After updating to the official Froyo release, I now have a sweet cut and paste feature that works incredibly well for selecting text and then acting on it.

Is this a Samsung-specific thing? Or is it in all Froyos? Whatever it is, it makes life w/o a trackball much much better!

Okay, so I just received my replacement after convincing tmobile to swap my phone after 3 dead pixels and burn in on the notificatio bar. Anyone has any suggestions on how to prevent this from happening again?

I'll start.

1. Use the hide notification bar option in launcher pro.

Hello everyone,

I went recently to a device and more specifically to a wp7 7 omnia,

I created this video concept on the management of a multitasking wp7 keeping the style of the loose tiles without too many effects, such as MS has created a minimalist.

It works like this:

holding down the "back" button for 1-2 seconds, under a bar will appear with your open applications represented with the same tiles, dragging down the application quits, while clicking on it opens the'applicazione selected.

What do you think?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barbbachello:
I like the idea of dragging down to close the program
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
Just very nice concept, yes.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cruzer1:
Thats very good!

Multitasking (or should I say 'appswitching') on iOS is, imo, worse than that on Android and winmo.

On iOS, hate how you have to first double click the home button, then hold on one of the background-running apps on the taskbar until it gives you the option to close it. I liked iOS before that implememntation, because the 'taskbar' just easily gets filled up with apps.

On Winmo, once you tap the taskbar drop down menu and the list of background running apps appear, you have an x right next to it already. Alot more efficient.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Niiceg:
Nice Concept :] I would like that too :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digger1985:
Too much like iOS. I am sure MS can come up with the nicer way.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Niiceg:
Well, It is good, it doesn't interrupt your work and it's easy to use.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nok_fusion:
it would be perfect if M$ do it like This way :) propose it to Redmond company :D
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lekki:
Really? M$? 1995 called and want their meme back!!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pillsburydoughman:
As someone in the UI design field, non obvious actions are actually bad design. Holding down a button for 2 seconds is not obvious, a simpler more intuitive solution would be to have an arrow (or icon) at the bottom to do the same.

Like the bars at the bottom tho, and the dragging down thing (also non obvious)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathtrap3000:
so holding down the home button to voice command is also bad design???

You would prefer more icons on screen to do what a hard button can accomplish?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spippo:
thank you all!

If you give the other suggestions I can make another video concept and maybe send it to Microsoft like an idea! What do you think?;)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbk21:
I looks very nice, but the icons are too big.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayonical:
holding down the start key for voice controls isn't obvious to users as well...unless they mistakingly do it, or read the booklet! Its fine! Humans are smarter than you think.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeeam:
Seriously, this is almost exactly how iOS's appswitching works. And it's not a bad thing.

But probably Microsoft wouldn't use that layout for obviously reasons.

Android switcher sux. I would like to see something as easy as iOS. This one is nice, though smaller icons would be better
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jefis:
What a nonsense. Don't forget in WP7 navigation looks like this:

- Open software1

- Navigate to software page1.

- Navigate to software page2.

- Press Win

- Open software2

- Navigate to software page1.

So, after last step, let's assume i switch app to software1, then press back 2 times, and after that if i press back one more time, where i will go?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeeam:
In Android, if you press 'Back' several times it just takes you to Home launcher. Do the same here.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salvy.c.83:
Good

my congratulations to spippo, this is the first video that I see on a WP7 multitaskink...

I hope that Microsoft may look and begin to think on it!!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingjovius:
I love your idea but i think, that multi tasking should look like the Zune HD's pin/history section where you swipe to the right and that pane come up.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
This works in WebOS and Blackberry Tablet OS because those systems use a gesture to "minimize" the application to a card that can be swiped up to be closed. WP7 doesn't do this. Apps are full screen. If I'm in Twitter, 50 results down in my feed; you want me to go all the way to the top so that I can drag the program down to close it? How exactly will I drag this program down to close it? What's wrong with an X in the upper right corner to close it, or simply backing out of it?

I think pre-emptive Multitasking has its usage, especially for stock applications. But I think the need for them in third party applications is limited to some pretty obvious use cases and Microsoft should be uber strict when it comes to allowing applications to do it.

Tombstoning + Push Notifications should be the de facto standard for third party applications, IMO.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
Microsoft can just make a tips Live Tile that cycles through things similar to the Widget Android has, and lists some tips, perhaps with picture or video examples when you click on it to open the application. There's nothing wrong with a little online help, right?

Dragging down the notification bar in Android isn't that obvious, either. Everything doesn't have to be obvious, otherwise you would not have any freaking space on the screen to display anything else.

Everyone has to learn how to use the system they choose when they get a device.

