I was missing the trolls here. Good to see you guys.
[Optimus 7 General] EagleEye2004:
LOL why u haven´t buyed a hd2 :)

where u have WP7, Android, Windows mobile, ubuntu, Meego, ... donno what the future brings...

BTW: i buyed this phone only for testing and development.
[Optimus 7 General] plushack_lodz:
So do I. I think a wp7 gui i very comfortible and useful. Imho the future belongs to wp7 phones.
[Optimus 7 General] grygrygry:
I was here for a simple wi-fi ad hoc connection and to know if is possible wi fi sharing (now I know that it's so difficult but not impossible) for my lg optimus 7.

Sorry guys, not for offende noone but it's true that wp7 is easy but smartphone IMHO are mini pc and for me they must be able to navigate (if free it's better), have native multitasking, have flash for a best browsing experience, a little bit of game, just for fun or as timekiller, and some tool for syncronize calendar and mail for business. I'm an ex wm 6.1 lover with htc diamond and others, an apple's hater for restricted policy and wp7 is going in this direction. So for me, and I'm so sorry for this, wp7 have all the defects of osx Without the benifits of apple store. The only benifits over apple is that I can choose an economic device or high end device, but there's no compare with Android. Please, try a Samsung Galaxy S or Desire HD with a cooked rom and with lagfix actived. Now my lg optimus 7 is a paperweight..... :(
[Optimus 7 General] grygrygry:
Yes, I think that hd2 it's the most beautiful window's device, better than osx and wp7, very close to Android, the only problem the lag after long use...
[Optimus 7 General] GolfVR6:
Maybe this Android freedom is interesting for who is discovering this kind of thing now, but as a former user of Symbian and WinMo for the last 5 years, this "freedom" isn't interesting for me anymore.

I don't need a "mini PC" in my pocket, I just want to do what I need to do quickly, and for that, WP7 is the best for me.

I don't know for you guys, but I get sick of all those menus and sub-menus to access everything I need on Symbian/WinMo/Android.

I would like to get a little bit more freedom on WP7, but I still can do all I need to do, so it's ok.

Don't you trolls have a cave gathering somewhere? I could swear it was the troll mating season.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superchunkwii:
I ask because I have an almost entirely custom set of pages with unique icons, special containers, etc.

I thought I had everything backed up correctly, but, after flashing a new rom the only items to not fully return were the actual widgets themselves.

Now this may just be an issue with widgets in general as the only ones to correctly return were those from LauncherPro Plus.

My smooth calendar, digiclock, and all of the Desktop VisualizeR ones did not. They say "Problem loading widget".

Is there something I'm missing in Titanium Backup that would correctly back these up?

Thanks!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thrillhouse847:
Widgets don't backup correctly and therefore will never restore correctly, it's just a limitation of the system.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neh4pres:
Just remake the widgets

Sent from my Rocking dj05, themed superdark w/o swype mod, voodoo 5, with custom boot and shutdown.. With premium xda app.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glocjt:
Are you changing between different ROMs? 'Cause I just leave everything (outside of doing a dalvik and cache wipe) when going between versions of adryn's SC and my widgets load up just fine.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hemorrdroid:
I know in LP it states that it cannot reload widgets, that you have to do it manually.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace5198:
everything shortcuts, programs games on my home screens always load back up.. but never once has a widget loaded back up
[Fascinate General] kundoc:
I just noticed a couple of days ago that the screen was not rotating when phone is placed sideways..i have that autorotation function enabled but still not turning.

I am not sure what happened, but it is kinda irritating.

I recently flashed SC 2.5 voodoo last week, didnt notice this at first. not sure if it is rom-related or just my phone ,,maybe some apps i installed..

has anybody had this problem before?

should i just wipe and flash again? i rather not do it if i can resolve it without flashing new rom.

thank you
[Fascinate General] Michaelg2183:
There should be a rotation option on the far right of your pull down menu. Make sure it's lit up

Edit: sorry I didn't see that in your op. Have you tried disabling and re enabling
[Fascinate General] kundoc:
I tried that several times both from pull down menu and display setting but didnt help. I tried to turn off the phone and boot it but didnt help.
[Fascinate General] Dread This Day:
I think it is important to note here that NOT ALL LAUNCHERS SUPPORT AUTO ROTATION. Do your APPS while in use Auto-Rotate? If so, then it is simply your homescreen that will not Auto-Rotate because of your launcher, and THAT you cannot change, unless you get a different launcher. If your APPS do not Auto-Rotate either though, then yes, I would wipe, wipe, wipe, and re-flash. Also the launcher that comes with SuperClean does NOT Auto-Rotate. :-)
[Fascinate General] kundoc:
i use launcherpro, and i disabled autorotation for the launcher so yes launcher doesnt rotate but i like it that way. but now even if i enable the autorotation for launcherpro it wont rotate. main problem is using browsers (dolphine, stock, or opera) or typing like sending text it just suddenly stopped rotating a couple of days ago, not sure why,, other apps like games that have default horizontal display is working fine (but they dont rotate anyway..)
[Fascinate General] Dread This Day:
I have heard of this bro, it is probably the sensor. Someone else reported the same problem. They wiped, wiped, wiped, and reflashed and all was well. I would try that, I hope it works for you!
[Fascinate General] Mikes30000:
I had the same thing happen to me about a week ago, but I was able to pinpoint when the problem occurred and I was able to fix it. If you use Google Maps, at some point it may tell you that your compass needs to be calibrated and that you should wave your phone in a figure 8. Well I started waving my phone and then suddenly it hard locked and the screen turned a funky shade of yellow. I had to pull the battery and reboot. At that point I lost all rotation and sensors. If you go to the Android market and download some Compass or Sensor apps, you should see that you phone doesn't work with those apps. I ended up wiping everything and just reflashing a superclean version again. Fortunately, all of my sensors started working again and I have not experienced this problem since.
[Fascinate General] kundoc:
make sense..i guess ill just wipe x3~4 then reflash...thank you
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
So i just got my refurb a week later.

