hi
i think by default closing apps on ppcPE doesnt have any sound (like when you tap stylus and open the menu you get different sounds)
i want to know how can i get a sound when i close apps (without using skinning apps like WA2 etc) just by tweaking registry and making it play a sound ...
can any1 help?
TIA
I am running Myn's Warm 2.2, and I can't tell if this is a ROM issue or what, but when I run widgetlocker, I have a custom slider going to my SMS inbox. I dont use the default messaging app, I use handcent/go sms, but whenever I use widgetlocker to the sms inbox, it automatically opens the default app, and gives no options for the other one's.
Any ideas of what to do?
P.S. I also edited some of the .png's, dont know if that could be the issue?
Wow...2 days and no response...have you made your new messaging app the default in the system?

Is it possible the SMS slider is pointing to the "Messages" app inbox specifically? In contrast to pointing to the system default value for your assigned SMS app?
I think it may be, because the only way to get it to slide to the app i want without using the ugly shortcut of the app itself is to delete the mms.apk. But go sms doesnt show notifications w/o the stock apk. Is there a way to change it to point to the system default? I get nbo option to make an app the default through widgetlocker?
Thanks for finally responding and trying to help guys
how do I make an app the default in the system?
I sent an email to the dev, and linked him to this thread, so maybe he will post the answer here. If not, i will, just in case this issue shows up in the future.
Android's handling of the app defaults is awkward, hence the various apps on the market (including my HomeSmack) to help switching between default Home programs.
The only way to set a default app as of 2.2 is to launch it in a generic way* when there is no default set. Then you'll get the list with the checkbox to set it as a default.
So really what you need to do is clear the default, then slide the SMS slider in WidgetLocker. You should be able to clear the default by:
System Settings > Applications > All Applications > Messaging (Or whatever current default app is) > Scroll down and click Clear Defaults.
Note, you want the Clear Defaults button, not the Clear Data button.
However some vendors might set their app at a higher priority making it impossible to change the default.
The coming update for WidgetLocker will allow you to select an app shortcut and then independently change the icon. Either to your own, or one of the WidgetLocker built in slider icons.
*For the curious:
Code:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);

Has anyone ever told you they love you? Cause I do....awesome app too!
Sent from God, who uses CM7 RC1.
I love you so much lol.
So is there a way to use that last part so I can direct the slider myself or should I just wait it (i hope short) out?
Thanks so much again for responding

I'm running 2.0 and the functionality is indeed there. However I would just recommend deleting the slider off and then re-adding it and using a shortcut. Don't know if that helps, as I highly doubt that it will show the number of unread messages.
Hey Kevin I love the app but I keep having a few problems maybe you can help.
I'm on CM7 nightly #5 and widgetlocker slows it down significantly. I also keep running into the problem of all my Widgets disappearing randomly and never coming back. The background is still there but its blank.
Love the app. Thanks

I'm also having the problem of Widgets dissappearing.... happens after upgrading to a new nightly or after a random reboot..... being able to backup settings would be very helpful.....

Off topic, but for what it's worth, I'm having terrific results with WL in combination with an app called "No Lock" which disables the stock lock screen. No Root necessary.
I am rooted though running SkyRaider and now Warm 2.2 with Sense 2.0. I was always having problems with WL locking up my screen when the cpu got going and I was turning my screen on and off a lot quickly. Lots of black screens and such but never any problems without WL. So I run "No Lock" and WL runs perfectly.
Off topic, but good info and testing none the less.
Is the any tweak or mod to set a default action when I'm launching the Phone app? ex. to set it to launch directly in Contacts section or Groups section? This feature i miss the most from CM 7.2.
And i would like to know if there is any way to start the Phone app with the damn dial pad minimized? This feature i hate the most in ICS because it overlaps the recent calls and every time i need a full view of recent calls, i have to minimize it myself and it is annoying.
Thanx
Hello, I just wanted to ask you if there is a way of changing the default sound effects (anoying clapping) for samsung sound effects.
Thanks for reply and sorry if I have many queations.
Or any other sound effects. Anything would be better....
Gmail
Settings > click on your email address and select "inbox sound & vibrate" under the notifications section click on sound to change the notification sound for gmail
Messaging app
Settings - notifications - notification sound
Phone
For the phone the ringtone is going to be whatever you set in the settings app then you customize the other apps as outlined above
For the sound files, seach "Stock Samsung Galaxy System Sounds" on xda.
This appears to be a new "feature" with Pie. If you have apps that use their own notification sound but don't have a setting to allow the user to change the notification sound (e.g., ESPN, Life360, many others), Pie now apparently forces the app to use the default notification sound instead of the app's own "built in" sound. So I have the 3 XL's default "Popcorn" notification sound going off right and left and no idea which app is signaling me with a notification.
I have no idea how to approach this. Are the apps just in need of being completely updated to comply with Pie's apparent new requirement of a setting to select notification sounds? Or is this something that Google should be asked to change (back to)? Bearing in mind how few people are on Pie -- what is it, 2 or 3% of Android users? -- I'm not sure how responsive developers for big apps like Facebook or ESPN would be to requests to update their apps to comply with this new, um, feature of Pie.
