[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] AnalogXDA:
Yeah, I've thought about using third party lockscreens from the market, but currently I'm on a kind of simplification kick--removing bloatware and Sense, going back to the vanilla lockscreen, and so on, in the hopes of making my device a little leaner and meaner when it comes to battery life (so far it seems to be working). So I'm still looking for a way to make the vanilla lockscreen play nice with the rest of the phone, but I really don't care for the vanilla clock all that much. If the earlier poster still has the remapped Sense clock, I would like to at least try it.
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] prboy1969:
Still like LokBotPro, I store it on my SD card so it doesn't use much internal memory space. Plus crazy choices.
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] :
use your favorite rooted explorer to place it in /system/app/

if you use root explorer it needs to have permissions equal to all the rest of the apps.

you can even use terminal emulator or adb shell to cp the app from /sdcard/ to /system/app/.

then if you put it in the adb folder on your computer, you can adb push DeskClock.apk /system/app/

hope that gets you workin!

Hi to all.

This post because I've always experienced some lags with any keybord ( IME, Swift, Gingerbread, etc )

After the installation the speed was very high, but after few days there were lags here and there.

Any advice? Is this behaviour common to you too?

Now I'm running Froyd Villain 1.6.2 ...

Thank you

Pich
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ExMM:
Many people from what I have read they have this problem with gingerbread, I am one of them..

Beside the fact that our Hero hardware is old, we just need to wait until a better and stable release will be available..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Pich78:
Thank you for your answer.

Yer Our hardware is old ... :-(

Anyway I have a Froyo Rom, and the problem was present in Android 2.1 and 1.6 too...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nellisere:
It happens to me aswell, it annoys me alot, even overclocked to 710Mhz, obviously its not as laggy as 528Mhz but still laggy, so i think i am going to get a different phone like an iPhone :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ExMM:
I found out that also depends on the rom that you flash, everyone phone is different.

When I used to have Android 2.2 with Froydvillain, many people in the forum said that it was awesome and that the battery life was amazing, for me was not, and it was terribly laggy.

After I switched to floyo, a new Hero was born, It was flawless and the performance outstanding, I didn't experienced any lag or issue and I kept it for many weeks...

So as far as I know, for me it could also depend on what you flash sometimes, I guess is just simple as that..:)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] idlerpt:
i use the handcent sms ...with the tasty froyo 1.2, and is also quite laggy...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] theunforgivenmetal:
being a rom flash addict, i have tried most of the roms posted here. only overclocking seems to help slightly, though the lag wasnt that bad on the original sense rom

[Desire HD General] a33a:
Good thread, helpful and insightful.

I am going to download all those applications as I too have been experiencing Slow GPS lock.

Just 1 possible solution for you, have you tried to upgrade your radio? This may sometimes help solve GPS problems.
[Desire HD General] giegi_dc:
No, I didn't upgrade my radio.

I'd like to do it but i'm very hesitant to mess around with my phone like this.

P.S. Let me know if you had some improvements.
[Desire HD General] CitizenLee:
Updated radio can make a MASSIVE difference. One of the best things you can do to your phone if you're having any kind of GPS / 3G / Wifi issues.

Go to:

Menu > Settings > About Phone > Software Info

Where it says Baseband Version, this is your radio version.
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
For me the most annoything that happens with GPS is that when playing a music and using at the same time an offline map gps program, when a voice or some ding dong sound happens, the music played stops and resumes after those gps sounds ends...

I think this is due to Android sys... even WinMobile it's better on this...
[Desire HD General] ulgaming:
Thanks for the tips. :) My GPS is locking on very quickly now and even inside buildings. :D I used clocksync + GPS status + Fasterfix. Fixing to around 8 - 9 satellites indoors and 12/12 outdoors.
[Desire HD General] atifhasan86:
Done.

Great.

It Works!!!!

initially it would take me a good minute or two to acquire a precise location INDOORS, now it does it in 10-15 secs!!!!!!

i was already using GPS Status, this is with FasterFix.

Thanks.
[Desire HD General] MrKaon:
so strange I never had problem with GPS, always fixes in less than 10 second and never loses as well.

I use iGO and it never let me down.
[Desire HD General] magnus66:
I had problem with gps-lock from the beginning.

Tried the link above "gps-lock without dataconnection"

Now it locks within seconds :)
[Desire HD General] Basil3:
Personally, I've had no problem with gps for apps such as Google navigation where the screen stays on.

