I prefer to have 'screen orientation' turned off as I hate walking down the street and the screen constantly rotating...is there a video player (outside of youtube) that plays videos automatically in full screen WITH screen orientation turned off?

If you mean for local videos, RealPlayer is your best bet.

A few questions o' my own:

First (silly): How many of you own an Android plush?

Second (not silly): Is it best to completely charge your phone before applying a new ROM?

Third (ttly not silly): When do I delete the contacts stuff for JJ9? Before flashing the ROM or after?

1) i dont!

2) you dont have to, i never do, but its best to charge it after install

3)if you did a data wipe, its fine anytime

although check the thread for more info:

Got a replacement OLED phone instead of my tft ( yaaaaay :lol:)

I want to ask all the people who got a replacement did you get a complete phone with all the stuff with it ( battery, sd card and cable?

If you dont get that, can you complain and get them?

Or do u have to live with it?

Thanks in advance

ANYONE?????

ANYONE?????

I Swapped the main body of my phone with the courier, I kept the original box and all accessories, including the back/battery cover, sim card and sd card, the only thing they replaced was the actual phone. This was done via online though, not instore.

Phlum-Cheers for the suggestion, Realplayer works like a charm.

Couple of questions

1st one I asked elsewhere but never got a reply

If I make a backup with clockwork or sebs recovery manager can I copy the recovery folder from within the clockwork folder on the SD card to another phone's SD card and then restore to that recovery file on the second phone?

2nd - rhetorical - why doesn't everyone use FTP to wirelessly transfer stuff from their PC to phone? No need to muck about with data cables - just use SwiFTP or similar

Here is one stupid question: how do I set black wallpaper? Everywhere. Black. Nothing. No wallpaper at all. Simple task but I am failing miserably :lol:

you could take a picture with your phone camera of something black and use that.

OR just make something in paint on your pc and fill it with the colour black and transfer it to your phone

1) you could, but i wouldn't try it as each phone is different (unique?) :lol:

2) most of us are programmers/developers. we need the mighty USB cable

Thanks for the quick replies :lol:

1) I suspected that might be the case, with each one having a unique identifier but just hadn't seen this addressed anywhere - it struck me as a very easy way to transfer your set up to a second or third handset (in my case a couple of relatives')

2) I do a lot of work on the bus / train with my phone, reading pdfs I need for meetings etc. Find it easier to shove stuff on over ftp than using dropbox or similar

I'll try and come up with some more stupid questions to fox you... :)

Regarding the error message what would I have to do if I have to wipe it, would I have to wipe the ROM then reinstall again or is it just something else I need to wipe without needing to do anything to the ROM.

Thanks :lol:

If you recovered system apps, installing without wiping will do. If you installed the ROM without wiping and still get errors, wipe and install.

They are talking about NANDROID BACKUP - how do i make one? I tried to search in the market vor this app but ih could not find one. Or do they mean a Backup via Clockwork?

regards

Thank you!

Yes.

1. no

2. it's recommended because you would not have to do the recalibration thingy.

3. if you flashed the JJ9 with wipe there is no need to do that. If you are upgrading from JJ8, after.
