View 21 RepliesI have just bought a Motorola Moto G and am waiting for a simm from free.fr to arrive. That's a week of waiting! I have been looking through the various bits on the phone and decided to put a password on it. I have done this on all of my previous, simple, phones with no problems, but now that I have done it on the MG all I can get is the phone dial screen. No pptions for any apps, settings, etc. Just the dial screen.
I have tried the factory reset using the power/volume buttons but when I get to the second selection, with the 'distressed android' showing I don't get any options with it, just the android.
So, how do you guys and girls keep your desire-screens clean? What are the do's and dont's of good screen-keeping?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have little spots on my screen. They aren't dead pixels and they can't be cleaned off. It looks like they are like little spots of residue left over from the screen protector that was on the phone when you buy it. But they don't come off. They're only noticeable when the background is white.
Second, the keyboard is wavy. It's like the rows of the keyboard go up and down, almost like the keyboard didn't fit well in the area it's supposed to go. So the spaces between the rows are lifting up a bit and creating a wavy keyboard. This isn't really much of an issue, but just curious if other people see this as well.
Do I need to wipe everything? DO I apply from recovery just like a ROM.

Am desperate to install it as have read in couple of places on XDA forums that it increases the media volume which is a big issue on my device (yes, yes I know some of you get blown away by yours but trust me I'm not deaf or stupid, it's just ridiculously quiet). Anyway I have managed to download a zip of the update but am confused as to what to do next.

I've tried:
-Hboot > recovery > install file from zip >PB31IMG
-Hboot > recovery > apply: update.zip
-rom manager > Install rom from SD card
-rename PB31IMG update.zip >Hboot >recovery > apply:update.zip
Not to mention a few other variations. Do I need to restore from backup, then flash my radio, and then apply the new ROM?
I am trying to apply common style to different textview that can be either defined in a layout xml file or programmatically and that does not seem to work for some attributes: My style in styles.xml is:
<style name="ListName"> <item name="android:colorForeground">#f0f</item> <item name="android:padding">4sp</item> <item name="android:textSize">30sp</item> <item name="android:textColor">#CCC</item> <item name="android:gravity">left</item> <item name="android:typeface">serif</item> <item name="android:textStyle">bold</item> <item name="android:colorBackground">#999</item> </style>
In my layout xml i have <TextView style="@style/ListName" ...></ TextView> and in my activity java class i have: TextView nametv = new TextView(this,null,R.style.ListName); However some parameters does not seem to work very well: - textStyle to bolditalic does not seems to be recognized - textColor/colorForeground/colorBackground does not work at all. I have been through the documentation, but could not find precise reference documentation for that attributes, nor sample for the color setting.
i'm trying to define a theme for an appwidget, and have it applied at the application level. i have a theme like, <style name="theme.dark"> <item name="android"background">#000000</item> </style> in my manifest, i set android:theme="@style/theme.dark". however, when i run the appwidget, it does not pick up the items from the style. i tried setting style="@style/theme.dark" on an individual element in my view layout, and that does work ... but that's not what i want. i don't want to call out a specific style="..." for each element in my view. this page...................

View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a theme off the market for GoSMS and GoContacts (the theme also has ones for GoLocker and GoLauncher as well which work fine). I have downloaded and installed the themes and gone through the steps to apply it but it does not show the theme. I had read that there is an issue with themes running Jelly Bean and typically if you can get the dev to email you the apk it will work. I have tried contacting the dev multiple times with no response. Any other way to get these items to work correctly? I know there are other options than the ones I selected but I really liked the look of this theme and am kind of picky. The items are linked below:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem in the Preferences Activity, in the main preferences the theme shows ok, but if I get to a sub preference, the theme gets messy, it is not white as it should, it is all dark, and the font is black so you can't see much, and when I start clicking on any items they will get sometimes white as they should but revert to black soon after. This is only happens on 2.1, in both the real device and emulator. Tested on the emulator running 1.6 and it was working correctly.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is an easy way to change the boot animation on my EVO as well as the splash screen. I do realize there is a long way to do it without root, but I am operating from a Mac. If there were some rooted apps that do this, please point me to them.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy phone is currently rooted and it was done using unrEVOked. I did not apply any custom ROMS; the only change I made was moving the Amazon and VZ Navigator apps. I selected the option to reboot and install the update when I was prompted to do so, but it just became stuck at a screen that said "Rebooting..." and it never changed. I powered it off and then back on, but the update never applied. I have not been prompted to install the update since then. I would like to apply the November update using the easiest method. If I have to unroot it, I don't care because root access isn't that important to me. I have read these instructions, but they're incomplete as they don't show you how to actually perform the steps listed, specifically step #1

