What a bunch of rubbish. Task killers are an excellent easy to keep your phone running fast and smooth. They also save your battery by not letting tasks run in the background and eat battery unnecessarily.

I hope that wasn't too obvious a troll ...

Task killers suck. They are the Android equivalent of Windows registry cleaners. Sold to you to speed up your system but really they break it.

You had me for a minute there
[Xoom General] SS2006:
I was thinking. Here I am waiting for the wifi xoom since Im not with verizon

and i realized if this

http://galaxytab.samsungmobile.com/

comes out before, im prob getting it

I mean essentially its the SAME tablet, same OS, same processor

but it looks dam sexier (back, grippable), is lighter (even then the ipad 2), has SD Card, same resolution (samsung makes great screens too) and 8MP camera at the back

AND PROBABLY wont have the video watching problem since Samsung goes the extra step to secure codecs (see the galaxy S phones, they run nethin)

Only advantage I see the xoom having is the HDMI out

What do you all think
[Xoom General] ashura3:
It's supposed to be a Google experience device so don't expect Samsung to include codecs for video playback. With that said, the screen will be the deciding factor for me. If it's viewing angles are better than the Xoom's, I'm returning the Xoom and getting the Tab.
[Xoom General] SS2006:
You mean the codecs are only part of Sense :S ?

i never knew, on alot of my custom roms on old galaxy S which wiped out samsung stuff i still had video playback
[Xoom General] ashura3:
Sense is HTC, Samsung is TouchWiz. And yes, because the codecs aren't included within stock Honeycomb, I wouldn't expect the Tab 10.1 to have them. Your past custom roms were built by people who chose to pull the codecs from TouchWiz and include them on top of Android.
[Xoom General] SS2006:
ya that makes sense, like CM

ya i meant touchwiz, apologies
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
I do think the Tab looks better on back, and I like the finish/form of the back as far as gripping the tablet goes.

The one thing I hate is that the GT10.1 is gonna have a proprietary connector to USB, rather than a standard micro USB plug, and of course no HDMI out, but that's not super important to me.

I feel like the Galaxy Tab 10.1 probably has the same issues the Xoom does right now, and they're simply waiting for everything in 3.0 that is initially broken to be fixed before launching. Who knows when that will be though I don't think we've heard anything decently solid regarding release.
[Xoom General] jvs60:
I don't think it has an sd card slot either
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
I can't wait until this actually becomes a xoom forum instead of a 'what should I buy instead of a xoom?' forum.

You realize there is a galaxy tab 10.1 xda forum, right?
[Xoom General] tlogank:
I agree it looks great, but Samsung is soooooo slllooooowwwww with updating their devices. They took forever with Windows phones are are probably the worst manufacturer about updating their Android phones as well (many US galaxy phones are STILL on 2.1).
[Xoom General] hi_its_ryan:
That has a lot to do with their touchWiz afaik, which won't be an issue with the tab 10.1.

I'd be more excited about it if there was a release date and sd card slot

But how can I turn off Vibrate hardware buttons ? Thank you.
[HD7 General] grant9908:
I hate that the "hard buttons" vibrate. I'm not a child......I don't need things to make noise and vibrate as if my ADD is so bad I need to be constantly harangued to pay attention to the device that is already glued to my hand.

I turn off all sounds and noises, and I would love *love *LOVE* if someone would figure out how to make it stop vibrating, or to write a program to effectively end that function.
[HD7 General] cryst_666:
+1 on that! Really annoying
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
Wait, the HD7 doesn't have any hardware buttons that vibrate on use except the camera button.

Are you talking about the capacitive buttons? If you are, then there is currently no way to disable that. That's something HTC decided on, so you'll have to contact them and bug them for a fix.
[HD7 General] PanNet:
In my opinion is really annoying too. I think I should have a choice.

[HD7 General] icemanxpe:
This is really unfortunate. That vibration 'feature' is really annoying. It's more like a nuisance than a feature. I sure hope Microsoft gets the message and does something about it.

Hello,

Im using the oxygen rom for about two months now, and before the 2.0 release there was a option to enable silence hours. It was possible to disable the buzzer but leave the sounds/ringtones enabled. With the update to 2.0, that option is removed. Is there an alternative that does the same?

Thanks in advance!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhillySaxon:
If you haven't already got Tasker, I'd use that - I've manually set all my quiet hours with it, along with a whole bunch of other stuff (a quick google will tell you all about it).

I actually use Tasker & AudioManager Pro [with the Locale plugin that Tasker integrates] although you can set your volume profiles with just tasks.

I changed the password on my Gmail account. Now I need to do the same in my Tab account but have not been able to figure out so far how to do it. I am not talking about email clients but the Tab Accounts and sync where all the accounts are listed.

I tried removing the account in order to recreate but the Tab tells me that it is required by some applications and that I can remove it only by a factory resett which I am avoiding to do. Even if I tied read here about someone trying to unsuccessfuly do that as well.

Is there any way to change the password for the Gmail account on the Tab?

Hi everyone,

A two-parter:

1. Is there any ROM in existence I can flash with Odin that WILL NOT erase my apps, contacts, pics, movies, etc? Phone's a Galaxy S i9000M rooted Eclair 2.1 with voodoo lag fix beta 4 soft bricked. Can't get passed Galaxy S screen.

