Motorola Droid :: 2.2 Trick - Push Both Sides Of Screen / Icon Pop Up
Aug 24, 2010
Maybe this is already out there but I don't recall reading it. Anyway, at the bottom of the screen where the phone, apps and browser icons are, theres little dots on either side. Pushing one side or the other scrolls the screen to that direction but if you push both sides at the same time, icons for all five home screens will pop up and you can pick the one you want to go to instead of scrolling through the pages.

Instead of sliding across to unlock the phone. You can use one finger to hold the green icon, then you'll notice a little green icon on the other side of the screen (where the sound off icon usually is, it disappears when you hold the unlock icon). Then just tap that one too and it unlocks.

I live in Indiana so one person is needs to know. I only need an app that will run on the Droid X now. I have reported it to the FCC, and they said to get a recording of the call and as much information as possible.
It's E Business Group (602) and the are calling for Anthony which is the wrong number, but as soon as I even start to ask to be taken off their list they say "Sorry for bothering you" and hang up so quick I can't even get the words out.

If you lock the phone by pressing end, the screen goes blank instantly. If you press the end button to bring up the lock screen (do not unlock), and then quickly double click the end button, the screen fades in and out. Phone is still locked, so no real use. Discovered this in a meeting today. I forget what the meeting was about and before someone else says it, yes, this is completely pointless.

I can't figure this out. The only way I could stop the radio on Pandora was to hit the pause button. What is the trick?

I have been using Drodmod v1.0 for a while now and kinda bored. I've got it over clocked to 800mhz. Is it possible to make a nondroid backup using driodmod and lets say I want to upgrade to bugless beast rom. I know I can backup my apps using either astro or Titanium Backup utility, but can I take the nondroid backup and mix them into the bugless beast one so once i restore (bugless beast) it will have all of my information and apps already on there???

Sorry if this has already been said, but while I was typing on the keyboard I noticed something cool. If you type a text or sentence and you look back and notice that a word you tried to type got switched to a different word because of a missed key or just because of the predictive text, instead of moving the cursor back and erasing, you can just click on that word. This brings up the original suggestions along with what you actually typed even if you've moved past this word. Maybe the original Droid had this? I came from an HTC Droid Eris.

I lost the phone icon off of my screen. I have looked through the applications and I don't see anything to put the shortcut back on my screen. How do I get a phone icon back on my screen?

There seems to be lots of discussions on Battery life, so I did a test myself. I was getting about the same battery life as everybody else, about 6-7 hours with moderate usage. Which is what all the beta testers were getting pre release. I thought I would give something a try. First of all, when I picked up the phone it was about 75% charged. I charged it to 100%, and let it go down to about 30% that first day and then charged it. I followed this everyday for the first week, and was still getting the same battery life out of it. I never allowed the device to completely drain and shut off. Well I gave that a shot, and what did I find, My battery is lasting much longer, like doubled. So give this a try. I let the phone die, completely die so it shuts off. Then charge it 100% overnight. Worked for me, don't know if it will work for you, but give it a shot.

So I got my phone wet and there are some water spots inside the screen. I quickly pulled the battery out and dried the phone with a towel+shaking the hell out of it. I then got a container and poured white rice into it and threw my phone and submerged it in the rice. A day had passed and I opened the lid and took out my phone to see how it was doing. Well the water spots are still there but I can see that it's drying up, that's the good news. The bad news is that the rice went inside the small holes where the battery cover locks into the phone. Now every time I shake it, I hear the rice rattling inside my phone. Just a heads up if you ever do the rice drying trick. Either leave the battery cover on or cover up the holes with tape or something.

I just got my SGP Steinheil Crystal Clear Screen protector in the mail today. As I was applying it I noticed that the little circular cutout for the optical trackpad is nearly perfectly sized for the camera lens! No more complaining about the lens getting scratched when you set it down!

Is there a way to intercept an SMS with BroadcastReceiver as for example here but without showing any notifications to the user and immediately deleting the message that contains for example some keyword
What I need is to have some communication between android phones, one to one, and I thought that sending SMS messages would solve the problem, but the SMS notification are not needed for that, maybe the WAP PUSH messages would better for that but I have no idea how to send them from android phone.

I haven't confirmed if this trick can be achieved on the default or other home launchers, but just now, I was able to overlap widgets together. Could be a bug with LauncherPro. I can actually press in between the top layer of widgets to access the underlying Facebook widget.

How do I set up e-mail push service for gmail to Dx? I have the account added and can manually go to the account and tell it to sync and it works. It never updates by itself. I went to settings> data manager> data delivery and "email and corporate sync is a darker color and I can not click it.

Is anyone getting push email from Gmail right now? I understand there were some issues due to the Chinese hack but was wondering if it worked for anyone. I get it, I just have to manually refresh. Anyone noticed any other issues as a result of this? Any work arounds to get push working again?

Does anyone else have a problem with the back cover not being tight on the sides? Sort of makes a "popping" noise when I press on the sides and it drives me crazy! Actually, almost where ever I press, it makes little popping noises, as though the case is really loose.

Is anyone else seeing slower push from Gmail? Its taking 20-30 minutes for me to get my email on my droid over the last 2 days. I haven't downloaded any new software but have gone to getting email within minutes to getting email within 30 minutes if I am lucky.

I have a question regarding push vs poll email. Is there ever a valid reason to configure polling on a push email account (ie. as a "backup" if the push fails for some reason)? In other words, if I'm currently receiving pushed email, is it completely useless and redundant to poll the folders as well? Or is it possible polling might work in the event push doesn't? I receive emergency alerts from my work so I'm just wondering if I should set up a 15-minute poll in case an alert doesn't get pushed to my phone. Or can I expect that whenever push fails, polling won't really do any good either?

Anyone else noticed that Gmail is not pushing properly?Appears to have been happening all day on my DX (2.2).Manual refresh pulls emails from varying times (saw several at one hour+ between receipt and pull). Hope it's a temporary glitch with big G's servers.

It seems that if you do not forward SMS to your Droid, it will not push SMS notifications to you through the google voice app. This greatly hinders my ability to just do all SMS through Google Voice and skip paying for it monthly. It's especially odd because both Gmail and Gtalk are push.
