Im actually not sure if its from donut, anyone know?
Im talking about the 4x1 widget included in cyanogen's builds with all of the settings to toggle, can it be taken from his builds and installed with an app installer onto an unrooted mytouch?
i like the look of it and from what i understand it includes a one-click gps toggle...thanks
the widget is called
'power control'
As to the question, i'm not sure about if it can be taken
fair enough, thanks for the response. At least maybe my xda/google search attempts will be more effective using the actual name of it...
It might be from donuts.
If youy DL SDk 1.6 you will find this widget in the emulator.
The Widget is in the Settings.apk.

thanks maxisma. sorry i have to ask this because im sure the answer is obvious to most, but it said 'settings app cannot be installed on this phone..." Is there anything else i need to install to get it to work? As when I installed pdf onto my g1 there were 2 other files i had to install through the emulator, which, since my mytouch is not rooted I dont think would be possible.
Any suggestions would be great, thanks
by the way i used settings.apk from cyanogen 4.0.2, its the last one i downloaded...
I think I remember reading that it was from/for Donut. I never found it in the market though.
1-click GPS toggle, its only just occured to me that someone solved it. Awesome.
I am getting two notifications for any text message that I recieve...
This is what I have tried...Renaming of conversation.apk to conversaTION.BAK
Freezing messaging 2.2.1 in titanium backup, freezing com.motorola.blur.home.message (by accident I deleted this, but I still get txt messages, will this hurt my mms?), and froze com.motorola.blur.conversations.
I still get text messages from both handcent and what I assume is the messages app built into the droid. The icon is a postcard icon with a stamp on the top right corner.
I've tried to delete handcent and see if that was the issue. No go. Reinstalled and still no go they are still there.
I can clear the message but it comes back everytime that I get a text.
I have disabled ALL notifications in both text message and messages app, and I still get it, from the respective apps (messages AND text messages)
This is where it gets hairy, I would say just to click on it and see where the icon takes you...Problem is that when pressing on the icon from pull down it goes nowhere, and I assume that is because I deleted that blur.hom.messages thing. It also says "you have 0 unread messages". IDK though I have searched through everywhere and tried everything but the right thing.
Any suggestions?
I sbf'ed the x this morning with 2.3.340, and the only thing I have done since that is root, installed apps from titanium, and overclocked via jRunny's app, and of course the above.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Are you using any apps that use a custom LED color? I've found that they usually put an icon in the status bar to do that, and they usually lead nowhere. It could also be another app. Just take a look around your app list and see what you can find.
No LED app...It was driving me nuts, so I decided to sbf again to get the message junk back I deleted. When the pc would not recogonize the droid I wiped and factory reset. I had no sms app and none would go through...I wondered after I got stuck on M if it would have worked if I installed handcent after the reboot???
I kept trying to sbf but no avail. Finally tried to flash a rom I downloaded yesterday I think Liberty 1.5...Ha made me stuck on M. Pulled batt and will wait till I get home to complete a sbf on this dang thing and start all over...I'll post on the text issue I was having to fill you in after the sbf..
Thanks,
BG
Thanks tho
for future reference...The problem was noted to Asurion, they shipped out another phone. I have rooted it and all but no custom roms yet...I have no idea what was causing this and neither does assurion.
I have seen this on my phone. Issue is I don't remember exactly how I fixed it. Do you have any of the following apps installed?
Widget locker

It has thus been resolved as I got a replacement phone from Asurion. So unless there is more need for this thread for others. My issue has been solved and this thread can be closed.
Sorry to bump an old thread, but I'm having this same problem, I believe what happening is that both the old froyo messaging icon and the new gingerbread icon are displaying at the same time, I also believe this problem stems from titanium backup after restoring settings after I updated from froyo to gingerbread using an sbf... but I am still unsure, just curious if anyone has a solution?
use root explorer and delete the messaging app you don't want or you can turn off the notifications in the actually app
I too was having this problem when I was on a deodexed pre-rooted version on Gingerbread .605. However, now that I have flashed to Liberty V3 I haven't had that problem at all. I know this isn't much help but I have reinstalled all my previous apps and still don't have the problem.
Hi all...
I'm turning to XDA for help as you guys seem to know everything
I have an unrooted Droid X that I have modified with Desktop visualizer, smooth calendar, a few other apps. At some point during the mods, it stopped ringing when called. Now sound works... and the phone announces the network then vibrates when called, so it says "Verizon Wireless" and then vibrates... but I can't get the ringer to come back.
I've removed everything I added. I have rebooted the phone multiple times... still no ringer.
Any thoughts on what else to try?

in my experience its better to root and rom ur device, instead of using apps. just my opinion. u might havt to do a full sys restore.

