AVIs or MP4s work for me. Don't encode them with too high quality and they play fine on rockplayer.

Q: Is there a way to get the Clockr and Calendr widgets closer together on my lock screen? I'm using Widget Locker.

Second Q: My Blade's power button isn't responding to my feeble taps any more. I have to push it rather hard to get it to do anything. Is there a way to fix this?

I am not sure if it can be considered as a Warranty return.

Some people have reported their power button getting worse - newer bladed have a white button (under the chrome part of the case)

Have a look at this website on your phone to confirm if you have a dead pixel: doihaveadeadpixel.com

If you do, then I recommend Googling something like 'how to fix a dead pixel'. Try it with your phone's screen type - that'll help immensely.

Of course, if you don't want to go into that stuff then you're probably best getting it swapped.

Are you sure? I have a white Blade that I bought on the 27th of December last year, and it has a really teeny tiny black button underneath the casing.

Strangely enough, if the casing isn't quite on properly, it works fine. ;)

Hmm - You could ask for a new one - it would get warranty replaced.

I have 8 blades I look after - friends/family I have not seen this yet.

Returning isn't really an option with a rooted phone, though...

unroot it then ;)

just install the stock rom and give it back

nobody will be the wiser!

It'll still have ClockworkMod on it, though... ;)

Ah, forget it. I has another question, anyways:

Q: Has anybody else noticed that the multitouch on the Blade is a bit poor? Try playing Meteor Blitz. It just doesn't happen.

It's a stuck pixel. Download jscreenfic and/or Pixel Fixer, and let them run for some time.

They didn't fix my stuck pixel, but there are many people who reported it to be working.

If it doesn't help, you can take it back, but they probably won't replace it for this. *wink* *wink*

flash the stock recovery.img file and clockworksmod is gone too ;)

here's my daft question (or, statement)....... My Blade is a bit sluggish when it comes to rotating the screen...

i.e. when I write a text, I like to rotate it so I have a bigger keyboard....but sometimes it seems to take a lifetime. I end up shaking it as if there's sand in it or something (which probably doesnt help).... could this be something improvable with a sleeker ROM? I'm basically using it out of the box right now, only have taken some Orange software off

DO you have this file - I cant find it anywhere - only the one included in the Hungarian TPT

I've found it to be a lot swifter in Froyo ROMs - I use Japanese Jellyfish but it's also much faster in FLB Froyo.

Not sure if you recieved my pm, but i will post it here too. The file is here

Note that i only tested the file in the Greek TFT Version of ZTE Blade (which worked in the 2 devices i tried) but im not sure if all the Blades use the same 'recovery.img'.

Anyway, flash it through fastboot and then you should be getting "FTM" every time you try to get in clockworks mod (vol down + power)

It's all good. My power button is working once more.

MY daft question is

How can you tell the damn thing is charging, when all you have is a red arrow in the bottom right? ;)

Keyboard on forums when posting a message can be horrendously laggy, is it improved under Froyo?

Hi,

I'm using messengers like Whatsapp, Pingchat or cnectd. My daft question is:

When I'm using OSF within WIFI everything works (notifications), also when only in GPRS/3G. But if I'm switching between one to another - new notifications won't show up any more. This always happens to the first new notification (new mail , new message...) and it gets lost.

Is there any way for a smooth switch? THNX
