[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simplycax:
Hey there, first time posting!

I just installed cyanogen 6.1 and love the speed and features, but im about to uninstall due to a few things that aren't working. I've searched but didn't find a solution.

1st. Auto brightness takes 15sec to change and at times, doesnt change at all.

2nd. Anybody know a good "sense ui" like theme that has:

a) the sense dial screen where as you type, the contacts appear right above.

b)Also the sense camera screen.

If i can get some help with any of my issues, i would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

I've been trying to purchase a Galaxy Tab from AT&T, and I would like to know if I were to unlock it, would I be able to use my regular sim card that has unlimited data on it ? I have a family plan and 3 of the lines have unlimited data plans and I'm not planning on adding another data plan for 25.00 a month. Thank you in advance

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JayHine:
I have an HTC HD2 running mobile 6.5. The only thing I dont like id the keyboard. Is there one out there that is exactly the same as the iphone ie the spacing between the keys is so much better on the iphone and it is less cluttered. I have tried the SPB one but it isnt as good as the built in one. Although I have not seen it is the mobile 7 one any better. If so can it be used on the 6.5 version.

Thanks for any advice.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] DN41:
Did you try swype?

yeah its another concept but i liked it much more than the integrated one on my hd2.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JayHine:
I did try it but could not get on with it. The mobile 7 keyboard looks better do you know if there is a way of getting that for mobile 6.5
[Nook Color General] sasigns:
Hello all.. I got my NC set up and rooted last night. got my apps installed one issue I am having is when I go into aldiko and try to import it says there are no books to be found. I have everything in the same place I had it when it was working on my phone. Can someone please tell me were I need to place them?
[Nook Color General] ewong90:
It should be in the Import folder under eBooks
[Nook Color General] sasigns:
thats were I have them :(
[Nook Color General] rainmakerrc:
No problems with Aldiko importing for me. I just placed the epubs into the ebooks/import folder and ran the import function.

Did you do a fresh import, or did you just copy the ebooks folder from your phone's SD card to your NC's SD card?
[Nook Color General] Fishfoot:
Check the case sensitivity. Don't know if this matters. My card is formatted to fat32 but since android is linux based I'd wonder if this may be a problem. I had to delete the "Import" folder and create it again as "import". You can't do a rename in Fat32 'cause it sees them as the same file.
[Nook Color General] Buff McBigstuff:
Afaik, the ebooks have to be on an sd card and not the internal memory.
[Venue Pro General] millerliteguy:
Man is this getting annoying..I previously had a HD7 than decided to try out the DVP.

This phone keeps freezing up whenever connected to any wifi network. This makes this phone useless.

I'm currently waiting for my 3rd replacement within the last week. This is insane does anyone think that this will ever be corrected.
[Venue Pro General] onthemove31:
it happens a lot while you are browsing the marketplace, yes it does. i m pretty sure if Dell releases a firmware update for the wifi module in the phone it should be fine. :)
[Venue Pro General] efjay:
See if turning off 3G connectivity helps at all, seems to conflict on mine.
[Venue Pro General] millerliteguy:
I sure hope so, the problem I see is that evertime I call Dell and tell them about this issue it seems to be the first time they have ever heard about it.

I'd like to know what the heck is going on over there, I think they owe us an explanation and at least a time frame for a fix or a replacement phone if it is defective hardware.

[General Accessories] LockeOn:
I found solution for LiveView connection issues and had it posted in Sony Ericsson LiveView™ Issues Thread on xda-forum.com . Unfortunately it hasn't been noticed by users untill now that it has been ripped from this forum and posted on www.robot-home.it on 30th December(http://www.robot-home.it/blog/2010/...i-comunicazione-e-al-blocco-dello-smartphone/) but as their own invention what made me really furious (Luckly it was corrected). It took me time to figure it out.

Link to original post form 23rd December: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10025306&postcount=190

This is the solution:

First of all delete LiveWare Manager, which causes our phones to crash all the time, and gives only one feature in return (shows all available liveview plugins which you can find manualy in the market). Then remove any kind

of Task Killer etc. Next step is to instal MinfreeManager (keep in mind that it requires root premissions). I recommend using Mild/Agressive preset but you have to change Secondary Server values very low (for example 6mb). By setting Secondary Server values to very low LiveView Application and all of the plugins will be kept alive all the time, which will prevent any disconnections. After this I used this solution http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=493 posted by adolfotregosa. Now my LiveView works pretty fine with my SGS running CM 6.1 Nightly. Even if you'll go out of the bluetooth range and then want to reconnect it will happen more or less instantly.

