[Optimus One, P500, V General] HibyPrime:
Ok, so after doing all my searching and what not, it seems that for whatever reason the time it takes for the lock screen to time out is tied to the regular screen timeout.

What I mean by this, is when you first hit the sleep/wake button and its on the lock screen, but you don't unlock it, the time it takes for that screen to go to sleep is the same as if you had unlocked it and not used it.

For me at least, this is a major battery life issue. I like to leave the screen timeout at minimum at 5 minutes, because I use my phone's LCD as a flashlight quite often (LGP500 doesn't have a camera flash), and read websites fairly often. Also, I tend to keep my phone in my pocket (who doesn't?), so when walking or moving it's very likely one of the hardware buttons (sleep/wake, home etc.) will be accidentally pressed inside my pocket at least once every short while, basically keeping the screen on permanently.

I'd like to know if anyone has any ideas on how to change this.

Just as a side note, I realize it's possible for rogue apps to keep the screen from timing out, but I've made sure that its not the case here - when the timeout is changed to 15 seconds, the screen turns off at the correct interval.

This a theme for One More Clock (free on market).

To use:

1. Install One More Clock v120_FINAL_FREE.apk

2. Extract the attached HoneycombLook.zip or HoneycombLook_1.1.zip(newer) to the SD card, into the OMC Folder. That's where every theme should have its folder and no other subfolders.

3. Go back to OMC, under "set widget theme" reload the theme catalog and choose the theme, and you're off.

4: If using with LauncherPro, if needed, you can improve performance by going to Preferences on your LauncherPro, select General Settings and check the "Enable Scrollable Widgets" box. OMC will work beautifully after that.

Screenshot from v1.1:

and from 1.0

Here is the real clock on the honeycombSDK:

Use this download instead!

OMC v1.2.2 is now out on the market! The Honeycomb 1.0 theme is now packaged with the APK.

Lots of bugfixes and easier installation!

As of version 1.2.2, LauncherPro users no longer have to select the "Scrollable widgets" switch! Also, all outstanding issues have been fixed. Downloading 1.2.2 is highly recommended.

I love this clock, but for some reason, it's not working for me. Neither version, 1st or 2nd post. :( I have tried everything I can, but I still get "error inflating widget". Anyone know what the problem could be? I'm on a Moto Cliq w/ J_r0dd's official 1.3.1 ROM.

Thanks!
[Android Themes] nemuro:
Well, tell me in steps, what did you do, so I can see what I can do for you.
[Android Themes] ibawanzingee:
I downloaded the widget (.apk file), installed it, created a folder called "OMC". Once the .apk file installation was complete, I long pressed on the homescreen to apply the widget to the screen, and when it appeared, it just said "error inflating widget". I have a Motorola Cliq, am using J_r0dd's the official 1.3.1 ROM and the GO Laucher. However, I've tried the widget with ADW as well, and it doesn't work there, either. The only other problem I've ever had with a widget was w/ "Cool Clock", which doesn't inflate after a reboot, but I just delete the error widget and reapply it and it's fine. This is really odd...

Thanks for the reply. :)
[Android Themes] mothy:
I followed the directions and it just keeps saying theme not found in memory or cache.... whats up any ideas.
[Android Themes] xaffron:
@ibawanzingee: Is your phone Eclair (2.1) or Froyo (2.2)? Let me know as I'm in the process of testing this .apk... I might have a fix for you.

@mothy: After unzipping the files to your /sdcard/OMC folder, did you unmount your SD Card? If you don't unmount your SD Card, OMC (and Android) won't be able to see it.

Post here if you need further help.
[Android Themes] flxdms:
Looks quite good. I'll try to make it fit on my homescreen. o:
[Android Themes] ibawanzingee:
I'm at 2.1 update 1. Thanks for trying to help! :)
[Android Themes] xaffron:
That explains it. I've been hunting down a bug where Eclair crashes but Froyo doesn't. It's an undocumented API call that's causing the issue, no fault of yours.

Give me a few hours and I should be able to belt out a fix.
[Android Themes] ibawanzingee:
Great! I've been dying to try this b/c I love that Honeycomb font!

Thanks very much, xaffron!
[Android Themes] xaffron:
Here, try this one instead.

