    Google on screen unlock

    I played around with a few ROMs in the past few days. I wound up sticking with Resurrection Remix for the i-777. All in all I'd say it's very good and quick, probably the best I've used yet. I have one question: When I unlock my screen it wants to go to that Google thing where it shows you...

    Upgrading my ROM

    I'm one of these people who do upgrades and don't mess with my phone until it's time to unroot or upgrade my ROM. So here's the dilemma: I have CWM and Siyah for my AT&T Galaxy S2. I don't know if I want to upgrade to a new ROM or wait on Jellybean. Three more months and I may have the S3...

    One note on the blank screen on root fail

    There is a bit more to my dilemma than this but I'm going to throw something out that I haven't seen anyone cover yet. When you try to upgrade your kernel and get the dreaded black screen after the splash screen, it doesn't mean your phone is off. It just means you don't have video. I had...

    Another root thing with a twist

    I rooted my Captivate a while back without a problem. I rooted my S 2 a few months ago without a problem that has/had Gingerbread on it. I read through the forums after upgrading to ICS and the information on rooting is scattered all over the place. XDA is a whole mess in itself if you aren't...

    Media Scan picking up all images

    I'm wondering about the folders that are scanned for new images. I've got 2 or 3 folders where I store images, everything else contains images for apps. I don't want the apps scanned, don't need 2 download folders and all that. Is there a way to have only the folders showing up that I want? :eek:

    Something else on saving battery power

    After seeing apps start up by themselves or stay open and having to manually kill them I have come to a conclusion. I didn't use ATK or any other app I have or had to kill the apps. But after the past two days of using my phone regularly and not worrying about apps staying open, I'm not sure...

    Webroot Antivirus

    Moderators: Please don't move this to a 6 month old, dead, generic antivirus thread. I can't post in app reviews or I'd have put it there. I was looking on the web today for new, interesting apps. I ran across the Webroot Antivirus. I've been skeptical of these since they almost always...

    Root Reinstall ATT Apps

    I accidentally uninstalled my music player. Where can I get the installable for this and/or other system apps?

    Last.FM questions

    How many of you use this? I installed it on my PC and phone. I know it's a community and you can use playlists and the like. I'm not sure if when I search and add to my library if it's adding everything on an album. I like that it shows the Bio of the bands as they play. I can't figure...

    Help Setting Change

    I'm not sure if I missed something or if an app changed a setting for me. When I plug in to charge from AC, there doesn't appear to be a display timeout. I thought it was Tasker and that I may have set something with it. But I disabled Tasker completely and checked my profiles and tasks. I'm...

    Hi, and Stuph

    I didn't like the other Android forum so here I am. I've got the Captivate. I had the iPhone 3GS and 4 along with the BB Torch. Although I swear by the Torch the Captivate suits me a lot better.