Optional:

Instead of removing Advanced Task Killer you can leave it just set Security Level in Options to Low and then set following processes to ignore:

1. com.android.providers.drm

2. LiveViewApplication

3. OpenWatch

4. com.android.bluetooth

AND all of the processes from plugins you have (they have "liveview" in their name)

For me better option is with Advanced Task Killer enabled but everyone can decide for themselves.

I hope all of LiveView Users will now be able enjoy using this device.

Thanks to adolfotregosa for his discovery with OpenWatch which is the part of this solution.
[General Accessories] the_jako:
Thanks a lot! right now I can use it... Now the only problem is the battery life...
[General Accessories] audiobookman:
omg ive been ready to though this thing out of the window, after a google search this post came up.

I had to downgrade then root my htc desire hd then ran that little program, and so far the machine is working as it was advertised!!!

you are a saint for finding this - so far 2hrs and counting connected, before hand i was lucky to get 3 mins!!!.

happy days!!

thankyou again
[General Accessories] kpjimmy:
Fantastic find! I just did all as described and it has been connected for a good 30mins so far and no disconnects and/or reboots! LOVE IT! :)

Now I must find a replacement watchband hehe...
[General Accessories] Myzhar:
I wrote you an email and wrote you two posts but you ignored me. I'm happy to help people writing solutions on my blog. I wrote something by myself and sometimes I take, solutions on other sites (normally in english) and I translate into Italian to diffuse them.

Every time I take a solution on other sites I put a link to the source, as in your case... there are also thanks to you and Fregosa... did you read it again? I never said it was an invention of mine... I'm not used to take works made by other people and pass them as mine.

I'm sorry you do not understand it, but it is not my fault... maybe italian to english translations do not work very well.
[General Accessories] Justin^Tan:
WHat if I dont use any taskkiller? would I have a problem with Liveview?
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
Sorry I haven't write You back but I have been really busy with exams. I understand this whole situation was misunderstanding and I am glad that it has been corrected, thank You for that.
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
There is no need to use takskiller, it is just an option because some people are using that.
[General Accessories] Myzhar:
I'm happy to read this words. :)

This evening I tried "Task Killer" configuration on my Galaxy Tab and I need to say that works a lot better than "minfreemanager".

I'm writing another post on my blog to allow italian user to get it, I'm also making a few screenshoot to allow a better understand of the configuration step, feel free to take them (when the article is ready) and put them here :)

Now I'm sure that the only problem on no-sonyericsson device is the managing of the memory and of the apps in background
[General Accessories] Justin^Tan:
what i mean is what step above i need to do if I dont use task killer

I never use one

in case i want to buy Live View, would i have a problem with the disconnection? or not?
[General Accessories] kpjimmy:
I do not use any task killers. But to answer your question the connectivity issue still remains, even with this fix. You'll need to live with this issue for now until Sony Ericsson addresses the issue or some dev here can come up with a permanent fix.
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
Acctualy I think You got me wrong. The optional configuration with Task Killer contains everything that the regular option does so:

1. Delete LiveWare Manager

2. Instal MinfreeManager (keep in mind that it requires root premissions). I recommend using Mild/Agressive preset but you have to change Secondary Server values very low (for example 6mb).

3. Use this solution http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=493 posted by adolfotregosa.

AND:

4. Install Advanced Task Killer, set Security Level in Options to Low and then set following processes to ignore:

a) com.android.providers.drm

b) LiveViewApplication

c) OpenWatch

d) com.android.bluetooth

+ all of the processes from plugins you have (they have "liveview" in their name)

So as You can see in both configurations MinFreeManager is used, but the optional configuration is enriched with Advanced Task Killer.
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
It sad but it's true. This is just a PARTIAL fix, which makes LiveView more or less usable (sometimes it is great, sometimes You just want to threw it out) it will not make all of connection issues dissapear. But I have to say that with the newest firmware update vie SE Service Update and with this fix it is really good.
[General Accessories] kpjimmy:
Shoot I didn't even know they released a new firmware update. I have my unit at work so I won't be able to update and test until next week. Lockeon, is the update pretty straightforward? D/L the update software, select x10 mini, connect usb, press both top buttons and that should connect it right?

Thanks again for the heads up on the new update!
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
Yup, just do everything You mentioned and it will update the device, at the end it will give You "Instalation failed" message, but don't worry next time You connect liveview and run service update it will display that You have the newest firmware.
[General Accessories] Myzhar:
Task manager is to be used because when Android goes down of memory it kills background processes, included bluetooth manager and LV plugin applications. This is why LiveView Application loses connection, it does not find bluetooth process until you do not try to connect LV again and Android re-activate it.

