If you are using handcent sms, it is an option in settings - auto convert to mms

If andrewtst bricked his phone by pulling out the power and battery when it was in the midst of flashing the radio (no progress bars 4tl), kinda means it pretty easy to make a mistake like that? After all, he managed to flash the ROM successfully.

Lesson learnt the hard way. I'm going to have to really do my research before attempting to flash any radios. hmm.gif

Any idea why does my phone slow down? I try to kill all the task but it seem slower then last time issit I place to much Widgets on my screen? Really need help in rooting anyone from penang willing to help?? Hehhhe.. and my rom from 136 drop to 83 when I use twitter and web browser it start to drop to 27 have to kill all the task to get back 8x memory

If you kill tasks indiscriminately, your phone will slow down for a bit (to reload apps that were not supposed to be killed). I find that the phone actually performs better when I let the OS handle the task killing. Anyway, in the next OS update, they are going to neuter the task killer apps by removing the key API (due to misuse).

There is actually one more method of memory management which lets the Android kill apps that hogs background memory without using the TasKiller. I did it once and it was really awesome. Problem is, I change my ROM all the time so it has to be re-done all the time. I think someone actually posted a link of it somewhere in this thread. But its going to be a long search if you guys want to find out coz it's a link to another forum smile.gif Or, you can search on xda / modaco..Dang, I really need to recompile all of these tips etc.

Shahz, are you talking about AutoKiller?

Can't quite put my finger on why but Swype is the first alternative keyboard that I've used for an extended period of time. Had tried ShapeWriter, SlideIT etc. previously but kept going back to the stock keyboard after less than a day. Somehow Swype just feels more usable and faster.

Is there any widget/app that just simply off the screen? I don't want complex screen lock app like Lock 2.0, it makes it looks like IPhone sad.gif  I just want a simple widget to off & lock the screen instead of keep pressing the power button.

Couldn't find it anyway.... all are complex screen lock which will change the theme, skin...etc...

If there is such an app, I've not found it yet. Instead I set it to minimum timeout (15 secs) and use Screebl Lite to keep my screen on (ignore the timeout) when I'm using the phone.

Anyone of you kind folks have a mirror for Google Apps (gapps-passion-ERE36B-2-signed.zip)? More to the point, if anyone can point out how I can get back my Market Place widget, that'd be a great help. Flashed CM5.0.4.1 and its (market place icon) missing. The mediafire download link for 'gapps-passion-ERE36B-2-signed.zip' is extremely slow and unreliable.

You need to learn to do it yourself, or else you will be find it hard to maintain your phone moving forward. If you can't update to new/updated ROM or fix problems without needing to depend on someone to do it for you, I don't really see the point in you rooting/installing custom ROMs. It would be like running Windows/Linux without knowing how to install/update a newer version or apply hotfixes/patches.

Added on April 5, 2010, 9:08 pmErm~ Guys~ I didnt install new apps for quite a sometimes and just updated my existing apps once there are available~ (^^)
I found that my remaining capacity still reduce little by little~ (==)
Is is better to uninstall the existing apps than direct update the apps??

Shouldn't matter, since you can imagine that newer versions would tend to be bigger in size compared to the previous version (new features etc). The size increase and reduction in capacity is expected.

N1 and iPhone have their own respective markets. Sometimes the buyers just don't realise which market segment they themselves are actually in.
