[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tehpriest:
Is there a widget out there that will display my facebook news, followed twitter feed, SMS and email all in one preferably in scrollable message boxes like the Samsung "Feeds and Updates"?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] DaRkMyk:
I've been looking for that too...

the closest to Feeds and Updates is LauncherPro Plus' Friends Widget, but I feel that it is too slow.. and same goes for the launcher, it freezes a lot of times.

I'm currently using Colorize widget + ADWLauncher Ex. so far it works well. It does not have a combined FB & Twitter feature, but it is smooth a bit customizable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tehpriest:
I am using Executive assistant (paid) which does do the job but purely in a text based way. The actual look is very plain and enterprise like but I would like something more pleasant to look at.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Deleted member 2616728:
This past week I installed Android 2.2 on my 1024 HTC HD2 (T-Mobile US) using the Video Tutorial by Tech Burrow and FAQs. I used the Android NAND ROM linked under the video. Everything is working ok and I've been reading the forum and debugging for the past few days...

*this is the first time I've done any type of software modification for phones

Today I clicked on the "NAND Bible" post and the "CleanDROID v2.55" is looking like a better option since I don't use Facebook and all that other stuff that comes preinstalled. I'd be happy to dump all the bells and whistles for something cleaner and faster, with more disk space. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10675863

On the Wiki page for HD2 it says "Try not to flash Custom ROMs unless they say that they're definitely compatible with the 1024LEO, or You'll be sorry!"

My Questions:

1) Is this ROM safe for my phone?

2) If so, is it worth it to perform this upgrade? I'm not familiar with all the technical specs, and don't want to "fix something that ain't broke."

3) If so, for install can I just follow #3 of the Guide [For Newbs]?

Many thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Note as said by a members siggy

If you don't want to void your warranty, you're visiting the wrong site.

I don't know if it is safe as I can't understand the coding to linux. but if you can, his source should be stated and you can check it to see if it is safe.

worth the upgrade isn't something we can tell you for we know not of your current status. E.g what works and what doesn't work for you.

I don't know what is step 3 of the guide. But if you know how to install, then install.

Note your questions really don't even need a thread for, these could be done by searching the forums through the search button or even manually. So next time, do a little thinking for yourself first, it helps your brain from rotting. No harsh feelings.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Deleted member 2616728:
Hmm I've already installed a ROM so not really worried about voiding my warranty at this point.. more worried about bricking my phone..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Well if you had done even more reading, you'd know HSPL is a software prevention of bricking your device. So the only way to brick your device now is through hardware.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Rotary Parts:
Hey mate the best rom for you if you like sense is the core droid rom look in nand builds. if your looking for gingerbread without sense i would say ultimate droid. but please read before flashing through dft or flashing through clock work mod. and only way your bricking the phone is if you flash wrong radio or rom to it. both of the roms i stated are fine for tmous hd2's have fun modding your hd2 and welcome to xda :)

[G Tablet General] familiarstranger:
again, no pressure, but i'd put my money on getting to play with a (albeit very alpha) port by this weekend. :cool:
[G Tablet General] neo4uo:
Just looked at the dump and was soooo sad, the other 60 megs that is missing, that the original poster said someone would probably get tomorrow contains most the files the devs need to develop a rom. I looked at the files and the files needed by the guys at notioninkhacks.com are not in that dump from what I can see. So I think everyone is jumping the gun a little. The reason that he probably couldn't dump the other files is because he wasn't rooted. I feel that this was the guy that had a xoom and had minimal technical skillz and was walked thru on how to do the dump on these forum boards. I think that is why none of the devs have jumped in and said anything yet...or it could be they are working to tighten up some loose ends with the dump he provided. All and all the main files that are needed are not included in the dump this guy made available. Please correct me if I am wrong, I hope that I am wrong.
[G Tablet General] lalomean2:
I don't think this is a race of who gets it first. Its a race to who gets it stable first.
[G Tablet General] tekrhino:
I think you're right, it appears this is only the system image, the boot image is also required to cook a rom.
[G Tablet General] atakapa:
Your assessment is spot on. Need boot.img, which this is not.

Lots of stuff to dig through, but not complete, ........yet.

