Every morning when I get in my car I turn my winamp player and speedview app on. While I am driving I have to switch back and forth between app's to change the song.
What I am wondering is there a way to have a split screen like you can do on your home computer?
Yes before anyone says something I know I should not mess with my phone when driving...I am trying to prevent having to
I am sure someone else would have other needs for an app like this as well. Like surfing the web and texting at the same time...
bump....this has to be of interest to someone....I am willing to donate $50 for this app...

That's one thing I really miss from WebOS, the ability to control music from the notification bar without changing screens. If someone could make this happen on Android it would be awesome.
I forget what it's called, but there is an app that basically gives you an additional home screen that you open/close with the search button without actually leaving the app you are in. You can put a music widget on there and control your music with that.
Edit..... Found it, it's called Quickdesk.

Would it be possible for someone to make a simple widget just to toggle the app wireless tether to start and stop? I know quite a few people who really want a simple way to just toggle it. And I know its just being lazy to not click in but I tether a good twenty times a day and its tedious.

Do a search for "tethering widget". I guess that is what you want.
Close but that turns on my hot spot which I don't use. I use the app wireless tether.

I don't know a lot about Tasker, but you might be able to accomplish this using that app. Give it a shot.
I can't get it to do anything beyond opening the app. Basically I'm trying to get something that will open the app and hit an on screen button. Then preferably go back to the home screen.

Out now in the market, but has major issues right off the bat, notably no sound or notification settings. Sort of ridiculous to launch without those!

I don't see it in the market (searching the web version anyway)

Where is it, Could you supply a market link please?
Yeah it needs some work I think. I set up a new task under tasker to lower the media volume to 1 when I'm in the game and then restore it back to 4 when I exit.
To find it search under words with friends zynga
Notifications do work though.
Here this the market link for anyone that needs it

Opps wrong link! Sorry! Should be the right one know!
I'm sure there will be updates soon. If someone wants to get a game going just add me. Diplomat2387

Mine has sound and notifications... Try turning up your volume while in the main menu.
I get notification bar updates pretty consistently. On CM7 nightlies on my G2.

anyone else having an issue where it isn't seeing all of your contacts? it is bringing them all up except like 4-5, and of course those are the people I want to play against.
I HATE the full screen pop up ads.
I hope they release a pay version soon.
Also...I'm getting a lot of fc's and it lags and delays when its changing turns.
Yes...buggy like crazy. I expected much more from Zynga. Especially since they have great work on the i-devices.

I'm guessing that it only does your e-mail contacts, because the same thing happened to me and it seemed to coincide with people that I've e-mailed instead of people that I have on my phone.

Agreed - need a non-buggy. Ad-free paid version pronto. I still can't believe there are no options for sound.

That's what I thought at first too but it sees some facebook only friends as well as some contacts that only have a phone number...pretty strange. The ones it doesn't see are actually some of my must frequent contacts too

is there a reason it isn't showing up for the wildfire... is there somehwere i can download the apk file
Wordfeud is probably still better. Lets hope they get developing it...
First off, I have to say I love the into video for the site... need to make one for my own.. LOL
I just got the HTC Sensation as a surprise gift from my wife, I was gonna hold out and jailbreak a Iphone 5. I know how to do that.
But here I am with a 14 day return policy from T-mobile, and I want to get this phone in working condition to what I need.
IE I am under the gun to make it work.
This is why I am offering Beer money via PayPal for anyone that can help me fix a few minor issues I have with the phone.
First and foremost is Sound... I am hard of hearing, my wife likes to call it selective hearing because i can tune her out every time she starts to *****...
But honestly the sound levels are just way too low. I bought the app Volume + plus. I can't tell if its working or not....
Second I just need someone to walk me through some general stuff about the phone to personalize it to my liking.
Third is to help me get Yahoo and or any other mail service to PUSH my mail forward, I do a lot of business with my phone, and if I have to wait 5 minutes every time i get an email sucks.
Please email me at Sincityelectric at yahoo dot com and add me to skype if you can help me with this phone.. I'll get back to you in 5 to 10 minutes whenever I can hear the email notification, or when ever the darn phone decides its important enough to send it to me... LOL

Surely personalizing a phone to your specific liking is something best done yourself. From the home screen click the tab on the bottom, furthest to the right to begin personlizing.
As for syncing your Yahoo account, there's no intergrated syncing system with HTC but ofcorse you can download the app and place it on your screen as an app shortcut

About the sound, have you tried going into Menu>Settings>Call and check the box where it says Hearing aids?
There is no push email app. There was several on the market but all were pulled. Use volume+ and equalizer for sound. I don't suggest the hearing aid option. If you want to fully personalize download a different launcher with a theme. I have adw ex launcher. They have good themes. As well as Go Launcher ex they have a lot of themes as well. Sense itself doesn't have much to customize but the lockscreen and the wallpaper.

The Yahoo Mail app is pretty good and is push. Free, download it from the Market.
Sound. Sound on the Sensation sucks completely. Volume+ and these other appstore still suck. There's no fix for a crappy speaker HTC made the phone with.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Thanks all for some solid advice. I did try the hearing aid, and I did pay for the volume +. Didn't seem to make much of a difference...
D/L the Yahoo mail now and see if that helps.
Now is there anything like installous for Android devices?
I was able to root my HTC Sensation, I was hoping I could get inside and adjust the default Volume ect. Playing music is fine, but the speaker phone is just pure crap...
Again, thank you all for the advice and tips.

All root apps will either be loose here or on android market. If I remember correctly that other app is illegal , and discussing that sort of thing on xda is against the rules

Again I thank you guys for the quick response, and Ill start doing more google searches and use the search button here..
Thanks

I can not find the app I want. Is there a way to lock out everything except contacts and phone calls? Or a way one of the ROMS can be made to do this. I only use cell phones, no landline. I do not want kids playing/texting when not allowed.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
I don't think that's possible. I could be wrong though.
There is. Just get them a dumb phone. But there is nothing that will work 100% as a simple reset will remove anything you do. No apps have been made to make a smartphone not use anything. Well I guess you could get an app locker and then set up a password for each and every single app on the phone and that would make it so a password had to be entered every time the app was used. Other then that yeah get them a normal phone and call it good. To be honest that's what I did. Kids have no need for a smartphone and are not mature enough to only use it when they are supposed to. The temptation is to great to show it off to freinds and what not.
That's what I thought. I was just trying to utilize what I have.

Well you could kill the data by messing up the apns or get an app that will kill the apns at the right times. But nothing that will stop the apps from loading. I know how you feel though. Gave my boys my old tilt2 and fuse and after a few calls from school decided it had to go lol
is it possible to entirely disable the dialer on my rooted Inspire. I am looking for a way to remove it or disable it so I can let my kids play games on it without fear of them dialing 911/Emergency.
The phone is deactivated, but makes a nice, though small, wifi tablet. My kids enjoy playing games on it, I just always have a fear of them dialing the Emergency number.
If this should be in my ROM section, please let me know, though i think this is more generalized than that.
Thanks
Dialer shows up in Titanium Backup. AFAIK you need the Pro version to freeze apps. I don't have Pro. You could make a nandroid and uninstall the dialer (or just freeze it if you have Pro).
Oh, Q & A is probably the best place for a question. That's how I understand it anyway.
Disclaimer: This is not advice. It is just something that fell from between my ears.
My son is 18 months old and plays mainly angry birds I just put both tablet and phone on airplane mode. Go to wireless networks should be there or pull down the notification bar n hit the airplane.

drag the dialer off your launcher screens too would work for simple route
Could download an app to set a password for it too.
