[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] AlphaMack:
The problem with CM7 and other Gingerbread ROMs is that due to the Droid/Milestone's limited RAM, memory management is fairly aggressive to the point where important apps are being killed due to low memory situations. This is why you're seeing so many threads about Gingerbread ROM users being unable to receive text messages.

The best thing to do is to run the SuperCharger v6 script as outlined in this thread:

You may also want to look into this thread over at DF for suggested minfree values:

You won't lose messages anymore

No need to set messaging app persistent in cm settings
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ferryPL:
The same situation is in froyo. I have stock 2.2 and I can't receive messages when i'm playing angry birds or browsing web and using flash.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] AlphaMack:
Using AMM could help to an extent. However, if/when you root (you said you were stock Froyo but I'm not sure if you rooted), the SuperCharger script is a far better solution.

Give each a try.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ferryPL:
Yes I'm rooted and i'm SuperCharger script user. Any minfree values and also AMM don't help me. Sometimes is better, sometimes not but at all there is still a problem with receiving messages when my phone has low free ram space.

ok i had a xperia x10 and it went for a swim. the sim and sd card are ok as they are now running in my galaxy s (couldnt get another x10). i did a backup using the sony ericsson backup and restore software. tried loading it on the galaxy (the apk file was on the memory card) but no joy. i have found the backup i made and all i am really after is the contacts. any help would be appreciated!:D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzfanatic:
How big is the apk? Did it save the backup as an apk file or is the apk the software itself to restore the data? I suggest syncing contacts with google next time so this won't really be an issue but if you can give me some info (I'm unfamiliar with the backup tool you used) I might be able to help.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed27au:
i used the sony ericsson backup utility when i went from 1.6 to 2.1 (the one you get from the sony ericsson update service). the backup file is a .sbf and i tried running the .apk file on the galaxy but it didnt load
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrtim123:
it definately will NOT run on any phone other than a SE phone. your only hope is to find someone else with an x10, pop your sd card in their phone, restore the files to their phone and then sync with google. the joys of using proprietry software. another reason why se are jokes. sorry man, but its not looking too good.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] knightnz:
As per this news item on the main page, and these threads - I've modified the Android Vs Apple vaudeville-esque boot animation to suit the Galaxy Tab screen resolution, I've also changed the background colour from grey to pure black.

Simply use Root explorer, or adb to push this file to /system/media/ - make sure to backup your existing bootanimation.zip file.

I'm sorry I can find who the original author is in order to attribute this to them, please let me know if you know who they are, or if you _are_ the author, let me know if you're happy with me redistributing this altered version, if not then I'll pull it.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] -Howard-:
Thank you i like this boot animation :)
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] ovigt71:
thanks a lot! works like a charm !
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jinsoku3g:
When you say adhesive to push to the folder...is that justmoving the zip there?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Justin^Tan:
Thanks, love it ^^
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] knightnz:
Not sure where you got adhesive from. I said to use adb which is the Android SDK component for accessing your device from your PC via USB. There's a tutorial on the forum somewhere, but the basic gist is to download the Android SDK, install the toolpack and then you get the shell tool "adb" which you can use for all sorts of handy things. You can just use root explorer instead though.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Arktronic:
Here's the official description of Network Suite on the marketplace:

Like with most of my apps, I created this one because I needed it and there was nothing good enough out there.

I'm looking forward to MIX11, where Microsoft will hopefully announce proper socket support so that Network Suite could be fully functional without relying on a server that I have to pay for ;)

That said, I still have a plan to allow for LAN network analysis even without good support for sockets from Microsoft. It would just be more complex to implement.

Here's the Zune-launching link for the app.

[Nook Color General] bugggie1:
A new beta version of Swype was released today that adds support for 1024 by 600 devices. I was able to download it and get it installed, but for some reason it keeps saying my license is invalid and tries to get me to generate the license again. I installed it several times and it keeps giving me the same error. Has anyone else run into this issue with the new version?
[Nook Color General] PGibbons999:
I'll download it tonight and give it a shot.

Would be nice to have a supported version of Swype for the NC.
[Nook Color General] Keebler1175:
How'd you manage to download the new beta? I used the Swype installer from the beta, but no dice on downloading that version
[Nook Color General] time pilot aka:
My guess is that Swype's "DRM" has the names of supported devices hard-coded into it. Which for 1024x600, that's just the 7" Galaxy Tab right now, right? Didn't that ship with Swype in the first place?

They'll probably never officially support the Nook until there's an open marketplace on the Device. Even then I wonder.