2. If there isn't such a thing, what's a good ROM to flash with for Froyo? Does it come in a package (custom rom, lag fix, kernel, etc) and where can I get it from?

Thanks for your replies. Sorry for double posting or if this has been asked before. Been trying to make my phone work all day. This is all like rocket science to me :o

EDIT: Think I should have posted this under general Q&A. Apologies to the mod. Can it be moved there? Thanks!

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clone132:
Hello,

I am currently running Rom Manager 3.0.1.0 with ClockworkMod Recovery version 3.0.0.6. I'm trying to install GorillaSense DHD-MT4G Revolution theme on my phone but, I can't seem to install the update due to the ClockworkMod version. I need to downgrade to 2.5.1.2. When I do this through the Rom Manager it states that I have successfully flashed ClockworkMod Recovery but when I reboot into recovery, it doesn't load.

The versions available to me is 3.0.0.6 and 2.5.1.4. Is there any way I can get access to 2.5.1.2 again?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackSHELF:
Well if you have Rom Manager 3.0.1.0 then yes you can flash Recovery 2.5.1.2 by going to Rom Manager and go down to the last option "All clockworkmod recoveries". Find 2.5.1.2 from the list and it will flash it for you.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clone132:
Thank you for your quick reply. My problem lies in the fact that Rom Manager states that I have successfully flashed 2.5.1.2 but when I try load boot into recovery the recovery does not load.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackSHELF:
Well in that case manually flash it via terminal. Just put the 2.5.1.2 recovery.img in SDCard and flash it.

You will need flash_recovery file which you can find by using search function along with 2.5.1.2.img this meth works as I did it always.

EDIT: Sorry if you can't find it but here is the atth as I keep backup of almost everything on mSD.BkP so download it and unzip them in root of your /sdcard so you will have standalone flash_recovery and recovery.img in it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clone132:
Thanks for all your help. That worked perfectly.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackSHELF:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boroarke:
Had a similar issue and followed your directions above in terminal. After I enter in the last line and hit enter, is it supposed to show something going on because it just goes to the next line. I downloaded your attached clockwork file and put it on the root of my SD card. Thanks for any help.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clone132:
I don't quite remember what happens after you enter the last command on the terminal but, the only command I entered when I downloaded the files and extracted it to the root was "su[enter]

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img[enter]"

After that I was able to boot into recovery.

Another option is deleting the copy of the recovery in your SD card and redownloading it with ROM Manager. Just go to: /sdcard/clockworkmod/download/mirror1.kanged.net/recoveries. Delete recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-glacier.img, redownload and try loading it with Rom Manager again.

Hopes this helps.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] 8520:
Just got the 4g today, and after removing all the bloatware, I tried to replace the stock swype with a black version using root explorer. In the process the orginal swype.apk & swype.odex that came on the 4g was deleted, and now the version I have won't install. Also, reinstalling factory package won't work as it gets stuck at verifying.

I suspect the inability to install is a signing issue, but I'm on windows 7, so from what I understand it's a lot harder to sign apps.

Is it feasible that I can install a signed swype app or am I sol until the tar becomes available?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:

I had my phone since it launched pretty much and it was working fine with official 2.2 froyo for months.

I was about to sell my phone tomorrow so I factory reset it and when it booted up, it was working fine and made calls fine.

Then I took out my sim card and rebooted it and now the phone won't boot up. Now it just shows the galaxy s i9000m logo flashing on and off.

It was from bell and it was on 2.2 froyo, unlocked, and with no lag fix or any other mods.

Can someone please give me a quick link to a fix if there is one because I need to figure out a fix or else I will have to cancel the sale of the phone. I know a lot of people have different circumstances and I'm not sure which one mine would be under.

After months of neglecting updates due to other projects, I finally got around to updating and I am very, very proud to announce:

Sculpted 2.1.1​

NOW ON THE MARKET: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.shift.theme.Sculpted

UPDATED TO 2.1.1! Changelog in post #3.

Theme Manager compatible! Less words and more pics!!

​

Note: Launcherpro stock icons have been themed for presentation.

It is still not fully complete, however. The most common apps are also going to be themed too. Check back for updates!

There are still some areas that need to be themed, but they will be noted in the new issues list and updated accordingly. If you find any inconsistencies, please let me know. Thanks!

Speaking of thanks, there are a few individuals I'd like to personally thank:

phinnaeus, for his original Sculpted theme and inspiring me to continue to work on this to this point and further!!

spiicytuna, without whom I couldn't have done this and release without going bald; whether it was understanding the new theme engine, providing design ideas, or just simply going that extra step when all I wanted to do was throw my laptop at the wall. Watch out for his whip. It's very motivational!

karadorde, for always being supportive, helpful, and always providing a different perspective to all of my work.

eyeballer1, whose constant pushing to release Sculpted 2.0 as well as providing design ideas and feedback was extremely helpful.

dkelle4, for being one of the most motivational trolls i've ever met.

toastcfh, who demanded I release this theme as soon as possible. What other motivation do I need?!

jabbawalkee & beatblaster, for being there for all of my questions and stupid inquiries on themeing.

#TeamWin, for the amazing support they've given me <3

voodoo55 & haxzamatic, for providing spiicytuna and myself a lot of info and groundwork to work with!!

MIRROR - thanks kevank!!

P.S. Attaching a white version of the Sculpted wallpaper, as requested by bizdady and spiicytuna :)
