I absolutely recommend remapping the volume buttons. Softkeys is nice, but kind of a pain sometimes. For instance, when I would view pictures in the XDA APP, I would have to restart the app instead of backing out, for some reason softkeys wouldnt let me back out of the picture viewer. It's just much easier to have the menu and back buttons always available than rely on software. I installed volume volume control if I need to adjust volume for some reason.
[Nook Color General] buffnutz1:
Is there an app that puts volume in the status bar that anyone knows of?
[Nook Color General] cutterjohn:
Yup... I've got a Pandigital Novel(white v2) w/custom fw and it'd be essentially useless w/o re-mapping the vol keys to menu and back along with soft-keys in the notification bar...

NC has one up on the WPDN though, it has the n home key plus the 2 vol keys and volume can be controlled through setting or a quick-settings app anyways or by adding soft-keys... still no substitue for physical keys or capacitive screen keys though, unfortunately... (spoilt by gtab with the full complement...)

Love my remapped buttons and i saved the originals so i can go back anytime i wish.
[Nook Color General] jasoraso:
I am on the stock 1.1 rooted and have mapped my volume buttons - I have tried the other ones, and I MUCH prefer having hard buttons.

I downloaded a volume app "Volume Master Free". It has about 5 different volume controls, but I only use the system volume and the media volume controls.

I use Zeam as home screen; and I put a shortcut to Volume Master on the bottom right of my Zeam shortcut bar. It works very well. I do need to go to the home screen to change volume; but I can tap on the notification bar and toggle mute, so that works for me.
[Nook Color General] hazridi:
Yes, it makes a huge difference on the stock rom and froyo -- though honeycomb's soft buttons eliminate the need to do so.
[Nook Color General] nrune:
Can't recommend remapping the keys enough. On froyo it makes a huge difference in functionality on. The device, life is a pain without it.
[Nook Color General] TweetyBear:
how do you remap the vol buttons? i would love to do it

[Nook Color General] TJNooker:
I remapped.

I also recommend remapping your volume buttons. It's handy having tactile buttons for the back and menu functions.

What really sold me on remapping was that I didn't like to have a Softkeys button floating on the home screen. Without a floating button, I would have to double tap the hardware "N" button to bring up the Softkeys interface, then hit "menu" or "back." If I have to double tap a hardware button to use "menu" or "back," I might as well just remap those functions to the volume buttons and use a single tap.
[Nook Color General] TweetyBear:
thanks. will attempt over the weekend
[Nook Color General] amp3d:
can remapping the volume buttons be done when running cm7 nightlies off SD ?

I didn't find a definitive answer

I ran with the CM7 softkeys, Button Savior, remapped volume keys and I just finally settled on zMooth.

Both of my HTC EVO have the exact same software information

2.2

Base Band 2.15.00.11.19

Build 3.70.651.1

Software 3.70.651.1

PRI 1.90_003

PRL 60675

I did a profile update on both and yet one EVO gets 1 to 2 MBPS and the other gets .1 or less on multiple different speed tests.

What could be the issue. Only difference in the EVOs is one is white and the other is black. (insert racial joke here)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
There are multiple threads about this already. There are MANY people experiencing the same thing.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonyandrews:
I have seen many posts about this same issue, but have not seen any real solutions. The whole proxy thing, does not seem to hurt or help any issues with my slow speed. I am not surprised that it seems so slow, I have had the same issue with sprint on the Treo 700WX, the HTC mogul, the HTC TP2, the Palm Pre, and now on the HTC Evo.....

I am a firm believer that the issue is Sprint, and not my devices. I am on the road often, and work in varied locations around Southern California and beyond. I have noticed the closer I get to Mexico (and in Mexico) the speed and call clarity is much better. The closer you get to Los Angeles, or anything associated with it, its all downhill. I suppose it could be a capacity issue?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
No one has an explanation that I know of. My 3G speeds started to suck hard in November and many other members did, too. Not too long ago, I was at a friend's house and a guy there had an Epic. We both connected to 4G and ran the SpeedTest app several times standing right next to each other, and he was consistently getting DL speeds that were 3-4 times faster than mine.