Remember to unzip OP's zipfile to the OMCThemes folder instead of OMC (this is a change in my apk).

Let me know!
[Android Themes] ibawanzingee:
Nice! Thanks, xaffron! Trying it now! :D

EDIT: Works perfectly, I love it. :D Thanks again! :D

When will the donate version support 2x1? I actually have the donate version already...
[Android Themes] nemuro:
Here it is on light background.
[Android Themes] xaffron:
Once 1.2.0 comes out of beta I'll have the 2x1 (and 3x1, 4x1, likely 2x2 and vertical ones too)support ready. It's already feature-complete, but I'm trying to fix as many bugs as I can + move the themes from XML to JSON before I can release.

A few days, most likely.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nguyendqh:
Can anyone confirm having rooted their MT4G (bought this month) via "Visonary r11+ terminal emulator" method or "Visionary r14 one click root" method?

I just walked through both methods with an XDA member over the phone on his 2nd MT4G and neither method worked.

(His first phone is rooted though)

It still had S=on. And I've used the first method on 5 different phones, never had a problem

Went through the checklist with him and everything and we couldn't get it to work.

USB debugging on. Fast boot off. Root.sh and all that jazz.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Why not just use gfree? You can use it for only S-OFF then flash your eng hboot and apply a temproot. It's a lot easier than any previous methods IMO, and seems less finicky to which devices it will work on.

I have tried applying CyanogenMod, Frankenstein FROYO, VIPERrom (FRoZeN), Mammon's Bonsai4All (I want this one), and MeatRom (found on sdx-developers.com). All of them resulted in the phone going to the Samsung Mobile boot screen, but not getting any further. Even worse than just sitting there some of the roms made my restore attempts not work. Fortunately I found out about Odin flashing, so I managed to get back to a stable state and restore.

A couple of those mentioned ROMs are EXT4 only and must use Clockwork v3. Clockwork being on the v2.5 build may be your issue.

Give the thread a bit more time to sit, I'm sure some more knowledgeable people will follow up with you. :)

Good luck.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chinoto:
Yep, it was all because clockworkmod wasn't up to date. Rom Manager really needs to be updated or fixed because it doesn't provide any way to get the newest version.

//Edit: First try to create backup ONLY of system, without any other option. If this will be work, you probably done same mistake as I did.

Same as me. I didn't do wipe of EXT after creating of ext-part and I had same symptoms. Backup all your data with Titanium Backup, backup data on SDcard, delete ext, create ext2 again, convert ext2 on one, that you want, do wipe of it. Than it should be working (I had).

ext2 is faster, because it haven't journal. But it on some I/O output error is not possible to recover it by itself. Ext3 have journal - is slower, but in case of problem will (can) repair itself. ext4 is better ext3.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmwils3:
Dude, he was asking for HELP, not to be made fun of...

no, back to the question at hand. to root the mytouch 4g, you would need to follow one of the guides to rooting found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866175

that link also has links to all the other things you will need, but Ill provide them here as well for time's sake.

once you do that and have s-off, you will need to flash an alternate recovery to flash a rom. Normally, you would need to install rom manager to do this, then flash clockwork recovery through there, but to install gingerbread, it requires a special version of the recovery which is not officially supported by rom manager yet, so you will need to either install through fastboot (follow the steps provided here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=852905 )

or else follow the instructions provided by TruBlue found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10670110#post10670110

once you have the right recovery installed, youll need to wipe data and caches, and then flash the gingerbread rom of your choice.

As for what apps you will need for all this: ROM Manager, as I mentioned (the premium version if you'd like to take advantage of CM built in nightly build update notifications). Titanium Backup (for backing up all your apps so you dont have to manually redownload them all, and have your app data intact on the new rom), and Root explorer (optional) for a root-enabled file manager.

Any further questions, feel free to send me a PM. Thanks to Tiger013 for compiling the list of everything, grankin for his Root how-to's, and TrueBlueDrew for his how to on install CWM 3x.

So then I called sprint (my carrier) and explained my situation and they said they could help me and I gave them the five different numbers they were trying to call from and they can completely block those numbers and the change will take place within 22-72 hrs so hopefully that'll work and sprint was very nice to me during this