I am going to try hacking the apk on my Milestone this weekend to see if I can get it running on the Nook. I can imagine no keyboard more suited for the form-factor. The Gingerbread keyboard isn't bad in portrait mode typing with my thumbs, but swype would be so much better.
[Nook Color General] Nburnes:
Swype-schmype swiping over such a large surface seems to defeat the point for me. Gingerbread is good for portrait as time pilot stated, but in landscape it sucks for thumbs. Only keyboard I've found so far and I dig is Thumb Keyboard. Splits/jars the keyboard and does make it really easy to type on.
[Nook Color General] joshuajon2:
My understanding of swype beta was that it checked your IMEI. Unfortunately the nook hasn't got a cell modem and therefor no IMEI (and no swype).

I would love to be wrong!
[Nook Color General] joshuajon2:
Ok, I'm wrong. Swype isntalls now! It runs and is enabled and i can tap type but swyping words doesn't seem to work. Any dieas?
[Nook Color General] Paul22000:
I downloaded the Swype installer, installed it, and ran it. But it gives an error message that due to licensing issues, I can't install it on "additional devices".

How did you get it installed?
[Nook Color General] joshuajon2:
That is a known error. I'm not sure why I didn't get the additional devices bit. Did you download the latest installer? It was updated yesterday.

I think my swype is also restricted due to license issue. In the installer it says "ATTENTION! Swype is not properly licensed." and gives a procedure to fix it. This doesn't work though.
[Nook Color General] Paul22000:
Yep, latest installer. Just downloaded this morning.
[Nook Color General] joshuajon2:
You could try the threads over at the swype beta forum regarding that error in the known bugs subforum. It seems that my work firewall is blocking that site ATM for some reason....... or I'd look :-\
[Nook Color General] Chinpokomon:
It could very well be the IMEI generation routine in different ROMs. Report this problem on the Beta Forums and we'll see if someone can take a look at it.
[Nook Color General] barrist:
i was able to download with the installer. but im getting constant fc's instead?
[Nook Color General] marlonbr:
After several attempts and reboots I got it working BUT then it said that Swype was licensed for another device, but I just had done that.

So I think the problem is related to the IMEI since I saw on spectral souls description that the game wouldn't work on the nook color because every time it would generate a different IMEI number.

Any thoughts?
[Nook Color General] cresny:
Had you installed Swype before? I got this error when I installed the new version over the stock on my Epic 4G. I had to remove /system/app/Swype.apk AND /system/lib/libswypecore.so. Then Swype Installer ran successfullly. I have the older version running on the Nook, so I'm fine with that for now.
[Nook Color General] Shawn_230:
How did you get the older version to install on your Nook?

Because Swype apparently just added support for resolutions over WVGA, it always threw me errors on previous versions because of this.
[Nook Color General] cresny:
I searched terms "swype" and "wsvga". It's quite discussed, really.
[Nook Color General] fastoy:
When I run the beta installer [Ver. 1.1.20186 (12.01)] I get "there was a data error, likely due to a bad network connection. please try again." I uninstalled the installer using TiBu and deleted the download cache and re-downloaded with the same error.

I found this in the swype forums:

[G Tablet General] mildness:
Hey Guys,

An old-school alpha-geek, I started on a Radio Shack TRS-80 model 100 (Holy cow I should have kept that) and most recently an iPad 3G. I lead with this factoid only to suggest that I am comfortable with touch screen GUIs. (:-{)}

With the stock ROM my brand new G Tablet , Screen tapping does not register 20% of the time. Specifically when I press my finger on an icon it often does not launch.

This did not change with the "status update" Viewsonic pushed.

Is this behavior something I should get used to or should I expect a Vegan, tnt, etc ROM flash to rectify?

TIA!

Bill

[G Tablet General] butchconner:
mildness,

1. No, I would not call that normal. I do think my tablets work better with a firm press of the pad of the end of my finger than with a tap (aka, fingernail?). If it continues and you don't find a solution, I would look at return or swap options.

2. When I got my first tablet, which was way back in November, I barely could get the offscreen search/home/menu buttons to work. I was frustrated and tried everything. Then one day I installed another version -- not sure whether it was an OTA update or a ROM -- and suddenly it was fine!!!! Don't know why.

I know this doesn't "answer" your question -- but I hope I have given you ideas to work with.

[G Tablet General] wasserkapf:
My screen seems unresponsive when it is cold. That usually means right after I boot it up. Once it warms up it seems to work much better.

I didn't notice this when I first purchased it, back in the first week of November. But it was much warmer outside then, and I keep my home cool to keep costs down.
[G Tablet General] P00r:
Indeed, it's either this or a defective unit, better exchange it if cal doesn't change a thing...

