Are there any apps I can use to get push notifications with majority of apps, also is there an app to give me pop up notifications as well?

Sent from the good ole' Epic
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerChameleon:
What kinda apps are you looking for?

i personally don't like pop ups.

however if you want an sms/mms that has pop up get handcent it has a great pop up with a reply box!

:)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
yep. for sms/mms popups, Handcent, or if you want to have popups with just the stock messaging app, Sms Popup works good. both are available in the market. there are apps in the market to give you Gmail and K9 mail popup notifications.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanc13:
I know that handcent and all that is good for sms, I'm really looking more into apps like facebook and things of that sort

Huh,

I don't know how to explain my problem exactly, but I do try my very best :)

I'm using my Desire w/ Leedroid 2.3d and the standard-email program.

Since I am using this email program, the alert tone appears every time the phone syncs the mails. The tone doesn't stop until I open the email program and check the new mails.

As you might guess...this is quite annoying ^^ So, can anybody give me a hint to solve this problem?

Thanks... :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Check the notification settings in the email app. You could change the sound to see if it is a real bad problem.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _nibbler:
Huh...I already changed the sound several times, but the problem still occurs :\
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Make no mistake, I do not condone the use of Rom Manager due to our neglect.

Still, it has its purposes. I have fixed the "Fix Permissions" function. Do NOT install the market version!

Install this one instead. It may not work with Rom Manager Premium license. (I can live with that).

This has only been tested with superclean.

RomManager.apk

Fr just the script (run via adb shell or terminal emulator)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2056318/update-template/fxpms.zip

Install via clockwork, then run fxpms. Requires superuser permissions.
[Fascinate Android Development] dalrym05:
Ok stpiid question. Do I have to do all of this or just install the apk?
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Either or, but not both. That would be silly.
[Fascinate Android Development] dalrym05:
That's what I thought. Thanks. And this will work in cwm also?
[Fascinate Android Development] AlgorithmX:
Thanks, does this include the battstat fix as well?
[Fascinate Android Development] dalrym05:
Can't get the apk to install.
[Fascinate Android Development] vlucchetti:
Other forums show that you need to uninstall the market ROM Manager before installing this one. That's how I did, uninstall, then install through root explorer or super manager.
[Fascinate Android Development] bdubbin:
Thanks man works!
[Fascinate Android Development] kamileon:
Worked like a charm, installed through astro. Great work as always adrynalyne.

[Fascinate Android Development] Holliday:
Anyone running Froyo had issues with it. It would run in 1 second which obviously is too fast. It was not fixing any permissions. Just acting like it was.
[Fascinate Android Development] dalrym05:
Will it still not work in clockworkmod? I flashed the zip and still couldn't run it. Runs in Rom manager t though
[Fascinate Android Development] ivorycruncher:
Sorry for being ignorant, but exactly what permissions is the permissions fix supposed to fix, and why would I need to apply such a fix?

Edit: Nevermind, was having a hard time finding this answer on Google, but I finally found it. Looks like it just simply reapplies all proper permissions to system app files to fix FC errors and such, presumably in the event that you are messing with the system files and the permissions get messed up on them. I'm guessing I'll never need this function unless I start manually changing system files around or something.
[Fascinate Android Development] skynet11:
Such as, for example, deleting batterystats.bin

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate Android Development] ivorycruncher:
Doubtful, seeing as it's kind of hard to change permissions on something you've deleted. ;)

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate Android Development] shorto85:
I'm curious about this as well.

Thanks for all of the hard work so far!
[Fascinate Android Development] skynet11:
Wouldn't deleting any system file like that affect the permissions on other apps, making it necessary to fix the permissions every time? Besides, the system rebuilds batterystats.bin from scratch immediately after it's been deleted.

Another Fascinating post by my XDA App
[Fascinate Android Development] ivorycruncher:
How on earth would deleting one file affect permissions on other files? That just doesn't happen. As for the file getting recreated, the OS should be smart enough to set the correct permissions on it.

The only time I can see this being necessary is if things don't work right after installing a new rom, or if you manually change apks or other system files. I've messed around with system files before, and never once had to fix any permissions, probably because I always took care to set the correct permissions manually when doing so.

