On the bottom, it has a text showing from the person that last texted me. Just wondering how to stop it from showing up there because it defeats the purpose of having a pattern unlock if anyone can see who texted me. Please and thanks!
That's easy,just switch roms.

Stop cheating. People at least cant respond to the text with the patern unlock. But you could always replace the lockscreen with something.

Yeah, thanks for the helpful post. Because you obviously know enough about my life to judge anything. Maybe this forum is for help and not personal attacking. 3rd party lockscreens are lame, unnecessary and take up space. Went back to stock ROM. Thank you again for your help.

Nah. It'd be nice if it were possible, but it's not. =/
Man, I would definitely pay for anyone who took time to figure it out

It can't be done. It's not just that nobody is willing to try.

Hi all,
I am running SFR 1.1.1 and I was wondering if anyone can let me know if you have had problems with Voltage Control resetting to default figures. I am having to redo my VC settings at least every other day. Is this a known issue?
Secondly, is there a way to change the buttons on the notification pulldown (mine has wifi, bluetooth, vibration. 4G, GPS). I don't have 4G in my area so would like to change that to 3G so I can toggle my data on/off.
Thanks in advance!

On Voltage Control, after you have your settings, are you pressing the menu softkey and selecting "set on boot"? That will make your settings stick but. If you are undervolting, make sure your setup is good and stable. As far as changing the 4G icon, that's something a themer would have to answer.

It probably has to do with editing an xml and redirecting the controls of the toggles. Purely guessing though.
Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G.
That's a start. I'll double check. Thank you sir!
Its probably a lot more work then you think... you would have to add images and make an xml call for them and then have the xml tell your phone to toggle 3g... I'm a themer (not supr experianced) and I don't know how completey... ill look into it more when I have a cmputor again. But no promises.

I just purchased my SII and while I love everything about it I'm not liking the keyboard to much. I've come from the Moment with slide keyboard so it was no problem when replying to messages and being able to read what I was replying to. With the SII when I replay in landscape the keyboard fills most the screen and the text box takes care of the rest. I would have thought you could slide the text box down to read the message but it's not doing that. Any suggestions or different keyboards to try that would allow me to see the message I'm replying to while typing?

You can try BetterKeyboard from off the Amazon Market. It was initially up on the normal android market. It costs like three bucks but its well worth it. Its very very feature rich and its the only one that, off the top of my head, has the ability to not show a text box in landscape and just show a keyboard for input. It warns against only working on large screens like tablets, but I've rarely ever had it cause issues for me on this phone.

I would like to see the text box but also have the ability to slide the box down to quickly read the message then finish typing my reply. Maybe it's a different sms app I need? I'm also not a big fan of the little comic book chat boxes. I'd like to see the message fill the entire screen left to right when in landscape.

Oh I'm sorry man, I thought were asking for something entirely different. H'm... hold on moment.
**Edit**
I'm still not entirely sure if this is what you're looking for for.. but as for messages not coming up full screen so to speak and being stuck inside little bubbles, you can use Handcent SMS (my preference) though GOSMS or ChompSMS might do the same thing. I can completely customize my interface so that it looks however I want it. Down to the font and font color of each individual thread, the bubble style of each individual thread, the background image for each thread, etc etc etc. Its neat. Two screenies for you. One with bubbles in landscape. One without.

Is there any way to customize the keyboard? As in make a wider space bar? I keep hitting the . button instead of the space button
Here are the screenies.
**EDIT** Sorry they aren't hi-res. It wont let me upload hi-res pics from my phone using the premium app. Idk why

Take your pick of keyboards. There are plenty. Here are just five of the ones available for your phone.

Swiftkey X
I love Swiftkey X. It has the best word completion. My 2 cents
Agreed, SwiftKey X is what I use. I like it better than the Samsung, ICS, and swype.

I use thumb keyboard
I have started using Perfect Keyboard as I love how it does the macro text replacement kind of like the blackberry's and windows mobile keyboards used to. I can just type br and it will expand it to whatever I want (currently my email address) . I also like the split screen in landscape mode that give you a number pad between the split.
The developer is a member here at XDA.
I do like swyping, does anyone know if the newer versions have customized text replacement or macros? The version of swype that came pre-installed doesn't.

I got better keyboard again off the Amazon Market. I was happy to find it. Not so much to pay for it again but very happy to have it back.

I was looking at the screenlock app from the xda front page, and toyed with it a little, however, it made me wonder if anyone knows of, or can make an app that disables everything put the dialer?
I hate letting my kids use my phone because I never know what they are gonna snoop thru or if someone is going to send me something I wouldnt want them to see, it would be great to be able to lock out everything but the dialer in this type of situation... any thoughts?

You can use an app that locks out other apps. That way you can lock the apps you don't want your kids having access too, then disable SMS notifications and they will never read them or see them.
