I thought i was getting smarter...i was downloading and installing stuff with no problems until this clock program. Can some one tell me how to make it work please. I am running cht's newest version but can't get the clocks to show up...it shows that they are installed...but can't find where they are and how to make them work. Help please...thank you
It would probably help to know what clock app you are trying to use.
It should be in the advanced settings in CHT...there's a drop-down list there to choose whatever compatible clock you have installed.
Thank you I will look in the advanced setting and see if that helps.
I have cookies 1.8.5 and there is no advanced drop menu I can find. I'm trying to use the clock called "the bull C3". From forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670136

Ok well I'm running an older version of CHT (1.7) so I don't know if it's in the same place, but I access it by hitting the "menu" soft button on the home screen, then choosing "edit home layout". Once it enters the editing mode there, you should find the "advanced" button in the bottom right.
Ok...I found the advanced menu right where you said it was..but the clocks I installed don't show up in the options...do I have to install the cab file in a special place to get it to show up in the advanced menu?

Hmm...it was my understanding that whichever clock you have installed (I think you can only have one "actively installed" at a time) would show when you picked the appropriate option in the list...like "analog 1" or "analog 2"
Try picking each of the options that do show in the clock list, and see if any of them are the one you think is installed
Nope that didn't work...it's not there...I must be doing something wrong but I can't figure out what. I really appreciate all your help. I must be retarded or something.

lol I'm glad it works for you now, I know how frustrating that kind of thing can be. Had you done a soft-reset after you first installed the clocks? Sometimes changes in WM just need to be kick-started with a 2nd reboot.
Yeah I tried to re-boot it several times after installing it...then I uninstalled it and went on here asking for help...then I installed again and re-booted several times during our discussion....then on one re-boot the standard analog clock disappeared...so one more re-boot and magically the one I installed showed up. Now I'm just praying it doesn't have a virus or something. You don't happen to know of a anti-virus for the hd2 do you? Thanks again for all your help.

Nope...I know that there are some AV apps out there for winmo, but I've never felt compelled to test or use any. I'd have a hard time believing that your issue was casued by anything like that though. I'd suspect it's more likely related to the fact you installed all the clock cabs at once, but that's just a guess.

In Marketplace look up 'Lookout'. Its free and works great. But if you are on the stock ROM still dont use it. I had some issues when I was on my original ROM and it froze it to the point I had to hard reset. But it includes antivirus, Malware scan, firewall, etc. Plus it has a nice feature where if its stolen you can remotely (from any PC) 'NUKE' your phones contents. You can also pinpoint its location and go get it. GL!

After installing the clocks cab. then go into edit mode press the old clock till the remove tab appears, then hold the empty sapce till add new tab.appears and select analog 1 from dropdown menu, soft reset and new clock should show. In fact you can get 2 different clocks to display-- one for day and one for night.
how do you get one clock for day and another for night?

Most of the clocks for the 1.8.5 it says you have to uncheck sense install/restart your phone/then click sense back on...yeah pretty complicated other wise it will not show up...usually a reboot will take care of it...As far as two different clocks..I am pretty sure that is not possible...only one at a time...
Hello,
I'm receiving an app update through WP7 Marketplace to get an update for Samsung Diagnosis.
However, when I go to get the update from the Marketplace, it gives me the following message:
"Can't get this info right now. Check back in a little while."
Anyone know why this is happening? Has anyone gotten this error yet?

Yep, same here. I also have a constant pending update for some Reversi program that's not actually on my phone because there's two in the marketplace with the same name. My guess in both instances is that Microsoft is still trying to get it right at their end since there's nothing I can do about either at my end. I'm not resetting my phone over this so I just ignore them.

I like it a lot and, after the usually painful transition, I haven't missed the iPhone 4 at all. I think this marketplace thing is probably the worse issue I've seen, which isn't bad, and it hasn't restarted by itself or anything since I bought it. In fact, I even have a Sandisk class 2 8GB card in it and it's worked without a hitch since taking it out of the box. I have about a week to return it but so far I've had no reason to do so.