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Guys,

Stop arguing.

This also scans /data permissions.

So, while its true that if you dont touch system files its a non-issue, thats not always the case with /data, which is a rw set directory and modified/used daily.

So that should end the debate, right there.
[Fascinate Android Development] ivorycruncher:
Um, okay, I didn't see any argument going on here, just a discussion, but whatever. I didn't know that it also affected the /data partition, so thank you for enlightening me on that, but I still haven't ever had the need to fix any permissions on my phone. I was just curious as to exactly what type of activity could mess up the permissions, that's all. Anyway, on to other things.

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Its entirely possible that I misunderstood you two earlier, but I think both of you had misconceptions and I was merely trying to clear that up.

Installing apps can make permissions screwy. Pretty much anything modifying something on the OS.

That said, I've never had to use fix permissions, on anything. On the other hand, I've seen where it has saved people a lot of grief. So, as always, ymmv.

[Nexus S General] xmRipper:
Hello,

I had been using HTC HD2 until I bought a Nexus S. I can definitely say that the ROM Development section of SNS is very quiet. There are just a few roms.

I actually miss the activity in HD2 roms section, there were new roms every day. Most of them was themed CM / stock roms.

(there were also MIUI roms, Sense roms etc but nvm that)

I don't know how to theme everything so I prefer pre-themed roms.

What do you think about this. Don't we need pre-themed roms?

I'm just a bit bored with stock CM7 =) I need different tastes.

Edit:

Btw, I tried the themes in that topic, but I couldn't get the same results as in screenshots. I just don't know. So that's why I prefer pre-themed roms.
[Nexus S General] RaQHoliday:
Quite frankly, there aren't anywhere near as many people who own the NS; with the AT&T version rumored to release soon, that could change... and if the Verizon/Sprint versions ever surface it would DEFINITELY change; but for the time being, so long as there are just a few of us out there with the device, you can expect developments to be rather slow.
[Nexus S General] irishrally:
I agree that when the ATT model comes out things might change. With that said I'm fairly happy with the level of support for the NS after only been released for 2 months. Also, I'm more interested in ROM and kernel developers (and super awesome voodoo developer) than theme developers.

Maybe you could find a theme in the N1 or other section you like and ask the developer to port that to the NS.

Have you tried the theme chooser app with CM7? Sonny's themes are very nice too. I'm sure someone can help you get them to work (if those were the themes to which you were referring).
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
The HTC HD2 launched in November of 2009 in Europe, December of 2009 in Hong Kong, and March of 2010 in the US. The Nexus S launched on December 16, 2010 in the US and December 22nd, 2010 in the UK. Those are the only two countries it is currently officially available in. That means that as of yesterday this phone had two months of availability in the US and come next Tuesday the same will be true of the UK. The difference in availability to userbase alone makes it pretty clear why there would be a difference. If you wanted a device that had a lot of available ROMs buying a brand new device that hasn't even launched globally was the wrong choice.
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
ROM Development != ROM Theming. ROM development is actually implementing code into the ROM rather than just making the ROM look nice.

And besides, the look of Gingerbread is pretty amazing.

My personal philosophy is that, if theres a lack of something.. you could always step up and make ROMs yourself. If you don't want to, then there isn't room for someone to be complaining about the lack of development.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
get on it...

i cant wait to try one of your roms/themes/themed roms :eek:
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
There aren't enough devices out there yet. I may jump on when the ATT version comes out. I'm dying to play around with the nexus s kernel and editing that battery driver to try a few things.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
2 months vs. Over a year.

Just sayin
[Nexus S General] mhaedo:
OP...What you refer to as ROM development I call useless clutter. I'm extremely glad the Nexus S development subforum has not yet been invaded by a bunch of fools with winzip and a pirated copy of Photoshop. Let the developers develop. All that other crap belongs in Themes and Apps, for it sure isn't development by any stretch of the word.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
AMEN!

Quantity != Quality.

The NS is still good enough for me as stock (kernel, rom) after two months. I'm not bored with it, and I don't miss anything (except a numbered battery meter) from a themed rom. I switched to Launcher Pro, but that's about it.