TL;DR: You have no point.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fost4real:
very cool concept. like what others are saying the icons are too big.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiwas:

After achieving temp root via visionary, it seems to continue running, and severely taxing the battery. Anyone else having this issue?

[EVO Shift 4G General] StringerE:
Yes, I had the same experience. When I looked at what was using the battery, RATC (rageagainstthecage) was just behind Display. I didn't try to uninstall/reinstall or anything, though. I just switched to Z4 and have been running it since.

Z4 gives me problems sometimes after reboot, though. I occasionally have to try 2-3 times before the temp root takes. I may try switching back to Visionary at some point to see if I see the same battery issue.
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
Thank you for confirming this. Without temp root via visionary my battery lasts all day. With visionary, about 3-4 hours.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:
have you tried killing visionary after it gains root for you?
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
I have not. Honestly, I removed all of the bloatware and have not had much of a reason for temp root. I am at work, and forgot my charger, and thus am hesitant to test it now, as I need my phone to occupy me on the subway ride home. I will test this tonight and report back with the results.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:
are you seeing visionary use battery in task killer/autokiller, etc? once it runs on my phone and provides root, it doesn't run anymore. it may just be it is getting stuck on something, and continously running, which would obviously drain the battery.

Let us know what you find.
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
In settings -> about phone -> battery, visionary is taking up more battery then anything else.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:
I would force stop it. it shouldn't be using any CPU once it achieves root.
[EVO Shift 4G General] wardfan220:
Agreed, once it has root it shouldn't be running, or has no reason to be running more specifically.
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
Check it out for yourselves, visionary will restart itself after being killed. Autorun manager also lists it as a self restarter.
[EVO Shift 4G General] wardfan220:
It doesn't restart on my phone, that's weird. BTW, I'm not calling you a liar, lol, just haven't had it myself.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:
Visionary is set to run at startup for me and runs and provides root and is never heard from again, until reboot.

Where did you get Visionary from? What settings do you have setup? Have you tried uninstalled and reinstalling?
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
I downloaded a different version then uninstalled and reinstalled. Everything seems to be working now. Thanks.
[EVO Shift 4G General] wardfan220:
Great to know.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:

[General Questions and Answers] glitchster:
This is my first post. I'm not sure if this has been posted before but this seems the only place I can post at the moment.

I've been reading a lot about developing & running Android apps on the NOOKcolor device. I've downloaded the auto-nooter routine and the Android SDK. I told myself I wouldn't mess with Android on my NOOK. But, the more I learn about it the more tempted I am to open its' OS up.

I shyly approach this with mixed feelings. Because I don't want to turn this device into a "Boat Anchor" or "Brick".

I will have to make an Android OS image on a micro-SD card in order to get Android 2.2 to function. However, I'm not clear on the smallest amount of memory that can be used for the micro-SD card. I've read 2GB or 8GB.

So, can anyone tell me the size needed for the micro-SD?

Thanks for your time in reading this!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Raver27:
Hi,I've had my g2 for lil more then a month and when I first got it,it seemed the white and grey colors on the screen were a little dingy(not bright).At least not as bright as my old mytouch 3g,but being everything else was fantastic I shrugged it off and enjoyed my new phone,now my sister in law got one two weeks ago and I helped her learn android,lol but I noticed her screen seemed a bit brighter all around,so I decided to go to a few tmobiles and see there demos and all look a bit brighter then mine:( so my question? Has anyone else noticed this?or had this kind of issue? And what kind of warranty replacement experience didyou have?fixen to call T-Mobile later tonight? Just want some opinions before I do..sorry for the long post:)
[G2 and Desire Z General] oldblue910:
This might be a dumb question but are your brightness settings set to auto? If so, turn "auto" off, turn your brightness up to 100% and see if that makes a notable improvement. I'm definitely not a fan of auto brightness on the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Raver27:
Yes I have,I got T-Mobile to ship me a replacement phone,hopefully it works and is in good condition or I will send it right back...

[Vibrant General] nranson:
I apologize if this is the wrong forum, but I didn't want to post in the development section.

I realize that the devs are hard at work on getting a variety of things up and going right now: Gingerbread, Cyanogen, Sense, etc. However, I was wondering if it might at all be possible to port Windows Phone 7 in the same way that the HD2 got it from the HD7. The Focus is reminiscent (hardware-wise) of the Captivate. I tried to search to avoid asking a question that's been asked a million times, but I didn't turn anything up. I realize that probably sounds like an outrageous question coming from a guy who's never spent 2 minutes coding in his life, but I figured why not.