View 2 Replies View RelatedOne approach I've looked at is to use the preview callback, asking for a JPEG buffer. Unfortunately, the HTC phones I've tried this on all call back at several second intervals and give me an NV12 buffer regardless of the pixel format you specify. (Anyone know the behaviour on a droid?) I can code my way around the NV12 hassle but I can't exactly do much when the callbacks are so seldom; I want around 10 fps.
The approach I was considering was making an opencore codec for mjpeg. Which leads me to two questions before I start:
1) can third-parties make and install opencore codecs, or is this strictly locked down? Is it to just drop an .so in the right folder, or?
2) do the HTC phones use the default encoders? (i.e. will using the same way the default opencore reference codecs get their pixel buffers work on the phone?)
I want to apply theme over setting application wide. So I implemented below code but there was no effect.
1. AndroidMenifest.xml
<application android:label="@string/settings_label" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher_settings" android:theme="@android:style/Widget.ListView" android:taskAffinity=""> -> added Widget.ListView style provided in android system and I changed style.xml file like below
2. FrameWork/base/core/res/res/values/styles.xml
before change : <item name="android:listSelector">@android:drawable/ list_selector_background</item>
After change: <style name="Widget.ListView" parent="Widget.AbsListView"> <item.................................
Ok I'm new to this rooting thing so bear with me. I want to root my vibrant but I have some questions. Does the one click root work? And how does it work? Also what does the lag fix do? And do I need a computer to use it? Will rooting and applying lag fix not allow me to get froyo? Again I'm sorry if these questions have been asked.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSubject pretty much explains it all. Google wasn't much help.Essentially after Fresh Updater (from 0.5.3) downloads a theme and attempts to apply, my phone reboots with the recovery screen and a "?" above the phone icon instead of a "!"Any help is wonderfully appreciated.Edit: I say instead of a "!" but maybe this isn't even what it's supposed to do.

Make sure that before you run Unrevoked, you remove all the other zip files from the root of your SD card at least that worked for me - Unrevoked would not get past the "Hboot" message and phone would reboot in an unrooted state. Once I cleaned them out and re-ran Unrevoked the root proceded normally.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a puzzle game for Android 2.2, what I want to do is a simple fade-in fade-out of the whole game screen, during level changing. I tried with an AlphaAnimation from 1.0f to 0.0f and vice-versa, and it works perfectly if I start it from a View, but if I try to start it from the SurfaceView which I used to write my game engine nothing happens.
I put a completely black ImageView on top of my surfaceview, and applied the animation to this imageView. This is my layout
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="<not allowed to post external links...>"
android:orientation="vertical"

I am using HTC Wildfire for one month. I have not rooted my phone. I would like to install new theme in my mobile. I have downloaded many theme packs(Icon pack). I am not able to install all at once.I installed launcher pro in my set. How can I install theme all together which means not changing the icon one by one?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a difference between flashing a ROM, say DE03 with recovery 3.1.1, versus applying the ROM directly from SD Card? So far I have flashed the Moment by adding the DE03 3.1.1 Recovery ROM from the laptop's Samsung Moment binary folder. I wonder if I copied that to the root of the SD card, can I just flash it there anytime I want? The reason I want to do this is because it seems that it is suggested to flash back to stock prior to trying out a new ROM, and it would be faster to just load the ROM from SD card than hooking it up to the computer everytime to do this.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSo I am pretty computer savvy but just getting into the phone scene. Wondering what site is best for the hacker side talk of phones?
Androidcommunity vs Androidforums vs XDA dev forums?
Which is better for instructions on rootings and applying custom ROMs?
Which is better for finding ROMs?
Which has more users?
Which has more experts?
Anyone familiar with the other site or one I may not know about can fill me in a bit? I seem to like this site the most but if there is more information elsewhere, I may need to pool my resources. I would prefer for android forums to be my 1 stop shop n go.
so using this I got it working with Defrost 2.6a and 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip. I then poked around in the Defrost app and saw the battery mod so I applied it. After a while, though, I decided I didn't like it and wanted to go back to this one. Here's the stupid part - I then went into ROM Manager and applied it. Now, the phone is stuck in a boot loop with the Nexus One animation. I am sure there's an easy fix, but I seriously don't know what I'm doing. I'm just flying by the seat of my pants here. I did a back up using both ROM Manager and Titanium Backup. I can get to recovery mode, but can't find any backups.
