Guest Joshuah Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 There's 2 ways to do this: With root 1) Download the Screenshot application (free). 2) Open the application, give it su permission, and once the text comes up, close it. 3) Press and hold the camera button for a second at the home screen. The camera application will pop up after a second with a Toast that tells you where the screenshot is saved. Without root 1) Install the Android SDK 2) Enable USB debugging on your device 3) Run DDMS from the tools directory 4) Select your phone from the list 5) Go in the menu, select Device, and then Screen capture.

Guest scrap2434 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 What's your weather widget and more importantly... is it accurate for Oz ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest black beard Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 What's your weather widget and more importantly... is it accurate for Oz ? It looks like the stock weather app / widget that comes with the AAP_CSL rom (GlobalWeather.apk), but only 3 homescreens - so can't be standard CSL rom. Will post mine shortly - just in the process of moving all my stuff onto my new 16gb microSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andy__P Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Here is mine with home++ I'd like to use home++ but all the home replacements have the problem that the icon grid is larger than on the stock screen. The stock one has 5 rows and all replacements i tried have only 4. That really bugs me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sml12 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 why do many people use the gmail app? I spent a few hours researching and testing this and the web-based gmail mobile site seemed to be better supported & developed by google - with many more features. why are you guys using the simple gmail app? or is the gmail icon just a link to your browser gmail page?

I spent a few hours researching and testing this and the web-based gmail mobile site seemed to be better supported & developed by google - with many more features. why are you guys using the simple gmail app? or is the gmail icon just a link to your browser gmail page? For me it's the gmail app..... to be honest didn't know there was a web-based, mobile specific alternative - but I can't see myself making the switch anyway. I very rarely send or reply to emails on the phone - I just like to know when I get a new one, and be able to read it on the go, so the "push" support of the app is perfect for me, as soon as an email hits my inbox, phone vibrates and lets out a little tune, and I know about it. I'd assume with the web based - you'd need to open the browser to see if you have new mail...... or do you still use the app so you get the notifications, and just launch the browser version to read / reply / compose etc? If it's the former - no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The native app is very basic and no faster than the browser app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
