I cant find the settings menu for Helix. I have gone though my apps list, installed programs, search function and the whole settings menu. I even went into the market and tried to open it through there... Where is it at?
It is definitely still on my phone as it is still in use and the market says "installed".

Can someone tell me what the 'MIN' value is on the Droid X under the Menu -> Settings -> About -> Status? It appears to be a phone number but it isn't mine.
This is just under the 'My Phone Number' field (which does have the correct phone number) and just above the MEID.
Is there any way to make the settings menu icons display in color like on the incredible? Seems a shame to have a HD display but all the options are in black and white.

1. I made it my default without thinking.
2. I don't really want to do a nandroid backup but I will if there is no solution
3. My phone won't boot to safe mode..After the long vibrate it just restarts the red eye.
4. Tried battery pull I will uninstall via. adb if someone can give me a the commands required to do this. I tried adb uninstall but I don't know the apk name of HelixLauncher.
So I attempted to hack my droid to wifi tether but I ended up getting stuck at one step. I decided to give up so I want to restore my droid to factory settings, but when I rebooted my phone into recovery mode and factory reset, there is a superuser app in the app menu. I think it's factory restoring to a custom image. Is there a way to restore it the way I got it when I walked out of the Verizon store?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI did a search and didn't find this specific problem mentioned so here it goes.
The Eris in question (isn't mine but I'm trying to help the owner out), has of course, horrible battery issues. So, first thing I wanted to do was see if there was a built-in power-manager app like on the Motorola Droid. There wasn't so I downloaded one of the many brightness toggle widgets.
The first widget, when clicked brought up a small menu to select brightness. While that menu was up the brightness would change as it should have but would immediately change back to what it was when that menu closed.
After that I looked in options, disabled auto-brightness, and installed a new widget. This one is a simple press to change brightness in increments. When I push the button the brightness changes momentarily and then resets to whatever the slider in the Settings is at. I've tried moving that slider and that setting is what it always defaults to.
Right now the only way to adjust the brightness is in the settings menu and nothing else will work even though auto-brightness is turned off. Is there any way around this? I'd really like to be able to get it so it can be easily adjusted without having to go through so many steps.
EDIT: Playing around with it further, I tapped the widget to go to 100% brightness and of course the screen dimmed back down to 0%. I then went to the settings menu and as soon as I entered the "Sound and Display" menu, the brightness jumped up to what I had set it at with the widget. After that I can hit the Home key or otherwise leave the menu and the brightness will be properly set... until the screen times out. If the screen times out and I wake it up, it's back to 0% brightness.
I was playing around in my Eris and found a few apps that I have not installed. How do you open and use these apps?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI just thought that I would share the differences with my home screen between sense and helix. The bottom bar on helix is perfect, and can be used to change the default dialer and still have it 'stuck' on the bottom. Helix gives you a lot of space to clean up, and you can add/remove screens and get rid of clutter. If your a freak about the layout of your phone, like me, you should really give helix a try.
The only thing I miss is the HTC animated weather widget, is there any way it could be ported over?
They obviously use a different source for the actual weather information, but I don't think the HTC weather widget is that integrated into sense that it wouldn't work on helix...Can anyone explain why it doesn't (or so far hasn't been ported)?

im supposed to go to the settings screen after pressing the menu button on the phone and pressing on the "Settings" option.but it isnt happening.
My app requires a network connection so if they don't have one enabled I prompt them to start it. I do this by calling the Wireless & Network settings Activity as such:
CODE:...............
However, when I run my app in the debugger, onActivityResult is called immediately as my calling activity is exited when it should be called once the settings menu if exited. This premature call also sends a resultCode of Activity.RESULT_CANCEL.
Here is the code from onActivityResult:

I am dealing with a problem discussed on many forums but they all say go to the "settings" menu on the "Android SDK and AVD Manager" screen. Yet I have installed in on multiple machines and do not see a Settings menu. Where is the menu? I have it installed on Windows XP and Vista.

The ability to password protect specific submenus in the Settings menu (i.e. specifically Privacy, Applications, and Location & Security).
Is this possible without rooting?
My children (twin boys) have phones (samsung i5500) and I'd like to be able to remove access to the settings option, mainly to prevent them messing around with passwords which they often forget.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI don't understand this. If I go to menu - applications, I have manage apps and running services. My running services only shows essential apps running. When I go into manage apps and click on the running tab, it shows a ton of non essential apps running that I have used. My confusion, and question is, which menu is correct? For example, facebook does not show under running services but it shows under the running tab in the manage apps menu. I force close it and it comes back on. Which one is correct?

In the settings menu on my DI there is a menu category called "accessibility". When i hit that button, it brings up a dim option to check or uncheck, but it can't be checked. What is this for, and how is it accessed?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI suspect the order of the items under menu/settings is listed by frequency of use, as expected by HTC, or Google. Is there any way the order can be re-arranged? Perhaps alphabetized? Wouldn't it be easier to use this way? I think on an old phone I had you could long press and then re-arrange items like this. I could be all wet. This is not a major concern, and I really like my Hero.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe Android settings menu is a list of options, each with some subtext (in the vanilla Google implementation; not in Sense UI) and an image (a down arrow in vanilla, custom icons in Sense UI). They are selectable and open a sub menu (Activity?) when clicked, like a button.
What is this widget? Is it available in the android.widget package somewhere? Is there a way to simulate it?
After using home++, when i hit the arrow to bring up all my apps, the only app that show is "settings" . i can get to my other apps that are shown on a home screen, but the ONLY app showing on the pull down screen is settings! i shut down, removed battery, and restarted twice, but still no luck.
I know a lot of others use home++, so is there something in the settings that went wrong, or what??! help! i love the home++.. when it works!

I just got an Android running 2.3.5 and I really don't like the blue in the settings menus. Is there a way to get the colors back to gray scale? Also, is there a way to make all menus/submenus alphabetized? I don't know why they aren't.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been playing around with a few different ROMs to find the one that's the most stable for me, but something weird has happened. Most of the ROMs I like the best have the vanilla dialer which I love but the look of the dialer has changed and I'm not sure why.
At one point the dialer had the END, SPKR, MUTE etc., on the call screen so if you pulled the phone away from your ear you could see those buttons. Now when I'm on a call I have a little tab that I have to pull up to access the number pad and I have to hit MENU to bring up the END, SPKR and MUTE settings. I really want to go back to the way it was before. This has happened on several ROMs.
I'm trying to understand what each process is and if any are vital to the phone that should NOT be turned off?
I'd like to kill useless processes.
Does anyone recognize what these do?
HTC Message Uploader/Upload Message Service -?
Messages - TransactionService -?
Sync Service - I have the Power Control widget and I have the sync unactivated?
Touch Input -?
Calendar - Obex Service - Is this just my calendar widget - I don't have any events scheduled?