It's a different story, however, for apps like cardio trainer where the phone loses gps lock when the screen is off. I understand this is a known issue with Android 2.2 and has been fixed for 2.3+. I don't know if anyone else has problems with this.
[Desire HD General] kotty:
but mine desire didnt work? first when take out the sim card ,reset and download data ..it work like charm..lock around 10 sec..then put sim card back it took age cant find satelite to lock..:(

anyone know what wrong?
[Desire HD General] danrobz:
On my DHD, indoors, GPS sucks badly.. apps such as "aroundme" its pretty useless, just hangs finding a signal. but outdoors when I use navigation, etc it works okay. I dont use GPS that much anyway, so cant complain. It is a tad annoying when your indoors and cant find stuff though.
[Desire HD General] mats-norway:
I've had really big problems with my GPS.

Could not get a lock so I rooted my phone and upgraded the radio. Changed the gps.conf file and reset A-GPS settings and tried GPS without a dataconnection. None of the suggested things above did work, so I downgraded the radio to stock and unrooted my phone and sent it to a repair center.

Hopefully they will fix it.

I have a Hero (root) and a Desire (stock) and they get a lock on within seconds and works flawless even indoors.

I guess HTC has a lot of faulty GPS modules in their Desire HD mobiles, but not all are using GPS so therefore we only hear about some of the problems.
[Desire HD General] HasC:
Trying the Nexus one fix as in the first post, after taking SIM out, I do not get any GPS signals on GPS Status, if I put SIM back in I get fixes but GPS unusable as it keeps losing connection whilst in journey. The steps I have taken so far are as follows:

* Take your SIM out of the Nexus One

* Power on the device

* Turn WiFi on

* Turn GPS on

* Open application: GPS Status (ver 3.4)

* Go into its Settings menu

* Click on GPS and Sensors

* Click Manage A-GPS state

* Click Reset

* Click Manage A-GPS state again

* Click Download [You'll see a message telling you that a data connection is needed, ignore it]

* Now put your phone on a stable, straight surface in order to enable the phone to get a lock, within GPS Status. This time, you’ll see your phone get the lock way faster than before.

Any help will be appreciated.
[Desire HD General] onesolo:
quoting my self...

There's some developments about this issue...

Or one use the nice HTC Gps Software (at least the version that cames with gingerbread) or use the iGO Amigo.

I tried the iGO Amigo and I finally can listen to music at same time when the voice from iGo speaks!!! There's no interruptions at all like on the majority of GPS softwares that I tried on my DHD (don't know how it works on another devices)

I think that this issue is something that is only developers fault cause initially I thought it was due android design, maybe it was only possible to play something only from one app at a time. (ie. not play two things from two different apps simultaneous) but I figure that after all that is possible.

Bad developers!!!! :mad:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
I dont think it is ever going to come to the SGS officially... the only way is for someone to port it from another device...

We dont even have Gingerbread yet.... so Honeycomb is going to be a long way away....

sorry for my bad english lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] benpaddlejones:

I know there are some widgets which even work on motorola phones and show battery in the increments of 1% but they usually drain battery and sometims you're not on the desktop e.g when you're watching a movie...you need to check up the battery. So is there any app or a way to have the battery percentage in increments of 1% on the notification bar for motorola?

Thanks !
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzysmallthings:
So my power button on my Nexus One works 1 out of every 1000 tries. Which makes getting a boot loop and having to go to the white hboot screen a royal PITA.

I don't need or want the white hboot screen. I would LOVE to be able to hold down the trackball and pop the battery in and out and have it just power on into clockworkmod.

Is there a way to do this? Thanks in advance!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Know-Fear:
Unfortunately I don't think there is a way. There are certain buttons you have to push in order to get to certain areas of the unit. From a powered on state, of course there is the use of quick boot or some variation. But from a powered off state, you must have a functioning power button to be able to navigate through the HBOOT section. It would be great to be able to remap the hardware function buttons to allow the vol-d or vol-u buttons to act as navigation buttons in certain cases, but I think that is nearly impossible.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hollow.Droid:
You can't go directly to recovery but you can go to the bootloader. From there you should be able to follow this guide to skip the recovery altogether. This should enable you to be able to flash your individual files created from a Nandroid backup and then reboot into it. Alternatively you can use the fastboot command:

Fastboot boot recovery.img (Where recovery.img is a copy of Clockwork mod recovery in your /tools folder. However do remember this is a one time boot, therefore you'll need to do this following any bootloop).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzysmallthings:
Thanks for the reply. I'm thinking the trackball is the perfect candidate seems how it is totally useless in hboot. Sometimes I push it just hoping my prayers have been answered but to no avail.

I am not a programmer only an end user but I think if its possible a few options would be to remap the power button on hboot as you mentioned or to make an option on ROM's where a person could choose to boot directly to clockwork.

Although maybe this would be an option for clockworkmod itself.

Anyway someday someone will figure it out. I just hope that day comes before my power button stops working all-together.

The strangest part is that the power button seems to only have this problem in hboot. If I want to use it to turn off the screen or turn it on again its fine ... But my trackball can do the same ... To sum up ... My trackball only acts like a power button when I don't need it to. The irony.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzysmallthings:
Thanks for the link. I will have a look and see how it works. ^^
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
At any point that the device is running, you can issue the adb reboot recovery command via a USB connection to reboot directly into recovery without having to press any buttons on the device. You can do this even while the device is bootlooping (as long as it has gotten beyond the static X image).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
In rom manger it has the option to boot into recovery.

Quickboot does the same. Elegos rom updater does it.

Hi

I know that with DLNA you are able to stream media files only to DLNA compatible devices such as TVs and sound systems. What I am looking for is a way to view my Desire Z screen on my TV, in ANY way. Maybe an app that use DLNA features or something.

I mean, something?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahmanxda:
You could install a VNC server on your phone ("droid vnc server" from the marker free or paid doesn't matter) and install some sort of vnc client on your computer. by doing that you can display your phones screen on your computer.

Then you can connect your computer to your tv.

there might be easier ways that i am not aware of but this the only thing that i can think of.

[Touch HD General] sabestian:
Hello, I tried searching but came up with nothing... I suddenly lost all loudspeaker sounds. It just stopped working. I can feel vibrations when there is a call coming (but no sound), I can hear the caller through the speaker but not when the speakerphone is on. They can hear me well. I cannot hear music played (unless it is through the headphones).

I did not instal anything or did drop the phone. Does it have to be hardware? Should I first try something else before I take the device apart?
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
what rom/ radio rom are you running on your device?

did the sound stop while using it or was it something you suddenly realized and you couldn't recall the exact moment, you last heard a sound. because in that case, there might have been a slight software change, you didn't notice.

are you sure, the headphone socket is clean? if something shortens the socket, it might disable the speaker without being displayed as a connected headphone.

have you tried the usual (soft reset, battery in/out, volume changes, different mediaplayers, incoming/outgoing calls)?

do you have any sound related software installed, like call recorders or the magictweaks package or did you manipulate sound related registry values, with hdtweak or similar apps?

there are dozens of possibilities that could suddenly stop the sound from working, one of which might be a hardware issue. however, my money is on a completely random reason in combination with an older radio, and by upgrading the radio and/or hard resetting it will go away
[Touch HD General] sabestian:
Thanks for your input. I do have a lot of tweaking software installed but it all was tweaked about 2 years ago and never touched since then. The ROM is Topix 3.1.2 WWE.

With regards to the headphone socket, I haven't used it for months. But now, just for testing, I have put and took out the headphone jack about zilion times to check if it is OK. I think, whatever would be stuck in there would loosen out but I cannot be sure of that.

"The usual" that you mentioned have all been tried, the only thing I did not do was a hard reset.

And the speakerphone stopped working with 'NoData' turned on, so it couldn't auto-update on it's own. I just realized that it is not ringing and then started tracing the problem.

I would really like to avoid hard reseting and/or upgrading ROM... I have the device configured exactly to suit my needs and I am very picky in this subject (lots of apps working together in harmony). But I may have no choice.... Is there a way of upgrading and then restoring all the software that is on the device now back on it? Will the Sprite backup do the trick with an upgraded ROM installed or will it all clash?
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
you don't need to upgrade the OS rom itself, only the radio. that's why i wrote "upgrading the radio and/or hard reset", because it includes 3 options:

1. just a hard reset might resolve the problem, if it is a pure software issue

2. a radio update might fix the sound, because the radio handles everything, windows mobile needs to address the hardware (sound, camera, wireless communications...). however, performing a radio update without hard reset might screw up wi-fi connections and bluetooth partnerships, that you might have set up and if your sound works again and your bluetooth and wi-fi wont, it does not really improve your situation.

3. therefor, performing a radio update, followed by a hard reset might be your best option.

i can understand, that a hard reset for some people, is something, you'd only wanna do, if there is absolutely no other options, because setting up the device again can take a lot of time, however, using a program like sprite/spb/resco backup usually creates full backups, that save too much unwanted information, so probably, after a full backup/restore, your problem will return as well. but you can give it a try:

create a full backup, perform a hard reset, test the sound (call yourself, play an mp3 file), then restore your full backup and see, whether the sound still works. however, you should also backup your pimdata in a pimbackup or through outlook or myphone, in case the backup does not work properly.
[Touch HD General] sabestian:
Thanks again. My Radio is 1.17.25.09, which is pretty fresh.

I could still backup, hard reset and check if the sound appeared. If not, I can reflash my Topix ROM and take the device apart. Or upgrade to one of the new ROMs and then take it apart :)