If this has been covered already, feel free to delete.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
Actually the only similar hardware is the super amoled display. The cpu is a whole different cpu and so is the rest if the hardware.
[Vibrant General] nranson:
Ah. I guess I should have done some more research. All of the reviews I read basically called it a Captivate with WP7 installed. To the wasteland this thread goes!

Thanks for clarifying. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bassboxv50:
Hi, recently i have installed one of the latest android builds on my HTC HD2 mobile phone, i love it, works perfect and use it everyday rather than windows mobile.

One of the main reasons i turned my phone into an android device was the excitement in seeing people over youtube etc running games from gameloft on their htc hd2 devices such as N.O.V.A and Modern Combat etc FPS games with really cool graphics.

However, i am facing one big problem.

Every single game i have downloaded made for android from gameloft, either downloaded or purchased directly from their site, all seem to install fine, but then everytime i go to run the game, it opens and straight away says it needs to download additional data to run the game. Everytime it does this and finishes downloading, i tap to run the games and the game crashed back to the home screen.

I have tested about 8 android games now from them and all 8 have done the same thing, asked for additional data and then crashes when tryin to run the game.

I see they run fine on htc desire etc running android but im really miffed off and absolutely confused why my htc hd2 running froyo 2.2 android build aint able to play these games. Even after following correct instruction as to placing the game in the correct folder on sd card, install in airplace mode etc blah blah.

Really wanna get N.O.V.A and Modern Combat: Sandstorm working on my mobile.

Please help :(

Willing to make a reasonable donation to whoever can help get these working for me, I dont know if i need a specific android build or maybe some sort of android patch or game validator or some tool im missing????

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Neurotica:
I might be wrong here, but my guess is that the GPU doesn't work the same way as it would natively if it were on any other native Android device.

I have a Droid 2 Global and the HD2 running AA on SD. Simple games requiring some extra GPU power(Flick Kick for example), play clean, no lag, no distortion on my Droid 2 Global but have poor laggy graphics on the HD2.

If you really want to play those games, you should just get a native Android phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shad0wboss:
nah, the GPU isn't the problem. It has adreno 200 which is same as HTC desire and it runs all the games fine. It can be the problem of ram. How did you install android on it? Is it running windows mobile in the background? if yes, then lack of ram is likely to be your problem and that's why you get a crash...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Neurotica:
I do realize that the GPU is good enough to power those games, but are the resources for the GPU allocated the same way that they would if Android was being run on an Android Native device?

I have American Android(03/20/11) installed on SD and I show a good 190MB of RAM if not more. I am currently download the data files of Modern Combat 2 HD to my HD2 and will post my results back.

Now that I think about it, I do have SpeedX 3D that runs fine. Could it be the OP's current setup that is preventing something from working fine? Are you installing directly to SD? Move back to phone and leave data to SD. Then try again...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Neurotica:
I just installed Modern Combat 2 HD from Gameloft and it works just fine. Rendering of GFX, everything.

There's most likely something in your configuration(ROM, Apps installed, etc...) that is causing this issue.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Theonew:
My HD2 plays all the games I want. I installed asphalt 5 and Skies of Glory last week and they work perfectly. Have you tried a new firmware? I'm running Gingerbread 2.3.1.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vijaykanth:
LOL! Same problem on my Galaxy S. Only Assassin's Creed works Nicely.

The rest just crash to the main screen after downloading the additional data! Running Android 2.3.3... :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Neurotica:
If you bought the games they won't crash since they are all up to date and very compatible with GB 2.3.3. If you are using warez, that is one good reason why they crash.

Gameloft also connects to verify authenticity. If you game isn't very authentic, that is another reason.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] guardzero:
Which android version did you buy/DL to be able to run correctly on the HD2? I'm thinking about buying a couple games from gameloft but since I'm running Android on the HD2 I don't know which version of the game to get...maybe the Desire HD version? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mkamodang:
most gameloft games can be played on my HD2

:) I am using android 2.3.3 Hyperdroid GBX v.11 (installed on phone, not sd) and the list of gameloft games having in my phone are;

1. asphalt 5 and 6 (both running smoothly)

2. Eternal legacy (running smoothly)

3. Novo (U need to change the control. By default, it is set to gamepad/or joystick mode...to other controls given there) otherwise the game crashes.

4. Real Football 2011

5. Hero of Sparta HD

6. Sand storm 2 (In couldnt install it, it force closed during verification process. But I have read ppl successfully installing in HD2 android and playing). I will try again and report later.

Phone: (sd card) I used app2sd partition and sd extn.

tools that I used on phone: Temp+CPU pro for increasing my phone processor, sd card speed increase app., Speed boost to clean cache and kill application.

I would suggest you to install OS on your phone (Nand) as to me, it is faster and can handle application and games faster. :)
