i heard that when you close an app it save where you left off... might want to check number 3... well there two week until launch date they might cook something up and the mean time but..... number 1....

File Manager would be nice as well as app multitasking.

some i agree with and some just give it up... or dont buy. like expanded storage that can be removed you most likly if you are apart of xda flash your phone at lease once a month when there is a new rom so this is not what you make it to be. the thing is msft has moved to the future of storage try to do the same...

Lol. That seems like a step backwards imo. Now, if you had the ability to remove your sd card and put it in other things (like it was made for) without having to wipe your phone while also still having gigs of data onboard, that would be the future of storage (even though other phones do that already.)

Microsoft won't be able to allow switching of memory cards now that they have chosen to go down this route. (Unless they release an upgrade that forces everyone to hard reset their devices) This is a problem wp7 users will always be stuck with.

Sounds like WM would be a better fit rather than WP7.

Hmmm, WM6x on a W7 device, I wonder if anyone will try doing that. I'd keep my old i900 if I could fit a 1GHZ chip in it, just to give it a bit more pep.(I'm easily pleased where my phone in concerned )

[Q] How can I make the Bluetooth discoverable all the time?

Hi,
Yeah I'm aware its "danageraus" to put the BT discoverable and on all the time, but still,
Is there a way to make it on discoverable with no time limit (120 seconds)?
Thank you.
Yarden.
MMM you tried with bluetooth on/off widget by Curve Fish?
also the HTC stock bluetooth widget does it,,,
What do you mean by HTC stock bluetooth widget?
Can you explain that please? I don't understand where you see it.
BTW, the curve fish doesn't have that option.
Only, on and off, nothing about the "Discoverable" marking.

and then browse the settings widgets and select the bluetooth widget...

if u enables this widget your device is visible all the time,,
Thank you for helping but unfortunately you are wrong.
I'm not visible to any one, I must go to settings to enable this 120 seconds Discoverable option.
Maybe you tested it with Known-Partner and he already got you on list, but with new people it can't be visible, I just tested trice.

The time do get changed from 120 to 0 and successfully store but the permission after reboot return to read and write
If permissions won't stay, use root explorer and on properties press "sticky", and they stay there.
However, I'd simply go for JB or ICS, who have the visibility option in settings...
rather than giving the "sticky" to anything, since it's a special permission, for which, I admit, I don't know the full impact on system.

[HOW-TO] Delete and Change Stock Ringtone/Notification/Alarm/UI

For those who want to delete annoying ringtone or alarm sounds from stock one, here is a simple solution to change it
You need : Root Explorer / Root Browser
1. Go to root.
2. Open system/media/audio
3. (See, there are 4 folders : alarm, notification, ringtone, and ui) Choose folder that you want.
4. If you don't like the sound from that folder, just delete it. If you want to give your own sound, just copy it to the folder that you chose. But i recommend your sound file type is ogg vorbis. You can download Audacity from (http://audacity.sourceforge.net) to helps you convert the sound file
5. (Important) If you choose ui folder and want to change the system sound, don't forget to change your new sound's name like the old one!
5. Done!
After that, if you have problem about ringtone loop, see my thread below

Can it be done without root?
I have a new GT i9100G which is not rooted and as of this time I do not wish to void the warranty. So, my question is, can this be done without rooting my device? If not, will using Odin to root the device (flashing a kernel) set the counter to 1, and if so, how do I reset it without a jig?
PS. I hope I am not posting this in the wrong place and apologize if I am.

How do I remove them from there too? I wiped cache and Dalvik cache, but they are still there although there are only 3 alarm sounds left, the list of sounds in the alarm menu is still the same...

Never mind... Problem solved... In the beginning, even after deleting the sounds I didn't want, they were still visible in the menus. If I selected them they would be mute of course...

Once you are done with removing/adding the ring tone, restart your phone. It will update the new list.

the way to update the ringtone list is just restart your phone, or you could edit the ROM zip file first, before you flash it in your phone.

