I been wondering for a few months now about a circular icon on the bottom right means? I could change it to 2, 10, or off.
That is the auto timer.
It will take a picture in the selected time.
If you set it to 10 and press the camera button it will count down and take a picture in 10 seconds. Its cool to use in low light situations as you can set it down on a table or something and avoid any "camera shake"

Haha I can't find it. I bought the phone months ago.
I have tried using many different pictures as a wallpaper image on my today screen but they always looked "washed out" unless I use the one in the theme. Does anyone have any ideas on how to use a pic of my own. Thanks...TJ
i had the same problem before... so im interested in solving it

I know this one!
go into pictures and videos and pick the photo you want, go to menu and select "set as today background" when that opens you are given the choice of how faint you want the photo to look. the lower the % the stronger the colours, then click "ok" and its done.
all the best

Thanks for the reply but I'm not getting the option to pick the % of the pic. I'm using a HTC Advantage x7501 if that makes any difference...TJ

Are you definitely using pictures and videos? start/programs/pictures and videos select your photo, either press and hold the thumb nail or open it and, menu blah blah! its been the same on all the PDA's ive ever used right back to wm 2002. It says transparency level: xx% with an up/down arrow
Jay
Ahh OK now its working..I was selecting it from the today menu instead of using a explorer or paint program. Thanks so much, now I can use any pic I want...TJ
I did get a HD2 today while I've been using HTC Hero (android) for about 4 months.
Now CAN I get some sort of sms-popup or preview in the lockscreen when I get a sms? I hate the way to go to the sms now, I want to see it directly when I get it aswell as I want the screen to turn on!
If this can't be possible on this phone, then well will hand this biggy thing back to the store!

It took me all of 3 seconds to find it, read Samuels instructions carefully.
Check the 2 attached screen shots.
You need to go to Settings tab and then click Menu > All Settings

Thx so much haha! I didnt scroll down to Message.
ok i see what the man wants and i did what the others said. heres the problem. it flashes up the msg preview for all of 5 seconds while its awake but if on standby i only get a blink of it b4 the lockscreen takes over... the lockscreen is mahoosive with 1 lil slider so wheres the option for the preview to be part of the lockscreen ie. preview to stay on there unill unlocked.. is this possible cus altho this thread taugt me something new its pointless if the preview blinks in my pocket and when i come to have a quick check of my screen its just the tap/slide new msg slider again as before... hmmmmm helpage!
I think what he's after is something similar to the S2U2 option to view unread SMS/MMS/Email etc while the screen is locked... Personally I don't think its possible with the native lockscreen, but I'd love to be proven wrong...

sort of, right my last phone was a c902 and if the keypad was locked and u got a txt it would pop up a window stating who its from and the 1st line of the txt and if u didnt notice you had a txt but took it out of your pocket say 10 mins later and just clicked a button to wake it up but not unlock the keys the window, ya know just quickly checkin it see if your popular lol, that window would still be there... then ya can either unlock and read or put strait back in ur pocket to read later... its soooooo simple it should be standard. the preview thing on here is only really useful for when im browsing like now iv just had a txt and i know who its from lol but on the lockscreen if you test it out it littery just flashes.grr lol

Just as stated before: Take a look at S2U2 2.41. It does exactly what you want.
oh yea baby that works a treat! much better and bigup respects man lol all is goo now
question from first post was solved, but i dont want to create another topic, because my case is connected.
anybody knows if there is any possibility to get sth like it was in wm5 during receiving sms ?
ok, now i can have a popup, great, but only with one key - LHK (Hide) ...
on wm5 i had RHK with options like: save as read, delete, reply
and im missing that option very much ... cause when i get delivery report im unable to delete it at once ... i must go to htc messages, open it and delete ...

Maybe a bug
My only problem with 4.2.2 is when I do a screen capture from the small apps draw, i can't find screen captured picture any where?
You here the camera click sound while taking picture, you then press the save icon (floppy disk icon?) is vanishes?
Any one else with this?
Are u from india?..is it released?