How do I change the message on the screen that says....this phone belongs to....I am running vegan rom

Yep, but it is the first step
[G Tablet General] adub007:
You were wrong with 1 thing i dont have minimal im no genius but i know my stuff. But you are correct sir the devices isn't rooted so now i couldn't get the boot.img but this is a step and still provides some use to the devs with more experience when it comes to this
[G Tablet General] xmr405o:
Hey thanks. Its good to learn something. I have no clue what's required to cook or port a ROM, this is actually helpful to the misinformed members.

[G Tablet General] neo4uo:
I just went to the original thread and saw that the Mod removed all the links to the partial dumps due to DMCA infringement. I would just let this whole dump thing die for now if I were you guys. I appreciate that you got a partial dump so we could look at some things. I would just leave everything else up to the Devs. I am sure they have a way to get the full files and besides the AOSP source code will be out shortly. I just don't want to see anyone get in any trouble :).

[G Tablet General] MikeTheSith200:
i know im a noob but how come no one tried an sdk preview port just for fun like they did on the nook color?
[G Tablet General] familiarstranger:
just my guess is that it wasnt deemed worth the effort. SDK ports especially a preview SDK don't help in the effort of bringing an actual ROM to fruition and don't give users anything they cant see in the SDK already.

Here's a link to the boot.img (rooted) and tegra 2 kernel source (for honeycomb):

[G Tablet General] shadowhawk2020:
I think it is because it was for different hardware...
[G Tablet General] Prof-KOS:
I'm fairly sure I read that it was down to the different processors and without support for Tegra2. I'd rather a proper AOSP Rom than an SDK port anyway. Fun to play with, but not for my everyday use.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jebise101:
We all know the issue with wired headsets, being in canada i was going nuts that i could not find any compatible headset at the local best buy/futureshop that where not above 100 dollars. I didn't want to order online or order the adapter for 20 bucks from kvconect.

That search is finally over i found JABRA RHYTHM HEADSET at the source for 35 bucks. I say that is a good deal (better then 20 dollars for the dam adapter) The headphones are iphone headphones but come with a small stylish adapter for nokia/samsung/sony phones.

It dose stick out but its not to bad, the headphomnes are very good too. I still kida prefer my skullcandy mainly coz they fit better in my ears and because the jabra ones are the ones that go around the neck (left side is short and right is very long).

I will use them till they break and go back to skullcandy. Pretty much paid for the adapter :P so i can use any iphone headphones.

PS for an extra 10 bucks you get a 2 year warranty that includes 2 replacements so in the end they cost like 17 bucks a pair.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] DaRkMyk:
The microphone and answer button works?

If you want a cheap adapter, buy this: US $0.99

yes everything works, answer/end call. play/pause music double tab to go to next track. Also plugged in my brothers official iphone headset and music/answer everything worked without issue, just the volume buttons did not work.

The adapter is very small so it dose not make it stick out like a sore thumb and its all gold plated.

[Desire HD General] kiwiboy_1978:
heya, just threw Android Revolution on yesterday (LOVING it!), and got all my apps back, had launcher pro plus running alongside Sense (but wasn't actually using Sense, and hadn't chosen a default as yet..), today for sh*ts and giggles I chose Sense for a compare, and now I cannot get back to Launcher!

any ideas? i have tried reinstalling launcher, no good. I have tried closing Sense process down, no good. It just restarts.

When im hitting the home button I'm not getting the option to choose Launcher Pro or Sense anymore.

Any ideas? Really want Launcher Pro back as its the shiz.
[Desire HD General] deadcookie:
Don't know if the sense process is listed since I use cyanogen mod. Try menu, settings, manage apps, look for sense , select it, and clear data

Hi, I'm going to buy the Samsung Galaxy Ace, but I know that samsung deleted all froyo live wallpaper and put only one. I'm looking for the grass live wallpaper, there's hope to install it on the phone without flashing? Can someone extract grasslivewallpaper apk??? It's very important, thanks to all
[Android Themes] protomanez:
In short, there is no such apk. The grass live wallpaper is part of a batch of lwps in one .apk.
[Android Themes] fabiox88:
And if I install the livewallpaper.apk I add automatically the default live wallpaper like the grass one?
[Android Themes] K900:
You should try, but if there already is livewallpapers.apk, then you'll have to replace it (and lose those that came with your phone)

I Just tried.. It replaces the original .apk

Theres not a way other than that that i know of.

