Hi,
Try Gesture Search from google, with a gesture you can search in whole phone...
Bye
Idk

Go to Settings > Search > Searchable items. Check all that applies. Then just press the Search touch button.

yeah my google search box doesnt pick up contacts either, even though they are selected as searchable items i have to tap the g icon and select people for it to search my contatcs, rather annoying to tell the truth

Am I suggesting something blazingly obvious when I say "press the search button on the front of the phone"?
When I press that and then start typing it looks through everything. Contacts, social networks, tweets, emails, apps, settings, calendar, recent searches etc
Works fine for me, and means you don't need a widget for it either!

um, yeah, i always use the search capacitive button to invoke search its just that for some reason it doesnt search contacts even though people is sleceted under searchable items, i have to manually change it to search people only. it could be something to do with the fact that i am using adw launcher instead of sense.

The search "button" on my phone searches contacts, just tested it now.

Yeah, deffo sounds like a ROM thing as I just asked a friend at work with a DHD to check and he can search his contacts too. His is 100% stock.
I do recommend Android Revolution ROM if you get bored waiting for a decent CM7 build

cheers, i'm going to have a look at android revolution now

Cool
I highly recommend Android Revolution HD 2.0.6 non-OC version.
There's currently a few problems with the OC kernal version (YouTube and video playback is broken for some) but the non-OC version is blazing fast anyway and I'm sure it wont be long before Mike (the ROMs dev) fixes those small issues.

awesome, i'm going to give it a try when i get back from work, did you flash the new radio that he recommends?
also how necessary did you find a full wipe with this coming from stock?

Yeah, I flashed the latest radio last week when still on AR 2.0.3 and it's seems like a good one.
I did a full wipe with the tool provided in the thread when going from stock to AR 2.0.3. I learned from my time with my old HTC Hero that it's usually always best to wipe unless updating the same ROM from one version to another, even then sometimes a wipe is still needed. It usually states in the change log of each ROM though, but in your case I'd definitely do it.
It's an effort if you have loads of apps and want to keep various settings etc, but this is when Titanium Back-Up and Google contacts sync saves the day

Im using the energyrom on my htc touch pro, and sofar its brilliant! Its the fastest rom ive ever used with all the goodies. So i will definitely try this! Just a quick question: is it possible to still use the x-panels function? So create a tab with the HTC menu and one with the wm6.5 menu?
WOW!!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! No doubt about this. Will flash now
downloading................
thanks
Flashing now....
@gelo - bro dito ka pala tambay hehehe..
I flashed and working great :d many many thanks mate for your great effort.
One thing u added a game which is only for g sensor. So xperia lacks . So game is useless for xperia.
still now the rom is fast and stable. So checking it and let you know if i found some bugs.
Thanks
Found some minor bugs:
*In the contact list (when pressing 'all people' in the htc menu), i can use the x1's joystick to scroll around, but i cant open a contact without using the touch screen. So pressing down on the joystick doenst open a contact.
*And second, when opening the 'me' contact, i can edit it just fine with the onscreen keyboard. But when i slide the x1's keyboard open, it closes the contact and goed back to the contact list. When i have the keyboard open and i open the contact, theres no problem.
* Theres something wrong with the keyboard layout, when typing a tekst, i cant figure out how to use the numbers on the keyboard. When using the blue function key + '?' i should get '#', but instead i get '3'. This is the case with every number, so can only use the onscreen keyboard.
* When typing a tekst, and pressing the 'sym' key, it returns to the inbox (message is saved as draft)
Just thoughd id let you know

Have this bug, too.
However, I have to come round to *da_mayhems opinion, it is a real impressive rom. Will try the "plain" version as soon as it is uploaded as well.
Thanks for that great work, *NRGZ28!

Creating themes/bootscreens?

