I have been frustrated over not being able to use ADW with Gingerbread due to lagging and other glitches. Todays release of ADWLauncher EX version 1.30 seems to have resolved the problems. It is running as smooth as silk, fast, and no lag. It's nice having my scrolling widgets and cool...
I have been spending the last couple of days installing (and uninstalling) and tweaking just about every every replacement launcher know to the Android community (especially my favorite ADW-EX. I have come to the conclusion (as much as I hate to admit it) GB seems to run the smoothest using it's...
I have been a loyal Swype user since the early betas and never thought I would switch. Lately I have been increasingly frustrated over lack of flexibility in editing the dictionaries. While cruising this forum I noticed a mention of "Ultra Keyboard." This baby completely passed under my radar...
Just found a little program in the market (costs $.99) that actually seems to speed up my SD reads and writes on my Droid X by changing the cache size (can be set on the fly or at boot). I can really see a difference when loading music, photos and video files. The program does require root. So...
Just a quick observation. I thought my proficiency in ROMing the Original Droid 1 multiple times a day would make Droid X a piece of cake. This is an entire new animal (with new fun challenges) but set aside your preconceived notions, get the popcorn, and prepare for a wild ride. Take you time...
I love it, I hate it (miss my Droid 1). Will getting used to stannge button placement (or maybe the Droid 1 was strange). It has kept me busy all day long. So far the jury is out... :cool:
Loved my plain Driod but been in need the newest and biggest. Talked Verizon to ship a new X (no rebate) for $150 and I keep the original (those wall throws took a toll an the little monsters) real-estate on 3d Homebattle 3d ahould be awesome. I look forward to being a more active and helpfull...
Just a heads up - CyanogenMod For Droid V5.0.8 (06/19/2010) is available in ROM Manager and the support site:
CyanogenMod For Droid V5.0.8 (06/19/2010) - CyanogenMod Forum
I am installing it now (it's been a slow Saturday).
Here is the changelog:
CHANGELOG at eclair from cyanogen's...
Just a heads up - ADW Launcher (in my opinion the best launcher available) is now in the Market (free!). Many bug fixes over the release candidates. Use it, love it, if you haven't tried it, GET IT!
Just downloaded the latest version of Titanium off the market and it now offers scheduled backups (not sure if this is only for the paid version). There are also a handful of other new features that I haven't checked out yet. I am pretty excited about this and just wanted to give my rooted...
Was just in a thread and Fadelight's response was dead on. There are too many "Help!" "Please help" "What do I do" titled threads that give no clue about the thread content. If you want people to take notice let them know what the thread is about. Yea, eventually I will check out a thread...
Just found CyanogenMod 5.0.6.2 in ROM Manager (I have not yet been able to find a direct link but I am sure there will be one soon).
This is from the changelog....
---- 5.0.6.2-Droid
* Add fstab to /system/etc
* Remove Google Apps which accidentally ended up in the build.
BTW - ROM...
Just a heads up to anyone that doesn't have a Micro SD Adapter to directly connect to your PC (really useful). There will come a time when you want to connect your SD card directly to your PC when regular mounting fails (happened to me a couple of times). I could have sworn all my readers...
Just a heads up. I love Titanium Backup and it has saved my ass many times. Had a mini crisis (trying to fit square pegs into round holes) and needed to do a Titanium restore of my apps and app data (don't care about the apps but entering the data again is a pain in the ass). I was impressed how...
Reading a recent thread reminded me of this small tip. When flashing a new ROM or kernel, make sure SetCPU is set back at 600Mhz first or turned off all together until your new setup is up and running. This will help reduce some of the boot loops and other problems encountered. It has reduced...
I must have read 5 threads today of people falling over themselves unrooting waiting for 2.1. All these threads are people in a total panic as they still use the 1 button wonders (DM Updater and ROM Manger) to try and accomplish this task. Boot loops and stuck screens and who know what plagues...
I just downloaded the latest version of ROM Manager and to my surprise there is a menu option to flash the latest version of SPRecovery. You cannot use ROM Manger to backup and restore stuff from the program using SBRecovery but it is still a nice convenience to have a menu driven interface to...
Ouch - it should have said "Now Downloadable" (gotta stop posting at 4am :cool:)
Just cranked up ROM Manager and found Bugless Beast V0.9 (and the latest Ultimate Droid) available in the download section. This should be an incentive to those reluctant to try other ROMs due to the 2 different...
I have a strange problem. I have been running Cyanogen 5.0.5 since yesterday. I always jump back and forth between DM Updater and Clockwork depending on what recovery I need to flash a particular rom, update or kernel. Today I cranked up DM Updater expecting it to ask if I want to update...
Been reading about this for the Nexus and it looks like some are having luck using it on the Droid. Going to play with it later...
Launcher 2 mod - 5 column appdrawer! - xda-developers
If you are like me and have been using Quick Profiles (free in the market) to easily change system settings do yourself a favor and check out Quick Profile Pro (about $1.10). I has a very convenient widget to change profiles and now gives you a choice of 115 icons to assign to each profile (I...
Been playing with Chevy's 2.02 ESE53 2.1 based rom and I am quite impressed. There was about an hour of false starts when he originally posted but it turned out that his server was not properly updating his newer file (drove poor Chevy up a wall). It is running fast right out of the box (141ms)...
I just installed the new version of AdFree from the market and they finally got rid of the annoying bug that made it a pain to update (for those that don't know it blocks most ads in rooted android phones). Just a heads up to my fellow adventurers in Rootland...
I was looking for a Windows based tool that can make a complete backup image of my SD card (just didn't want to lose 13gb worth of photos and music). I tried the native Windows backup program, Ghost, and just about every other backup solution with no luck. I did run into a free program called...