Same here. My experiences have been the same as yours. But instead of going from iPhone 4, I went from iPhone 3GS. The only downside is there aren't must options when it comes to cases and such, but that's to be expected for a platform that hasn't taken off yet. The only problem I am having so far is getting used to the keyboard. Since it's weirder then the iPhone 4, I'm used to pressing the letters closer together and on the WP7, I tend to make more mistakes, but that's something I'll get used to.
uninstall the app
Uninstall the app then go back into diagnosis and it goes away

LOL...guess that explains why it doesn't download. That's...let's see....8 times the monthly cap imposed by Comcast reidential. Good job, Microsoft!
Oh...I forgot to mention, that's one of three updates stuck in the marketplace for me now. It was Diagnosis and a Reversi app and now there's another Reversi app. This one actually downloaded and installed, then it never showed up in the list of installed apps and it shows up in the marketplace list every other time I start the app. "I assume Microsoft knows...." is starting to sound like a bad assumption. Guess I should call their teacher and ask that she keep them after class for their own good.

I was having the same issue until I realized I could slide my finger over the keyboard and release when the key I wanted was highlighted.
Did you know you can also hold your finger down for a moment, and you get a cursor, which you can then slide around to insert whereever you want, like the middle of a word. Makes editing easier.

I have been looking for that since 11/18. Knew it had to be there, but don't remember seeing it in the instructions...
.......aw, who am I kidding? I didn't read the instructions.
Awesome tip Man, Thanks!!!
I had used the ##634# to get into the Diagnosis menu. It now shows up as an App in my start menu. If I "Uninstall" it, will I lose access to it in the future? Will uninstalling it delete the application itself, or just the Start Menu Shortcut?
Is there another way to remove this shortcut without uninstalling?
Just removes shortcut

Uninstall just removes the icon, typing the code on the dial pad again brings the app/icon back.
Just tested on my own focus to confirm.
Hey everyone. Have an unrooted Evo. Just installed the most recent OTA. A few days before that my wifi started turning on by itself. After doing some snooping around in my phone I found an app called securephone running. It looks like spyware, I'm not sure how it got there, or what app I downloaded that added it, but keep an eye out, and if anyone has any info I'd appreciate it.
Looks like it logs and uploads your call history. Got a nosey girlfriend?

I was thinking that but it has no user interface, instructions or settings. After uninstalling I even went and reinstalled it myself from the market to see, but nothing.
Yeah I don't know then, maybe there is some hidden way to get into its menus, it certainly wouldn't be the first app like that. It does have the most extensive permissions list that I have ever seen so methinks it can't be good. Just get it back off your phone and keep a close watch on whoever has access to your EVO.
I found one listing that says "This application seems to be removed from the Android Market". ?

Do you have an Exchange account installed? Could be your Admin forced the installation remotely.
Otherwise, yeah, it's your significant other.
Ok, so this was announced earlier today and I saw it and thought "meh". I had a browse about and still thought "meh", but then I discovered the fact that I can install apps on my phone directly from the browser.
When I first tried it, it didn't work, but every other app after that was installing on my phone within seconds of my clicking the install button. So basically, I can install apps on my phone from any internet ready computer.
Thanks Google. You just made something sweet a little sweeter!
Enjoy, my friends

make sure you setup your gmail account on the phone and access the market then exit, then it will work. I had the same issue until I did that, cause the FAQ says that will happen if you havent visited market recently.
Now this is cool, utterly great find, no more market on the phone.
BTW, you dont have to access market with https, you can access the same page without the cert error using http.

Check under My market account and then go to the tab "settings" see if your phone appears there, make model carrier. cause both my HD2's show up, there. also on that same screen on the top right there is a link "dont see your device" might be of help to your situation.