Hi clever people!
Ok so it's taken me a few days to really figure this thing out and decide to root my T-Mobile UK G2 Touch (Hero or whatever) and after doing it, I installed villain4beta2 which at first I liked. however I've had it a day now at work (it get used alot at work) and its just not right.... things seem nicer and perhaps a touch faster but with silly errors. for example even when I'd disabled open home and put sense back on it kept coming up with force kill open home *sigh*
anyways i think I'm going back to a rooted stock rom because i dnt really want much from my phone i only rooted it to create "full" themes for it, apart from maybe apps2sd perhaps. This brings me on to the point...
So, I want to theme it, I know this can be done via open home ahome and other desktop replacement apps but they all seem to slow my phone done compared to sense - plus i like sense, and even when i use them I cannot a)edit the notification bar
b)change the bootscreen
so I want to know if the following few things are possible and point me in the right direction...
-create MY OWN bootscreen (not one off another phone)
-change location/fonts/colours on notification bar
-change the colours/font of the sense buttons (phone add apps)
this lot is probably way more complicated than i imagine, however I have made F0 (firmware - flashed) themes for the PSP, so i think i can handle this, its just i know very little about android atm. So please take pitty on me and point me in the correct direct of what ever is possible...
mattyyey
c'mon guys! can you at least tell me how to make a bootscreen - what files are involved etc?
(FYI i have a rooted stock ROM now - 2.73.110.26)
have a look at /system/media, in 1.5 roms you will find a folder called "bootscreen", in 2.1 roms there is either a folder or a zipfile. have a look at these, then ask your specific questions here after you did a search.
I would also like to know how to make/create/customize themes.
bootscreens are easy enough, what tools and files are involved in the theme and where can we locate them?
Do we need to get the sign tools etc from the dev of the ROM were creating it for?
Thanks in advance
edit the pngs inside the apks. do not unpack them, just update the files inside them. do not resign them with anything. and there is no rom developer key, there are the testkeys from htc.
Cheers kendong, your a gent.
I thought there would of been more to it than that, best fire up photoshop and alike

Wow I so forgot about this thread! Thanks kendong2 I have a lot of it figured out now editing apks and making bootscreens... and getting the final customization via sweeter home. LCARSoid is basically finished apart from a few widgets.
I have yet to figure out how rearranging the notifications bar is done or fonts. I know fonts can be done tho.
Anyways thanks, I managed to piece it together in the end. :-D

[Q] New Voice Search with Commands question

Sorry, I know that there are explanations on other device forums, but I can not for the life of me make this work and its driving me mad.
Someone please tell me if I have to have data plan to do this and it will save everyone a lot of time.
I use titanium to remove the google search/voice search/voice dialer
reboot
install new google search/voice search from here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=753097 (which is the only place I could find the apks.) and it should work as everyone has said... but every time it gives me connection error. Does it really need internet access to send a text message??? Generally it wont even let me finish talking before it says it.
Am I screwed by not having a data plan, or is there a way around this?
I am using vogue with incubus's 2.2 super froyo rls 12.
Thanks for your time.
I dont know the new voice commands.
But usually it uploads your recorded voice, than the google servers will try to find out what you said and than give you back the text or now the text and the actions the phone has to do.
So you need data for voice commands but not for sending a sms or something.
Correct me if im wrong.

Unfortunately, it DOES require a data connection...
But for anybody who has data, here's how I got it working...
No need to uninstall/remove anything
- Install/Update "Voice Search" from the Market. I couldn't get Google Search to install.
- Open Voice Search.
- When the window appears with the things you can say it doesn't show the whole window. I think there's 2 buttons at the bottom that you can't see. How I got past this was to press Down 4 time, Left once. This will select the "ok" or whatever button, and you won't have to do it anymore.
EDIT: Here's the pic I posted in the other thread to help anybody else.

THANK YOU. You just made my weekend. I couldn't figure out how to get past this
Another way around the startup dialog is to start it in landscape mode. The dialog fits in landscape mode. But I'll try to fix the portrait dialog with some apktool magic anyway.