While true, if I damage the phone while rooting, I'm screwed and have to buy a new phone. Trying to avoid rooting. Just want the phone back to normal.
Ok, have reloaded to factory. Now will do updates and see what one causes the problem. Will notify here.
I wouldn't actually consider it modding if you installed some apps. But as stated before, it would be a good idea to do a system restore

Do a system restore. On a side note using Z4 root I'd say there is almost a 0% chance on any damage. Believe me when I say this it is nearly impossible to brick a device. Nearly all the threads on here about people complaining about a bricked device are solved easily and the devices aren't really bricked.
Ok, have reloaded everything but Smooth Calendar and I'm still good. I want to load it but am worried it will take me right back where I was... is there another decent app that widgets the calendar in a see-thru mode that anyone is using on their Droid X?

I've never had any problems at all with Smooth Calendar. Maybe your restore fixed your problem.

I use CalWidget. Its minimalistic and simple, has a transparent background if wanted, and you can customize the colors, how it syncs, etc. Simple and fairly versatile.

Thanks all for the advice.
I did reinstall smooth calendar and all seems well. Strange that it acted up before... can't really blame any one app though.
As towards calling it 'modding'... of course you can't, but my phone still looks better than straight factory ones...
And I might root it, I am still a little hesitant though, once I get more time maybe I can look into it and then give it a shot.
Thanks again!

Oh no. Here I am posting again within a few days with another issue.
My previous issue can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459225
I just turned my phone off to attend a few classes and when I turned it on my lockscreen was invisible (so could not unlock phone) and I saw an error on the top bar saying my memory storage was empty. If I reinsert my sd card the error goes away but lockscreen is still invisible. The phone does nothing. I hate to say it but I'm thinking about switching outta this ROM. It's moving fast when it DOES work so would love some help on this.
Thanks in advance.
This happened to me when flashing, i had to flash, reflash reflash reflash until it finally came up, Maybe try rebooting it a bunch of times?
This happened to me as well when I tried MikG 3.0. You might want to try going into recovery and selecting the mounts and storage option and choose mount emmc. If it gives you an error, then your EMMC is borked and you must flash back to a stock incredible based from (such as TeeRom, Ice Cream Sense, or Stock GB) to format phone storage. You'll lose everything on EMMC but it will fix your issue. I also took out my SD card before choosing to format phone storage just to be safe
Looks like something is causing this issue on Mik3.0 and I unfortunately must advise backing up your emmc before using it.

What Mods are the two of you using? Ext4, themes not in the MikG forum? I need to know so I can try to recreate the problem. As I said in another post, this ROM does NOT even touch the emmc partition. Let me know what changes you've made. I can't help you with no information. There's been a hundred downloads and you two are the only ones I see with an emmc issue. Are your phones new, used, eBay? Thanks for the info.
EDIT: Also, what CWM recovery are you using?
Sent from my HTC Droid Incredible
My info:
- Bought brand new 1.5 years ago
- CWM 5.0.2.0
- Hboot 0.92
- Nothing additional was flashed, not even tiny's kernel
- Wiped Data/Factory Reset, boot and system from CWM before flashing
- Restored apps with data from Titanium
- Set up Google and Facebook accounts
- Installed and applied Slate.apk
- Applied the following tweaks:
Font: Roboto
Autobrightness: Lowest
Boot Animation: HTC Stock
Down Animation: ATTEMPTED to switch to HTC Stock, however it was hanging on the download so I hit home to get out of the screen.
Status Bar Transparency: Switched to transparent, switched back
Rosie Drawer Scrolling: Disabled
Quick Settings: Disabled various quicksettings (4G, ADB Wireless, Silent, Vibrate)
Animation speed: Switched from Normal to slow on both transition and window
- Edited build.prop ro.fingerprint to reflect GB instead of Froyo so I don't get the OTA nag
- Set up everything all nice and stuff
I may have missed something, but that's pretty much what I did.