I noticed some things...

1) The plastic it came with had a little hole for the FFC lol.

2) the camera band-outside is green instead of clear like my old one... is this a different camera or something?

and....

IT HAS 2.2!!!!!!!!!!!
[Vibrant General] iwillkillyou:
A modified phone? you should change it again, or stay if you like FFC?
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
the camera's on refurb/replacement phones have this little blue platsic stuff to protect the camera bezel in travel. it's not a solid sheet, it's just a "ring".
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
is that supposed to be funny because tmo screw you over ? :PPPP j/k
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
no no no it doesn't have a FFC it has a FFC thing on the plastic.

Oh well mines green lol.

they didn't tbh this phone looks better than my old one the screen seems... brighter!
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
they didn't tbh this phone looks better than my old one the screen seems... brighter! , its because u run stock kernel with stock rom , aftermarket kernels or roms dimm your screen alot so it conserves your battery .
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
OOH OKAY.

10 char
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Well Xrider........ if you see "oka" scratched on the inside the phone under the battery...... it was my old phone...........:p

[XPERIA X8 General] DarkThanos:
Why dont you try to repair it with pc companion...
[XPERIA X8 General] opelkadett:
How ? :( :( :( :( :(
[XPERIA X8 General] DarkThanos:
By doing this you will lose all your phone data... all

Connect your phone with your pc.

If you dont have the pc pompanion installed on your pc, click to install it from the notification that come up when you connect the phone with the pc.

Then Run pc companion, click start on support zone

and if there is a problem with your phone there will be option for repair (i think makes an update).

Or you can just update your phone...
[XPERIA X8 General] opelkadett:
I doing now,I see what happinied
[XPERIA X8 General] mukambc:
It worked?

You tried a full reset?
[XPERIA X8 General] opelkadett:
WORK,thanks very match.... :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2842059:
I'm missing it on my Nexus S. Either it's not here or I'm blind and stupid. Can someone point the way? It's become so iconic, to my brain, it doesn't recognize anything else quite the same way...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AtomicPC:
What was it called? PM me your email address.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2842059:
It's called Pixie Dust. I grabbed my brother's Nexus One.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2842059:
Grrrr! It's driving me nuts without that specific sound.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
The Nexus S doesn't come with Pixie Dust notification sound. I just checked my stock phone and it's not there.

I pulled it out of a ROM file for the i9000 though, so here it is if you want to push it via adb to your phone's /system/media/audio/notifications folder. I may do just that myself... ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leerobson99:
Bit of a noob question lol but how do u push via adb.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrycycle:
@leerobson99

Can use root explorer also. All done from phone.

This is another option. Make a folder on sdcard partition name (Audio) and inside that folder make another folder named (notifications). Place the audio tone in the notifications folder. Then reboot. It should show in the listing for notifications.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winx14:
here...

http://rapidshare.com/files/451884460/pixiedust.ogg

create these folders: "media", then "audio", then "notifications". throw the file into the last folder. throw the media folder into your phone.

not sure if the folder part was necessary, but that's what i read back when i got my g2. worked on both the g2 and ns.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2842059:
Thanks to everyone!!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rewtor:
Brilliant! Thanks for this.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leerobson99:
it did, thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Did 2.3.3 fix the bug where ringtones and notifications on the sdcard got "lost" when randomly or after a USB storage mount? Even if they did, you still lose access to the sounds when USB storage mounted. That's a problem putting on the sdcard. It's why I got in the habit of just putting them into /system with the default onese.
[Desire General] Klemc:
Hey. Anybody try this rom(i now its for HD2): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=953078

on desire? maybe we can edit it to work.. and why? to prove that it can be done ;)

and it would be cool to have maybe dual boot, android and wp7? i know that there are launchers... but launcher is not like that :) so please tell me if its possible :confused:

Klemen
[Desire General] Meaple:
Probably possible but there isn't a cry out for it so developers won't port it.
[Desire General] Klemc:
its maybe possible without porting? i dont dare to do this, because MAGLDR delete all data on the phone.. so if something is wrong... :) maybe someone try it and tell us here? ;)
[Desire General] Lothaen:
aren't there licensing issues with porting windows phone 7 around too?
[Desire General] Klemc:
why? its alreadly ported to HD2 :) and there are no licensing issues :) (i think) :D
[Desire General] bedobela:
I'd love to see a WP7 ROM... Actually I like flashing ROMS so I bought this device thinking that the WP7 ROM will be ported. Chose it over the HD2 because of its size and display actually and thought that it has basically the same possibilities when it comes to flashing all kinds of ROMS.. A bit disappointed but hey - I would probably just try the WP7 ROM and then come back to Android anyway.
[Desire General] Zeze21:
lol i'd love to see that too actually also an ios port if possible. I mean nowadays where flashing roms has become so easy and fast I would just love the freak people out having a phone there and basically switching between android WP7 and Ios
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Still doesn't mean it shouldn't be done. Windows requires the handset to be licensed as Windows needs to be activated - same as on a PC

It'll be technically illegal to run WP7 on anything other than a WP7 handset. Besides, the Desire would need new drivers written from scratch to work
[Desire General] Lothaen:
with HD2 being a windows mobile originally would this cover windows phone perhaps?

as desire is an android phone - then thats where you'll probably hit the issues
[Desire General] Klemc:
hmm i dont think so.. you can look the new htc trophy, i think that the hardware is amost the same as desire... so we first need someone to try this without porting :) maybe work :P but i dont want to f*ck up my desire :)
[Desire General] acerlinux:
Dual boot @_@, too massy, really ...
[Desire General] AndroHero:
You dont seem to understand how things work, just like on a pc, the operating system need an enviroment to boot from, this is called the bootloader, during the initial boot phaze alot is going on, mainly the initalization of hardware, now our bootloader is not compatible with WP7, it would be like using linux to try and boot windows.... so for WP7 to even boot a whole new bootloader, and hardware drivers must be written. Problem two is the radio, the desire radio was written with the android open source project in mind, it would not be compatible with WP7, so a new radio would have to be written. Problem 3. The nand chip uses an EXT file system on the desire, WP7 uses NTFS, so a tool would have to be written to format the nand chip.... and finally as has been said before, without buying a WP7 licence it would be piracy, amd XDA would almost certainly have to deal with retaliation from microsoft.
[Desire General] dgattenb:
buy a w7 phone... far better ...

not sure why you would .. unless you dont like androids....

Anyway there are theams you can get , whic wil give you the glowing win 7 mobile look...
[Desire General] m4a1rifle:
mmm seems like one of the requirement is wm6.5 rom (if you come from android nand directly wp7 might not boot)
[Desire General] Klemc:
....might not boot.... :) :) ;)
[Desire General] dannylill1981:
this project isnt going to happen, especially on here anyway as XDA doesnt condone piracy which is essentially what your talking about doing.
[Desire General] peytral:
Hmm... interesting indeed, but I don't want to reduce functionality on my phone :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vish.s:
hey guys since im a newbie, i cant post to the dev threads and ask questions. so i hope you guys can help me out over here.

i just installed by first custom rom, the cyanogen6.1.3 as modded by rendeiro2005; amazing rom, works brilliantly.

my only problem was that facebook, (the all black fb didnt appeal to me) doesnt update and neither does launcher pro.

i have then tried to backup them up through titanium and uninstall them, hoping that market would now dl them and install succesfully. even that didnt work. i then looked through my own back ups of apps, n ran the apks for both of them on the phone, none installed.

so now m left with no fb and no launcher pro

any help would be v much appreciated.

thanks.

K this was an "out of sight out of mind" thing for me, but now that I've seen it I wanna know....

I gave them 15 dollars, 10 for the shipping charge and 5 for w/e they want and their like.. haha and agreed hahah.
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
tell your mom your phone stoped working and what if you need to call for help , i know its a lie but , by any means necessary for a vibrant right .
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
thats exactly what i did lol.

My mom isn't the "tech" kind and my dad works near the Microsoft area, so he doesn't know much about Android so i told them i had a kernel panic for my new refurb lol.

[Nexus S General] mac227:
I just picked up my nexus S about an hour ago and so far I love it. This is my first smartphone so I have some noob questions. If I want to install a 3rd party keyboard (like swype) how/ where do I do this? How do I update the os to the nexus s? If I hook it up to my computer is it automatically gonna start updating it or something? I am not sure that I want the gingerbread 2.3.3 update because I love the display as it is now and dont want it changed.
[Nexus S General] peeturr:
For swype, just Google swype beta and sign up. I believe registration is open right now. As far as updates, your phone will eventually prompt you if you want to update. If you choose yes, it will download the update to your phone and perform the update.
[Nexus S General] Gaurav.Stallion:
Even I have the same doubt, how will I be able to upgrade to 2.3.3?
[Nexus S General] peeturr:
You can manually update if you follow the guides in the development section. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for the ovrr thr air update that they are in the process of pushing out right now. There's no way to determine when your device is marked to receive it. Could be minutes, hours, days.
[Nexus S General] peeturr:
*over the air (OTA)
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
you can manually push the update to 2.3.3 through recovery located here:
