[Windows Phone 7 General] Seven_PRX:
Hi,

When using WiFi, and having cellular data turned off, some apps don't seem to be able to use the internet connection.

For example, my 2 RSS readers I have installed don't work. Probably other apps too.

Is this intended, or a bug?

Also I noticed this: again having WiFi on, cellular data off, when my phone is 'off' (locked/screen off), I think WiFi also turns off? Because when unlocking, I notice it is not downloading mails or updating other things. When I unlock it then it does receive the data when next scheduled.

Again: is this intended, or a bug?

Both things are really too bad, and don't make sense to me. When I'm home, or abroad, I really don't want to have my cellular data turned on. When I'm home I don't see the need, and want to safe my data bundle; when abroad I don't have it turned on because of the insanse prices you pay for data usage.

[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
the first, i haven't really noticed. does it happen to all third party apps? well for starters use the facebook app (not really third party as it's made by MS, but still should be the same) and see if that works over wifi only. if so, try a 3rd party app like shazam. if that works as well, then it's probably an issue with those particular apps and maybe you could get in contact with the developers and inform them of the issue.

the second, if you're not connected your phone to power source (ie charging it), it automatically disables the wifi on standby so it doesn't completely flatten your battery within a couple of hours. hence why you would be seeing this issue.

to be honest though, having data connection on whilst phone is in standby uses very little data as only the live tiles and email checks are done. and they're all quite minimal. but if you've got a dodgy company like i do (yes you are vodafone), where they charge minimum 50KB per session (how do i measure a session? twits...), then yea it can still rack up quite a bit even though the phone uses minimal data bandwidth in polling for info.

Has a privacy policy?Yes, in the app and on the website.

The Journal tested 101 popular smartphone apps to see what data about the phones, their users, and their locations they gathered and revealed to others. The Journal also reviewed what information the app tells users it will collect, and whether it has a privacy policy. Here is a summary of those findings.

Explicitly Asks Permission to Access

Read Contact Data (access data in your address book)

Read Internet's history and bookmarks (Web browsing information)

Full internet access (Can send data out about you)

Read phone state and identity (access unique IDs on your phone)

Read system log files (access to files on how you use the phone and apps)

Coarse (network-based) location (based on Wi-Fi and cell phone towers)

Fine (GPS) location (based on global positioning system)

Sends to Third Parties

Phone ID

Zedge says the application requests to read and write contact data in order to set contact ringtones, and that it does not store this information.

[Android Apps and Games] neurostu:
I've created a simple application called: Rock Anywhere. The application allows you to control your music player from ANYWHERE on your phone. It doesn't matter if you are browsing the internet, reading an ebook, or playing Angry Birds, you can literally change the track from anywhere on your phone.

This is accomplished by launching the application 1 of 3 ways:

From the notification pane

trigger off of the volume rocker

Long pressing the search button

You can disable the first two options in the app. To disable the 3rd simply select a different default application. Whenever the application is triggered a dialog pops up that tells you the current song and presents controls allowing you to jump forwards or backwards.

I've also added what I'm calling a super button to the dialog. The super button is a quick shortcut to many different things. you can use it to compose an SMS, send an email, open your browser, or initiate a voice search. (I plan on expanding this list soon).

So far I only support 3 media players:

Stock Android

HTC Sense

^3 (cubed)

I'd really like to be able to support all of the different media players I even contacted the developers of all the major media players asking for help to integrate players controls for their app into mine. Most of them have told me to screw off.

Here are a few screenshots:

You can download a beta version from here. It will only be available for a few days. This does not have ads although it has a place holder for where ads will go. I'm planning on releasing a Ad based and free version.

A few phones don't support the search long press, this is a problem with their stock ROMs, phones that I know don't work are:

Droid X

MyTouch 4g
[Android Apps and Games] The_Tech_Ninja:
Nice.. I'll give it a shot, sounds cool!
[Android Apps and Games] PollPixx:
Neither of the 3 players in the presets are installed, as i use power amp i cant and wont use this appication. Installing on my x10 went well though.

