[Nook Color Themes and Apps] motitas:
I've tried nearly every multitasking switcher on the market and I still cant find one that works correctly. Is there a switcher that goes to ADW on single tap home and goes to the switcher on either long press or double tap?

heres a list of what I've tried (issues are in parentheses)

powerstrip (too small, single tap access)

Quickdesk pro (doesn't work, makes screen flash black and go crazy)

perfect task switcher (single tap access, wonky)

MultiTask Manager (single tap access)

TaskOS (no home button setting)

Underground (takes over the screen, isn't really a task switcher,ugly list)

Appswipe (clunky, ugly, paid to set to home button)

Softkeys- Would be awesome, if I could get the settings to work as advertised (see below)

Prehome (best task switcher BUT single tap access)

Softkeys:

Softkeys has an option for setting single tap home (ADW) and then an option for long press home (PreHome). This would be the perfect solution, but for some reason the long press home doesn't work no matter what I do. Any Ideas?

The Ideal task switcher for me would be anything simple (a bar or box with icons) that could be brought up with double or long click home. If you know of any I'd love to try them out.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] foethalove:
I would like to figure this out as well. Haven't seen anything about it around here
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thecubed:
Softkeys works for me, I have it set for single tap home and double tap softkeys. I don't believe Softkeys supports long button presses, I think that option is referring to the virtual home button that Softkeys presents on screen when called up.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Yes, it does not support long press on the physical button, that would be nice... As said above, it's a long-tap on the Home button on the popup.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] foethalove:
Any ideas if we are using button Savior instead of soft keys?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] prettyboy85712:
Powerstrip does single or double tap. I currently have mine setup with ADW EX. Single tap to Homescreen and double tap to invoke.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] motitas:
I might use power strip then, is there a way to make it larger? As for the long press on home, hopefully we'll see cm on the nc

EDIT:

I got powerstrip working pretty well, but as I said before I wouldn't mind it being slightly bigger, also the "recent apps" folder has a few issues of its own. When a large game (or grooveshark) is in the recent apps and you try to launch it you get an "activity no found" error.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
I found PreHome to work best.

I have the physical button mapped to PreHome, then when have PreHome open SoftKeys.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] seeddemon:
I like button savior. It pull the last 6 apps that u have used when you long press the soft home button.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
........as does softkeys..
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] beehiveblack:
Try swipepad beta... I dig it.

Works from anywhere in an app or not
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] myecomemail:
You may want to check out Taskswitcher (free). Once set up it uses single press on physical home key to invoke recent apps list and allows you to set up your own home app for double tap. Long press is not supported I don't think. If anyone knows of apps that allow setting long press actions (recent apps or otherwise) please share. I did notice in the DEV forum that someone made a custom Froyo version with custom home button behavior including long press so maybe someone could share how to set that up in 2.1 if thats possible.

Thanks for this tip! I replaced SK with BS a day or two after rooting, and had no idea this functionality was built into BS!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rbebber:
If you turn off the sk service check mark you can double press the nook button and still use bs
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] seeddemon:
SK Service?

What is this and where do i find it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] peiziyu:
SK Service is the SoftKeys service. If it's running, you get a curly arrow in a circle that allows you to bring up the home, back, menu, and search buttons. It should be installed by default if you autonooter. Otherwise, it's available in the Dev section of the forum.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dach:
I am posting this hoping it helps someone with the same problem.

I had my HTC Surround resetting itself several times a day, finding it without all the configuration (people, email, carrier hubs on the home screen, etc.) and reporting the storage as 15.73 MB instead of the 16 GB. In the last part of the problem, my phone did not recognized the storage at all, no matter what I did.

Windows Phone 7 uses the internal SD (yes, our Surrounds and most, if not all, of the HTC 7 devices have Internal SDs but covered under the phone case http://www.anandtech.com/show/4015/h...cket-boombox/8) as part of the Windows file system, it does not differentiate between on chip storage and SD storate, WP7 treat the storage as a big one, storing all kind of OS configuration (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2450831/en-us) on it (SD card). Hence when the SD problem presents, the phone resets because the OS can not continue to run due to data missed, and also this is why all the configuration (email, hotmail, also the carrier personalizations, etc.) is lost, because is stored on the SD that is not recognized by that time.

An excerpt from the link above:

The phone’s operating system integrates the SD card with the phone:

•When you start your phone for the first time.

•When your phone is reset to its original factory settings. This is called a factory reset. This is a task that is typically only performed by OEMs or MOs.

When the operating system integrates the SD card with your phone:

1.It reformats the SD card.

2.It creates a single file system that spans the internal storage and the SD card.

3.It locks the card to the phone with an automatically generated key.

So we conclude that the problem is caused by the internal SD not correctly integrated with WP7. In my case a factory reset did not help, no matter what I did the phone did not recognized the card, reporting storage as 15.73 MB. The solution involved opening the phone (I did not care to void warranty, anyway I am far from the States where I bought the phone and can not get a new one. But for you, your best bet is to get a new one, and make a factory reset as soon as you use it FOR THE FIRST TIME, and let the phone finish to do its thing). I had to open the phone, get the SD out of the phone, turn the phone on, do a factory reset, turn off the phone, insert the SD card in the phone, turn on the phone and finally do a factory reset. This procedure had WP7 reintegrating properly the SD. My phone now is rock solid, it has not reseted even once.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MrAndrewAu:
Thanks for sharing this. I had this very exact same issue with my developer device, a Samsung Taylor. I even made a thread in the App Hub Forum and concluded that the SD was corrupted. Unfortunately for me, the SD could not be removed as it was super-glued in place.

