Are you rooted? Well even if your not Shootme has been updated to work without root I believe. I use Screenshot from giksoft and it has a timer option or a shake to snap option.

Ok i have the blazer rom for evo 4g, great rom. Cant figure out for the life of me what i keep hitting that is taking screen shots! lol i'm not sure if its the rom or the evo 4g.. when i google it it tells me applications to download but i haven't downloaded nothing for that. Its something custom on this rom and i cant figure it out! lol i do it daily multiple times... by just pressing some kinda keys on my evo... Can someone help me out?? Its irritating
Also using anthrax kernal so not sure if that would have anything to do with it but i believe it was doing this before the kernal got flashed.
Thanks!

Dude thanks so much that was it. I always see you around in those evo 4g forums. Thanks, and yea that blazer rom is probably my favorite one at the moment.

[Q] ...screw froyo

after trying every flavor out there, ive decided to stick with di18.
i am picky, i know, but the stock rom (rooted) is 100% what I like. there is not one thing that doesnt work the way i like it to.... so.... on that note
ive removed all the sprint apps, update.zip and its rooted but i cannot get the darn thing to stop asking me about the update...

help
make it stop!

I believe you could just rename or remove the systemUpdater.apk and it would stop checking for updates
.. I think thats the correct name but if its called something else please correct me
Edit: I would just use Titanium and "Freeze" the system updater at first. but i think this is removed on custom roms anyway so shouldn't be a problem to remove it

well, im a big fan of the syndicate rom but it carries over what i dont like
the "google" search is slower than the stock search
the browser seems slower
messages in the "call log" annoy me
cant search in phone app by last name
keyboard seems to "miss" letters
except syndicate, dk and ce based roms just seem slower
if i could build roms i would and remove the carrier iq and add the extra functions when you hold down the power button.
btw, im a guy.... i need to change my sn lol
so, im going to just remove system updater, hope that works

I'm with you,I liked DK28 the best out of all 3 FROYO releases,and I actually had DI18 on all day today just to see what it was like again; And I forgot how damn smooth it was compared to this hacked-up **** we have right now,I know EC05 is young (and I plan on building EC05 still) but I'm making a DK28/EB13/EC05 ROM with no carrier IQ,and most if not all EC05 mods should work,I start on that as soon as I get off work.

What you listed doesn't make sense...
the "google" search is slower than the stock search It is the stock search.
the browser seems slower Fast and checkerboardless in SRF.
messages in the "call log" annoy me Not present in SRF.
cant search in phone app by last name Fair.
keyboard seems to "miss" letters Better than DI18 and user-adjustable in SRF.

I don't think you need to defend SRF kOnane... I think my problem is UV kernels,but I still can't narrow down the static/pops. But this is what I've seen sofar,when fast scrolling (scroll fast,then remove finger fast) no pops,but if I scroll with my finger on the touch screen the entire time,it pops like crazy ; Which makes me think its the touch screen driver,or interference on the bus when using the touch screen...

[Q] Acer Launcher on G2

anyone here get acer launcher to install on the G2 on CM7?
if so, what apk did you use? does it FC on you all the time?

Its called Liquid Villian find it in the Dev section.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z using XDA App

I don't have experience with it, but this was the only thread I was able to find on XDA through search (that had any sort of recent replies). Did a search in the thread so I wouldn't have to read through the 10 pages and it doesn't seem like there was anyone reporting in from the G2/Desire Z camp to give success or failure stories, so you'll have to test it out for yourself.
The only other alternative I can think of right now is mentioned by joe3681 above me in the Liquid Villain thread. I flashed the rom when it was first released and gave it a couple of minutes, but it was a drastic change and I missed the features/familiarity of CM7, so I went back. It definitely isn't CM7 if that's what you're looking to keep, but if the launcher is something that's really that important to you, then this may be your only option. The dev doesn't seem to be actively providing updates to it as it seems stable/nothing to update, but a gingerbread port does seem to be in the works/planned.
It should also be noted that there is now an option in CM7 to have the status/notification bar at the bottom (under tablet options in CM settings). This might give you a slight compromise.
Hope I helped a little bit.

yea it does say not installed if you try to use the apk to install it. im guessing there is a compatibility issue

Launchers aren't typically listed in the app drawer. Once it's installed, push the home softkey and it will ask you what you want to use to complete the action. Set it to use the launcher of your choice as default. The same goes for ADW, LauncherPro, Go Launcher, and more I'm sure. Go Launcher does have an icon I believe though.
Or are you saying that the apk fails to install altogether?

