possible thread for requested ideas/apps? - General Questions and Answers

Can we start a thread where all requests can be made and updated as development has been done, for example list ideas and concept apps from other devices that haven't been ported or implemented.One request I had was a program for the iphone/ipod touch called "Buzz Buddy" which I already requested in the development forum but this idea would be for a master thread for all requested original/concept ideas where we can check the news on whats been added,updated and been created.

o while we are at it,
do you know which activity i should look for if i want a one-touch on/off for GPS? i just couldn't figure it out myself from that huge list, thanks

Just leave GPS on, it uses no juice when it is not active.

Post What Where:
General - general technical discussion items, news, anything else that does not fit into the other fora categories.
Q&A (Questions and Answers) - all questions, irrespective of type, get posted in here whether they be theme related, accessory related, technical, etc.
Accessories - any items to do with components and/or accessories relating to your device.
Rom Development - only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY. Nothing else goes in here.
Themes & Apps - anything to do directly with the development of themes and/or applications. Nothing else goes in here.
MOD EDIT: BEFORE POSTING ANY THREAD IN THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.
Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

Sorry thats not my query ..

Why don't you just uninstall it and install it again. That's gonna solve your problem for sure

go to data/data then launcherpro and delete all file you find in folder
but don't delete folder just file and restart launcher you got it by default

or like simacid said uninstall re-install and ta-dam

[Q] Q: how do i organize apps

how would I organize my apps within my launcher? some of the apps that pull up when i call up my app launcher are almost never used, or are attached to widgets that don't do anything, or i'd like to put them in a "folder" within that screen to group all my games together? is there another app that can do this?
I've seen some apps that let you move2SD and do different things, but that's not what i'm looking for. i'm using the standard 2.1 launcher btw and i wanna stick with it.

ADW lets you create new app menus. Just create a new one and fill it with your apps and none of the junk.

You'd be better with a Launcher like ADW or LauncherPro.

The Default SE Launcher *does not* have any such options.
ADW supports "Categories" between which you can easily switch. LauncherPro has a feature to hide unused apps.
For folders that contain all "Games" etc, try Apps Organizer (or, far superior but paid, Folder Organizer).
I've been using Folder Organizer for a long time now and it's definitely worth the money. Using Folder Organizer you will have a ****load of ways to organise your apps (contacts and bookmarks, too). More often than not I use my one "main category" from Folder Organizer over the ADW AppDrawer. If you use a lot of apps, look into Apps/Folder Organizer

Open your eyes then, as I've just counted 4 on the first page. Anything with Theme or [THM] in the title is more than likely, the latter definitely, is a theme.

[Q] Help with Dualboot

I've looked at a few guides and can't seem to do it myself, so I was wondering if someone might be able to help me dualboot 2.2.1 and 2.1 on my Xperia. I've gotten 2.2.1 to run on my phone and 2.1 alone, but when I follow the guides to dualboot they don't seems to work for me. Right now I'm running 2.1 firmware 2.0.2.A.0.24 with the Eminence rom.
Any help is much appreciated.

Hi, Try searching the forum using the search function.
Dual boot is not used on 2.2 or custom 2.1, you now need to get the xrecovery menu on your phone and switch between firmwares using that.
="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571"]
That will tell you all you need to know

I've seen forums on dualbooting before, not just using xrecovery. Pretty much you regularly boot into 2.2 and then if you want press any button at the start up screen and it'll go to 2.1, but it doesn't need to go to in xrecovery menu. I've also seen a how to on it, I can't find the link right now, but it was called "how to dualboot for noobs", pretty much.
zdzihu has a video of it on youtube actually(I'm pretty sure it's him at least):
www . youtube . com/watch?v=eEZQjKLOhUk
p.s. you're link is broken
