I have been using whoisit sense beta and love it. It will carry the settings over with TIBU but you will need to make sure that you have your contacts on the device and the same ringtones where they were for it to work out right.

looking for a good profile app

is there an app that can make my phone vibrate for notifications only when ringer is set on vibrate not all the time?
Just uncheck vibrate on ring... or is there something I don't understand?
and where would I do that, because I can't find it
Get the app Locale if you want what WinMo would call profiles.
For anyone looking for profiles like the Blackberry, there is an app called Quick Profiles and another one named Profiles. I haven't used either one extensively yet.
I'm using Quick Profiles (free in the Market) and I like it.
I haven't tried Profiles yet though.
I use Toggle Settings for profiles, it works pretty well .

It would be perfect if it had Switch/Toggle for APN. Please cooolcat, make one
I love Profiles, it even has the feature to backup your settings to SD card. Great for recovering after a wipe.
cannot find Toggle Setting (Donut) in market
Any help would be really appreciated, I cannot find it in the Market. I am using CM's 4.2.6 which is based on 1.6 and I see original and the cupcake version but no donut.

Contact the developer and ask them. Technically you are still on cupcake. Cyanogen only included bits and pieces from donut for 1.6. That is why you flash the 1.6 HTC recovery image before flashing cyanogen's ROM
I use profiles, works great on newest cm as well.
Only thing I would like now, is the ability as found in nokia / SE phones, to sort incomming calls based on caller groups.
Why? Because I want to be able to be called from work when sleeping, but let everybody else be silenced.

[Q] Flip it to quiet

I had thought I had seen either an app or in the program an option to flip over the phone to quiet it if it is ringing. Does anyone know where this feature is located on the options menu, or do I need to get an outside app (I have found some apps to do this, but I thought I had seen it as an option in the rom???) Any help or recommendations welcome. Thanks!
What ROM are you using?
If you are using a Sense ROM, it should do that automatically. If you're running a non-Sense ROM, this app does it for free

Not sure if it's going to work straight from the box on the blurred phone... but you can always try Cyanogenmod7 on MM2 ;-) (see development section).

In CM7 we can use this froyo app messaging?
The are a few issues with trying to use the Blur apps in non-blur roms. I used to like the Blur clock (for the dock) and tried to get it into CM7, but gave up instead and just used the default app.
For SMS, have a play with goSMS, its pretty similar to the blur one (they have a few skins which are similar, I changed my up and skinned it differently anyway)
I get a bit confused here. I just can't just instal Froyo messaging apk to have the ballon like visualisation? Just using specific apps?
Go message doesn't work to me, when message have 160+ characters when I send te people who receves get symbols like "! & %" and can't read.

[Q] Dialer for Salsa

Hi Guys,
Do you guys know any dialer app for Salsa? I feel that stock app is very pale. no skinns and customization. I tried using GoDialer but the thing is, it internally uses same dialer just changes the skin making my phone run multiple applications for same purpose and gives a hit on memory too.
Can we install something that runs on its own without HTC contacts or phone?
Another problem is, i have a call manager installed which can block certain calls or text; from certain callers and manage call log. However, when I use GoDialer, call manager doesnt work well.
Can anybody help?
i use rocketdial pro!

Can I uninstall phone and people (stock apps) from my HTC salsa and then install rocketdial?
Additionally, will it solve above mentioned problems? any clue?
rocketdial works ontop, you can freeze the dialer at your own risk like i have and it takes over as primary but using this with call manager may not give you what you want! it does have a blacklist built in..but i never use it

[MOD][APP]Stock Launcher App Sorter - Abandoned

UPDATE: Unfortunately I have had to abandon this project, please accept my apologies.
I would like to introduce a little project I'm going to be starting, my first attempt at an App for android, one which will bring added functionality to the stock launcher on rooted devices.
Having tried a lot of different launchers, I actually prefer the stock launcher, for all but one thing which is the way it sorts Apps in the app drawer. The stock launcher sorts apps by name like most other launchers, but it splits them into System Apps and Downloaded Apps, so it can be hard sometimes finding the app you want.
My App is going to provide a way of sorting the Apps how you want, without modifying the stock launcher, so that it can last between updates.
My main aim is to provide a simple interface to pick how you want the Apps sorted, primarily alphabetical, ignoring whether they are system apps or downloaded apps.
You could do this by moving apps around manually but it would take a long time, so the idea is to automate this process.
While I work on the base of the app, I would like feedback on what other ways you would like the apps to be sorted, so that when you open the app, you can pick from different options as to how to sort the apps.
I look forward to reading some of your input.

good luck. I'd add:
1. Most used
2. Last updated
3. Recently installed
4. Also if it is possible add search bar on the first page
All these options are available in GoLauncher. So if you refer to that you know what I am asking
-S
Great,
But can you even add or mod the default tasker like when we long press home key at the bottom it takes us to task manager where we have to kill all unwanted application one by one, can you add a kill all button to that it wwould be amazing if you can do that.
By the way thanks a ton.

obviously u dun have htc phone..
lg's contacts and phone is ugly. plain and simple.. join feature is ineffective.. stock icons are lame.. lockscreen is LAME and slow and buggy with faceunlock.. if u manually join contacts, u cant edit the name.. and the names can be random and wrong..
themes are jus 4.. and ugly.. weather is ugly.. its slow..
list is too long.. lg made an epic device.. *WAAYYY BETTER THAN ONE X* but ****ed up with the software..
I like the launcher but this is annoying, nobody wants to.continue this? I think it would probably be easier to just mod the launcher itself