P.S.

When calibrating, I noticed sometime it was not perfect, so sometime it need a few shot to be perfect, but if you do not see a difference then it's probably defective...
[G Tablet General] TEK112:
I had the same problem. Search my name and look for a post that I made including directions from another site on how to calibrate your screen.

I am at breakfast now or I would post the link. I was the same way you work and we're just about to return my G tablet. This fixed it 100%.

Just so that you know it is the right post it involves placing a blank calibration.ini file on your sdcard and sdcard 2.

Good luck!

I'm having issues with my Evo and the Google Talk Authentication Failure issue. I've done some searching, and it seemed that most people said clearing the data and cache on the Google.Framework app and Market app, followed by a reboot would fix the errors. I've tried this as well as other suggestions but have not resolved the issue yet.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] weichel:
I played a little bit with the scripts starting the X server used for the webtop. That X server is what prevents the HDMI mirroring (which is there out of the box) from working.

Wrapping it all up in some (rather quick & dirty) app - and there we go: HDMI mirroring.

Disclaimer

If you choose to perform this installation, I cannot be held responsible if you brick your device, damage it otherwise, blowup your monitor or create SkyNet.

Install perquisites

Your phone is rooted

You have ADB installed and know how to use it

You are aware that this is rather a hack than a polished product

You have read the disclaimer

How to install

All the manual script work is now unnecessary. Just install the APK, the app will do the rest.

Edit the /system/build.prop file and set ro.hdmi.mirror.enable to true

su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
sed -ie s/ro.hdmi.mirror.enable=false/ro.hdmi.mirror.enable=true/g /system/build.prop
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

Modify /etc/init.d/startXServer.sh to introduce some sort of a semaphore:

su
cd /etc/init.d
cp startXServer.sh startXServer.bak
(head -n 40 startXServer.bak; echo "if [ ! -e /var/run/noWebtop ]; then"; tail -n 12 startXServer.bak; echo "fi") > startXServer.sh

Install hdmimirroring.apk

adb install hdmimirroring.apk

Known Issues

While HDMI mirroring is enabled, starting webtop will freeze your screen (pull out HDMI cable to get a working screen again)

Once HDMI mirroring was enabled, webtop might not start smoothly anymore

Enabling HDMI mirroring might break your webtop session (The X server is killed in the process, thus all applications depending on the X display are likely to be killed as well. Let alone those started by xinit)

Auto rotation does not rotate the HDMI image (always in portrait mode)

Can't manually select the resolution or other parameters

Update/Edit

I reupploaded the app which no does all the setup on its own - so the procedure above is no unnecessary

All my digging (deep) in the guts of what runs on the Atrix suggests that there is no easy way of getting rotation to work. Someone might have to write a deamon which grabs the framebuffer image and draws it on the HDMI port (as GLES client). That's pretty much what they did on the Evo (someone correct me if I'm wrong). But not only is that a painful task, but also is the performance going to be rather bad (esp. compared to how good it is out of the box)

[Atrix 4G Android Development] igothacked1:
Playing games on the big screen is one thing. Some of the struggles I went through were whenever I go on the webtop mode is that it's hard for me to use it as a mirror when the touchscreen gets turned into a mouse (not everyone has a bluetooth mouse). Some people might not like that and want straight up mirroring, like how the Optimus 2X does it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] brandon15811:
You might wanna check out ExtDispService. It relates to HDMI.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ranova:
mirroring is so much better than motorola's crappy entertainment app. For one, its not limited to filetypes. You can use rockplayer to play x264s among others.

Secondly, as mentioned before, games. Especially emulation... Playing fullscreen via the webtop did not work well for 2 reasons. Native android games would require you to use the touchscreen, impossible with the webtop. Secondly, there would be a lot of framerate drops in the webtop environment, while there isn't any noticeable drop during mirroring.

It's very likely that something's wrong with the superuser rights, because if the ro.hdmi.mirror was not set, the application would try to set it.

Is the camera the only thing not working? If everything else works, how hard would it be to patch the camera to work for the atrix. If we were able to to get D2 camera on Atrix, we should be able to get Atrix camera on Photon
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ranova:
Im not 100% sure what else didnt work, I only tried it to see if it actually worked and then flashed back. It will be a lot more difficult than just moving over the D3 camera apk, because it is on the driver level (that is why the atrix CM7 still doesnt have a working camera - its one of the harder things to get working on full rom ports). The D3 camera apk basically works on any recent Motorola phone.
