I keep seeing posts about disabling the OTA capability on a rooted Droid, and about how I can rename .apk files to .bak or something like that. It all sounds SO wonderful, and I�d LOVE to do it, but HOW do I do it? I need it explained to me, preferably to where I can do it from my Emulator on the actual phone, if possible.

Is there a way to rename apps that I have downloaded? I had to download xscope because my Browser doesn't work after 2.1 and would like to name "xScope Lite" something better like "xscope" or "browser"
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have had my Eris for a few weeks and have come across one really annoying problem...evertime I reboot the phone several of my third party apps rename themselves and the icon mutates into something else. The only way to fix is to uninstall/reinstall, but as soon as I reboot it does it all over again. The apps I have problems with:
Google Sky Map
Where
Layar
My Coupons
TasKiller
So I used the "one touch" root method that I found in these forums, I think it was from Alldroid. Anyway so now I can no longer multi touch to zoom. Anyone else notice this or have an idea for the fix?
Also I have no cursor while typing in this box...?
My current mobile phone is an LG/Sprint Optimus S, whose camera has 3.2 mpx resolution. My previous (and first) smart phone was an HTC Pure which runs Windows Mobile 6.5 and is perhaps better known as the Topaz, Pure being its AT&T edition. The camera on that phone does 5.0 mpx, so it's obviously much better. Even on just the small device screens, you can see the quality difference at a glance.
For a particular objective, I need to be able to take good pictures on the go, but have the Internet connection provided by my current Android device. In other words, I want to take pictures with the HTC, beam them to my Optimus, and then use that to send out the pictures. I was having a bit of trouble getting the devices to work well together in their native states, so I flashed a version of Froyo onto the old HTC. Having done that, I found that the Bluetooth connection between the devices worked quite well. But when I try to use one of the Android camera apps to take pictures on the HTC, it's not taking full advantage of the lens' capability. The photos show up on the screen about the size of a large postage stamp; in fact not much bigger than a thumbnail picture.
Do Android camera apps not work at any better resolution than 3.2?
Can you?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just realized that you can add folders to the home screens by long pressing an empty space, then choosing folders. There are options to add New Folder, All contacts, etc. After adding a new folder and dragging app shortcuts, I can't seem to figure out how to rename the folders from the default "Folder" name.

If I'm ever going to get my money's worth on this phone I MUST use it for GPS... Thus I MUST have it on a mount cause I want to actually have a 2nd way to charge it too. 5 hours of uptime is not my thang!!!
Anywho, I might want to use a generic in the future anyways since I might actually get the 3200mah battery... Maybe...Oh the agnoy of choice...
At Shazam's website, you can sign up and create an account. Once done, you can view songs you tagged. Problem is, the Shazam application, at least on Android, has no "login" mechanism. It doesn't know what songs I've tagged... Am I missing something ?
Anyone with Shazam on a BB or iPhone have a login capability?
