    Apps Creating a Calendar Layout

    Hi guys, I'm looking for a bit of advice here. I'm starting a calendar app and I'm trying to figure out what the best way to create the layout is. I don't want to use the built in CalendarView as it's only in API >11 which limits the potential users too much. I've toyed around with a GridView...

    Muting Alarms

    Inc 'cool story bro' I noticed a design choice with the E4GT that I hated. There doesn't seem to be an option to mute alarms when the phone is on vibrate or silent. I have various daily alarms that act as reminders for stuff. I recently went to the movies and set my phone to vibrate not wanting...

    Help Charging Time

    Anyone else noticing this phone takes forever to charge? A complete <5% - 100% charge takes almost 3 hours. It's crazy. My MoPho charged in less than an hour. I'm starting to wonder if there's a problem with my phone. It's a 1 Amp adaptor, so ideally it would take 1.8 hours to charge the 1800...

    Help Awake Time on Wifi

    I've been doing a lot of searching and tinkering, and I'm having trouble figuring this one out. When I'm not using Wifi, my phone sleeps whenever the screen is off. When I'm connected to Wifi at my home, the phone almost never sleeps. Facebook is set not to sync contacts (under Settings >...

    First Impressions

    Well I traded in my Photon today for the GS2. After playing with it for a few hours, I'm convinced it was completely worth it. I thought I'd share some of my thoughts for others that may be on the fence, or just interested in the phone in general. PROs My biggest concern going was the screen...

    Stock Gingerbread Battery Usage Graph

    I'm trying to decipher some of the information. Mainly, on the actual graph, what's the difference between a green, yellow, or red line? Less important, but still curious about: what do all the different colors on the Phone Signal bar stand for?

    Help Weak Haptic Feedback On Soft Keys

    My gf has had a Captivate for about a year, and I noticed something odd about it. The haptic feedback from the soft keys is remarkably weak, almost nonexistent even. I played with the settings and found the option to adjust the intensity. With it all the way up the feedback from the screen is...

    Help Swiping on Contacts

    My girlfriends Captivate let's her swipe left or right over a contact to quickly text or call them. Is there a similar functionality on other phones, specifically the Photon? I did a little searching, and it seems like it might be a Captivate only option.

    The Nexus S is reaching new heights. Literally.

    Thought some of you might get a kick out of this: NASA is using Android to power satellites.

    Looking For App to Handle Unread Counts

    I've been trying to figure this one out for a couple of days and I'm not having much luck. Hopefully someone here has some suggestions. I'm using LauncherPro which has built in unread notifications for shortcuts on the dock (i.e. it shows a red circle with the number of unread texts on the...
