[Nook Color General] jjpfeifferjr:
Another data point: got my Nook Color December 25. It was version 1.0.0. Updated to 1.0.1 and rooted with auto-nooter-2.12.25 on December 26. All went well (including using the Shop, though I didn't buy anything) until last night. Entered the shop and got the infamous "authentication problem" message, after which my nook reset itself. When it was finished, the green 'n' icon in the lower left was on (which is odd, since it appears to have updated from 1.0.1 to 1.0.1).

When the dust had settled, the device was still rooted (I still have Market, still have NookColor Tools, still have SuperUser), but everything I'd put on since rooting was gone, and all my settings (wifi key, barnes and noble account, gmail account) were gone.

I'm reasonably familiar with linux (though only a little bit specifically with android), so I'll be happy to poke around to see if I can find anything....
[Nook Color General] 3matthew3:
Possible reason?

Search "maintenance update nook" on Google News [ sorry, I can't post links yet ]
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
No, that would be 1.0.1. Android Police tend to be late on the uptick on real news, and make up the rest...

FYI anyone that is running the stock UI on there G tablet viewsonic just dropped there new UI
[G Tablet General] Reggie777:
Just got the notification that the update is available, and am downloading it! Yeah! Excited as all get out over this! Anything would be better than the previous version. Christmas came early. :cool:
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
Post some pics or videos..
[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
Got it. Installed it. Works :)

Biggest noticeable change is of course that you can switch to a more stock looking UI by pressing 'Classic Home' in the Tn'T App Drawer and from then on it will stay there unless you go back to the layered one.

It's the 5 screens by default and I've found no way to add any to that. The options/settings haven't seemed to change any.

Second big change is that you can use Live Wallpapers now (yay!). I haven't noticed an obvious speed boost in the Tn'T UI we're used to - but the Android-like UI is on par with Launcher Pro. Suffice it to say, Fast/Quick and very responsive. I MAY remove Launcher Pro now since this is doing what I want it to do so far - though the customizable launch buttons are preferable.

These are just the obvious differences. I'm sure there's more going on under the hood that the devs will pick up on quickly.

This is def. now usable out of the box - as long as the customer knows that can switch to the Android-like UI by hitting Classic Home.
[G Tablet General] justauser:
got it and...

I got the update. Took two tries to install. On reboot it asked if I wanted launcherpro or thrtzpntap as home. Added background image. The releasenote said it included angrybirds but I had that installed. Didn't change the calibration fix that I applied so still responsive. Market is gone so I need to reinstall. Settings still doesn't give access to all of the settings you get on android. Haven't checked if you can move apps to SD.

They did qsome stuff but not enough if you want android.

I entered this from the tzblet
[G Tablet General] Talk2Rider:
I loaded the 3389 that came out today (12/23) and gave it a test drive around the block. I like the "classic" launcher. I got a FC on the weather app even though I wiped cache and user data prior to loading the update. It does replace recovery, so if you have Clockworkmod, be aware it unloads that. Unlike 3316, this version does not install angrybirds. The main concerns I would have if I were stuck using this would be the inability for the calendar to sync with my Google calendar. I am headed back to TNT Lite now.
[G Tablet General] brian_h_kim:
the stock calendar program does sync with google calendar...

the stock contacts program does not sync with google contacts (import only)...
[G Tablet General] mortician10101:
if someone could pop a little screenshot on here, it'd be awesome. i'm on VEGAn beta4 and i'm not exactly in the mood to have to reinstall all of my stuff unless it's truly worth it. They need to fix the weather app so it can go outside the US though.... Canadian user here, and i can't even get Montreal, where a location based software such as that one should be fairly easy to set-up as universal, i'd think...
[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
I would say stay with that unless you're having issues. This update makes it usable but I wouldn't say it necessarily improves the speed over what I've seen from VegaN and TnT Lite etc. It just makes it so people won't HAVE to root, put a new ROM etc.

