Android :: Switching Off Apps

Jul 9, 2010

I click 'home' and go back to home. But if I go back to an app it's where I left it. I ask Voyager how to get somewhere, then go back to home, and put my HTC Desire to sleep. In the middle of the night I hear a voice saying "Go 100 yards and turn left." so voyager has an exit option in the menu. But what about other apps? They must surely be using up memory and battery power..?

General :: Restoring Apps After Switching From S2 To S3?

May 12, 2014

I got my wife an S3 for Mother's day and tonight, sat down to transfer all of her data from her S2. I used the Smart Switch app and along with Contacts, pictures ect. I included her apps. Problem is not all of them switched over. I figured i'd just re-download them again from Google Play Store from the S3, however the apps "appear" to be installed. I've check to see if the missing apps were selected as hidden but there's nothing there. I'm unable to uninstall and reinstall again. Her Gmail app isn't even visible anywhere on the device....have I missed a step in doing the switch from S2 to S3? Should I be signing her out of Google Play on the S2, and how to go about signing out of Google Play Store.

HTC Incredible : Switching Between Roms - Best Way To Restore Apps?

Sep 28, 2010

A question for all the frequent ROM-switchers. I've got the premium edition of Titanium, and up 'till now, every time I try out a new ROM, I have to re-load all my apps/data. It's not terribly inconvenient - I just do the batch 'restore apps/data' option - but I still have to 'confirm' the re-loading of each app, and it takes forever. It give me an 'install' prompt for each app which I have to press. Is there a faster way of restoring all my apps/data?

General :: Music Stops Playing When Switching Apps On Homescreen

Feb 8, 2014

I'm using a rom made by PecanCM. It's on 4.4.2 that could be found here.

I noticed that when I listen to music on my headphones and whenever I go into my homescreen, the music player would pause and not play the song anymore. I've tried 2 music applications (Apollo and Shuttle +) and it kept on doing the same thing on both apps. I've tried resetting the phone but the problem still persists.

I've searched and found out that a lot of people have similar issues and all they had to do was upgrade their music app. I've tried it with shuttle + but it didn't really work.

Samsung Galaxy I7500 : Galaxo 1.6.3.3 - Lags Between Switching Programs And Wait Close Apps Messages

Jun 13, 2010

I have installed my 128 mb galaxy i7500 galaxo 1.6.3 ( with new patch)

I see some lags between switching programs and wait close apps messages..

I think everyone see such mesegase...

I tried to use beutiful widgets or some other widgets but my processing power gets high (also battery usage) and force close messages are make me nuts.

But then I thing it must related to ram issues (after copilot usage) becouse we have limitted ram.. my firend have a hero and she uses copilot faster like google maps...

So I installed root required memory programs like autokiller & minfreemanager.. and readjust memory values...

I make

Foreground 8 mb
Visible App 10
Secondary server 12
Hidden app 24
Content Provider 26
Empty app 24

When I make this changes my app launcher and other programs works faster than before and the transitions are better much better than before and less force closes...

I write it becouse I am very happy now... & just kind of information for the pros ...

Also I found problems ( no widgets or apps running behind) looking from System pannel monitoring is off

- Auto Brightness option doesn't work after restart (stays same)
- when Orientation option is selected the battery consumption is more or much more (maybe calculation)
- when the Bluetooth wifi and gps options are seleceted (means open) battery consuption or calculation is less than close...
- Bluetooth stereo has problems... buttons play pause not working stable
- Wifi doesn't connect after disconnected for a while... (screen policy set to when screen turns off)

Also advanced launcher is buggy ..

if drakaz can install adw launcher .... I am very happy ( also we can able to update it from market) becouse if i use it or other launchers dial pad contact list comes later or take time...

Android keybord don't have Turkish characters like Ş,Ğ, I, ş, ğ, ı if it's possible it is very good for us to have...

Android :: Switching Launcher Pro

Jun 25, 2010

I've got a short question: currently I'm running adw.launcher but I want to try launcher pro ... So my question is: WHen I install launcherpro and set it as default launcher, should I uninstall adw.launcher to have better performance? And if yes, are my settings and homescreens kept when I want to switch back to adw.launcher some time? I read about performance issues here somewhere, when adw.launcher with 5 full homescreens is running in background and somewhere, people stated one should remove all widgets from the homescreen before switching to a new launcher.

Android :: Speakerphone Switching App

Oct 20, 2010

Is there an app that automatically switches from speakerphone to ear piece based on the proximity detector?

I think it would be useful if there was an app that starts when in phone mode, and detects when the phone is being held to my ear and automatically switches from speaker to ear piece and back as the screen turns off or on based on the proximity detector.

With the more and more frequent state laws on hands free cell phone use while driving, something like this could be quite useful. I, for one would be willing to pay for something like this

I've got a problem with meebo IM. When I start it its icon appears in the top left on the notification bar, which is ok. But when I'm done chatting, how do I close it? back doesn't work, home doesn't work. I even downloaded the terminal but couldn't kill it with that either. Is that a bug in meebo or is android just like that (no closing of apps)?

Android :: Programmatically Switching GPS On / Off

Oct 4, 2010

I red in these discussion groups that you cannot programmatically turn on/off the GPS : Mark Murphy was exhaustive, as always. But i found a 3rd party App, in the market, that creates a widget capable of switching the GPS on/off. How did they do it? Are they using a different SDK ?