Sent from my x32 using the licking write method....man I am thirsty now!
[Android Apps and Games] nailmind:
Real nice. Great idea and done Rele well. Would use it but I'm using winamp but I'm going to be keeping an eye on this.

Good work
[Android Apps and Games] konefsta:
oh i bet they are using android because its open source , good for them , good for them .

keep up the good work dude , dont give a damn about people like them !
[Android Apps and Games] neurostu:
I contacted PowerAmp and WinAmp about being able to support their players and PowerAmp told me that maybe in their next version they'll open up and let 3rd parties control their player. I never heard back from winamp.
[Android Apps and Games] borodin1:
Very nice. Works with MusicMod by Elliot Stocker too. How about MIUI? Did you talk to them? What do you think the final version would cost? I don't mind ads but it kind of bugged me in this app for some reason.
[Android Apps and Games] neurostu:
I haven't tried it on any non-stock roms so I'm glad to hear it works under MusicMod. I've actually released a Pro and Free version in the market. The pro version $1.00 and the free is free.
[Android Apps and Games] borodin1:
It's worth a buck for any one who is using one of the supported players.

MusicMod is stock on CM based roms so you've got hell of user base covered already. I'll be watching this... hoping for MIUI support, shouldn't be too hard - it's based on stock I want to say.
[Android Apps and Games] 1immortal:
try to contact the guy that made this:

i know that there are alot of users to this player.

[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] odyseus:
Odd, as i'm currently running 1.5.1 and loaded via streak recovery ok?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] bitziz:
any chance of getting this on the official 138 release?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Reclaim:
Works great on 1.5.1 using clockwork. It will take several minutes to boot the first time. Just be patient. Thanks odyseus!
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] borijess:

Thanks ^^
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] borijess:
I just installed this on my 1.5.2 and I really like the battery icon.

Update. Not getting any 3g. Nevermind rebooted and it started working.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] borijess:
I tried this taskbar on 1.5.2 and had issues with my wireless turning back on. Went back to odysues taskbar and everything works fine now.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] vinokirk:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zt_lee:
I saw so many ROM out there for Hero GSM. I really confused which to use. Any kind soul can tell me which one is the best? :o:confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android167:
2.2 Froyo Vanilla - Floyo 1.2.0 with Flykernel 12pre and gingerbread theme

2.1 Eclair Sense - ChocolateEclair 2.0 (or 3.0 beta)

thats my opinion :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zt_lee:
Noted. Is Froyo Vanilla with Google Map Brut Mod?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lefttobleed:
froyd 1.7.2 is the best for me. very smooth, without overclocking. is not floyd 1.7.2 an old rom? was it that good? was an elelinux fan before.. but now am back to villian. they always get the last best rom if u know what i mean.

2.1 == villian 12

2.2 == froyd 1.7.2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zt_lee:
OK . Thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calico5:
For the 2.2 roms... ive tried VillainROM 1.7.2 and Floyo 1.2.0, both awesome roms.

For 2.1: i would say Villain 12 is the best :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hubix:
I'm agree with Froyo ROM but if you want to use HTC Sense I'm recommending RCMix with custom kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gecsa:
I prefer for u Tegro 2.4.1 rom with flykernel 12 kernel and set cpu app 710/192 Mhz. So 33,5fps!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirilliz:
Also for 2.1 with Sense i'd recommend modacos custom Rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fiscidtox:
Froydvillain 1.7.2 is the best
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] omar.hindawi:
so ive been going through some mp3 download apps, and Music Junk seems the fastest but I cant find everything on there.

I need a better app for that kinda thing. any in mind?
[Nexus S General] GuestK00431:
Was £549

Now £429

I rang them and they are refunding the difference back to all those who ordered at the £549 price so don't cancel people, this is a heads up.
[Nexus S General] BlackOtaku:
Sounds like good news for those across the pond. :)
[Nexus S General] slateac:
YESSSSSSSS!! I am sooooo happy, now I can buy one without having to import one from ebay.

