widgetlocker. Nuff said

Id like to see how people are setting up their lockscreen with widgetlocker. I can't use minimalistic text anymore so I need some new ideas. Is there a current thread for this?

Thats a joke right??

Its a whole other screen to fill with crap that you never use or even look at...

I take it this is an android related question........ therefore Im going to refrain from answering because android is the devil's work.......

Just kidding, the answer is widgetlocker......

Hi everybody...

I want to definitely put android on nand on my Kaiser and thus I'm trying many combination of kaisimg.nbh / androidinstall.tgz ...

There was no problem when I found .nbh file for Kaiser... I can modify it according to my panel and keyboard type...

But on this git repository (for example) there are not .nbh for the Kaiser (only for the Vogue)...

I wanted to convert it for Kaiser with hexa, but actually I don't think it will be a correct solution... Are the differences between Kaiser and Vogue only about address ?

So how can I get an nbh file for my kaiser ?

What is the process ? Where can I find the infos to got it ?

Thank you !!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
I'll say this, as I know other people will before me, but please, please use the search option. I had just made a post myself on how to create a .NBH out of a zImage file as I recently just figured it out.

Look up my topic (Building a .NBH file), you'll need two repos bootenv and tinboot, but make sure you do not build a new initrd, as the bootenv repo has not been updated yet with the latest initrd that was posted, so just use the current initrd.lzma file.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mrlinconnu:
I'm sorry but before posting I searched without success...

I saw your thread about building NBH from zImage, but I'm completely noob and I don't know what bootenv and tinboot stand for...

Well, I found this git repo about tinboot but without any doc or tutorial I'm unable to understand what I supposed to do with these files...

I only could guess that I should to use Linux...

I'm completely noob as you can easily guess it...

I want to learn more.. So I need some explanation about the process to get a device kernel (here for the Kaiser) from "scratch"...

Links (with some little explanation ;) or tutos are welcomed...

Thank you again...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mrlinconnu:
Hi,

Could anyone give me the process or some links..

Many thanks..

Can anyone help me ive tryied all the threads and tutorials but i just cant get my dell streak to flash a standard 2.1 rom back on it so i can use my rebel sim.

I keep getting an error code when its trying to install the update.pkg file which ive been trying for the last 5 hours now and havent gotten anywhere.

thanks in advance for the help.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eowyn:
Just an advice, be sure when you are updating/upgrading/downgrading your Streak you are in a relax state of mind and body so that you would not miss a step. I have done it several times going from stock 1.6 to Steve's 2.2 vice versa and It is really is when I am relaxed that I am able to do it without a problem. Following the instructions will lead you where you want to be. If I rememeber it right , search for the modded recovery image for 2.1 it is somewhere in the forum. Yeah, that is what brought me to.2.1 the modded recovery image.

Hello everyone..

Yesterday, I found a new update at the PC companion about the google maps and I downloaded it... After that, my phone gose into endless loop :$

I solved this problem by using the SEUS.. So, now my x10 is at version 2.1

So far so good :)

The problem now is when i try to upgrade it to 2.3 as in this form (which I did it before) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=908791

the BusyBox said that the phone is not rooted.. So, i try to root it again using rootmeand SuperOneClick.. But it doesn't work any more... it only stuck at the "waiting for device" and never end.

Does anyone have any idea to how can i root again the phone?

Also, I noticed that when i start the phone after shunting it down.. I heard a sound like when you shutdown the labtop by force by pressing the button.. "tick" sound :$.. Is it normal thing ?

I found this reply at one of the topics here by petalex99

"Hi! I had the same problem!

1. Search and download from this forum Flashtool 0.2.6

2. Install it.

3. Download from this forum one generic ROM (for exemple X10i_2.1.A.435_GLOBAL-GGL GENERIC 1232-9897 )

4. Put the file in directory Flashtool/firmware

5. Launch X10flashtool.exe

6. DO NOT PUT THE USB CABLE IN THE PHONE

7.From option "flash select the desired ROM

8. Wait the program to begin(a picture will appear)

9. Pressing the back button, insert the usb cable.

10. Wait the flashing to begin and release the back button.

Follow instructions and WAIT around 5 minutes until flashing will complete

11. Send me two words if it helps you! Success!"

It was different that my problem, but i give it a shoot

and it's WORK... and i get 2.3 back ^.^

[Xperia Arc General] rockingx10:
Which one you guys think is better? And would buy?
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
really too early to say... need more real life user experiences to see how they perform in the real world..