Android :: Switching-off/re-booting

Jul 21, 2010

I was just messsing about and flipping through screens and settings and noticed that the phones uptime was at 9 days. This is because at night I either tend to leave it on wifi or just put it to aeroplane mode.

But I was just wondering if there is any benefit to the phones OS or memory if it is occasionally switched off and rebooted? ( apart from saving a little battery obviously). Or is it perfectly acceptable to just keep it running if everything's ok?

Android :: G1 Phone Gets Slow After Switching It On For A While

Dec 13, 2008

My G1 phone slows down after a while from switching it on, and if I switched off and re-switched it on it will get back to its normal state. So any clue why is that happening? I downloaded many apps from the market, is that the reason? and is there any application that shows the running applications in the background and their CPU and memory usage? And when I open the messaging and scroll through the messages it is way too slow.

I've noticed some people swapping out their phones for 'issues'.How does this relate to the Android Market and apps you've purchased?If you swap to a new phone,will you be able to re-download apps we've paid for? or will we have to pay for it again?Also, what if the phone has a zagg or some other type of shield?Will Sprint replace this?or are we out of luck and have to purchase again?I have the static in the earpiece issue.we'll see how long I can last with that issue before it really gets on my nerves.

Android : Switching Phone For Christmas

Nov 18, 2010

I'm from the UK and currently using an N95 which although I really like is getting a little tired, old and feels slow compared to the newer phones.My contract with Orange is coming up due and they've said I can pick any phone at any price for free so thought I'd switch to android. I'm no stranger to messing with my N95 software so no need to be worried about suggesting a user friendly phone etc or if a phone can be improved by rooting etc. I'm willing to wait if there's anything really nice due in the next month or 2 but I'm basically after the best I can get my hands on especially hardware wise (as I'll have to wait 18 months+ for an upgrade).I've seen there could be new phones being released with 2ghz processors, 1gig ram etc which would allow me to keep up with updates. (I de-branded my n95 so I can use the latest firmware as i really dont like missing out on nice updates) Having a fairly decent camera would be a bonus as I am partial to taking the odd piccy.

General :: Switching To Android From IPhone 4S?

Jan 16, 2014

My contract with Verizon is up in the middle of February and my wife and I are planning on getting new phones and possibly switching carries (possibly to T-Mobile). Based on what's currently available I think if we stay on Verizon we'll get two Moto Xs, but if we switch to T-Mobile we'll go with the Nexus 5. I try to stay up on tech news, but if any new phones are expected in February or early March I'd be interested in hearing about them. I don't want to wait too long because my iPhone is out of warranty and starting to slowly die (for instance the on/off button no longer works).

HTC EVO 4G :: Reasons Used To Justify Switching To Android Still Exist

Jun 10, 2010

A couple of months ago I decided to jump on the Android bandwagon, starting with the Incredible then moving on to the Evo. Everything was going well, life was good, then Apple announces the iPhone 4! I watched the keynote in total awe and drooled when Jon I've explained how glorious the "new" iPhone was and how it will "change everything again." Then the dust settled. The iPhone 4 will be a great phone, however it doesn't offer anything new to me. Virtually all of the reasons I used to justify switching to Android still exist!

My take on the iPhone 4:
Excellent build quality (HTC should take notes)
Fantastic screen
Up to 32 Gig memory
Integrated Video Chat/Conferencing (Wifi Only)
Very thin
It's purdy
Pseudo multitasking
Glass back
For $25 month you can get 2Gig xfer

Here's why I STILL prefer the EVO on Sprint:
WiFi Mobile Hotspot (Saves me $30 per month over my Verizon MIFI)
WiFi Mobile Hotspot allows me to hop on my laptop or my 6 year old to stream Netflix on the iPad!
Sprint TV
Unlimited data baby!
4G
Text to Speech
Speech to Text
HDMI out
8 Megapixel w/dual Flash
Replaceable battery
Turn by turn directions
Voice search
I can VPN to my work computer
3G coverage! I paid $30 per month for Edge on the iPhone! Sprint offers 3G!
Ability to video chat over 3G/4G (Been using Fring)
Ability to transfer files via FTP to my host account
I can select an app to install without being kicked out of the Market!
I have the ability to create ringtones on the fly. No need to pay an additional fee to iTunes to "convert" a song.
Live wallpapers!
Built in radio
I've found the Amazon MP3 store to be much cheaper than iTunes. For example, Fray's "The Fray" is $9.99 on itunes vs. $5.00 on Amazon MP3!
Flash Lite
I can rotate my photos
I can expand my memory
Sprints plans are cheap as hell compared to AT&T
I can email photos at full resolution
How many times have iPhone users purchased an app, only to be disappointed? On the Market, you have 24 hours to test drive. Don't like it, full refund.
Notifications
Widgets

In all honesty, both phones are mind blowing. Look at the big picture and select what phone/service will benefit you the most.

Android :: Changing Screens - Switching Between Layouts

Jun 1, 2010

I am trying to create an app for android 1.5 which would be organized around 4-5 'screen's that will be changing in a given order.

So I start ma app with the first screen, which it's background and a button. When I click on the button a new screen appears with a different background and different options which lead to next screens. Sth. that is usually seen in games. The problem is that I need to pass a lot of data between those 'screens' like and array with recorded sound. My idea was to create a separate xml layout file for each screen and change the context in the activity class so ie:

CODE:............

A simple test app for 3 screens works this way but my I don't really like this approach and it seems to be inappropriate.

Is this the correct way of organizing such an app in android or should I take another approach - if I should, please give a more detailed advice on how to do this.