We've discussed this in multiple threads here already anyways. We've got koush, cyanogen, bionix, team whisky, morfic, supercurio all contributing. These are the superstars and I'd much rather have their support than dozens of others who slap a theme on some rom they "borrowed" from someone else and then call it their own.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
that's exactly why Themes & Icons & stuff, should stay in the Theme & App section, and ROMs stays stock, then people can put whatever skin they want on top

not everyone likes the same thing

Not trying to flame but that seems pointless.

PS - i think it is completely asinine to say that "where is froyo" is a bad question or off limits when along with questions about flawed gps or random shutdowns is probably the most pertinent and pressing question especially given that it had been promised by the end of 2010....my 2 cents.

[Captivate General] oldskooldawgz:
i was taught in school that there are no bad questions just bad answers. Is no answer a bad answer?
[Captivate General] bames:
they should give us a more comprehensive list of acceptable questions.

and since they will only answer acceptable questions and generally know what the acceptable questions are why don't they just release it as a FAQ.

[Captivate General] phlunkie:
my questions

"Thank you for opening a line of communication to your user base. My questions are,

Does Samsung see a value in the work that the devs have done on Xda?

Does this value help or hurt our chances of future updates to the phones?

Now that multiple threads by SamsungJohn have been open and closed due to obvious and just flaming (flaming could have been toned down), Does samsung actually see the anger of its customer base and are they willing to actually do anything about it. This site has a lot more pull when it comes to word of mouth than what they perceive.

why are you only wanting non technical questions that we can get the answers to by reading our manuals, or searching on the internet"

Hopefully i won't get flagged/banned or whatever.

Please please please login to your myWireless account on AT&T and make sure that you still have the unlimited data plan.

My salesman on Sunday said he was able to keep it on my account, however today I got a text that said my "data pay per use" has exceeded $20. I logged into my account, and my unlimited data was gone! I called 611, spoke with customer care.

At first, customer care was understanding, but took the line that said "any time you make changes to your account, you will lose the unlimited data option". It wasn't until I told her that the salesman said I could keep it, and I specifically asked her to open a case, that she took action. Once I mentioned "open a case" to get unlimited data restored, she changed her tune. In my opinion, I think they do that because most people won't press the issue. Since I stood firm, she accessed my account and verified I had unlimited data on my last bill, and submitted a case to get it returned to my account.

Now I'm waiting for the case to be resolved.

Check for yourself, make sure you still have it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
They tried to tell me me they had to takevmy unlimited data away when I bought the inspire. I wad told before when I got the captivate if I never got rid of it I would be grandfathers and keep it.

I've been with ATT for 8-9 years, and told them if they were taking unlimited data, cancel my service right now.

So they fixed it, alls good now, haven't actually checked the bill though
[HTC Inspire 4G] d00mz:
My salesman told me I had it still too. It wasn't until I got that text about data-pay-per-use that I logged in and checked. You really should login and make sure you still have it.

If you don't call 611, push the issue of getting "a case" opened to get that restored to your line. Customer Care told me that they are no longer allowed to escalate a case to restore unlimited data UNLESS it is on the previous bill.
[HTC Inspire 4G] blackviper71:
Just checked my account and I'm still on unlimited data. Thanks for the heads up however.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mantrius:
I had the same problem doing my upgrade over the phone. I just asked to speak to a supervisor and told her to add the SOC code for the unlimited 4G plan since it already exists in their system. She gave me some fluff about it probably not working, but that she'd try. It worked just fine and my account still showed unlimited data. Long story short, get a supervisor and tell them to add the unlimited 4g SOC code.
[HTC Inspire 4G] slapnutz:
I work for at&t, there is no issue what so ever with keeping the unlimited data. If you stay with a smartphone, you can keep your unlimited smartphone data if you already have it. if anyone tells you different, they are wrong!

People who work for ATT - I lost my unlimited data and have since "had a case open with the department that reviews the issue and is capable of putting it back on" - this according to the supervisor I spoke with after I found out I had lost it. I was told I'd hear back from someone by 2/25. He also hinted towards the fact that since a case was open it was very unlikely that they wouldn't put it back. You guys know about this process? What are the chances I'm going to get mine back?