Yes I am saying it does not install at all

[Q] Noob needs help :( lol

hey guys, i need some help here lol..... basically, i have no idea what im doing.... i rooted my phone (evo 4g) and i have the warm 2.2 rom right now (which i like alot) i like how its all blacked out and got some transparent stuff, real clean.. BUT i HATE the lock screen.... wanna get the "ring" lock screen, but i have no idea how to do it... also i downloaded "synergy w, god mode" or something like that, and everytime i boot into recovery and try to install it off the sd card, it loads and installs, BUT when it brings up the white HTC Evo 4g Screen when i reboot, it stays there and doesnt ever boot.... ive let it set for like and hour, and it still does nothing..... basically.... i wanna know how to change my lock screen to the one in the sinister rom i think? not really sure what the name was... i think it was sinister.... it had the sweet ring at the bottom you would drag up to unlock, but i didnt really like anything else about the rom..... is there a way to mix and match? and also where do i go to find more mods for the warm 2.2 rom? i have the transparent title bar, thats it..... HELP any advice it GREATLY appreciated, im trying to learn this stuff as fast as i can, but its so overwhelming lol Thanks in advance guys!!!

Before you flash synergy wipe everything. Factory reset, and both cache. And you should use the non gmode synergy. Also look in mods in the second post of the synergy post for a transparent notification bar

Ya when I flashed it the first couple of times it just hung at the white EVO screen so I pulled the bat and wiped everything BUT the SD card and it went great. Also looks pretty good now that I got the whole 3D look going

Install the non god mode rom, god mode one isnt anything to go crazy about. I recommend baby steps since your newly rooted, so stick with what you know will be the easiest sure thing and work your way up until you are comfortable with all things Android

ok ill have to try that!..... as for now i have warm 2.2, adw launcher, and lock bot.... ill take some screen shots.... one thing i do miss is the HTC widgets (calender, favorites) stuff like that... is there a way to get these??

If you use launcher pro plus from market, it has some widgets, but not quite like sense (and i personally like ADW better than LPP). Beautiful Widgets in the market has sense-like clock widget. I never have found anything that compares to the htc mail widget, though (thats one of the only reasons i use sense a lot)
Lockring: as long as you're on synergy, or any sense 2.1/3.0 rom, youll have the lockring. There are threads (MANY) with custom lockrings to flash. And the greatest devs in the world, that even take requests
Have fun.

Using adw you have the sense Widgets. I use to use adw but since installing synergy I'm all over sense.

ANYWAYS with that being said... im experimenting with the whole rooting thing, so i dont ruin my new one lmao... so im not wasting a whole lot of time customizing my home screen and downloading apps n junk, cuz im just going to have to do it all again monday lol.... but heres what i got so far and i think ill stick with this when i get my new one.... i would really like to find the stock "favorites" widget and calender, mail widget... i really liked them lol..... BTW i like the whole minimalistic theme.... simple=better looking IMO.....

What recovery are you using..... synergy requires amon ra..... if you are using rom manager .... you can switch recovery to amon ra..... flash alternative recovery at bottom of menu on rom manager.... you will be able to flash synergy thru amon ra........
Fflexed from my SYNERGY EVO!

hmmm.... maybe, i am using rom manager, maybe that has something to do with it? im really not that worried about it anymore....i have a decent look that im satisfied with right now..... oh yeah.... because im so new to rooting and all that stuff, if there any sweet benefits that im not hearing about? like what other cool stuff is there to do other than changing themes, appearances? thanks! lol

I don't think you can. It's there to show u what u opened and its basically a shortcut to go back to the program or app.

I know synergy has one that was made to remove it, but since its only 2.1 im not sure if it will work, you can nand and then try if you want. I will attach it with this post. Give it a try and see if it works for your rom.
