View 8 RepliesWhen talking on the speaker phone, the display shuts off after a few seconds during the conversation. I used to be able to press the volume toggle and the screen would turn back on in case I needed to put in numbers or something. But with Kaos v37 the screen will only turn back on if I hit the end button, which of course then hangs up the call. Anybody else having this issue?

View 23 Replies View RelatedI want to know if anyone has tried the new 2.2 sense roms? And if so, what is the best so far? The main reason for this post though, is that I want to know if there is a rom that has the keyboard of CELB and KAOS and NONSENSIKAL, as well as the dialer? Or is that something that I can go download and use it on whatever rom that I choose?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHere are a few simple tweaks I discovered to make your Kaos Froyo rom as fast or faster than most 2.1 based roms. These settings make a world of difference in how the phone responds and make Froyo a joy to use!
1. Ditch Adw and install Launcher Pro. 90% of the slowness comes from Adw!
2. Go to settings/display/animation and turn off all animations. They might look neat, but youll be surprised at how fast the phone is without them.
3. Under LauncherPro preferences, go to Advanced Settings and change the opening speed to 10 for both options.
4. Install setcpu and set it for 245,710 for normal use, and 245,480 for when the screen is off. Kaos rom is already overclocked to 710 so this is just for extra battery life.
5. reboot the phone after applying the tweaks and enjoy a very fast eris.
Seriously, after doing this my phone flies like it has never done before on any 2.1 based rom. Changing between apps is instant and everything is extremely responsive. I love this rom!
Giving it a second shot. So far its been ok. Took a half hour and 4 reboots before I got it stable. That does not include the 2 reboots it did by itself. Also Anyone have a suggestion for a replacement for the gallery app in 2.2. It is really slow and sucks. It is visually pleasing but I want to set a wallpaper quickly and not wait 5 min for it cache all my images. At this point however I do see myself going back to xtr... just no comparison speed wise but I am going to give it a few days solid testing.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI really, really, really like this ROM and I have looked at four different ones. The one thing I noticed is that the automatic brightness doesnt seem to work. Or at least, when it's dark, the phone's brightness which is too low, never changes.Am I supposed to add something else to the phone? I wiped factory and dalvick. I have v30 of Froyos.

Got other questions? Visit his thread (above) over on XDA...

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy phone dropped from my pocket into the toilet. It was in there for no longer than 5 seconds. I took out the battery and tried to dry everything off. In a panic I turned it back on to see if it would work. I wasn't thinking at all. It started to turn on, then the screen flickered and everything went black. I dried it out properly and it still won't turn on. I've plugged it into the charger, nothing. Is my phone now useless? My mom says will not buy me another phone until the contract is up, in over a year. Is there anything I can do? Or did I completely screw myself?
If my phone is gone, can I still save my contacts and/or pictures?
I am constantly finding programs running on my phone, regardless of what I've used. For instance, "Easy tether", which I never use while in town, would come up as "running". "Where's my droid", which have not used since installing 2 months ago... or "Voice dialer? What makes things run, when they haven't been used?
View 12 Replies View RelatedSo I've heard a lot about it, so i decided to flash it and it wont let me press the android after it's been loaded. The android will flash white on screen, but wont let me proceed with setting up the phone. I wiped and flashed again, and it's doing the same thing. Anyone know the cause of this? So to get me through today i re-flashed Froyo v30 and its running slow as hell, the browser moves incredibly slow and the menus are leggy too. I've flashed it before and had a great experience so i was just wondering if anybody knew what was going on.

I am running the 2.1 leak from a few weeks ago.
Anyone else able to do this? Just curious and looking to spread good cheer.
I've created multiple sub calendars within my standard gmail calendar account to managed my kids calendars. Doesn't look as though these calendars will come over to my Eris running 1.6. Is that correct? Any work around or am I missing something?
In the calendar option on the phone I see:
My calendar
My work gmail calendar
Outlook
Very new to this world of custom roms, rooting etc. I have a droid eris i got in a trade. it has kaos froyo v31. Iwant to activate the phone, but am having a couple issues i would like to resolve before doing so. When i try to use the camera, the phone powers itself off and then back on. And when i dial the *228 to activate it I have no dial pad to select the option to program the phone.

I installed the YouTube HQ .apk from HTC EVO 4G and it worked flawlessly.
Is it possible to port the stock camera app from the EVO for use on the Eris? I like the handy "on screen" shutter button.
I just downloaded this Android System Information free from teh Market, and I thought I'd let you guys know about it. It's pretty damn awesome. It basically tells you everything you wanna know about your phone including every spec, every task running and how much CPU it is eaiting in real time, it has logs and everything. I highly recommend getting this app.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe background (example:Splash screen) that i have developed for my app is being rendered very badly on some android devices.By bad i mean the actual composition of brightness,contrast, sharpness all is getting very messed up, resulting in a very different background color than the one i originally created.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to run the Android Camera application from my development board for about 2 hours continuously.
I want to disable the phone lock screen that comes and shuts down the app.
Android's textView does not correctly input characters when left-to- right Unicode characters, such as those of Hebrew or Arabic, are used. For languages such as Arabic, morph transformation is also required that is not done correctly either (or at all!).This is also obvious when using Facebook App on Android to read posts in LTR languages, which is completely messed up and totally illegible.Can someone from Android OS address this? I would like to extend our patented virtual keyboard (MessagEase) for Entering Hebrew, Persian, and Arabic, among other languages, but currently it's impossible to do so.

Only in certain circumstances, and when that specific view is already rendered, I need to increase the margin. Is it possible at all? workaround?
View 5 Replies View RelatedJust a word of warning - I installed the OTA update when it popped up and it installed just fine. However, my SD card is now completely useless. I cannot read it from my phone or computer. It doesn't even show that it is there. I lost all my photos and music. Bummer! Learn from my experience and remove the SD card before installing the update, just in case.
View 49 Replies View RelatedSo the situation is this, I have a ListView that is embedded in two LinearLayout ViewGroups to form a screen. BaseAdapter.get View() (the implementation of the ListAdapter) is typically called n times (where n is numElements) to render the screen. The problem I have is this set of calls is being repeated for every ViewGroup that the list is contained in...So for a Layout like this:
-LinearLayout --Linearlayout ---ListView
The adapters get View() is being called n*3 times (3 = 1 for the parent LinerarLayout, one for the child LinearLayout and one for the List itself).
This is obviously a problem when the items in the List are expensive to build (even with recycling).
So I'm looking for some guidance on this, as the documentation doesn't seem to note this behavior from what I can see.
A small, basic example of the source is located on my post here http://www.anddev.org/listview_getting_rendered_multiple_times-t5290.... with more details Oswell as a ready made eclipse project(also attached below) if anyone is keen to try it out.
I have yet to try this on an actual device, but expect similar results. Anyway, long story short, whenever I run my app on the emulator, it crashes due to an out of memory exception.
My code really is essentially the same as the camera preview API demo from google, which runs perfectly fine.
The only file in the app (that I created/use) is as below-
CODE:.......
So I was wondering if this is happening to anyone else. If my time since last reboot is high(I am saying over 200hrs) and I use my camera it will stay running in the background. The only way I have found to cure it is to reboot.