That said.. Arc for me - cos it looks proper bo.
[Xperia Arc General] MJ_QaT:
Will have to agree with the ice-man...

It's too early to talk about, however I'm going with the Arc, since my experience with Samsung's software was the worst
[Xperia Arc General] rockingx10:
Make sense since it has 2.3 gingerbread so no one ***** about the update anymore lol. I wish Sony Ericsson was good in update as htc
[Xperia Arc General] MJ_QaT:
HTC has the upper hand since they started first with Android, "HTC Magic G1", so I think they are more experienced than Sony Ericsson, but with time I'm sure SE will catch up hopefully

And you can't stop people from complaining, some complain about 2.4 already :p
[Xperia Arc General] piercewei:
I'll pick Arc for sure. The design is way better than any other competitors. Looking into the released vedio of Arc, the software development capability of SE can be trusted. I think they just need some very little time to catch up.
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
Sony Ericssons new software design makes sure there is as little 'critical' integration as possible, so they can release updates to the OS or their own apps without having to worry too much about other things breaking. Also, developer Arcs running 2.4 have been spotted, so even while the Arc -and- 2.4 aren't out yet, SE is already working on it.

I personally also think Google really likes Sony Ericsson. Sony Ericsson is one of the few companies that decided not to release any phones with Windows Phone 7. Samsung and HTC both are also targeting Windows Phone 7 markets. Because of SE's focus on Android, I think they realize they have to do their absolute best now, and I also think Google is slightly favoring them when it comes to developing for the latest version of Android.
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Is that just your opinion - or have you experience, contacts within SE or Google that have said this to you??
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
Just my thoughts, carefully formed by what I read and see about Google and Sony Ericsson, and further backed up by pure logic ^^
[Xperia Arc General] kitsVA:
I remember reading a while back google approached SE to design their nexus phone and SE was not interested.

Imagine if SE's Arc is actually Nexus S? I think it would have been more successful than the ugly design done by Samsung.
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
I don't even think they tried, to be honest. Sony Ericsson has always tried to differentiate with their very own style of software. Every Sony Ericsson-device ever released has a very distinct Sony Ericsson-feel, if you know what I mean. With a Nexus phone they'd have to completely drop all software changes and just provide the hardware. They couldn't add some Walkman or Cybershot stuff, no BRAVIA engine, nothing, since it'd all have to be stock Android. And that is something Sony Ericsson just doesn't even want to do. (It's also why they ditched Windows Phone 7)
[Xperia Arc General] Genixoid:
Atrix, of course
[Xperia Arc General] xtrmshadow:
Imo : None of them.

If you got a 1ghz Smartphone atm,dont change it.

Why ?

1)Arc has also a 1ghz CPU like the others,yes it will be a bit faster but nothing from the other world.

2)SGS2 and Atrix sound very sexy but they are very expensive.

3)Quad-core Tables coming into August,and mobiles phones a bit later. So you'll gonna have to refresh phone again in 4-6 months =p

I am sticking to the X10 for now,im gonna skip the "Dual-Cores" and wait directly for the quads if i buy a new phone...besides...a mobile phone with quad-core cpu's....where the hell are we going?. Im seeing a Mobile Phones crisis coming...people are not gonna be able to keep up buying phones one after another if they are outdated in less than 5 months...jeesus...

That said,the SGS2 has more than double the power of the Arc,so that tells it all.

Respect.

android is unix based, but the thing is, the apps can run in the background.

The affected apps use the rageagainstthecage exploit to gain root, then run scripts in the background to get specific information (at least that's what they've identified so far). The thing is, anything (from what i originally heard) below 2.2.1 was able to have an app run the rageagainstthecage exploit or exploid exploit ran without any user interference, but apparently it is not pre-gingerbread.