I can't get apps to download to my device. When in my PC browser, I am logged into market, can see my device in the pull down menu and it says it will be installed onto my device shortly, but nothing happens. I tried rebooting, logging out of Talk and back in, downloading the app directly from the market android app (which works, but doesn't solve the app delivery via browser), and also trying downloading from my android browser. No luck. Anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: Nevermind. Flashed pongster's latest Ginger Rom and all is good.
So after running rooted Gingerbread for a while now I've noticed a few bugs and was wondering if I was the only one.
First thing is Swype. Yeah yeah, I know everyone has that one. But after uninstalling the old apk with Root Explorer and then installing the beta everything initially worked fine. But my first reboot after the install of the beta Swype force closes every time it trys to open. Uninstall and reinstall doesn't fix the problem. Weird, but not a huge deal to me as I didn't use it that much anyway.
Second, and the most annoying thing I noticed, is the back lit buttons stop lighting up after a certain period of time. The soft buttons under the screen and the slide out keyboard still work, they just don't light up. Rebooting fixes the problem.
Third is the built in battery manager seems to have some issues as well. Although it seems to inherently do a better job of saving battery life than in previous versions of Android. On my phone it sometimes won't come out of it's no-syncing state and allow data usage. Other times it will allow data usage after waking back up, but data seems extremely slow. Again a reboot fixes the issue.
And the last thing I noticed today. Although I haven't had any noticeable signal issues or dropped calls, I was getting drastically different signal readings sitting right beside a guy with a DROIDX at work. As in he was showing full 3G service and I was only showing one bar of 1X and like a -100 RSSI. I realize it's two different phones, but my understanding was that the X and the original 2 were pretty similar.
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed any of these things or if I'm the only one with some bugs? Or if anyone has any ideas about a solution for any of the issues?
FYI I'm far from an expert, but I'm not a complete Noob either. Although I don't have a ton of posts I've been hacking my cell phone since the days of my Razr and have had and rooted three Android phones to this point.
Anyway, thanks a bunch guys!

Only problem that I have is that using Launcherpro when the home screen is rotated 90 degrees (widescreen-ish) and then rotated back the wallpaper gets a "letterbox" effect similar to what you see on TV's. Haven't looked into it too much, probably just an issue with Launcherpro.

I noticed the same thing. And actually LauncherPro in general wasn't working too great for me after the GB install. I actually kind of like the stock launcher in GB so I ended up deleting LauncherPro anyway.

Yeah sorry I should have gone into more detail. Yes I did delete all entries I saw that referenced Swype, including the ones listed on the link.
To be even more specific when I try to do anything with Swype it says "The applitcation Swype (process com.swype.android.inputmethod) has stopped unexpectedly."
I'm having a weird bug where three shortcuts to games I put on my start screens keep disappearing: Bejeweled, Optime's Hangman and Tic Tac Toe. I put them back and they stay for a while, but eventually, just disappear. I even rebooted after putting them back and this did nothing. It's quite strange.

The backlight issue bugs me to no end. I try to figure out how to restore it without rebooting but no success so far.
One other issue is that I can't access the multitouch keyboard. I disabled it because I really never used it, but then I felt like using it one day and there is no place to check to use it. I have SwiftKey installed as my only 3rd party keyboard
I'm having an issue with ridiculously low volume on phone calls......any fixes out there because it's hard to use your phone, as a, you know, phone, when you can't hear the other person on the line. I may have to SBF back and wait for the official 2.3 if it doesnt improve.
Rebooting takes care of the call volume problem.
Rooted Droid 2 running Froyo 2.2 with the 2.3.20 update
Yeah I had the low call volume too, I think everyone did. It went away after the first reboot.
As fas as the games disappearing. Someone mentioned Bejeweled, that's one of the ones on mine that keeps disappearing. There are a few that do it, I don't remember exactly which ones, but Bejeweled and Stupid Zombies are two that I remember always disappear.

my games are on the 2nd page to the left and for me its stupid zombies, angry birds, angry birds seasons, and angry birds rio that keep disappearing, the other 4 game shortcuts i have don't disappear. I also tried reversing where they sit and the same 4 shortcuts disappeared, even sitting in different locations.
Hmmm, who knows. Even though all of mine weren't disappearing, just certain ones, it got annoying to me. I just deleted the shortcuts from my screen and pull up the games from the launcher now.
It is strange that its only certain games, and that we all seem to have the same ones disappearing.