I'm noticing a definite slow down after time, which did not happen with the older 3053 so I'm not sure what's up. It's not a terrible slowdown, but when you initially start or for example, use Launcher Pro - and head into the App Drawer, scrolling is seamless and instant, and with this new ROM after some time of the device being idle, slight lag seems to be introduced. Now, as I mention it's not world ending, but it never happened before soooo I may be heading to TnT lite myself. In the end, is it enough to move from a fast, working ROM? I don't think so. But it at least makes the device worthwhile right out of the box.

BTW to someone who said it does NOT come with Angry birds - that's not exactly correct. I did not have Angry birds installed. I went from 3053 to the one released this evening and I have Angry Birds on there now.

UPDATE: No longer experiencing the slowdown. The only thing I've done differently is 1. charge it up - it was at roughly 20% or so when I noticed the lag (in reality that was probably around 5-10% battery charge left)...and 2. I installed the Google Apps and Market.
[G Tablet General] <Laharl>:
Downloading the new update now (2am Christmas Eve) I can't wait to see how this new update helps my tablet!

I can't seem to make it sync... the calendar program asks for a url to an .ics file... Am I in the wrong place?

[Android Themes] factualpuddle:
Hello all, I have a quick question, how do you add custom icons for SMS Unread Count? you can only choose from three? but i have seen tons of people with others... thank you^^
[Android Themes] mikep99:
Have a look here...

http://android.kanokgems.com/sms-unread-count
[Android Themes] mosrobit:
I don't know how to create the \data\com.kanokgems.smswidget folder on the sd card. Windows wont allow me to create a folder with the "\" character in it and if I use root explorer or astro nothing happens? Can anyone help me with this?????
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
that folder is already on your sd card... just put your icons in that folder.
[Android Themes] mosrobit:
crazy thing is, I don't see the sms unread folder in the data folder....crazy directories
[Android Themes] Saschaaa71:
There is a "data" folder on your SD-

Open it. There you find a folder called: com.kanokgems.smswidget

If not create a folder called com.kanokgems.smswidget

Put your icons in there. That's it :)

By the way, does anybody knows how to change the align of the unread bubble? I guess you/I have to go into the .apk, right?
[Android Themes] Mrbrutesnipe:
Superb, thanks for this.

The problem I have is that doing this seems to resize my png file. Any ideas? I'm using the Desktop VisualizeR app to create something similar to the Android 7 theme.

If I use the same image for both apps, the SMS unread count always comes out smaller, no matter how much I enlarge the original file. Even resizing with Launcher Pro doesn't help, as it obvious that it's a few pixels smaller.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.
[Android Themes] mosrobit:
That worked, thanks alot
[Android Themes] bobbytables:
Any news on your question? Would like to know it, too. Also resizing would be great.

And does anyone by any chance know where I can edit the red bubble background? It is used by the launcher and by SMS Unread Count but I can't find it in the apps or in the framework (or anywhere else). I searched through lots of apks and it is nowhere! Any help? Please? I'm starting to think I'm either blind or stupid ...
[Android Themes] mwreeves:
Just did a quick run through of the app files and can't find it either. The red is hideous but the rest of the app is great. :)
[Android Themes] Shiwantha:
Thanks man, you made my life easy, I was thinking modding the apk to have custom icons. now its very easy..

Cheers.......
[Android Themes] r3volver:
I had the same question so I decompiled the APK and found that the bubble is drawn with java code. It's not impossible, but you'd have to reverse engineer a lot of code to modify it. The problem is that dex2jar doesn't work that well and smali code is difficult to work with. It'd probably be easier to write your own app.

Though I haven't tested it, it looks like you can change the bubble background color by editing an xml file. In res/values/colors.xml there's a line that says <color name="bubble_dark_background">#b2191919</color>. You'd still have the glossy overlay though which I think is just as ugly.

When I find the time I'm going to write my own widget. It's a good excuse for me to learn to code in android and it seems like I'm not the only one with a need for it.
[Android Themes] mothy:
anyone know of an app like this that will read notifications from google voice....taht is where I text message from.

