Facebook, browser although good has CRAZY weird stuff at time (delayed typing, delayd pinch to zoom in/out, soft force closes, I even got flashing web page and previous app) media player with proper coding has some very infrequent flash to home screen then back to movie.

None of this really bother me and I know Facebook isn't properly gingerbreaded, its just good for all of us and google to be informed.

Will the D2 root method work for D2G? And is there any sort of simple root for the device?
[Droid 2 Global General] gifferjesus:
Download Astro from the market, then look for z4 root here on XDA. Yes it works.
[Droid 2 Global General] armada786:
I can also confirm z4root works for a permaroot. I've done it twice.
[Droid 2 Global General] Asphyx:
Yep Z4Root for me as well. Never had an issue but....

I use kaspersky Anti Virus and it will report it as a Virus when you try and download it. (Kaspersky is actually is correct as it uses a known technique to get root access that a Virus would use to do it's thing)

But the file itself is safe!

Download it and put it on your SD card and run it.

I make an APK folder on the SD card to keep all these non market downloads nice and organized.

If you should ever flash a new rom you will want to be able to find and re-install them later because they won't re-install automaticially unless you get them from the market otherwise.
[Droid 2 Global General] noahguz:
Okay! One more question guys.... a tech at the VZW store told me that the D2Gs stock Froyo has pretty much a built in app killer! I think that's bull, but he strongly believed it did? Is this true?
[Droid 2 Global General] -Gilgamesh-:
To my understanding all (or maybe just the newest?) versions of Android will close low priority processes when resources get low.
[Droid 2 Global General] erismaster:
Im pretty sure its only froyo that closes low priority processes.
[Droid 2 Global General] -Gilgamesh-:
Yeah, when I read that it said "The Android operating system..." it didnt really elaborate as to what build, so not 100% sure.
[Droid 2 Global General] noahguz:
Its android 2.2 on the D2G
[Droid 2 Global General] papi92:
The blur has its own task killer that works great. It learns what u use and what u don't.
[Droid 2 Global General] strike3:
When you root the D2G -- does it still need to be 'unlocked' if I want to put a SIM in it for overseas travel?
[Droid 2 Global General] spectraphysics:
Rooting and unlocking are two completely different things. Rooting has no impact on unlocking.
[Droid 2 Global General] PS4AndroidHacker:
Rooting and Unlocking

As far as rooting SOC is probably the best and easiest way to go and to get the phone unlocked you can call the Manufacturer or Verizon to get the unlock code. I do a lot of overseas travel with the U.S.Army and they usually give me the unlock code right over the phone when I tell them I'm going overseas for the military. Then you install a SIM card(Not SD Card) from another company into the phone and it will let you input the unlock code. If the unlock code is entered correctly the phone will tell you it has been unlocked. Rooting has no effect on unlocking the phone.

[Dell Streak 7] binarybishop:
Here is an app that is free on the market that will greatly reduce the strain on your battery as it runs in the background. It easily added an additional 2 hours for me to the battery life. Its called "SuperPower". If you search the market for XDA Super Power, it will come up. Run it the first time and let it set itself up, and grant it root privlidges.

DO NOT MESS WITH THE SETTINGS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, BECAUSE YOU MAY SOFTBRICK IT AND HAVE TO DO A FACTORY RESET.

It will not work properly if your device is not rooted.

Again this is free app, with a nag-screen that occasionally come up that you can click no and it goes away. Or, if you like the work that XDA did and want to pay for the app you can as well through that nag-screen like I did and it will get rid of the nag and you get full support and updates. And the money goes toward offsetting the cost of XDA forums.
[Dell Streak 7] jiwengang:
Thanks for the tips.

Unfortunately, I tried the beta version and seems it did not get an update since Nov last year. And almost no one is maintaining it. (Maybe if I purchase the full version there will be more maintainence?)
[Samsung Mesmerize] kasandoro:
Using EA16, PnP .2 and Splash of Color, my clock is always about 10 minutes slow by the end of the day on my mesmerize. Is anyone else seeing this? A reboot fixes it, and disabling the network time sync and handling it manually doesn't seem to help.
[Samsung Mesmerize] spilky1224:
I use beautiful widgets and its always spot on. My girlfriend has a stock 2.2 desire on uscc and both her sense clock and my bw clock are the same. Another widget that I've used and its free is SiMi, its in the market as well.
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
I haven't had any issues either
[Samsung Mesmerize] gr4ybu5h:
Ive had that. I downloaded clocksync from the market and set it up to resync every six hours. I had that problem with EA11. I haven't tried EB16 without clocksync so I don't know if I still have the problem or not. But now I can set it and forget it. :)
[Samsung Mesmerize] phidelt82:
So I'm still trying to figure out... is this a theme, a mod, or an app?

Just bustin balls, but it probably should have been posted in General to get the exposure that it needs. BTW, I haven't seen this on any of the flashes that I have done either.
[Samsung Mesmerize] kasandoro:
Great question, I'm trying to figure out the same, or if it's just a network issue. I use an authenticator to log into a game I play, and I noticed the codes it was giving me stopped working. That's when I noticed my time was off.

I downloaded the "Clocksync" app recommended by gr4ybu5h (thanks!) and it seems to be keeping things synced.

My apologies if this is the wrong forum, I just noticed the issue after I flashed the Splash of Color pack, so figured it'd be a good place to start.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clienterror:
Yes and no. The UI will be gone but the Widgets are still available. To stop blur almost completely load Titanium backup and freeze "home 2.2.1" app I think.it is. Just make sure before you freeze it you have another launcher installed already.