Besides that, carefully checking permissions, keep an eye out for those apps very easily by not allowing apps to get root. I actually downloaded an app a couple of weeks ago that asked for root.... Don't think so buddy. Uninstalled immediately, went to the market, rated it one star and made a comment about it! Thankfully we have a very well made super user app that asks whether you want to grant root privileges every time.

Quite frankly you have to be asking for it, giving root to any app.

I guess i lost interest about mid-december. I dunno why, but for some reason I've had it a year now and i don't bother with new apps or anything, the home screen sort of bores me, and I think i need re-integrating with the android world to find out what apps are good nowadays, what homescreens and i was wondering what ROMs people would recommend i use for revitalising my android experience?

Currently i'm using Floyo 1.1.9.

On my computer i generally use tumblr and twitter a lot, dunno if there's any new (or newly improved) apps out there for either of those, as an addition?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tfn:
Get launcher pro and check out their transition effects http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIK9yBlWYt4

Suggestion

Hi

I too had lost interest in my Hero, and still have to a certain extent.

I found that the Market had lots of apps, but many of them were too big/resource intensive for my lil' old Hero. Also that the memory size is so small on the Hero that I kept getting warnings saying that there was insufficient space for any new apps.

Here are my suggestions:

1. Flash the Elelinux gingerbread ROM v 1.1.1 (or whatever the latest version is). It is very nice, pretty stable and makes a nice change.

2. Play with overclocking apps, you might get a bit more performance out of the Hero

3. Go to the new Market web site. It is very cool. It allows the installation of apps from the web page straight to the phone. Much easier to navigate and mess about with.

That's pretty much it.

Hope this helps

[Captivate General] cbasse:
So, after updating to Froyo (I'm on stock 2.2, not rooted), the News & Weather widget force closes whenever I turn on the phone. Though I'm not 100% certain, I think it has something to do with the fact that I already had this widget on my phone (I sideloaded it a couple of months ago while still on Eclair).

If I uninstall it now, does anyone know where I can find the "new" version that was included in the Froyo upgrade so I can reinstall that and see if it works?

[Atrix 4G General] fl13dl1c3:
So after reading everywhere on the forums how amazing the Atrix's battery life is, I took a look into my phone to see why mine was so shoddy. Turns out that when I type *#*#INFO#*#* on the dialer and go to Battery history, under Sensor usage it says that the Android System has been using it 100% of the time the phone has been on for "Since last unplugged", "Total since boot", and "Total in all time". The thing is, I stopped using auto brightness a few days ago, so I don't know what the problem is. Is anyone else having this problem? Is this typical of the Atrix? My N1 never had this problem. Any suggestions please? Thanks.
[Atrix 4G General] vjoom:
I have the same battery drain issue while the phone is on stanby. I fully charge my battery to 100%, left the wifi on and went to sleep. Woke up and battery is 60%. Try again the next night. 100% battery, turn wifi off and when I woke up the battery was 96%. So from 10pm-5am i lost on 4%. So something is wrong with our wifi sensor.
[Atrix 4G General] fl13dl1c3:
Well leaving wifi on will drain the battery. My issue is the proximity sensor I believe. I factory reset my phone just now and I'm still plagued with the same issue. So I don't believe it's a rogue app. Can anyone look at their battery history and tell me their usage percentage? I'm afraid my problem is a hardware issue now.
[Atrix 4G General] fl13dl1c3:
Can anyone check out their battery info with *#*#INFO#*#* and tell me their Sensor Usage by Android System? I just need to confirm to see if this is a hardware issue for me. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] Blind_Guardian:
I'm not having any battery issues and my sensor usage is 100%.

I leave GPS on, I've been texting on and off, played about half an hour of angry birds, and spent maybe 30 minutes on a call. Started at 8am now it's 1:47pm and my battery is at 60%. I'm not using juice defender or any battery management software.

Hope this helps.

Ah I see, thanks for your input guys. It's just that I haven't had the greatest battery life, I can just see it drop with battery circle widget sometimes :/. Plus, coming from a N1, its sensor usage was low so I thought this was a problem. But this puts my worries to rest, thanks.