Thanks
[Android Themes] stillblood:
I use adw ex and get the notifer plug in. you change the size and color of the bubble

I've downloaded smsunread from kanokgems, but wonder if it can only work as a widget? What if I just want to change the default red bubble for unread sms to blue on my dock? Has anyone tried changing the script?
[Android Themes] mloc33:
I can`t figure out the bloody app, I`ve followed the **** instructions on the app page, then followed the ones on here, I can find the folder, I put the icons there but it does`nt see them, plus the notification bubble does`nt pop up when a message comes in, is this Ginger bread compatible?
[Android Themes] watchmefall:
hi all !

quick question: the unread sms icon is always linked to the stock sms app, any way to go around that and have it linked to Handcent sms, which I'm using ?

thanks lads and lassies !

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr0pSh0t:
So here's the deal. I have A rooted Droid Incredible and i cant get past the splash image. I tried going into recovery and wiping everything and flashing a new rom but I keep getting the following message:

E: Can't mount dev/block/mmcblk0p1

It comes up when i try to flash a rom and says installation aborted about halfway through installing. It also comes up when i try to wipe and do a factory reset.

If anyone knows a way around this It would be immensely helpful, because as of right now i cant use my phone which is a problem. I'm running clockwork recovery v2.5.0.5.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbuchho90:
no clue how to fix, but didn't you make a nandroid? restore to that for now so that your phone at least works, until you get an answer.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baciv:
I'm not the most knowledgeable here by a long shot, but I feel your panic. First thing I would try is pulling the battery, waiting a few minutes, and then put it back in, boot to recovery, and try to restore your backup. Fingers crossed- at least this will hold you until someone who knows more than I starts asking the right questions.

Oh, and second, try searching for that error message maybe.

That's all I got. Good luck!

Edit: while I was writing this, two others gave advice first :)
[Streak 5 General] Piranhaflu:
I have just bought a Dell Streak and I am new to the Android scene. I was told the Dell Streak could be upgraded to froyo 2.2 . I do understand that the 2.2 froyo is smoother and not as choppy as the 1.6 donut . I hate the phone with 1.6 as it seem very unstable. How can I upgrade this safely . I understand that rooting is similar to jailbreaking a iphone . I have read about steakhouse (not sure what that is) I just want a smooth operating system as I will return the phone if I can not figure out how to upgrade it . I want to thank you in advance for any help from the Dell Gurus.

I was told this is the place to get my answer and that the best of the best on Androids are here. I am sorry for being so naive on the droid system but I could really use some help answering the above.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonboyuk:
Hey all,

Quick question - for some reason I have really dodgy battery life in any of the most recent Android builds. This includes the Sense HD and the SuperRAM builds, with both recent MDJ & Hastarain Kernels.

If I leave the device in my pocket for a couple of hours, in standby, the "Battery Use" claims the Display is the primary cause for my battery use.

Just looking at it now, Android System and Android OS are both on 12% and the display is at 57%. That's after the display being mostly off......

I've tried three ROMS, including VBN's Android build, an official 1.66 HTC build and an official 3.14 HTC build. Furthermore, I've tried the 2.15.50.14 and 2.10.50.28_2 Radio's, both recommended for good battery life.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Jon
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] technoob:
I am wondering the same thing. I am running darkstone hd2 froyo v3 with hastarins 8.5.1 oldcam kernel, everything runs great but it says display is killing my battery. If there is anything I can do about this I would really like to know.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonboyuk:
Phew, it's not just me then! If I could be bothered I'd dig up an old sense build with and old kernel and see what happened. However I can't remember which one worked best as I change my ROM on what feels like a daily basis!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] technoob:
I have been using this as my daily build but I really wish there was something I could do about the battery drain. If it is something about the phone that I can't change or if a different kernel or something would help, I wish I knew. Any help would be appreciated.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dan138zig:
it's not just you indeed, it's everyone :rolleyes: there's at least two threads already about this.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Samdeath:
Well, I dont really think its killing my battery life, however i did notice that its lower than when running winmo, I checked the settings and it says display is using 60% of power, I didnt really think anything of it as i guessed the display is easily the thing that requires the most power. So perhaps I have this problem too? I dont really know :)

Winmo I would get a day, perhaps a day and a half if i was lucky, android i get a day.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonboyuk:
That's the thing you see, if the display is off for 2 hours, on for say 3-4 mins while I check my e-mail, it's still at a really high figure. Yes the display causes battery drain, but no where near that much.

