i guess the original sms notification is still there, try to disable the notification in the stock sms / messaging app and see if that helps

thanks, the notification is now gone

Got a few questions here:

1) I get occasional lag in my browser. Funny thing is that, it's ONLY triggered when let's say transition between windows there's some pauses...then everything becomes laggy... Or let's say an image loading suddenly stutters...then it's all lagg. Nothing with my ram usage at all or my CPU speed..

2) How to eliminate the annoying chequered box in the stock web browser?

i prefer dolphin cos it uses the stock browser engine but with a lot more features..

hi guys. about cyanogenmod. so its stated that the purpose is to bring AOSP to all phones. lets say if a device is supported, a certain xperia s. although the android version at launch is Gingerbread, can I install AOSP on it? that is, have the vanilla android although Sony hasn't released their crappy 4.0 that is timeline

yes that's the purpose of cyanogenmod - you get plain jane vanilla android on supported devices

Hi. for my hp, the battery is still draining (ard 8%) although in sleep mode. is that normal?and which one battery saver do you guys think is good? juice defender or easy battery saver??

right now my sd card is only 2gb. if i wanna swap it with eg. 8gb sd card, can i just copy everything data inside the 2gb sd card into 8gb card, then put into my phone? can the system recognise it?

Hey guys, sows go launcher drain battery?

No you are missing the point.

Do i wait until sony release theirs or do i get update as soon as the mod is released?

this is up to you, if sony is confirm going to release theirs then just wait since officially rooting and installing a custom rom voids your warranty (although you could technically unroot, etc)..

battery drains can be tricky to identify but generally they are due to these few possible reasons:

- you have widget(s) that refresh every x minutes or hours - this may drain your battery
- your sync settings may affect your battery life a bit. if you want better battery life you can uncheck all the sync options on your settings / accounts & sync section and manually update them when needed
- you have packet data/2g/3g data turned on or you're not in 2g mode (meaning you're on 3g mode) - this drains battery too
- you have wifi/bluetooth turned on
- you have some background services/games that are still running that may eat up battery, check by going to your settings section to check the running services and terminate the ones that you feel are not necessary

those are some of the possible reasons although they may/may not be the exact cause, you have to dig and find out.

should be able to, i did this long time ago but i think i had some issues with apps in the SD, so I had to reinstall apps that i moved to SD. what you can do is backup your apps using some free data backup app like mybackup (which backs up the apps) - then restore them if there's any issues. you may have to do some trial and error but the only potential problem is the apps itself, the other data such as game SD data (those large 100-500mb data files) should be fine. your savegame / app preferences data should still be in your internal phone memory if i recalled correctly. but in any case just be prepared for the worst.

alternatively you can move those apps to your internal phone memory first before swapping out to preserve as many of the apps as you can (those that you prefer) then when you get the memory card, move the app back to the sdcard which goes to the new card. problem solved. good luck

why would you think it would drain more battery than normal? the animations probably would eat up a bit of juice but that's about it..the overall launcher shouldn't drain an extensively significant amount of battery compared to the stock launcher on your phone.

I am under Umobile U88 plan.
Should i allow data roaming?
can anyone help me out with this.

Is Brightstar a ori HTC distributor?