My 3G speeds used to be 1.6 Mbps down and now I'm lucky to reach 0.3 Mbps.

I came across a thread today where someone posted instructions to alter the proxy port and address on the phone and it increases speeds, but I haven't been able to test it yet because the building I work in is a dead zone for all carriers so my data speeds here are horrible regardless. Hopefully it helps, because I'm really getting fed up with the slow network issue.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Migital Warfare:
I know the API for the Epic's wimax is different than that of the Evo, which is why the option in Tasker doesn't work. What I'd like to know is if there is any other work around to get Tasker to control wimax. Maybe some way to do with with variables or something?

I live in Providence, RI, and we have 4G covering most of the city, but I work in Mass. and frequently forget to turn my 4G on when coming into the city, and off when leaving. I'd REALLY like for this to work so that I can actually take advantage of the network that I'm forced to pay for anyway.

Alternatively, does anyone know when this is going to be fixed in Tasker? I downloaded the update that came out a couple weeks ago, but this issue wasn't addressed apparently.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Where about in mass do you work. The only 4g coverage we get so far is the boston area

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Migital Warfare:
I work in New Bedford. There's no 4G in the area, which is part of the problem. If there were 4G where I work, I wouldn't need to worry about turning it on and off all the time. Since Providence is really the only place I frequent that has 4G coverage, I'd like it to only be turned on when I'm in the Providence area.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dulanic:
I work in Providence live in Fall River and I kind of gave up on the whole tasker 4G thing. But then again even when in Providence I can't use 4G due to the ****ty building penetration.

Ok, now that I have rooted my phone...

No, not asking what ROM, Kernel, Theme, or Apps I should get...

I'm asking about what security holes I have opened up and need to secured. I've tried searching through some known items, but can not find any information.

Are there any defaults or security holes that I need to go in and change now that root has exposed them? Like the SSH exposure you get when jail-breaking an iPhone

Thanks...

Good question, IMO. I don't have an answer for you, but I'm interested to see what the more proficient Androiders have to say.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
As far as I know, none. Unless you try flashing it to a differnt carrier, like metro pcs or verizon, like others have, you just need to worry about the meid and esn number. Also you need to unroot if you had to take it to Sprint for any service issues.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n00bhackin:
Mainly just trying to find out if there are any security holes that need to be plugged after rooting. I don't have any plans on porting over to another carrier, and hopefully I won't have any reason to bring my phone on for service.

Even though I haven't found any posts on the topic, I didn't want to assume there aren't any.

Hey guys, im currently running bonsai rom. I've tried justcabout every other froyo rom and always reverted back to 2.1, hated all of the issues on them, and they felt laggy to me. Bonsai has been amazing, camera issues aside.

So, I've never actually tried truly epic rom, and people have some really good things to say about it in the development thread. Which one of the two do you prefer? Why?
[Epic 4G General] ilostmypistons:
Tried them both but prefer midnights latest its really sweet
[Epic 4G General] air2k57:
Isn't midnights themed though?
[Epic 4G General] riceknight:
No, I believe he includes a separate theme zip now. Midnight is based completely on Bonsai though with only a few tweaks like taking out touchwiz launcher so not really too different.

Truly Epic has a nice launcher, but I prefer Bonsai with ADW EX or launcherpro personally.
[Epic 4G General] Xerexis:
I have tried most, if not all of the Rom's and always revert back to Midnight Rom. His latest is just a base Rom with a folder of add ins you can install separate. I like it because it is minimal and appears to have the best battery life.

Just my opinion though and as we all know: Opinions are like A#$ holes we all have them and most of them stink.
[Epic 4G General] ilostmypistons:
I just like the midnight attitude...... ya get what ya need ya add what ya want and it all works good really good cant imagine the alleged upcoming update being better than this
[Epic 4G General] rgregg504:
I have been running truly epic 1.5. No issues yet. I do recommend the clean install I tried the other way and and the phone force closed everything like a batsh*t crazy maniac. But all in all nice Rom. Very snappy no issues yet. The only issue I had with bonzai was video recording...it was like it couldn't keep up with motion..haven't tried video on this yet I'll get back to ya on that one.