Use Audacity: It's free, and open source!
If your GT-S5830 has only one speaker (mono), you can, if your audio is stereo, create a mono track which should help somewhat. Audacity>new>open your file> tracks> stereo to mono. You can also use audacity to boost the db of the of the audio signal (take care not to cause clipping). Audacity>effect>amplify.
Hope this helps.

100% most definitely. Maybe not start screen tile arrangements as they may make some double wide and quarter size just to show the new sizes (Just guessing, who knows.) but for sure everything else will stay.

another problem is the background picture and fonts for live tile are not clear as before because the tile is enlarged.

[Q] HOX - International - 4.2.2 - Voice Record

Hi there people!
I know about the root + txt file method with 4.1.x, but I've been wondering if the 4.2.2 update changed anything.
Anything as in some option that allows a voice recorder to work.
Even client side record would be great (two-way would be heaven).
Anyone been experimenting with this?
If it's absolutely non-doable... could you link me a ROM that is 100000000000000% stable/works and got voice recording?
I'm willing to root the phone as the warranty is over anyway. But the user is my father, and he is an 'old guy'. The rom should be 100% working/stable/etc, if I don't want him to have a heart attack because some 1337 h4xx0r thought messing up core apps is a good idea.
(^ The above is just an example, I respect the work of the fellow XDA hackers.)

Most of roms with good support will works just fine without any restart for weeks, but after some time (or after instaling some apps) something can go wrong.
I've got ProBAM v4.4.1 and call recording is working but it's not a good choice for "old guy"
Try sense 4+ roms like Viper or ARHD - they were good looking, easy to use, rock stable and call recording (2way but without bt) was working fine.

(I'll also have to make sure his data won't be lost. I had to return his phone. Backed contacts up with 2-3 apps. All failed and he lost 20+ people. :/)

Yep, all hardware works but to make 2way sound recording you have to unlock, root your phone and apply "Sound_Phone_Original_REC.txt" patch.

Unlocking my phone was one of first things I've done after buying it (because of blated operator software), so it wasn't a problem for me.
I agree that everything should work with stock firmware without unnecessary things to do.

I also has this *bug with speed up ringtones and voice recording files using PA3.6 rom.

Could you enlighten me about this bug ? (thank you very much for your replies, they help, a lot.)
I mean, how are the sounds different? How do you notice?
The backup: The problem was due to the app my father uses and the different way to store contacts.
Basically, he thought a smart phone, is a smart phone.
He had a Nokia before, and used it to contain every detail about people. Like 3-5 numbers.
When he got the HTC, he started to input contacts by using the online interface.
It sucked. It messed up everything. Like the numbers got mixed up and such.
Finally, MyPhoneExplorer let him to create his contacts.
But then... he needed a Contacts app too. (The default sucks.)
So I went on the market, and GOD BLESS the creators of Contacts+. It IS what the default should look like.
The rooting: It's a business phone so to say, he works on it/with it all day. Well, he relies on it as he relied on the Nokia.
You know, like you would rely on your dog, the best buddy. And that's why I didn't want to risk it.
Warranty is the other problem. The phone already had a yellow tint, and a few weeks ago he dropped the phone and the corner of the protective glass got cracked. It's nothing, but it voids the warranty. (There is insurance on the phone, so I'll just return it when the company goes out of stock from the One X and ask for a One. Seriously, they ask for a high insurance price monthly, and they would give you an "obsolete" phone.)
SO YOU WERE SAYING... (the post got tl;dr, sorry)
Which rom you say I should install?
I rooted phones and such, but f... I almost bricked a friend's Milestone. (Lucky it had two recovery ways to fix things.)
So... yeah. Any "non-ricer", standard, rock-solid rom.
Thank you!
I already owe you a beer.

When playing recorded call on phone it plays 2 or 3 times faster, so you cannot understand a world.
The same thing is with ringtones (played much faster than it should be).
Files are working fine(normal speed) when played on other devices.