FINALLY they realised how expenive £550 was!
[Nexus S General] Xailter:
I pre-ordered one for £330 with a 2 year contract - reckon they will cut that down to £200 or will I have to cancel and re-order?

EDIT: Seems like contract prices remain unchanged. Think I'll cancel my phone and just order sim-free at this new price!
[Nexus S General] JupiterDroid:
exactly what i did mate;)

[Nexus S General] DJTaurus:
When NS will be available in other EU countries?

CW ships outside UK?
[Nexus S General] Prototypeuk:
I wonder if this refund will be automatic or only for those who ring up and complain? I pre ordered mine on the 14th December.
[Nexus S General] GuestK00431:
Give them a ring, I'm going to again in the morning see if they say the same thing about the refund.
[Nexus S General] Lord_Buckington:
CPW don't ship outside the UK, sorry: Source
[Nexus S General] ekerazha:
Italy is the country in the world with the highest mobile phones to people ratio (1.5 mobile phone to 1 person) and Google ignores it, that's just stupid, economically speaking.

[Nexus S General] Prototypeuk:
I will be calling them in the morning. I will let you all know what they tell me but I have a funny feeling it will depend on what operator you get connected to :confused:
[Nexus S General] dirk1978:
Yeah it always does. Im going through the @cpwcares twitter feed at the moment, they're pretty good and tend to send you a decent link to a support section that will help you. Telephone support is awful.
[Nexus S General] DJTaurus:
1)The new price from CW is also the final?....i mean it wont be raised again to £545 after christmans period?

2)In UK NS will be sold exclusively from CW?
[Nexus S General] Prototypeuk:
*** UPDATE ***

I have just telephoned CPW and the lady I spoke to seemed very confused when I told her. She said that it was showing on my order status that the price was £429.99 so she didn't know why I was charged £549.95.

I was asked to go into a CPW store with a copy of my bank statement and email confirmation so they could arrange a refund. I said that this will inconvenience me as I can't get to a store between now and the New Year so I was asked to fax the information instead. Now I have got to wait 1-3 days for a response.

Anyone else telephoned them about this?
[Nexus S General] wooger:
I rang them first thing this morning; was told they'd be refunding the missing £119.99 to everyone who has pre-ordered. Mentioned that the 549.99 had been charged to my bank account on Friday, and was told I'd get the difference re-funded this week.

I live in hope. Just hope the phone gets here sometime this week.
[Nexus S General] GuestK00431:
Told me the same again this morning so can't be taking the piss and are refunding us all.
[Nexus S General] Prototypeuk:
The lady I spoke to this morning phoned me back at around 4.30pm to say that they have now had an internal email regarding this price drop and that anyone who paid the pre order price of £549.99 would receive a cheque in the post in the next 7-14 days for £119.99.

I have had my dispatch email with its tracking number and it shows I paid £429.99 lol

Fingers crossed it doesn't snow too much in the night and it arrives tomorrow!!

Does anyone know where the warehouse is located?
[Nexus S General] :
It's in Birmingham.
[Nexus S General] philipdeane:
Has anyone managed to get the difference refunded yet?

I've rang CPW, who sent me round various departments and failed to call me back twice with confirmation on whether or not they will be giving the refund. :(

Disappointed with CPW, certainly not disappointed with the Nexus S though :D
[Nexus S General] lf2k5:
I read about the price change on the register... they still hadn't shipped the phone on the 19th, so I rang and asked for them to refund the difference.

The guy I spoke to was quite off - saying they don't refund the difference if the price drops, to which I said "what, not even if you haven't shipped the phone yet?".

He was being an arse, so I cancelled the order there and then, and then reordered on the website 5 minutes later, with confirmation of shipping arriving an hour later - got the phone for 429 collect from store. I've since had to exchange mine for one with a working back button, but the net result is I'm very happy with my phone! :D

Anyone waiting on a refund that still hasn't had it, needs to get in to a CPW store and start reading the riot act: distance selling, 14 days cooling off etc... according to the CPW peeps I spoke to, they don't charge your card until they dispatch it - this was despite me sitting there looking at my bank statement seeing the transaction had already happened! In future I'll go straight to the store, where they actually seem to know what they're talking about!
[Nexus S General] mr_stoosh:
Has anyone had the their refund from carohonewarehouse either via a cheque or back onto their debit / credit cards?