EDIT: Still very slight lag on video but much better.
[Epic 4G General] shook187:
Turly Epic for a silky smooth experience!!!! Not a very popular rom here but over at android central its the most popular one and for good reason.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Ya need to try Go Launcher EX it murders Launcher and Adw.Its faster has more fetures,lighter,looks better and has integrigated task killer.

I was a big fan of Launcher Pro but the dude is so slow with updates that it made me try GO Launcher and now I cant see myself using anything else.Devs should include it in their roms.
[Epic 4G General] cconwing:
Wow I was just about to comment and say people should try Go Launcher Ex because its awesome...i felt the same way, I loved launcher pro but decided to try go launcher and Idk if I'm going to ever go back...the integrated task killer is pretty awesome I must say and it is much snappier.
[Epic 4G General] air2k57:
tried truly epic,Facebook would force close and I didn't like the fact that stock calculator was replaced, but it was good. Went back to bonsai for now. I think that I am going to go back to 2.1 stock to get ota, just seems as if all roms are sort of buggy, but I know that all the Devs do an amazing job and work hard.
[Epic 4G General] TheDub:
They are all buggy because they are all based off the buggy DK28 release. :)

In all seriousness I'd recommend Bonsai... It's very snappy and relatively bug free. You may as well wait though.. all the 2.2 roms will be refreshed in a few days and likely be brand new machines with the EB13 heart.
[Epic 4G General] air2k57:
Yea, but I liked 2.2 stuff and gingerbread theme. Aside fromcfew annoyances, I really liked custom 2.2 stuff. 2.1 stock is definitely more stable, went back to it for now for the ota. I'm probably going to install bonsai once it gets updated though, I really don't like that we will be getting Sprint id, hopefully bonsai wont have it.
[Epic 4G General] macphatkat:
Bonsai with Go Launcher and SetCPU

That's my combo and I love it.

Bonsai is already snappy, but with SetCPU I'm getting another 10% boost in my benchmark scores. Battery life is suffering, but by habit, I charge my phone at home, work and car, so I always have enough juice anyway.

Thanks for posting your opinions. I'm new to the scene and had the same dilemma on which roms to play around with.
[Droid 2 Global General] kaltman:
So, i've been searching the forums for an hour or so, trying to find a definitive answer for d2g...

I want to completely get rid of the system slider lock when using a pattern lock & widget locker

when i use mylock or no lock, widget locker crashes, and doesn't work anymore.

rooted/fission

any ideas?

just gonna poke at this again, still looking for a solution, not turning anything up
[Droid 2 Global General] JorgeNava:
no lock works on my d2g just fine, try a reinstall? are you using the widget?

as far as im aware, i dont think anything exists to get rid of slide lock AND still have a pattern lock. at least thats what i read when i had my droid incredible.

It would be great to just hit the power button and enter pattern to unlock, but i've yet to find anything that works

ps i am also running fission

yea, exactly... that's where i'm at... not even sure if anyone is even working on this

Hey guys,

I am using Oxygen 2.0 - RC7 which supports a2sd ext2 / ext3. (Gingerbread)

I have gone through the tutorial and formatted my sdcard and did all that stuff. in the normal file explorer my SDcard is shown also to be smaller but my internal memory didn't "grow". what have i forgottn? i created this partitions and stuff, I only heard something about "tables" but I have never done that / don't know what it is.

can someone help me?

what i basically want: have a bigger internal storage

(HTC Desire)
[Android Software Development] Ideedeequeuedee:
You've done nothing wrong, everything is working as intended.

Your internal memory wont grow, it will still be 134mb~. But with the ext partition this will shrink less hard then normal.

ie. a 20mb app will only take off 1-3mb of the internal storage.

Hope this clears a couple of things up :)

[Epic 4G General] Milkman00:
I own it:

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Vehicle-Navigation-Sprint/dp/B004EV3YF4
[Epic 4G General] othan1:
Probably the same as the home dock. A tiny piece of paper that states it won't be 100% functional until 2.2 is released.

