I'm experiencing a problem with the dialer app since the Kit Kat update. When I first open the app and touch the number pad icon (center button at bottom of the app) I get a blank white space. Only on a second attempt does it work properly. The issue is repeatable - if I go to recent apps and...

I just found this and tried a couple simple ones so far and it works flawlessly. For those that use Tasker, you can download a plugin called Tasker App Factory (free). It allows you to export a Tasker profile as an App you can then install and run separately. For example, I wanted to be...

Is there any way to have it launch a different camera app?

I'm disappointed in the number of volume sliders (only 3) available on the MotoX. For example, there doesn't appear to be a way to set a different volume level for notifications vs ring tones on this device (as I could on my previous phone). Does anyone know how to do this? Second, has anyone...

I did some searching but couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for. I have the European version of the HTC Desire, but I want to buy a SIM card for data while traveling for about a month. Will be in 6 different countries. What is the best provider / service to purchase? Do any of them offer...

Hi all, I have a Wifi only tab. It didn't have the market installed. I've rooted, and I've copied the vending.apk file into the system/apps folder. When I try to install it, I get a message that it was not installed. That's it. I've tried different versions of the vending.apk file, and...

The GV 2.8 change log has this: Kernel update to fix led problem (ManU needs an update) What was the LED problem? If I flash GV 2.8, and then flash the ManU kernel I've been using, will it cause a problem?

Had my phone on and charging overnight. Somehow, between yesterday and today, my contact storage data was deleted. I had no contacts on my phone when I woke up this morning. I haven't changed anything or downloaded anything recently except a Google Maps update. Running GingerVillain. Using...

Hi all, Tried searching but didn't find anything about this. I've had my Desire for about a year. Recently, I've noticed that the physical buttons have become difficult to press. What I mean is, they aren't sensitive anymore and I have to press them quite hard to get them to work. It only...

Hoping one of you has seen this and fixed it. I am running Gingervillain. I only had this problem now that I started playing with theme manager and switching themes. (On the default, before having switched themes, it was fine.) Now, at the bottom of the home screen where I have the 3...

Running latest version of Gingervillain. Have 2 accounts setup in Android default Mail application. One is set to refresh "never" and the other is an Exchange account setup for "Push". Most days, I never see the Mail app on my battery usage screen - and I'm connected to Wifi most of the time...

Flashed GV 2.1 straight from GV 1.6. Now I'm having a strange problem. In some apps, when I am moving forward (i.e., not moving backward - hitting a submit button or a link) I'll end up with a black screen. The app isn't frozen, because the back button will get me back and then it usually...

Hi everyone, I have just flashed my first ROM (GV 1.4) and it seems to be working well. Thanks to all on this board for your help. Two questions: 1) How to get rid of the 3D App Drawer? I tried going into Villain Setup and downloading/installing the 2D app drawer application listed...

Hi everyone, I am considering rooting my phone. I'm hoping you can give me some information to help make that decision. I've read the procedures and many threads, so I have some idea what I'm getting into. I have an unlocked unbranded Desire (purchased online, no warranty). I like HTC...

Hi all, I am using the stock HTC messaging app. I am able to send normal text messages (that I type myself) and they work perfectly. However, I am unable to share things by SMS to my friends who also have Android phones. For example, I wanted to share an app with a friend. I went to...
