General :: Custom Rom Without Desktop - HTC Incredible S
Jan 23, 2013
OK, so I have an old phone (HTC Incredible S) and I want to load in a custom rom so that on start up only two apps are running and that's it. No desktop, no nothing else.
Fist of all I want to make sure this would even work. I imagine I would have control over the device via the ADB USB link but I would need to make sure that's ALWAYS available. I am an avid Linux user and cross compile on a monthly basis so I can learn the procedure easily enough.
I would be running a config app (for wifi, screen brightness, etc) that would also send back the accelerometer and compass data to my PC. The second app is an XRDP client so I can log into my desktop. This way I can have the power of my desktop on a portable device (around the house) but should increase battery life significantly. If this was to work then I can pick up a $200 used 10" tablet to make the setup more useful.

I have had a problem with my incredible desktop alarm not waking me at all. I have had my phone replaced once and the replacement phone has worked very sporadically when I set the alarm to go off for me to wake up at 6:30 AM. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong? Has anybody else had a similar problem and how did you resolve it?

I have only one or two sites I regularly visit that require the mobile version of the site to be rendered. It's too much of a pain to constantly go into settings and check and uncheck the mobile box. Is there a way to make this easier?

This thing doesn't seem as if though it was designed to be used in landscape at all. The desktop can not go landscape along with many other programs.
But the biggest issue I am seeing is that the landscape keyboard doesn't seem to assume the same rules as the qwerty portrait. When you are in landscape and make a typing mistake it will not auto correct. No matter what the settings. If you searching something in google or typing in chat program it will not stop suggesting words to you. No matter the settings. But the worst offending issue is that in a chat program like meboo you can not see your conversation while typing.

I want to go 1 >> 2 >> 3 >> and stop. And ofcourse back 3>> 2 >> 1 and stop. This is how is my tablet working, and I want to "tell" phone to behave the same. Have you experiences with some setting / utility / system modification that can do it ?

In Gingerbread, I could click menu button at my home screen and choose "Edit" and all my desktop screen will minimize and I can add screen or remove screen (including all widgets and shortcuts) just by dragging the screen to the bottom where it says Remove.
I could not find any way to do this in ICS?

I uninstalled some system applications on my phone and I instantly regretted it and restored applications from back-ups using Wondershare MobileGo for Adroid. However, although it seems all the applications are working again, when I unlock the screen, I get a black screen - no desktop, no application list, but with the notification bar on top which works properly. The clock and calendar are displayed on the unlock screen and the alarm clock woke me up... I got some notifications on the black screen: process.android.acore, process.android.gapps and process.android.vending stopped working, process system stopped working.

I would like to run .exe files for Windows (Desktop) PC on android.
I know most of you would say it's not possible, but I don't care if you say that. Everything is possible in this world. You just have to want it.
Most important reasons why it shouldn't work:
- EXEs are compiled for Windows
- CPU commands are different to the x86 processors
- WinAPI isn't available on Android
The application I want to run, will run on a couple of houndred of (Tablet) devices, a remote connection is not the way to go. The application is private, and not available on the market. There is no other application that could replace it.
Any VM for Android, or an other solution -> Performance doesn't matter!
For the beginning I want to try to run a small windows application, like notepad.exe on android devices. Besides of that there is also a way to run Win98 on Android. I havent tested it yet tho.

I need to edit the tags on some MP3 files on my GS3. I've tried Tag & Rename, but it doesn't recognize the device when connected via USB. good desktop app for editing MP3's on my phone via USB connection. I know there are some apps that can do this, but I have quite a few and doing it on the phone can be a strain. I would also like to avoid offloading all the files from the phone- editing them- and reloading them..

Currently have a droid x phone (upgrading to Samsung GSIII shortly), but have never figured out how to dynamically sync bookmarks between it and my desktop. On the flip side, I have an ipad and through icloud, bookmarks are dynamically synched between the two - add bookmark in IE on PC and it appears on ipad, as well as the other way around.
I have found posts where people say on export/import, but that is a one time shot. Looking for something that is automated.

G+ messenger app within android G+ app works fine. However, I would like to be able to run Messenger on my desktop computer as well. It is much less cumbersome to type there. However, I don't seem to find any possibility to access it via G+ app in my chrome desktop browser. Also, there is no external app to run it. The only thing available is google talk, which does not include/show any of my messenger-conversations.

I`m looking for an app to lock two files on the desktop of an tablet.
The company i work for is looking to supply their prospects with a tablet (for promotional reasons offcourse) . The idea is that a video and a pdf are locked to the desktop of that tablet.
Alternatively a solution that would periodically copy the shortcuts back to the desktop would be an option aswell.

I have Sony Xperia S running Android and i am wondering if it is possible to modify the boot loader to accept windows ISO from USB stick or from internal storage? or is it possible to somehow convert windows desktop ISO into a ROM somehow? the reason i am asking is because i like the unrestricted features of windows and the ability to run .EXE on my phone would be brilliant and being able to use skype for group calls which is not featured on android yet.