And so with the replace I can put the default live wallpaper?
[Atrix 4G General] tbong777:
Since switching from ATT to an ATT resellerI found I am no longer obligated to ATT and the reseller is offering us free phones with a 2 year commitment. They use ATT towers andin fact in this county they own most of the towers ATT uses and they sell ATT plans with the same costs and benfitts EXCEPT for the first year they offer 1/2 price data and messaging. Service is exactly the same it is still ATT. No detailed billing, no directline to ATT. in fact ATT does not even register us as customers. We belong to HTC an ATT reseller who bills us but usses ATT brochures (and their free phones cost more than ATT except the iPhone) Captivate still costs $150 with 2 years while $49 everywhere else...which takes the shine of the half price data unless one is getting the iphone,

So since we already have the half price data and messaging until October I think we should wait to get new phones. Thinking of an iPhone 5 for the wife and for me......????????????

I don't see anything that beats the Captivate so far especially the ROM support. The Atrix looks good but who knows what will be out in OCtober and should we instead wait for LTE.

Reading the Atrix threads with great interest though,,,,,,

Thanks everyone
[HTC Inspire 4G] bbrou33:
Is anyone else even having the same problem?
[HTC Inspire 4G] hololight:
Yes you can search, both in the xda app you are using ( but it won't limit to just one section), and also on the website.

As far as pdf files go... it just auto downloads them whenever I click one.

[HTC Inspire 4G] gtg465x:
After downloading them, should be able to open them with the included Adobe Reader app no?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bbrou33:
Well the specific website I'm trying to open the file from opens it in a pop up window rather than downloading. The pop up window comes up however it is just s blank white window. On a pc it's in this window that I can save the pdf file however I can't do that on my inspire. I've had windows mobile smartphones for the past few years and this is my first android device.

Yes, I'm having the same problem with specific websites. I have one that I would love to download pdf's from and I get the blank website just like you. Even switched to Dolphin browser (which I really like generally), and I have the same issue with this particular website. Anyone have a solution?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dunemessiah:
Been searching through the forums for an answer on this, but couldn't seem to find it. Is there way to get the zoom in and zoom out transitions from opening and closing apps on sense? I'm running skyraiders 3.5...

I've seen the custom ones from uncommon theme, but it isn't smooth and I'm just looking for the stock zoom in and zoom out ones.

Any help?? Is this doable or is it not on the sense framework? Thanks!!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
Yes.

Run Launcher Pro.

I started using it about a week ago and haven't turned back. Essentially you are doing away with the Sense Homescreens all-together, but believe me, you won't miss 'em ;)

LP has some pretty sweet home screen to home screen transitions too:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIK9yBlWYt4

In the video you can see the zoom in -zoom out effects when he goes into settings and other apps.

You can speed up *that* effect by using "spare parts" - which is included in SR 3.5

replace /system/etc/mot_ise_imager_cfg.bin with attached file

It is possible to improve the JPG compression of the camera, almost removing the compression. I have already written on the xda-devs, can someone come in handy here.

Take the file / system / etc / mot_ise_imager_cfg.bin, changes everything 41 01 44 07 41 01 XX to 44 07 01 and replace the phone. In sharp ones Jpg files will be 3 times more, about 1,5 Mega and visually clearer, because More information is preserved.

I have some trouble with this patch.

My stock program works well for 2-3 shoots sequently, but then it stuck with half screen with photo and half with grey color...

I noticed with my first vertical photo (turning phone clockwise) but after that it's happened almost every time...

Now I try go back with stock one.

Maybe something in file writing stucked the phone.. Someone have noticed something similar?

Edit: Maybe I've found the bug.. if I take photos in my room, the photo is around 800KB, but with external snapshot (more details, more colors = bigger file) I can reach over 1.4MB... I think the camera is stucking with files over that dimension. Maybe a bit higher compression will help.. I'll try.
