I really need massive help. Obviously I am brand new to this forum and have absolutely NO idea what the jargon or codes mean in these threads. Overclocking? Rebooting into recovery? SU? Kernal version requirements? I am merely a car guy and will gladly assist in ANY and all car questions. This is what I would like to accomplish. Root the phone to delete the useless programs that are just taking up space. Namely, Amazon MP3, Facebook (don't even have an account), Goggles, Google Search, Latitude,Talk, Twitter, Voice Dialer and finally Voice Search. I figure I don't need many of these since when I do actually use most of those Voice type programs Vlingo is used. Am I wrong to delete so much? A ROM is basically the screen design layout and buttons correct? I am needing set by step (Barney style) instructions on how to accomplish what I would like to do. I currently have a Droid 1 with version 2.2.1; Build FRG83D; Kernel 2.6.32.9-g68eeef5 . If that makes any sense or helps in my quest great, if not please let me know what else is needed. I have Windows XP if that matters as well. So like I said, if you have car issues or just want a little more performance or gas mileage I can help. I'm partial to domestics, Chevy especially, but can definately assist with them all. Thanks in advance all!

Good luck,
Developers at XDA.
I’m sure many of you have heard of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Over the past week I’ve become involved and have determined that there is a need that could most efficiently be met through technology and since I know little of developing I’m looking for some assistance.
Here is the problem:
Protesters are not allowed to communicate with a PA system. This means that when we try to organize we need to scream everything out to each other and pass the message along. As you can image, in the game of telephone things get distorted and misunderstood. We need some way to relay messages to anyone who needs it quickly.
Solution:
I believe that an app would be the best way to facilitate this. While there could be updates online, that’s slow and requires people who want to post something online to go to the blog. It also means that we would have to constantly check. It also means that someone would have to type long messages in through a touch screen. Not efficient.
My Idea is for the app comes from seeing the app Coco voice for the iphone. It’s a service where you can speak into your phone and like a text message it sends that vocal message to said recipient. Now if you took that same kind of recording idea, and instead of sending it directly to a phone number, uploaded it to a main server and people subscribed to that specific “group” (or what have you) would receive a push notification about a new message. Then everyone would be able to get important information about what’s happening, what we’re doing. And especially where to avoid clashes with police. A text element for quick messages would also be great.
What’s in it for you:
1) You’d be helping a movement that hopefully you believe in.
2) The use of this application could go far beyond just this movement. It’s sort of vocal tweeting phone to phone. Subscribe to a group and be informed. People could record a cut of a song and send it directly or just say hello to all your loved ones at once while on vacation. This is a legitimate idea that has widespread application.
3) This will quickly become one of the more downloaded apps. There were 15-20,000 people at the NYC protest last night. The protests are also sprouting up in over 10 different cities across the US. Then there will be people that just want to know what happening. An immediate wide audience to launch the application and gain publicity.
4) You will get mad props
Is there anyone out there who is willing to put in some time in helping to develop an application to help facilitate communication among protesters? This would have to be a free app at least until the protests are over. Preferably it would be both iOs and android compatible. Please let me know so we can talk through some ideas, specifics, timelines, and what not.
Also let me know if you think this is possible or not. Or if you have any other good ideas. Let’s get this moving.
ps - let's try to keep this from getting political. We do not need to argue about the protest here. If you are interested great help out, if not then just move on to the next thread. Thanks in advance.
LoL. Really? What are you end goals? What do you want changed? Who makes the rules?

What about a tweeter like app? But instead of status updates in text they are mp3s or wav files

I think that would work as well. Definitely open to suggestions that might make this easier for developers. Ant interest?

I would love to talk to you about this, but this is not the right place for that discussion. Pm me if you actually have interest, I have real answers. I just know this forum was not made for this purpose so I won't do it here.
It would be very honorable for some Devs to spend a little bit of time on this. I could see this app on headlines. Would be a good way for some Dev to get exposure too.

Apologies if this is in the Wong thread, but I thought it would best suit my question.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of an Android app to record what's on screen (video & audio)?
I would love to be able to record my webcam time with my daughter, since we live 2,000 miles away from eachother, and it's the only way I get to see her (until I get the custody I'm fighting for)
If anyone knows of something, I'd love to try it! Thanks in advance!

Hi I am a total noob and petrified not to insult anyone after having watched your video!!
Anyway I did search for the solution I am looking for and something called Tasker is the closest I could find(which seems rather involved).
I am wondering if there is an App. for Andoid smartphones which enables you to record a series of actions (like open wifi when activatating an App, do certain things in that App. and Email a file etc.), and then create an icon to go with this (macro of recorded actions).
Hope I did not offend you guys too much.
I would greatly appreciate any input.
Thanks
Hello all,
This is one of those questions that's weird to search for because I cannot find the right search terms. In some circles I might say that I am looking for feedback, but that leads to the wrong kind of answers. I want to be able to hear my own voice in my phone (especially through my bluetooth earbuds) while in a voice call. It would be a bonus if I could have this functionality in any other voice app like Skype.
This was common functionality on landline phones, but it is something that most mobiles (and my current rooted i537 Samsung S4 Active) lack. Being able to hear my own voice in my ears while on calls would keep me from yelling while talking, and everyone around me would appreciate that.
Does anyone know of an app or a hidden feature that would allow me to enable this functionality? It would be especially nice if I could modify the volume.
Thank you,
somoose
You are looking for "Delayed Auditory Feedback"
One app I found that allows you to set this during calls is DAF Professional. Its a paid app. They have a free version that allows a trial for 1 hour.
Maybe if you look for apps that support DAF in call you can find more options.

Thank you. This gives me a search phrase and lets me know that the basic functionality exists. Now to find an app can be configured to work only during phone calls and not during any other time. This is a great start - thanks!
Glad I could help! and good luck finding the right app!