About rely on Android phone:
For more than a year I use HOX like a normal phone (calling, sms) about less than a week, and as a normal phone it's OK - battery lasts for 4-5 days (not close to Nokia: week or two
Almost everyday I'm using mp3, gps, mail, camera and it has drastically impact for battery life.
Phone lasts for max 2 days with 2-4h onscreen time.
So, except battery life you can relay on it

As I say before, try any sense4+ rom like Viper or ARHD (booth are great and you/your father should be pleased.
They're stable, easy and quick to use (lighting fast camera comparing to AOSP/CM), lot of custom options with as good or better battery life comparing to stock HTC rom.
Or wait a month and see what people will tell about sense5 roms.
I've got some issues with cpu freq lock to 1,5Ghz, 8h daining battery to shutdown wakelocks and call recorder doesn't want to work on MaximusHD 20/21 with sense5.

Okay, last two:
- How is that ringtone speed up? Is it annoying?
(He certainly won't reboot the phone all the time as there are times when he is receiving calles each minute for hours.)
- So I'll stick to the simple root method, and wait for Sense 5. (It looks neat. I mean, damn, it is slick.)
Which root method should I follow? The one in the recording thread post (you linked)?

It depends.
After beer or two or after a joint you don't care a lot;P
Seriously: just check by yourself.
Take any ringtone and play it with fast forward mode (most of media players has that feature) and imagine that you hear this when someone is calling.
I had this issue only once, just after applying patch. After complete shutdown and powering up it was fixed for me - phone worked about 2-3 weeks without restart or any kind of problems.

In link above there are three detailed guides how to unlock phone. It doesn't matter which one choose, result should be the same.

I will apply the fix on this weekend.
But damn, it already creeps the hell out of me.
- I will lose every data again. I don't even know how to backup anymore. I used apps, desktop apps, HTC"s tool, everything. Then I still lost some really important data.
- I have to provide the unique ID of the device. I fear. If I ever break it (got insurance on it), will they claim it as a jailbreak problem?... I mean, of course software and hardware got nothing to do with each other if the glass breaks on the display for example, but we are talking about big evil companies.
How comes Samsung phones works perfectly (like they can record OOTB), but HTC sucks this much?
And HTC can design a proper phone (One), while Samsung uses a plastic crap body (S4/Notes).
Life isn't fair I guess. (But functionality > design, so this was our last HTC. Ever.)

10.0.10586.11

Lets begin with new build on this thread.
I must say I am a little bit disappointed, if this is really suppose to be RTM build. There are still some settings in phone that have windows phone 8.1 look, which is really shame. And the most annoying thing is that I can't update Lumia apps, Here apps, and even system core apps that are part of Settings like motion data, network services, etc. And I don't find glance screen options any where in Settings.
I do clean install and Im stuck on windows logo screen. It just keep restarting.
Lool
Will try hard reset now...

Thanks for the heads up. It is interesting that I had empty values for OEMID and SCMID. I first tryed with only entering Nokia at oemid, and it looks like everything updated sucesfully. But it is strange that all system apps in Settings under Extras are still looking like in Windows phone 8.1, like glance screen, motion data, etc. Is there a way to update this or microsoft didn't make those app for W10M yet?
I think so.
In my phone this build have a battery drain effect, i feel like it take less to get 0%. Do you know how to fix this?
Mine take 2 days to drain. XL.

Should i hard reset? Even idle the phone take a lot of battery, probably an app?
Look for battery saver, battery use.
Ok, some rare bug happen. i have bluetooth headphones, so i try to pair with my phone and i discover the bluetooth was enabled but in notification center looks like its disabled. That mean the bluetooth was enabled the whole time.

And it won't work in future, cuz MS cut off apk's support. They freeze Astoria or have canceled it.

Last build with Astoria runtime is 10536, as I remember.
Check this theme. Maybe it will be useful for you. I haven't tried that, what mentioned there.
And of course, be careful and you are doing all at your own risk.
Is it true that L950 & L950XL is with the build 10586?
I don't think this is appropriate yet
