    hey guys,
    i do not know how i missed this but spare parts now works for gingerbread. finally!

    here are the details:
    Spare Parts Plus! PRO allows you to enable and change some hidden settings of your Android device. This app is based on the open code provided by Google but updated to work with Android 2.33 GingerBread and tested on CyanogenMod7.
    Note that stock GingerBread ROMs do not have the Battery History activity. You need CM7 or Custom Rom to see this. I am working on a fix for a future version.
    For example:
    - Enable/Disable compatibility mode to allow Apps to work at full screen size on Galaxy Tab and other large screen devices
    - Control windows animation speeds or disable them entirely to speed up your device!
    - Control windows transition speeds or disable them entirely to speed up your device!
    - Control haptic feedback
    - View battery history and information
    - View usage statistics
    - Control WiFi sleep policy to keep WiFi connected
    - No annoying AdMob adverts
    - And much, much more!
    This is the first release and more features and settings will be added soon. Look out also for our Blade Buddy program for rooted devices which allows you to change, optimize and speed up your phone even more!
    Warning: some ROMs do not have battery history activity built-in. The app will force close if you try to run and this activity is not built into the ROM.
    A note on permissions: the program requests the following permissions:
    android.permission.SET_ANIMATION_SCALE
    android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION
    android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS
    android.permission.INTERNET
    android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
    android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE
    These are required to change your settings and also to enable analytics and bug-tracking.

    here it is on the market:

    I thought this was already included with CM7 and Decks?

    you could be right, but i thought that certain things were broke. i could be wrong. i have not used spare parts in a while so i forget. but i do know that spare parts did not work with gingerbread sense. stoked that i found this today.

    Also, what about this for a thread:
    Mizzou's App of the Day ;) You'd just post great links to apps. I forget what the other one you posted was, but I grabbed that. --EDIT: It was Swype.

    I just have no idea what it is I am supposed to be seeing in the first place and not sure how to use the info to find out about stuff like wakelocks to begin with. :thinking:

    I think a tutorial thread would be in order! :p

    I went ahead and froze the one i was using, the free version, by the way. It looks like it has a few options you could actually mis set and mess up your battery life, if I understood them correctly.