To be sure that memory is not managed by Android I set Auto kill frequency to 30' and at Crazy level... then I do not have disconnections
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
Acctualy that is not entirely true, because if You open some kind of game or use flash in browser it will eat your memory faster than Advanced Task Killer can free it, and You will lose connection with LiveView. To reconnect You would have to start LiveView Application once again. To prevent Android from killing bluetooth manager and LiveView stuff it is important to set Secondary Server values to very low (that is why MinFreeManager is needed). Advanced Task Killer helps keeping high RAM level better than MinFreeManager which prevents phone and liveview from lagging but it won't protect LiveView and bluetooth stuff from beeing killed by Android.
[General Accessories] Myzhar:
Yes, you are right. As you can read in my last blog post I say to make your first procedure as first step (not real, first step is LV update :p ).

The secondo step on my post says:

"Se non l’avete ancora fatto eseguite la prima procedura di stabilizzazione della connessione di LockedOn riportata nel mio primo post"

translated:

"If you did not make it yet, follow LockedOn's first connection stabilization procedure, as written in my first post"

As we say in Italy "Advanced Task Killer" is the "ciliegina sulla torta"... the thing that makes a good work become a excellent work!

I have a doubt: when I open MinfreeManager I always get default values instead of the one I set. Is it right or is there something wrong in my "root"?

For "rooting" in used Z4root
[General Accessories] kpjimmy:
Man I really wished that the Liveview would at least retain the time and then update when reconnected to the phone. I can't use it unless the phone is attached to me! Eh...my lil gripe I guess lol...
[General Accessories] Drakosha:
Hi!

After a lot of investigation and searching, I eliminated connection problems with LiveView, but it still remains almost unusable, because its damn "LiveView Application" crashes the whole phone randomly. Where is that famous "linux stability" if one small app can easily crash the whole OS...

I've found out already, that this happens if the application's process gets killed by Android (thanks to XDA forum, I managed to correctly setup task killers). I googled for solutions, and found these:

1 - "There isn't a way to prevent this directly, without a rooted device." - SO! There IS a way to prevent this on a rooted devise! Does anyone know about it?

2 - "The app needs to put itself in the Notifications bar in order to keep from getting killed when it's in the background. This is what apps like Music or Pandora do in order to keep playing music and not get killed when they are backgrounded" - well, is there some tool to selectively "give" some running app the notification bar icon? Because if we wait for SE to implement this, we may as well wait for Apple to produce iPhone watch :(

3 - "HOWTO: Change Process Priority Using the Nice Command" - I'm not quite sure if this applies to Android, but I've found it on Motorola Droid forum...

Well, is there a developer ready to look into this? After all, ALMOST everything is working fine, the only thing that needs to be fixed - keeping process alive no mattaer what...

Best regards,

Draco.
[General Accessories] mrmrmrmr:
is there any progress on this ?
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
You can use Auto Memory Manager which also alters minfree settings and gives additional options in "Running Processes" if You select one You can "Increase Priority" and "Always Keep Alive" (this is what Drakosha was talikng about)

although these options are just temporary.
[General Accessories] Myzhar:
There is a new firmware available and SE updated its "Update Service" too... let's hope this is the good one ;)

[General Accessories] Domanian:
I installed the update on the LV and since then I have no connection problems with the LV using with the SGS on 2.2.1 JPY.No taskkiller no Speedhack or lagfix.

It looks like gmail LV remote still doesnt work and the SGS Player is not in use.

Put i ve installed poweramp and thats works great, also SportyPal Pro works great with it.
[General Accessories] kpjimmy:
With the liveview update, can will still use the liveview app in conjunction with the minfree manager, openwatch, and autostarts?

I ask because I performed the update and the issues still arise from time to time. I need to test it out to see I guess :)

EDIT: Just uninstalled the openwatch app to test for now. Will report back on connectivity.
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
Openwatch seems a little bit useless now that LiveView Application has been updated. Same thing about Auto Memory Manager, because I checked that now if LiveView Application is closed it restarts itself automaticly. For now I deleted openwatch and it seems fine, I don't want to delete Auto Memory Manager because I prefer that LiveView Application woudl stay on all the time instead of closing and restarting itself. About Auststarts I noticed that Pbap bluetooth process when enabled makes LiveView working worst same as with all other watches like it MBW-150 etc.
[General Accessories] mrmrmrmr:
how do you use (configure) auto memory manager to keep Liveview running all the time ?
[General Accessories] LockeOn:
Same as any other minfree editor, just set Secondary Server to very low (for example 5 mb)
[General Accessories] chongbh:
Guys, I just bought my LiveView and do I connect it like the way we connect to the PC so that PC Companion will detect the LiveView?