Another member on that forum also experienced this, so it seems like this can be potentially become a very bad problem.

Try format it with panasonic formatter and reinstall WP7, but doubt that'll work.

In all, a sure way to get WP7 running is to buy a new sd card. People are saying sandisk class 2 cards work best with WP7 so I recommend those.

I tried the 8.1 rom yesterday and it worked until this morning when I switch on, it stays on the start screen only. Can somebody help me to solve this problem or I need to send back to Samsung.

Maybe you should write what Samsung device you're using.

And 8.1 ROM - does not make any sense here.

If you want people to help you - your question should be like this:

Sheesh these are slow downloads :P

I assume they are getting hit pretty hard. Anyways, hooray! Can't wait to use these CM7 has been one of the greatest ROMs for me so far
[Droid Incredible Android Development] godsmacked4653:
Isn't the only major issue the 720p on the camcorder and the lack of hardware acceleration?

I haven't been using the earlier builds, but I'm downloading the nightly right now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Xylite:
Thanks for getting the discussion started, PonsAsinorem. I think this thread sounds like a good idea, especially if you'll be dedicated to update information (ROM status, fixes, scripts, known issues, etc). Based on your involvement in the crackflasher thread, I'd bet you'll do a good job ;-)

My vote is to keep this thread going
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lafester:
camcorder appears to be broken again.

i believe slayher said hardware acceleration works fine.

some 3d games and apps are simply not compatible with gingerbread.

--edit-- well you can see we have some conflicting information.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nedrubwerd:
I remember seeing that we wouldn't have stable hardware acceleration until the official Gingerbread update for the Nexus One comes out, so that we have the correct drivers. I could have missed something, though.

Downloaded fast, using phone, flashed with rom manager. Havent tried camcorder yet, but no issues so far.

I did a complete wipe before flashing build 0 and can confirm no working camcorder and my wifi problem of not switching APs appears to be persistent as well.

So now i have to download this using RM? I have never done that before, where does it store them on the sdcard?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lafester:
there is a link in the op if you don't want to use rom manager.

i have never had any luck with that app. (currently it thinks i have an evo).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Deleted member 2776902:
You can still download them manually from the link in the OP. The nightlies require rom manager premium too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
You can download them off the site I posted in the OP. In ROM Manager (for nightlies, a premium license is required) it stores them at /sdcard/clockwork/...

I don't remember off the top of my head, and Root Explorer hasn't downloaded yet.

Sorry, there is no telling what is wrong. That app is a huge beta product right now and I am guessing it has not been updated to work with android 2.3 I would say contact the Dev of Superpower first, and find out if he plans to make it GB compatible.

Mine used to do the black screen thing when I was running Evervolv. The buttons would light the same way but the screen stayed black. I always blamed it on launcher pro, but I'm uncertain if that was the issue or not.

On other topics, is the wifi AP switch problem fixed in nightly #2 or do you have to flash slayhers beta kernel to fix it?

Posting this on Cyanogen's forums and on XDA to hopefully get some visibility. Hoping the developers see this and find it useful. I was on #12 up until tonight, flashed to 15, then flashed back to 14. Here's some bugs/issues I've noticed. Some of these are not bugs, but just personal preferences.

#12:

-wifi disconnects after a long sleep, reconnects about a minute after wake. Syncing while sleeping seems to be done over 3G.

-same bugs as #14 below

#14:

-no option to enable battery icon percentage (liked this in 6.1.0), I'm told this will eventually be added

-kernel minimum speed is 245mhz (liked having 128mhz in CM 6.1.0), I"m told this is for performance issues and likely isn't coming back

-force closes when selecting some calendar events either from the calendar app, or the LPP calendar widget, not sure if CM can fix this or if it's a Google issue

-mail app has a bug when inputting a signature in landscape mode, it's not saved, have to input in portrait (or input in landscape, copy it, go to portrait, paste, and save), same as above, might be a Google issue

#15:

-phone force closes, cannot make/receive calls, verified around the net

-cannot mount USB mass storage, phone freezes completely, requires battery removal to fix

Do you have any idea why my phone might get super laggy on RedBread (and another downloaded theme) but not on the ones than came with Theme Chooser?

I paid for the theme without seeing what it was to support your work, but it looks great and I would love to try and use it but it is too laggy!

(Also, could you make one with a black background on the widgets in the notification bar?)

These cm7 nightlies, (along with mattyg's battery) have finally convinced me to ditch sense. With a few thematic tweaks here and there I love it. I don't know what it is about cm7/gingerbread, but I like it a lot more than cm6.

I'm a rom-whore, and I'm damn proud of it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HoochieCoo:
Seems like people are still bringing up WiFi issues. Personally, I don't think I am having any issues. But... I still maintain that since CM7, the signal strength seems weaker. For instance, I can be standing 15 feet away, and have 2 bars. Generally, it seems to be (or show) ~1 bar less than a Sense ROM. Sometimes I feel like I could say the same thing about the 3g signal... but other days not... so I am chalking that up to Verizon at this point.

For a bit, I thought it was disconnecting when the phone was asleep, but switched from using Channel 1 on the router to 11, and it seems to have stopped. For whatever reason, ch 1 seems to reconnect a lot.

As far as the 128 sleep speed... I would suspect once the kernel developers get a handle on things, we'll start seeing more options. Seems logical it would be that way. Still early yet.

I found an eMail app on the Market... Enhanced EMail. It is the 2.3 client where the guy has been fixing things. I'm tempted to report bugs to him and buy the app. I have other issues with the stock eMail app... but need ActiveSync.
