running Cyanogen 2.3.3 with kernal update 2.6.32.9. OC to 806mhz. Semms to be running just fine. I hope that helps out.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] AzraelZZ:
Hi, I also facing the sd card problem. Can I update to v10e because my phone is v10a and rooted?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] smart2smart:
Before you guys upgrade, try this ....

Copy out all the data from your SD card, format your SD from the device, then copy the data back.

In addition, if you have shifted any Application data using the Move to SD card feature, suggest you move it back.

I used to have the reboot once a day, now I don't have it anymore ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dreiberg:
Formatting didn't work for me. Factory reset worked for a couple of weeks, but still got SD card unmounts with no apps moved to SD. The only thing that worked was physically removing the SD.

I did some search but I can't seem to find anything on this question. Not in Android for HD2 anyhow.

I use WiFi hotspot on the regular base and I can't seem to figure out a way to keep the data connection alive during standby or keep the phone from going to standby mode when in the WiFi hotspot mode.

I am on the latest US TMo stock rom and running MDJ FroYo HD 4.4.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deadmansink:
Maybe address "screen timeout" time? Not sure it that's what you're referring to. If in settings you enable data over wifi it is always on, but if you uncheck, then wifi is given the priority.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tongslee:
I have "Enalbe always-on mobile data" checked, but whenever the screen goes off (it's set to turn off after 1 minute) data connection seems to be cut off too.

As soon as I unlock the phone (wake up from standby) data connection is back. In the WinMo, If I remember correctly, the phone never goes on standby when in WiFi hotspot mode.

Thanks for the idea of using the "screen timeout". I never thought of that lol.

Till I find a solution, I will use that as a work around.

Hi,

I have a strange problem.

I have the original ROM 1.37 and I sync my wildfire with exchange server using the HTC Apps.

I set that the phone checks for new mail every 10 minutes on the peak hours and never on the off-peak hours.

Unfortunately it doesn't work as expected: sometimes when the screen turns off the synchronization doesn't work, sometimes scheduled tasks (as the alarm clock or the mail sync) doesn't work.

Why?.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
This is my first time flashing a new ROM. I decided to go with the stock Froyo ROM. And that went pretty smoothly.

I did the Titantium Backup to restore some of the apps I wanted back. However some settings didn't seem to come over, even though I selected to backup app and system settings. Examples included my phone contacts and my WinAmp playlists (songs are still there).

Anyway, that isn't so much the reason for this topic though. I did a Nandroid backup before and decided to do a restore of that backup. I initiated it from the Rom Manager and got into the Clockwork Recovery and saw it restoring. All appeared fine.

But when the phone rebooted, it is now stuck at the "Vibrant" screen. Has been stuck there for 15-20 minutes now.

I've been looking around. Is the problem because I went from 2.2 back to a 2.1 backup?