So how well does that suction stay on the window? I've never bought one with suction (have a generic that attaches to the vent) and am always afraid it will just fall off during driving due to the weight and bouncing of the phone.
[Epic 4G General] gremlyn1:
I have the car dock, and it works as expected, minus the fact that the audio-out isn't yet functional. That's not really the reason I bought it though. I wanted something to put the phone in while driving and using navigation, etc that was specifically made to fit this phone. It also seems to stay suctioned to the window quite well.
[Epic 4G General] jerbeck24:
I have it too and the suction has never failed on me. I've only put it up once and I got it at Christmas. It does have that tiny paper that says the audio out will only work once the Epic gets 2.2. Other than that, I think it's great.
[Epic 4G General] J3ff:
People who paid anything more than 24 bucks (Retail is 40, 24 on amazon) should really be pissed!

I bought both car and desk dock, thinking "oh well, 2.2 will be here soon, I can use it exactly how I want!"

How do I want to use it?

- At home, I want to drop my phone into my deskdock have it charge AND PLAY AUDIO THROUGH THE AUDIO OUT to my stereo, via the slacker APP and the Subsonic AP.

- In the car I want the same exact thing.

*bluetooth audio streaming is NOT acceptable imo
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
its a great dock minus the fact that 1/2 the reason i wanted it was to listen to music in the car.

i was hoping that it would stop the battery drain i get from usign my phone as a GPS too but it just slows it =\
[Epic 4G General] djcslice:
I have the car dock and I just put the phone in backwards and you can plug the power and audio cable directly into the phone. I also bought it for the purpose of holding it in place when I was driving and using navigation. Its a great dock, especially for 25, what I paid.
[Epic 4G General] sleebus.jones:
I bought one, and it works great, except for the audio port like the other owners have mentioned. It'll be nice once that gets enabled, but somehow I'll manage to soldier on through life until it happens. </sarcasm> I'm just happy as a dead pig in the sun that it charges and switches to car mode when I stick it in there. Makes it so nice for running the maps app and wayze. Speakerphone mode is really nice too.
[Epic 4G General] J3ff:
all you need is a 2.1 amp charger - I can use GPS / 4g/ Stream music and leave the screen always on with full brightness, it wont discharge at all. Infact it charges pretty quickly!

I found it on amazon..

Firstly this is the wrong section, the fact you put [Q] in the title should have lead you to think maybe this belongs in the Q&A Section?

That said looks to me like you haven't got an S-Off hboot. I'm gonna presume you are running the new 2708 hboot and spl as most are now and that hboot doesn't allow fastboot flashing of recovery. Go to THIS thread and read the first post. Your answer awaits you there, even if you're on another hboot then you'll still find what you need there. Or you could of course use adb to install the new recovery or even terminal emulator, you can find all details in each respective recovery's threads.

ok. first off.

I just switched from dj05 voodoo with a sc rom, to sc2.3 voodoo eb01.

I made a back up in rom manager of dj05, and a tibu back up, but tibu, for some reason, didn't save to my sd. so I tried to go back to the dj05 back up, but it wouldn't boot. just got stuck on the samsung screen.

so I pushed dj05 back, tried to restore the back up, and still got stuck on the samsung screen. any ideas how to get this back?

ok. next. on sc2.3 eb01, I had neongt theme, decided I wanted revolution, so I downloaded revolution. put on sd, flashed, and boot looped. flashed neon gt again, it booted, and now I have both themes. dialer/menus from revolution, drop down from neon, etc. how would I go about getting just revolution?

lol ok next. so I kinda don't like how things are going with my current setup. would you recommend going with aosp v.7? and if so, would I push the eb01 voodoo kernel through odin then flash the rom through cwm?

thanks in advance for any help!

jordan
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Won't boot back to dj05 because you probably didn't do an odin complete back to djo5. I'm betting you just tried flashing the rom ontop of your eb01 modem.

Your theme/rom issues are stemming from a lack of wiping data more then likely before flashing over the new rom/themes.

If you're running voodoo, try super clean 2.4 w/ voodoo...really nice and fast.
