I'm not a dev, so I don't know if it's possible. For those of us that changed the LCD Density to 720p screen, the dialer is not the right size, and the calendar is a little off too. I was thinking the other day that since the HD is also 720p resolution, would we be able to take the Contacts.apk from the HD (once it's released) and put it on our SR and have the dialer full screen? Thanks!
Stupid question but how do you change the LCD density on our phones? Is it through a custom ROM and or rooted? Thanks.

I just use the LCD Resolution app that's free from the market. Your phone needs to be rooted to use these apps.
Once Skyrocket HD comes out, you can use HD apks from that phone to our Rocket. I m pretty sure it will work!
I sure hope so!
Another thing we should look at is maybe swapping their LCD into our phone. According to a lot of things floating on the internet it is identical to our phone. They basically just added a better LCD and kicked up the video recorder capabilities. Anyone have an idea like that? I'm running mostly on non confirmed info and opinions, but they claim to be solid sources lol anyone carr to share some insight or info?

Well I just tried using the Note's Contacts.apk file in our SR, but I can't even see the Contacts app in my app drawer anymore. Probably need to decode the APK and edit the dimensions manually.
Guys sorry to burst your bubble. But a rumor from a person who has samsung contacts . Is that there will be no sr hd. Its not going into production

So after the at&t press release over at CES, they're just going to drop it and call it a vaporware? Flawless logic

I call TROLL!
The SGS2 LTE HD was released in Korea within a week of the SGS2 LTE... It was released and for sale long before the "Skyrocket" came into your hands in the US... People were importing it here on this board almost a year ago... (It's just not called "Skyrocket" by anyone but AT&T)
It's not a "new phone", it's just not been released through any NA carriers yet.
Love the "friend who has contacts" rumours... they always seem to be SO reliable.
That said, I'll be passing on it since it's just a display upgrade... I already seem to be always getting another damned phone less than a year apart. I'll stick with my SGS II LTE for at least 2 more iterations... quad core? ...or something else I haven't even heard of yet?

I followed the apktool tut here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466100
I got to the point of getting all the files decoded and comparing the xml files.. lol then I got bored of staring at the numbers and code
I'm actually using the Multi-APK tool and so far so good, i've seen the images to edit (the easiest part) but then i'm looking at where to specifically change the resolution support...
This is because of an issue/feature where certain apps all need the same signed signature. I
am having this issue when modifying the stock Contacts.apk.

The envy is setting in, at least until tomorrow morning.
Picked one up this morning. This is my first Android based phone, so it will take some getting used to. Other than that, the phone's build quality is exceptional.
P.S. - I noticed there is no way to see raw files and folders, I'm assuming there is an app for that.

HTC Official Skins
I'm having trouble logging into HTC Sense so was wondering if any could post the official HTC skins downloadable from HTC (Slate, Black Board, HTC, etc.). FYI, xda search is temporarily unavailable at the moment.
Edit: I just extracted the APK from the stock zip. If there are more than three stock HTC skins, please post. THX.

I know that blows! I posted a thread in the themes and apps section and hopefully someone can port the evo version to our phone. Not sure if it is possible or not.
It's not like the phone isn't capable nor share a common drm library with its HTC counterparts. STUPID

Does anyone else find it BS that our phone (QSD255 ARMv7) was left out even though it has a similar ARMv7 chipset to the Nexus One (QSD250 ARMv7)? I'm calling BS on Netflix's "DRM" comments.
Agreed.

Just received my 7 Plus wifi. So far I like it, although there doesnt seem to be a lot of interest from xda or other forums. Since it was just released today, I suppose I need to be a bit patient. This is the closest forum so I am adding this post here.
I really need a root and adhoc fix so I can use it with my ET4G and sell my ipad!. Also I want to hide the status bar. I may dig into it attempting the 10.1 or 8.9 root, but I have a bit of reading to do on it first.

I ordered it expecting it in about 10 more days or so. Lo and behold I got a shipping notice yesterday.
I have read that it uses the tegra2 processor, but I see no evidence of that. And now I attempt to find it on the web and it is nowhere to be seen.
I will definitely work on getting a system dump tonight after work. I might ask for some help onthis.

If thats not what you wanted let me know.
So now that the 7 plus has had its system dumped, who is gonna help me root this thing this weekend?

Thanks, I like it, but I hope development catches on like the acer iconia a100. I would have liked to opt for the 7.7, but I read its not coming to the states and the pricetag will likely be heftier.
I bought it thinking it had a tegra2 but was elated to find it has the exynos.
I think, if I weren't already awaiting the HD SAMOLED+ awesomeness of the 7.7" tab, I'd probably sell my 8.9 now and get a 7 Plus. I've been saying all along that the Exynos is a beast. Tegra2 is a huge disappointment for me...
P.S. I've seen preorders from Expansys and Mobile City of ~$600 - 700 for the 7.7 import. Have my 3G 7.7 preordered now from Expansys. Oh baby! Can't wait!

do hedgei's take to a ball?
I adopted a 5 month old African Pygmy 3 weeks ago. She lets me pick her up without balling up and I give her a treat, but after that she just wants to get back into her igloo. I bought a large exercise ball for her to go anywhere she wants without getting into trouble, but she just goes in circles inside the ball.
Will she ever get used to the ball and learn how to use it? I am thinking that she wasn't handled very much in her young life, as she just wants to hide. Am I expecting to much too soon?
Thank you. "
I hope the mods wake up early and handle you.
I'm having the same issue. In my case it happens when my girlfriend sends me a screen shot from her GS3 and the same thing happens with my friend when he sends me screen shots from his HOX. We are all on AT&T with their respective branded devices. Not that I think it matters what carrier branded devices the screen shots are coming from.
From my experience with this issue, it seems that it only happens with someone sends me a screen shot. It's very random as well.
Could it be possible that screen shots are saved as an incompatible file type? If they are compatible, could it be a proxy setting?

I think we're on to something here. Perhaps there's a piece of code somewhere that tricks the phone into thinking it needs to resize .png files to a specific size, but has an error that causes it to show up as 20x20 pixels.

Well...
Unfortunately today as i was sending a text message to a friend using the new 4.2 keyboard with flow, a girl came running down the hallway and managed to knock my phone out my hand with her book bag...the end result was not pretty. The phone fell about 5 feet straight face down unto the screen. My otterbox commuter did very little to shelter the phone...and the screen has cracked pretty much everywhere on the right side. The digitizer is completely fine, but the glass is terrible. So...instead of fixing it, or waiting six months for my upgrade eligibility to get a new iPhone 5, (i have an iPad and a MBP, so it would be logical to connect all three, to keep me more organized in school), i called AT&T and they have let me get a new SGSIII for the regular price with an early upgrade...so as Jim did, i seized the opportunity. Just wanted to say thanks to all the great developers we have here, its been a great pleasure, and they've worked their asses off to do some pretty amazing things with this phone. Ill still be around checking stuff out, and if anyone wants anything tested, im willing to use my MB865 AT&T as a guinea pig. My S3 wont be here till Friday or Monday, so after that if any of the developers want anything tested, im willing to run it.
Thanks for everything guys!
