General question
How to automatically lock all butons after certain time?
This is very usefull for my wife as she always throw the Excalibur to her big bag when she finishes a call, and sometimes with the movement it presses some buttons and even make calls!!!
Thanks in advance

Long press the end key. 2-3 seconds tops.
Only way i know off.

there are a couple of pieces of software that will automatically do it. one is smart toolkit, the other escapes me but it's something like autolock or something like that.
Good luck!

If you're a SmartToolkit user there's an option on Control Panel to AutoKeyLock your Excalibur. It has some customizations also it's pretty cool. Check it out, I think that's what you're looking for
Hope it helped
Cheers

Why do I have a green dot?

I know, not the most interesting topic, but it's been bugging me. Why do I have a green dot beside my name rather than a blue dot?
Is it because you don't like me? j/k
I figured it was some kind of new member thing (greenhorn). Maybe completely wrong, I don't know, someone tell me please.
It looks blue to me. Maybe your post just upgraded you to the next level.
Green means the user is online.....
u'll always see a green dot next to your name.
thats because its green when you are online and you got to be online to use this forum.
if still you want a blue dot, just log out ond browse the forum.
your wish fulfilled.
Hooray!
Now I feel slightly smarter. Ok, enough of that. What's important is that I look stupid to everyone else.
Hooray!
You can keep a blue dot, by changing the settings in ur profile that shows when u are online, if u so desire.
Dave
If I am logged on to a computer and no one is viewing any of my posts on any forum that I have typed, how do we know that I really have a green dot??
Might have to check it from my Phone while in the icebox checking the bulb in there when the door is closed, or would that be out in the woods where trees are falling??

Sadly, the question is: "What do you get if you multiply six by nine." At least, that's all the information we've got on the question. The readout was taken just a tad before the algorithm had been fully explored.
Sorry, but that's all I've got to show for seven and a half million years' work.
and to think all this got started cos of the green dot (scared). anyways book me up for some calculus too
Green is the new pink.

It's the forum's caste system. Newbies get green, mods get to post naughty pictures.
Oh, yeah, I know him. It's Mr. Churchill. A personage I greatly admired, BTW. Man, that bulldog has a talent, eh? Probably licking the green dot off of his brow.
Thanks, Mike, for reminding me. I need new swim goggles. The lenses popped out the other day when Alex Curran showed up at my pool with some of her friends the other day. The papparazzi shot some pictures. You can see them here:

You know I think I read an article about the G1 not having turn by turn voice directions for GPS. I understand there will be developed 3rd party apps but FYI. I'll look for the article.
Here it is: http://www.navigadget.com/index.php/2008/09/29/does-t-mobile-g1-really-have-gps-navigation
oh shoot, i know, i'm a newbie, but before you go, maybe you are a pro in solving keyboard mapping problems with the excalibur http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397723&page=7
(the bottom post) i really have a prob with that, and can't find anything.
best regards and have fun with youre G1!
Wow... This is all so heartfelt and touching. I feel like I wanna pull out my yearbook like everybody else and let you sign it!

It would allow us to reply to all the "how do I flash a rom?," "which is the best rom?," "should i buy a gnex?," "what is the battery life like on the gnex?," threads much, much faster.
This would be great for efficiency. Rather than taking the time to copy/paste the URL of a web-hosted image(possibly uploading one or google image searching one first), or upload an image from our own hard drive as an attachment, we could simply enter in a few keystrokes and have our reply finished in seconds.

Or you could just say to them that the instructions are in the first post, you cant ask that question it is against the rules, phone choice is a personal choice. Also you could put nothing at all and hit the report button instead, i am pretty sure that is why its there.

Colored username?

So today I noticed that my username turned blue, and i couldnt find anything using the search term "colored username" nor "blue username". First I thought it was because of RT, but I then compared to some other RTs (which was grey), so that wasnt the case.
I'm confused, sorry for this silly question!
edit: so i noticed some are blue and some not

I have also heard that if you Delete cache and cookies in your browser, this might fix it for some.

[userbars]Nexus⁴ 's Great Isn't It? Post your hawt Nexus⁴ userbars here:)

Searched the stickies, digged everywhere, but no signs of life of Nexus⁴ userbars
i was only curious why such a great phone which sold out so fast and so difficult (and required paiful waiting )to get one,
didnt have gorgeus userbars for it yet *at the time the question was asked*
So guys, you'd got Nexus⁴ userbars? Please do post it here or provide their links here :laugh:

In case you didnt get what i mean...
According to http://www.soslang.com/term/Userbar, userbar is defined as
Usually a signature in a forum, 350 pixels in width, by 19 pixels in height, which usually displays images and the font "Visitor" Displaying what the person likes, such as bands. They can be stacked, or fade into other userbars.
Member 1: I like your Userbar, where did you get it?
Member 2: I made it with my hawt photoshop skills.