Only thing I see I don't like and don't recommend is TB with data. I have never had ANY luck keeping things stable doing that. Not saying that's it, just pointing it out. Still not seeing anything. Sorry. Just not sure how the ROM can do this. I asked Aamikam, the dev for the EVO version of this for his thoughts. He's not sure how this is even possible since the ROM doesn't touch emmc. Not sure.

There are four reported cases of this issue on these forums so far; the OP of this thread, two more in the rom thread and myself. Still not as widespread as it could be, but it must be a rom issue. I've been restoring apps with APP data (never system data) through titanium in every rom flash and never have any issues, so I do not believe that is it. However I am not ruling it out. I forgot to mention I have an AMOLED screen if that makes any difference.

I also have AMOLED. What I'm not understanding is that I have flashed the exact .zip the reported cases have flashed. I've not seen the issue. Very frustrating, this is my favorite ROM and just wanted to be able to share with others, because this has always been a favorite.

Those having various issues, there is an updated build.prop on the mikmik site. Try it please.

Good ol' software.
I'll try and troubleshoot it tomorrow perhaps. I love this rom as well and if I can get MMS over Wifi working like you say you have then it'll be a daily driver for sure.
What we know:
- Issue happens after a reboot
- EMMC is repartitioned as something completely different/is corrupted, making the volume unreadable.
- Upon boot, apps and whatnot seem to start up but no lock screen is present. The entire device does not respond to touches, including the capacitive buttons and hardware buttons excluding the power button (holding it does nothing though) to turn the screen off and on. Perhaps its having trouble loading Rosie.apk?
Also, I remember I did freeze some HTC stuff I don't use, but I don't recall freezing anything out of the ordinary. When I go back to troubleshoot I'll redo everything step by step, rebooting after each change.

Ok guys. I'be figured out what happened, just have to fix it. There is no emmc on the EVO. I have to trick our phone into seeing it. Talking to Newt to figure this out. Thanks for your patience.

I've been having the same issues mentioned, I took me 3 flashes to get the lockscreen to work and occasionally when I do reboots it won't show up and I'll have to do a battery pull. I also get the sd notifications sometimes, the sd card still works but the notification stays there. Another problem I've been having is that annoying system update from verizon, it keeps popping up and I don't know how to get rid of it. Any ideas?

Build prop update at the mikmik will help with the update nag. Also, I finally got the SD/emmc , and lockscreen issue, all at the same time after doing a font. For two weeks I had no issues, until I decided to change fonts in tweaks. Anyone having these issues after changing fonts? Just trying to troubleshoot some more.

I switched to Roboto font during my run, but I did a bunch of other tweaks previously mentioned before rebooting so I couldn't single it out for sure. Sure does seem like the culprit now though!

Download the file to your SD card. Make a backup of your current build.prop. Call it build.prop.old. Copy the downloaded build.prop and paste to /system directory. Then change permissions to rw-r--r-- . Do all of this before a reboot. To change permissions, make sure system is r/w enabled, then long press file and select permissions.

I just got my first Note series phone. I was wondering if there is anything I should straight delete after turning on the phone for the first time.
Someone said delete the Tmobile app cause it can show you're rooted? I held down and moved it to Remove spot., but does that delete it from the phone?
If anyone knows of any others that would be much appreciated.

No, system apps can't be deleted unless you are rooted. They can be disabled tho, which will remove the icon from the App drawer.
What you did, was just remove the icon from the desktop.
Ahh. Ok, thanks for the response.
I think even though I disabled some of the apps. Some still show up in App drawer. Like Music. I disabled that cause I have 3 freakin different music players. Like why the hell do they do that?
Anyways it's still showing up on my App drawer.
Rooting is really tempting me. Even though this is my first Note and have no experience doing it.

You should try using a different Launcher. Such as Nova or Apex. They have the option of 'Hiding' the icon that you don't want shown in the app drawer. Maybe you should start with that since you are new rooting.
Oh i thought you needed to root to change the launcher. Thanks for that info.

You can completely change the look of your phone without rooting, but you won't be able to do a lot of the things people like to do.

I really enjoyed Buzz Launcher for a long time, but I'm using Smart Launcher now with Cover Lockscreen on top of it. Can't wait to get my Note 4 and make the big from my Note 2.
