    Root Transparent Notification Area?

    I haven't been rooted in a while, since the OG Droid a couple years ago. One of the things I liked about doing root was making the notification area / status bar translucent or transparent. I recall installing this involved flashing a zip. Is there something like that for the Rezound? I'm not...

    Armbands for Running

    Hi, I upgraded from the original Incredible. I used to shove that thing into an iPhone armband for running, but obviously the larger Rezound isn't going to fit. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with armbands for the Rezound or other similar 4.3" phones (the Rezound is a bit longer...

    Root GApps on Nookie Froyo without ADB?

    I've been going crazy the last few hours looking for how to install GApps onto Nookie Froyo (0.68) without using ADB. I figured there should be some simple flashable zip that I can use in ClockworkMod recovery, but that doesn't seem to exist. I tried using the CM7 one with no luck. I tried...

    Root Gmail 2.3 Update?

    So the new 2.3 update to Gmail that's on the Market now isn't installing. I read somewhere that this could be a problem for root users and that we would need to use Titanium Backup to uninstall Gmail before installing it again. Has anyone who ran into this problem successfully upgraded their...

    Root Removing that constant GPS/location icon?

    I was wondering if it was possible to remove the persistent location icon that takes up space on the status bar. It doesn't make sense to me that the location icon ALWAYS has to be there, whether you enable GPS tracking or not, to let you know one way or another. Especially since the Motorola...

    Help Disabling Flash Lite?

    I was wondering if it was possible to disable Flash lite. Most of the Flash content I see are ads, and most of the actual Flash content I want to use don't work (except videos) anyway, so I'd like to just disable it, save some bandwidth and battery, until we get true Flash in 2.2.

    Free app for resizing photos?

    I like the Incredible's 8MP camera, but hate the huge resulting filesize that makes it inconvenient if not impossible to upload the photos anywhere. Is there a free app that allows me to resize photos to resolutions I want? I tried Picsay, but the free version only allows it to be resized to a...

    twicca BETA: Excellent Twitter client with great UI

    Even at beta, it's my favorite Android Twitter client. The UI is simple and clean. 4 buttons at the bottom for status updates, replies, DMs, and to refresh. Click on a tweet, and you get a popup list of options, including profiles of all the @ users, links to all the hashtags, and any URL links...

    Help Way to disable Location Setting Icon?

    So obviously, I need to enable Location Settings in order to get GPS ability in Google Maps. But I don't see why it needs to have an icon taking up valuable space in the status bar (as a side note, there's an icon to indicate that it's OFF, so you can't NOT have a location setting icon on...

    NewsRob Pro: Excellent Google Reader syncing RSS app

    Has pretty much everything you'd need in an RSS reader. Background syncing and downloading of articles/media works very well. The UI is clean, simple and functional. Options for white-on-black mode, resizing of images, resizing of font size make reading the articles on a phone very pleasant...

    Help LED colors?

    I use Twicca for Twitter, which allows for different colors for the notification LED. I used to have it set for red on my Moto Droid, but it only flashes green on my Incredible. Anyone also use Twicca know what colors I can use?

    Could root lead to better copy-paste?

    One of my annoyances with the Droid is that it can be a pain to copy and paste the exact text I want. First of all, there's no system-wide standard (shift+screen in email, menu option in browser, long-hold in text boxes, UNAVAILABLE in most apps), and second, it's very hard to see the text you...

    Is there an app to show the battery percentage in the status bar?

    Motorola Droid user coming from iPhone here. One of the features I miss is having the battery percentage indicated in the status bar next to the little icon (in fact, I'd rather just have the percentage rather than the icon). Is there an app to show that in the status bar? It seems the precision...

    Moving over from iPhone.

    As someone who hates Apple and their closed/proprietary principles, I held my nose and bought a 3GS in August, planning on buying the then-rumored "Sholes" when it came out. Well, the Droid is now out, and now I'm trying to adjust to the open Android world, and that's why I'm here. Also, hoping...
