I do not understand why they don't make a simple lanyard hole for some smartphones. One this large especially, as it is not the most comfortable grip in the world. Here's how I modified the Galaxy Note to accommodate a lanyard. No worries about dropping it. Enjoy! Tien p.s. I did try...

Called Samsung today and asked about the issue of my 10.1 turning off by itself when reaching full power (or being charged at night). He said that it is designed to be turned off before being charged. Is that true? Or is that just their way of covering their asses due to a flaw? I really...

My phone was acting REALLY sluggish after using Tasker shortcuts (a known bug) as well as other programs. It became so problematic that I would have to reboot every day. I finally figured out that it was the caches that were slowing everything down. In comes ACCleaner and it works a charm...

I like the included app Quick Lookup and would prefer that to the regular Google search. I know that I can remap the LONG PRESS search key, but what about the SHORT PRESS (or TAP) search key? Anyone have any idea? Those that want to remap their long press (I actually like Voice Search, so I'm...

Heya, So, I got Visionary to root and all is good. Now, I want to replace the startup sound, but every thing I've tried seems to fail. Using Root Explorer, I renamed the two files (/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3 and /system/media/audio/ringtones/QuietlyBrilliant.mp3), I've...

Hey, Last night, I noticed that there was some plastic corners on the DHD under the battery cover. I thought this would be a perfect place to put a lanyard. So, I recklessly took an exacto blade to it and bored a hole out. Eventually, I got it big enough to loop a thin lanyard through it...

I feel really stupid. Okay, so using this I got it working with Defrost 2.6a and 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip. I then poked around in the Defrost app and saw the battery mod so I applied it. After a while, though, I decided I didn't like it and wanted to go back to this one. Here's the...

Hello, Looking for a widget with a single app task killer - one that can kill just ONE app. I want to kill, for instance, BeyondPod because it overtakes control of the music player when it runs (it gives it back, but only after the podcast is done). So, I'd like a "BP Kill" button. I don't...

So, I've seen this before, but forgot where. I think it was about contact linking or something. For now, to see this, go to Barcode Scanner and hit the menu button. From there, click Send and choose Contacts. It will give you the list below as the option to choose from. I know that those...

Heya, Live in Sweden, but speak English mostly. When I hit the quick search key (magnifying glass) and type in a query, I get the results in Swedish. Very annoying. I realize one can click on the "Google in English" link at the bottom, but that defeats the point of the quick search key (as...

So, I found out today that my phone is unlocked (3, Sweden doesn't seem to care). Any how, that's great because that means I can use it abroad simply by buying a new SIM. My question is this - when I inserted a different SIM (from Telia/Vodafone), it asked me to sign in to my Google account...

Kidding. Simple problem. I have two media players - Cubed (3) and BeyondPod. I also have a Bluetooth headset (Jabra Clipper) which I like and works well enough. However, one thing that bugs me - the inline controller is "hogged" by BeyondPod, even if it is not open (I use the back button to...

Hello, It looks like a bunch of people have gotten some kind of OTA update and I remember reading somewhere that those who have rooted have to simply download them. So, my question is, does the update affect rooted phones adversely? Also, where can I get the update? I looked on HTC's page...

It's so cool! It only worked the first time for me, but I will try it again. Anyone else tried it? Were you able to make it work consistently? Tim

I was wondering if anyone has this issue and if it can be resolved. I live in Sweden and the application is on my phone, but does not work. That is odd because it doesn't seem like it would be that difficult to do, especially if Google Maps already gives turn-by-turn directions. I'm guessing...