Currently, I am having problem lof incoming sms not showing, what is the problem?
[General Accessories] psycmos:
LiveView connection problem FIX solved!!!

I do this 3 steps:

-1º step

-Using Root Explorer, apply the Fivef Process (this seems to be needed only for non-Sense 2.3.x ROMs - looks like Sense in 2.2 builds allows LV to connect without confirmation).

-2º Step

- Find in the market & install the BEST Android program I've seen yet - "AutomateIt!"

- Create the following rule in this program:

-TRIGGER: BLUETOOTH DEVICE CONNECTED (LIVEVEW)

-ACTION: START APPLICATION (LIVEVIEW)

Using this incredible program, you can completely control every aspect of your phone's behavior - for example, automatically start PlayerPro and disable WiFi when wired headset is connected, automatically start WiFi when GPS detects that you have entered your home or office (!) and do million other cool things.

-3º Step

-Install liveviewcharm from market:

This application will maintain processes from "liveview app" always on, preventing android system to kill them.The LiveView app needs to put itself in the Notifications bar in order to keep from getting killed when it's in the background.

I think that guide will fix all liveview connection problems with all compatible devices and CM7/MIUI/STOCK.

thanks to Drakosha Old, fivef, ishii.
[General Accessories] postulio:
Is there any development/update on this? i just found out about the liveview and i really want to buy it (It is really cheap and i work in an office where it would be perfect).

i havent purchased it yet as i am doing research to see if the issues have been fixed, i read this thread and steps but want to point out that

the link no longer leads to anywhere. what was posted there?

Anyone?

Hey all, HTC Sense has been my Favorite UI for LONG time now, recently, i`m having some sort of a bug or so.

it`s like this:

UI is OK, running fine.

i fire an App (Barcode Scanner, a Game, or pretty much ANY big App except the really small apps like calculator, market access..)

when i hit BACK button to exit from the app, i`m supposed to go the the HOME but when i`m there i find that HTC Sense is LOADING (just like if it was FORCED closed or something) of course, i DO NOT get the dialog which says "HTC Sense isn`t responding [Force Close]" it`s just loading... and that has become VERY annoying... to wait for Sense to load after every app i use!!!

any solutions?

Notes:

Desire 2.2.1 LeeDrOiD 2.3b

with esk0Glass transparent theme on top

[of course i had NO PROBLEMS what so ever with those 2 installed together in the past, i just had the problem recently.]

i have 144 App -according to the AppDrawer- (30 of those are games *just to show off*) installed.

2GB SD card, FREE 330 MB

Free internal memory 54 MB

APP2SD+
[Desire General] remmyhi:
It's not a problem with Sense. It's a problem with LeeDroid... Have Lee installed since a week now and seems like I have the same issue as you have, whereas I spent like a month with Aurax and ReflezHD and the problem did not appear.
[Desire General] devil snake:
oh ok that helps a lot. thanks.. Now at least i know where the problem is.. apparently i have to flash the last patch 2.3c .. although the changelog doesn`t say that it fixes this problem,,,,
[Desire General] andQlimax:
If you have a CUSTOM rom, HOW can you think is a bug of the htc sense? Come on..
[Desire General] devil snake:
Don`t the Devs use the Source codes or those stuff to modify it ??!! O_o

Well, i`m not a Dev so i don`t know.. but that`s what i thought..
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
Most of the time reloading of Sense is caused by to low RAM, how long do you go without a reboot? It's best to reboot once a day/once every two days.

As a alternative you could also use a task killer to clear RAM but there is more setting up to do with apps you can kill and apps you should not kill. If you decide to use the taskkiller, do not use it with autokill or something similar just use it instead of the reboot.
[Desire General] remmyhi:
@up - well, although your statement abot ram may be a good guide on where to seek for the problem, from what I understood my problems with Lee roms does not corelate with low ram... even reinstalled latest LeeDroid and checked - 130mb free ram and still random (well mostly about the time I finish speaking or closing the applications) FC happened... Again mpved back to Aurax and everything seems ok. I do have my own reason - reed in the polish android support forum that Lee has changed the default CPU settings and the problems disappear when you install the default sense settings. Good luck.

ok so i've just re sorted my epub collection and moved a limited number of them over to my DHD for reading at work (on breaks) etc.

put them in the /ebooks/import folder booted up aldiko and hit import, it did 2 books then just hung saying importing books, it didn't crash or anything just didn't do anything even after being left 12 hours

i wiped the old collection and anything to do with aldiko as well as uninstalling it, re installed it ran import to create the /ebooks/import folder to avoid any issues there, and it did the same thing

open to ideas and suggestions, got a 14.5 hour shift tomorrow :(
