I've tried a few launchers, and have recently been using dodol. Kind of liked it at first, mostly because of the awesome steam punkish theme I have. But dodol isn't really performing to my satisfaction. I would like to try and keep the steam punk feel. So does anyone know of a good launcher that...

So I followed the stickied guide to downgrade, which worked perfectly. I'm typing this on my boost volt, z3 and rooted. However, the process left my phone seemingly with no carrier. I can make calls and send texts, but have no data. (Currently using home Wi-Fi). I have no boost mobile apps...

Trend out to be the night that android forums was down for maintenance. So I couldn't downgrade, and the issue I ran into was trying to open the port through device manager. My friend has Windows 7 premium. I tried googling the issue but couldn't find a fix for it. I had the dll file and tot...

Does this mean our boot loader has been unlocked and custom kernels can be flashed?

I just recently started using nova launcher, and then started playing around with live wallpapers. I settled with 3d parallax, but it constantly crashes, leaving me with a black background. And sometimes when I try to reset it, it says something like wallpaper picker has failed. Is this a...

So I get to the screen pictured below, where I need to select the dll file, and it tells me wrong dll. I can't continue, and I can't root. What am I doing wrong?

I've seen as large as 128 gigs for sale online, which costs more than the phone did. But if I were to buy that microsd, would the volt even recognize it? And before you start saying how That's more storage than necessary, cloud drive blah blah blah, I would fill it with music. I don't always...

I might have found an answer to my own question, an app called hype machine. Costs $4 in play store. Haven't tried it yet...

A friend of mine just a copy of a hacked Pandora one apk, No ads and unlimited skips. Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this apk? I tried Googling it but only found broken / removed links

I'm an audiophile like no other. I love music, all kinds, and I can never have enough music. I love finding new music as much as I can. I have music in at least seven different languages, but I'm bored with my collection at the moment. SO the app idea. I want to find music from other...

I first heard of this thing about five years ago in a Wired magazine. You wear this shirt that has sensors throughout it, and you hug someone. The shirt records the pressure, warmth, etc. of the hug and sends it to your friend who is also wearing a HugShirt and they feel the hug exactly as you...

Pretty much topic. Also, to be clear, the debug menu and other dialer codes are deep level hacking right? As in, if I don't know what I'm doing I can brick my phone?

That's great and all but it doesn't say anything about the phone or how it secures your data. When more info is released I will gladly look into it

It is subscription based, but you get a free year with the phone. Same with the encrypted texts and calls. You get a free year for yourself and one other person

Seriously. Everyone has gotten so off topic from what this hold thread was supposed to be about. I wanted to know what the service is like, what the phone is like, instead you are all throwing in your opinions of whether this technology is useful or not.

Thomas Jefferson is quoted as saying "The man who gives up privacy for security deserves neither." Or something to that affect. I have nothing to hide either, but does that mean the government has a right to all of my information?

Well let's be realistic. If the nsa wants your info they will get it. But stuff like the Blackphone can at least help you stay off their radar

If what I read about the Blackphone is correct, the data is encrypted on their servers in a way that it cannot be accessed even from the room where the servers are located.

I just read a full review of the phone and how it works to secure your data. Pretty interesting.

It's supposed to be the most secure phone available, and certainly has the price tag to match. The website has the phones technical specs but I'm not nerdy enough to understand how good they are. I hear it comes with a modified version of android that's more customizable

I havent tried using it yet much, has anyone noticed an increase/decrease in performance or speed as opposed to dalvik?

Is there an online guide, or tutorial anywhere for using this? I just installed it, and the amount of things it can do is a bit overwhelming... Also, on first opening it, I get this message. Not sure what it means. Can anyone explain? Thank you for any help!

In my notification tray there is always what looks like a spinning sun, and I have no idea what it means. Also, sometimes, there's something that I finally figured out is called smart watch (I think?), looks like an eye ball something. But I don't know what that is either and never lasts longer...

And what does that mean for customizing? Still learning, and have been having trouble understanding about the bootloader

Are hangouts and lumen toolbar safe to remove?