I wonder if it's purely a kernel thing??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:
Nope...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Galactus:
I've noticed it depends what Android rom your using. The issue for me is either the Android System OS is using 60% & over or the display is using 60% and over. Either way the display or the system is the battery eater in my case lol.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:
What eating mine is cell standby and wifi, both 35-40% while android system is only 20% and display is 5%.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] buzz killington:
My display always takes up more than 60% of the power usage, but I have had builds where it's reported very low, I don't pay much attention to that anymore, they're probably not that accurate.

I did ran a quick test the other day of battery usage in winmo vs android. In standby both android and winmo were about 3-6ma. On the dimmest setting with no app running, winmo used 78ma, and android used 95ma, so it's a little higher, but not extreme.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] telegraph0000:
I'm running at a crazy 67%...

For the heck of it, turned off all radio, left thephone @ 70%. Came back 1 hour later, tells me this percentage and the phone is at 63%...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] drakepayton:
Weather it's the Cell Standby, Display, Wifi or the Android OS, something is always taking power. If your phone drains completely in an hour or a day, the battery usage is just telling you what is drawing the most power percentage wise. 3mA or 300mA, it accounts for 100% of what's being used,screen off or not.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Samdeath:
My android os only uses like 5% maximum, display is usually 60 though

I have the stock 3.26.605.1 rom deodexed on my phone that I have been working on to make myself my own rom with rom kitchen. What I am wondering is, how do I go about getting the power control widgets in the pull down?? Does someone have or maybe make an update.zip or mm that will add these? I already have the 6 bar signal meter and circle battery with % with location removed and don't really want to lose them. No I don't know how to code so that isn't an option. Thanks for any help!

I recommend SkyRaider Sense 3.5 as a solution for getting the power widgets on the notification drop-down.

Yeah I was running skyraider 3.5. But I wanted something "my own". Thats why I want to be able to add the power widgets to the stock rom. Because I am playing with and learning the "kitchen". That way I have something for myself that is to my taste.

Wow!! I didnt think I was asking for the impossible here. I have read tons and tons of post and I know that the files where posted on here till that thread was closed down due to peoples behavior.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spence341:
It is not that it is impossible, but there are many working parts. The drop down notification is in the Services.jar file. You need a framework apk that came from a ROM that had the notification drop down (for the added png files). The 6 bar signal and battery % is also in the services jar file. There are a few ROMS that have this combo. What color are you looking to theme?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackwolf77:
Honestly I was hoping for just the stock look with power widgets. I work outside all day and the transparent drop downs are hard to see outside. Man I wish I was a little more tech savvy. I tried the framework from Nilsp (hope thats spelled right) business sense 3.1 but the notifications are kinda hard to see in the drop down. So i am back to stock framework.............. If there was a way to add it to Virtuous I would just his framework.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spence341:
I posted a theme for Redemption in the themes section. I believe it will flash over Virtuous. Check out the screen shots and let me know if that is the look. I have a flashable zip that can give you that.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackwolf77:
Yeah, I like that!! But is there anyway to do it without the transparent pull down? And I have big hands so I am not real fond of the 5 app wide app drawer.

I checked it out again and, I love the status bar theme, the pulldown widgets and scooby fonts!!!! I am just not a big fan of the transparent pulldown, 5 wide app drawer and rosie remaps.......... But at this point I willing to settle with I can get! LOL

So I downloaded your theme, deleted the rosie mod and clock mod. Flashed it and it works perfect on Stock deodexed 3.26.605.1 framework!! The market is force closing on me but I am fixing that as I am typing. Thank you so very much!!!!!!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berzerker7:
Be wary that the initial port of the power widgets to the incredible contained a lot of EVO code to the point where you were pretty much running on the EVO framework (the framework-res.apk was code for code an EVO apk). ihtfp (and I a little) have been working on a port to un-modified Sense ROMs such as Virtuous. Once we do, you can be assured we'll distribute the files accordingly or make a how-to.