I can pretty sure all mention issue never happen to me, Working perfectly fine here.
why did they remove the screencapture from the power-menu anyway?
But I also have this problem, i can share the image, but cannot save it
Photo Gallery is bugged.
Between photo slides it stutters or doesnt even slide at all for a second or two. I hope they fix it next time.

The LAST screenshot by the small app is stored at /sdcard/com.sonyericsson.notes/clip_small_app/. Inside it there is a Screenshots.png. However it will be overwritten if you take a new screenshot by the small app. (Screenshots.png? Maybe multiple pictures stored in it. But just we can't view it)
So the solution is - DO NOT use the small app to take a screenshot if you want the original file. Use POWER+VOL DOWN key combination instead. It works fine just like before.
clip manager
The pix taken with the clip manager is located inside notes app
There should be a folder with the same icon

Cheers for that kennethso168.
It looks like the new 4.2.2 ROM and the album app doesn't see .png files? At least i know where the screen capture is going now.
Will have to remember key combination until its fixed.

Yes you need to use a file manager (like ES file manager) to view that png.
And the key combinations are not really hard to remember, as there're only 3 two-key combinations:
Power+ vol up for a while: reset your device when it hangs
Power+ vol down: screenshot
Vol up+ vol down: that's not sensible

The album app does see .png files. Mine sees the screenshots I've taken with the Pwr&Vol- button combo. I think the small app just saves the screenshot in a folder that also contains a .nomedia file, so the album app doesn't find it.
Any one have issues with listening to music and using Walkman and in lock mode? When I press the unlock button, I can see the album and also slide up/down flickering like mad.
Using the Hong Kong version and can't seem to shake it.
Also on another note, anyone know how to add additional apps to the lock screen? Only can see basic apps to choose from.
I don't think the thread needed to be made seeming your "bugs" have not been identified others, not to mention the majority of bugs and improvements in their new ROM seem to be in peoples heads.

There should be a folder with the same icon call clip manager
And at there the pic is not overwritten
I think the place to find the png file is just a temp folder
I have yet to search out where it keep the notes screen shots
I'm not talking about taking a screen shot but taking a photo and then be able to write notes on it?
I still haven't been able to figure this out?
With the pen out use Screen Write from Air Command menu while on a picture?

There is a SIGNATURE feature, but it's not really like taking notes on the image. It's kind of cumbersome.

Screen Write takes a screen shot, so you can't zoom in and write. And it's not the original resolution of the image.

Ive added some pictures, dont know if its what you mean. I have the language set on Dutch so...
But the icons and locations should be the same.
For the lower buttons you might need to scroll some, i had to.
edit -=- ive just checked its the same as signature. I dont know anything else.

That's very interesting! My Gallery app looks slightly different than yours. However, I did find the EDIT button! On my version (US Tmobile Note 3), I have to touch MENU and then the EDIT button is there.
I didn't know that we could scroll the bottom row of buttons, but now I do!
Thanks!!

Yeah funny that they're slightly difrent. Mine is an unbranded SM-N9005 from the Netherlands (NL).
Press the spen button and hold it, then hold the spen on your screen.
This will take a screenshot and open the editing mode.

not what she was looking for.
i want to write and draw with the s pen directly on the front of pictures too. would be very usefull when i´m at work
you can write on the backside of pictures(photo notice). that attaches a note to the picture but thats not what i want to do.
would be perfect if you could do it from the camera application or gallery right after you shot the pic.
i find it annoying to load it in another app first, then edit and save it again
isnt there a (camera)app or any simple way to do it ?
i saw you were right !
taking a screenshot of an image currently displayed on the screen and then writing to it works.
the downside is that the resolution gets changed but i can live with that atm.
thank you :good:

Actually, it's not too bad. I've been looking for the same thing.
I just take a picture, then open it and then go into the edit mode.
It's not too bad, I just wish the gallery app had good palm rejection like the Sketchbook Pro app which I use for drawing a lot.

insert typed text
any way we can insert "typed" text, not handwritten?
have a look at PicsArt.
might be a bit overkill.
you can really do a lot right after shooting.
typed text of any kind too.