[APP] 3D Launcher Port v.1.0 [CLOSED]

THIS WAS A REVERSE ENGINEERED Launcher from another tablet.... I have not seen any new versions uploaded so unfortunately I can not fix any of the problems.... I am asking the MODS to CLOSE this THREAD... it is causing too many issues.
CHECK OUT MY VTL.LAUNCHER .... ACTIVELY DEVELOPED FROM SOURCE CODE!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12710589
############################################################################
Here is a port of a 3D Launcher from another Tegra Tablet. It has been ported and formatted to work on our G-Tablets. Unfortunately there isn't much I can do with the icons on the launcher bar. I have set them to launch either stock apps or the included 3D apps depending on what was available. You can't change the apps that are launched by the launcher bar either. The First TIME you launch it it will take a minute to Load as it creates it's own cache files.
3D Launcher Port v.1.0:

or I can walk you through a manual uninstall or fix the uninstaller.... nothing gets *modified* to system... just added so it is pretty easy to remove.
Installed over stock TNT... will play with and inform back...
Everything seems to work great over stock TNT except for the music player, it FC everytime I click it. May be linked to a wrong location, not sure...
Clicking on programs brings you to a "3d" list of all your programs, of course, but pretty cool...
Easy to change RSS feeds and weather locations...
Not sure if you can add you own widgets to the carousel. Will continue to play.

Works great and runs smooth. Just wish it had more 3d Widgets for it. Great work on the port. Also for those looking to uninstall it. You can do so through TIBU.
This launcher is sweet!!!! Thanks to whom ever ported this!

Thanks Gojimi very nice launcher.
Quick question though.. Is it possible to have multiple home screens thru this launcher? And if we can get any widegts on there like for tapatalk pulse facebook etc.
Thanks once again.
pretty cool! not sure i can use it full time, but its cool looking. if it were customizable wed be in business!
Installed this last night on TNT Lite 3.1.4. Works, but weather is not working to access my towns weather, music player does FC every-time, and It says Vegan Tab in the background, hopefully that can change, if only i knew how to program! It works, but not sure if the lack of customizations, and small issues are worth it! But i will say this, this launcher makes this tablet look more and more like a tablet and not an oversized phone!
Thanks

the launcher is a series of apk files so i think you need to stick with the provided update.zip format.
any news on any updates to this launcher, as stated before, i am having trouble with the weather portion. When i select my city, it gives me a satellite picture (like wifi problem), and the news portion will not allow me to delete bbc news.....is this maybe due to the fact that it was designed to work with Vegan?
I'm getting an error message about com.brogent.service has stopped since installing 3D launcher. Tried to clear data but that did not help.
anybody tried this with Archos 70 internat tablet ?

Hi,
My first android device was a nook color and purchased on day one. This was the forum that got me all started to develop on the android platform. Since then I have worked on a location base app that make full use of Google map to find locations nearby. It has been fully tested with the Nook color using CynogenMod 7. It probably works with other flavors but I haven't test it yet. Please comment if it works/doesn't work in other Nook color Mods.
BTW it is FREE of course.
Here is the link to the app posting:

If you've posted it early last week, I would have tried it already. Now, I'm back.
Anyway, thanks for app, keep it going. I'll give it a try later.
Hi Votinh,
please do give it a try and any input you might have will be appreciated.
Thanks,
F8
I tried to use it over the thanks giving weekend driving between LA and San Diego. Saved some time to look for diapers in a nearby Target store
BTW though your description says "* Featuring "Peek ahead" at other destinations." I could not find it. I could pan the map, but did not see any stores beyond certain point. Is it limited by distance? Say
it would be nice if I can look ahead for destinations e.g. I'm in between San Diego and Carlsbad on I5 and I want to find stores in Carlsbad, well specifically Dunkin Donuts. Having directions to that place from my location would be nice too.
dumble_bee,
If you know where you are heading, you can pan the map to the location, touch the map and hold(2 seconds). It will center where you touched and will display what is near by based on the new location. You can also increase the viewing radius setting in preference to see further out, but you probably already know that.
Hope this helps.
F8
OK, I tried that, but then how do I go back? After a while it goes back to the old place. I have to then "touch and hold" again and again. Bit annoying.
This has potential, but why no support for landscape? I'd love to see that!

dumble bee,
When you pan the map or center on a different location, it will recenter after 60 seconds when you no longer interact with it. But if you like to go back to your former location, you can just Tap Tap(tap the screen two time quickly), it should put you back right away.
Hope this help,
F8
Thanks Mate! I understand. Just have to finger the thing from keep moving.
A food for thought, maybe something you can provide as a feature and name it after me
it'd be nice to remember my choices of press-&-hold, bring those up and let me select one, I usually move and look ahead at limited area's, mostly starbucks at a location that I'll be meeting my clients.