I'm still waiting for a cheque to arrive as I cancelled my original order and placed a new one. It made quite a considerable dent in my bank account!

Hello. Please help me. my phone can not use the rom manage. I have used one once, but can not be used again. when I turn on the program, still connected 3g/wifi but nothing more happened at all. I have copied the program into the correct directory. My phone rooted.This phenomenon occurs after I Flast 2.1
[Vibrant General] mmalott:
What doesnt work? Does it not install? Why are you copying the app at all? Why not install from Market?
[Vibrant General] duongthanhcong:
I installed the application from Market but I can not use the rom manage.

I don't know!
[Vibrant General] Master™:
Rom Manager*

You have to be rooted to use it.
[Vibrant General] dcontrol:
You can't expect people to help you if you don't tell them the problem.

So its installed, did you flash the clockworkmod? Should be the top most option.
[Vibrant General] Master™:
Also, did you download it from the market, or did you steal the pro version from online? I am asking because you said "I copied it to the right directory"
[Vibrant General] blizzard1017:
Maybe I understand his/her problem. Rooted, installed RM but cannot install Clockwork?

Few options here, search for the standalone update.zip with Clockwork and do it that way OR wait a few hours and try again.

The 1st choice I had to do once because RM wasn't liking my phone and the 2nd choice sometimes the server is down.
[Vibrant General] duongthanhcong:
First, my phone t959 rom UVJI6 normal. Then my rom to version 2.2 T959UVJFD. I do not feel satisfied so I returned to the Odin 2.1.

My phone has a normal root and fix lag.

but then, I could not manage to use the rom again.

Sorry for my english level is limited. I'm from Vietnam
[Vibrant General] duongthanhcong:
Yes. this is my problem. How do I do now?

Thanks!
[Vibrant General] jamesd86:
If youre trying to flash another rom you need to disable the lagfix first.
[Vibrant General] blizzard1017:
My assumption is you have OCLF, try removing it then giving it a go.

Google a clockwork update zip that is pushable with ODIN, I found one the other day. I MAY have it still but I am not sure and I honestly have no clue where I found it, wasn't xda I am about 90% sure. It is not really a solid fix but will get you to where you have CWM. Rom Manager will not recognize you have it installed but when you go to enter recovery mode it will enter into CWM.

Did you by chance also flash a custom kernal? When I tested out a few I noticed my phone did the same thing, my knowledge currently doesn't expand far enough to know if they can even be related though. I am still learning a lot myself.

Battery skins:

Feedback is welcome! Thank-Button is desirable ;p

HoneyBat

Makes it sense? / Spirit of the HoneyBat:

Maybe for some people it's hard to see the "indicator". Maybe some thinks it have none, but it does.

You see the white line in the inner ring. It reduces about 10% on every 10% step of decharging battery.

With less than 40% the second inner ring (blue one) open as well.

Hope you guys get the system very fast.

Maybe I will design a number version later, for those who don't like the minimal looking, and who want more clear and straight information.

How to Install:

Download the zip-file you like and open it

Place the included folder to sdcard\data\beautifulwidgets\skins (or \scskins for SuperClocks, or \bskins for Batteryskins)

Choose Widget and go to settings -> Clock Skins / Super Clock Skins

Choose your downloaded skin, and apply.

Enjoy

[*]Troubleshoot:

If you have any problems with installing the skins: Try to download them in Beautiful Widgets.

You can download them in the Skin section!

Level Up Studio's install instruction should work on every phone.

If not, just download my skins in the app.

Questions, feedback or wishes?

Ask free

I decided to make only new skins just for custom roms or themes. Execept I love your color proposals. If you have a rom or theme ask me and I design you a matching skin.

Hope you guys enjoy!