Yep. It basically eliminates blur. If you want you can go a step further and freeze the widgets associated with blur also.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Guiso0623:

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Inphinitizeit:
My point is that I think google is cherry picking the apps that show up in that section. It's not the tablet app section its the featured tablet app section so the apps must merit being featured. I do however think there should be away to search for honeycomb optimized applications in addition to this featured tablet app section.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] tomyboombotz:
People pay to be on the fetured app section because its more marketing for there app witch I think is stupid
[Xoom Themes and Apps] altimax98:
Give it time... good lord. Apple had a slow start to the tablet sections too. Everyone is so damn sensitive nowadays. Give it time and the formatted apps will appear. Hell google just released that special file or whatnot that allows designers to design for all screen size/format in one apk. Dont tell me google doesnt care, its just a slow start not to mention i personally believe that motorola pushed google to release a not fully finished os to beat out the iPad2 announcement.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] p-slim:
the op's point makes sense, he isn't complaining about the number of apps. when i hit that tablet featured tab i expect to see apps that are table optimized. there are many tablet and honeycomb optimized apps that are hard to find. if they are charging the people who pay money should just have theirs on top. Right now when you hit that button they make it seem like there are only 20 or so honeycomb apps period.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewallrus:
Hey guys,

I had a few questions about sideloading off market apps, that i couldn't find answers to. Thanks for your consideration.

If i understand correctly, you can only sideload apps on my unrooted samsung captivate by using a connection to a computer, right?

I know about the sideload wonder machine and i have used it successfully.

I know i could download the android sdk, and use the adb push command.

Is there a way to edit the no_market_app value in the settings db file only using my un-rooted phone?

Or can i use terminal emulator or a combination of both to somehow install an off market app?

I was just trying to think of ways to avoid having to conncect to a computer to install an app. I was on the road with a friend, and i had an off market app i wanted to give him, but he also has att(which blocks sideloading of off market apps), so i didn't even try. But wouldn't it be awesome if i could send the apps to his phone through bluetooth or email, then install it on his phone without rooting his phone? Maybe a temporary root of some sort would work? Isn't that how swc works?

Anyways, once i've played enough with my stock phone, i'll beg for more and i'll eventually root, and i'll probably end up playing with the sdk too. Thanks again guys!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liv33viL:
To Root or Not To Root... or Perhaps Just A Temp Root...

There are a few quick fix temp root apps floating around. It really depends on you model and build if they work correctly or not.

You could, as you mentioned, push from a cmd promt in adb, install from the cmd promt in adb to the device - or - pull from the device itself using a shell or terminal.

Unfortunately, I currently don't know of a direct way that you would be able to access, let alone edit the system.db file to make a permanent modification without at least being under a temp root.

Peace-

Basically I had been running phiremod v2, used the bootable CWM found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959240 to format the SD card I had in the machine, removed it, and on reboot - nothing. No power, no screen, no nothing. Not even a bootable SD will run.

In each of the other threads I've seen with similar symptoms, the result is almost always that someone gets an SD card to boot - I can't seem to do that.

Am I just missing a painfully obvious solution, or should I get this puppy returned (brand new)?

You did not brick it.

The Nook is 99.99% non-brickable because it is set to boot from the SD card over the internal memory. I know I did this sunday night. What you have to do is get gb_clockwork-0.1-ext4.tar and Winimage and make a bootable sc card and this will alway you to get into clockworkmod and then you can flash a new rom. Just do a search for gb_clockwork-0.1-ext4.tar and there are sites that will give you step by step direct on how to do this. Good luck.

Thanks duder - just saw the other three or so threads that popped with this and realized instantly how often everyone here must deal with the question.

Is anyone experiencing a bit of a lag while running a few of the games? I'm curious to what would cause this. It happens with Angy Birds and Galcon at the moment for me. Specifically right before I launch a bird with Angry birds. With Galcon it just runs a bit sluggish.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] alexbreton:
i've had some lag on angry birds. If i exit the app and start it again the lag goes away.

I've had music and other things running with no lag, so i dont think its the processor bogging down. It must be a software issue
[Xoom Themes and Apps] eL_777:
I did notice angry birds lagging but only when the upper-right corner ad pops up. If you leave the app and come back in the ad probably won't be there which would explain why you don't lag when that happens. My fix?... rooted the xoom and put on ad-free android to block the ads.. no more lag ;)
[Fascinate General] 4GivenByChrist:
If possible could the choice under applications > development that allowed us to check having the screen not sleep while charging be added to a rom?

I know some said it was removed because many complained about the option, but I'm sure many miss it too.

I'd love to have it back for Pandora, SiriusXM and other apps without having to do the work around by setting the sleep time to 30 minutes or so.

Is it possible or is source code needed first?

Is Autokiller Memory Optimizer still relevent? I first learned of it in KaosFroyo v36? I think?

I realize it is not a "killer" the same way most task killers are, and it just adjust the limits of the actual systems ram limits.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanlalee:
I still use it. Why? Because even with gingerbread there's an obvious difference in available memory with and without it. My memory improves on average 20mb with it vs without it (just random checking it). now I realize that can hurt or help (having something already running in the background serves its purpose for quick access. too much stuff running you used and are NOT going to access anytime soon hurts). overall I havent noticed it hurting performance/speed at all and I'd rather have the free space available for operating apps so I use it. less things running even in background should at least theorically help battery life a little. I dont think its NEEDED by any means but the way I bang app after app it works for me.
