Got some questions? think they're stupid? POST 'EM HERE

Well I finally gave up and got Go Launcher and guess what? It does everything I wanted and MUCH faster and easier. I have my custom icons now and I believe it or not I have my app carusel I mentioned a couple weeks ago. Ultimate Faves Pro app. Fantastic!



Now one last question for the day. I am trying to download the correct drivers for the Ascend onto my laptop because it wont recognize the Ascend. I tried to let the laptop search for drivers but it comes up with nothing. Google gives me 6 billion choices for Android but nothing specifically for the Ascend and I dont want to get the wrong thing.



So could someone link me to the most current, correct driver and then do a short step by step on how to initialize them? Thank you much.



Go > ADW

Ok I'm officially pissed off and I'm tired of feeling stupid about things everyone else seems to do in their sleep.

I can't change icons. I dl icon packs for adw and I can't select them. They are not in adw. Not in theme chooser. I rebooted. I longpressed the regular icons, longpressed the wallpaper and checked widgets.

I have a whole list of problems I'm having but I have been trying to figure things out on my own, but the simplest things are killing me.

lol I still run into problems that others seem to be able to do without issues. But that's what the forums are for, the shoulders of giants and all. :)

Ok first of all thanks to all who "helped a dummie out" thoughts of a book "android for dummies" lol. But when updated to the cm7 is the player stock or a better one. Sound still low,also maybe stupid but I do not see a stop button in it so when you play and pause and exit the app is still running right? how to close the player in cm7
thanks

Hey nutt, thanks, sorry so long to reply. Been a strange week. Most of the issues are in my "Wifi Issues AGAIN" thread. My last post there.
Im using: 2.3.5
Kernel 2.6.29-pef
Mod cm7.2-ascend-09132011
Build 09132011

Thank you kindly and remember to babystep me through any instructions.
 
So I have my previous post asking about the player...not a big issue right now. I am running CM7.2-Ascend-09132011- but I am still having the issue with the wired headphones. First boot the headset works fine, calls,voice and all however the next time I try to make or receive a call I can not hear them but they hear me. Whats up any fixes on that or a setting maybe....maybe a total bust? restart over again?
Thanks again

Power Amp is the best and you can select speaker loud settings in the EQ, thats the best and by far app for the ascend music player.

I've read here somewhere if you plug in the headphones & re-boot,they will work properly.
However,if you unplug them & then try to use them again,they only work as you described.

So,..........to have the headphones work properly on CM7,plug in the headphones & re-boot & leave them plugged in until you'be completed your phone call & everything should be O-TAY!
I know this can be a little cumbersome,but,it's a small sacrifice to give in return for the overall increased performance from stock ANDROID 2.1.1/2.2.2
 
i got a ?? that is probably not too bright but hey...can i stream a movie from my vibrant's pocket blu library to my ps3 or any wifi blu ray device or must i b forced to only watch it on my phone???

yes but you can download the trail, and mines never had expired. :)
 
downloaded poweramp and messed around with the EQ but still volume is extremely faint with the navigator ven with the nav volume set to high. also other sounds are low too. I know I had seen allot of problems with this phone as far as sound other then calls
any ideas pics,settings etc?
thanks again.
Is the sound still a problem with bluetooth? and does the stereo bluetooth also allow call sounds in both ears and navigation and other sound from phone too?
 
If I take the Ascend overseas, will I still be able to connect to the internet via wifi? I don't want to use the voice service while travelling, but I will need access to mail/chat.
