another longstanding problem that google has - seems like they don't bother fixing the Gmail app - such that the images displayed are auto-scaled and appears within the confines of our 5.3" screens.
any workarounds for this? would prefer not to use a 3rd party app if possible. mods would be awesome!
Nothing yet bigger images remain that way even in the browser on a PC..

I have had a few android devices and has long had a question thats been nagging at me. And that is; Is it just impossible to get to have different sounds for different notifications?.
Ie one sound for texts, another for MMS's and a third for email etc etc?. All the Android devices I have owned has only had one sound for notifications with no possible way to distingish between the differnt notifications and I find that is rather lacking.
So is it simply "not possible" or is it just a matter of having the proper app or?. I at least hope someone can shed some light over this cause I find it a bit annoying at any length...
Big issue for me too

In gmail for example u can set a different tone also possible in twitter (original) whatsapp etc.
Most apps have a option for it and that works fine for my android devices

I did some searching on this issue but the only thread I found was from 2010 and we've come a ways since then. My issue is, randomly when I try and access my gallery I will get a black screen while my buttons remain lit. I have to hit the home button in order to do anything and then need to kill the gallery from running in order to get back into it. Has anyone else seen this or know how to fix it?
I'm runniny Serendipity VII build 2 kernel 4.

I haven't had this issues, but here are a couple of things I can think of:
1. Did you try installing a different gallery over it? (Using SGS tools)
2. How many pictures do you have? I could see a lot of folders/pics tripping it up.
3. Have you tried clearing the data from the app? (Through settings)

I haven't installed another gallery because I like the default one and haven't had any problems with it until recently. I've got a few hundred pictures but about 7gigs of anime that I can't keep from showing up each time. I checked the application settings but there isn't anything you can clear.

Try this: look around in your filesystem for a file called .nomedia, and put a copy of that in the folder/folders you have your anime images in. They won't show up in gallery, but you'll still be able to get to them.
As you guys know(or should by now) I've ported MIUI to the Bionic. I need your help for a list of apps you would like to see in it. FREE APPS. Just Throw Some At Me And If I See Multiples, I'll Throw Them In It.
.....nothing?
Generally I think you should avoid adding apps...but the USB and wifi tether apps listed in my noob guide would be a good addition.

Absolutely nothing. I hate installing ROMs that need bloat removed. I generally skip them.

I not installing bloat. That why I'm asking what are you guys looking for.
I would add the Google source tethering app and that's about it. Also in your rom you have to have wifi to download anything from the browser or market. The toggle in the downloads app doesn't work. But great job on the rom!
Sent from my XT875 using xda premium
that's in the settings don't remember where but i gives you a pop in the market gives you the option to que or continue and on that dialog it gives you directions on where in setting to go to disable it.. had that same issue too..
I've looked all over the settings and I can't find it :O if you find it please let me know. I love miui!

No preinstalled apps please. We know how to operate our devices and install apps at our own discretion.

to late..and you guys are thinking apps like games and stuff...I'm thinking apps like
RomToolbox
DSPManager
PhoneInfo(as its pre-beta)
WifiTether
stuff like that ya know.....tools you'll need on a pre-beta Rom
MIUI apps
Flash Video Browser- watch Hulu, Youtube, College Humor, CBS as a desktop browser, no more blocked cause your on a mobile browser.
Webkey- cell sitting on charger in bedroom, have access and control of it from your browser.
AirDroid- cleaner than Webkey, less options but BADazz either way.
Webtop Connector- taken from Atrix I believe, lets you run webtop without buying hardware, just plug in HDMI cable. Can't wait it Webuntu is ready.
Android-wifi-tether- cause Barnacle wouldn't work and 4G is too fast not to tether.
NZB Leech- my ISP limits my bandwidth, so this help to expand it. Use Opera or Firefox and I like binsearch.info for downloading NZB files. No PAR checker, but I justs transfer to PC if I need to rebuild.
Clover- cause free $5 and easy to get pay and pay people. MOD EDIT: Link removed - no referral links allowed
LCD Density and LCD Resolution- I like that one shows you the resolution your about to set, other gives you more control. Set to 180dpi and webtop mirror will give you 1280x720 on your HDTV.
Swiftp- sharing is caring. Easiest FTP server I've used, and works great.
ES File Explorer
Opera Mobile
Firefox
Google+
Amazon App Store
Battery Monitor Widget
AdAway
1Weather
Android Assistant
Adobe Reader
Barcode Scanner
Box.net
CameraMX
Currents
DiskUsage
Docs
Dropbox
FBReader
FireFox
Flash
Handcent SMS
MoboPlayer or MX Video Player
Navigation
Sound Recorder
SuperUser
Talk
Titanium
Voice
Youtube
I know this is overboard, but these are apps I like to install and use.
If you have an app that you consider better than the ones listed, please let us know what you like about it versus this list.
ES File Explorer vs Astro File Manager = ES has a built-in scanner to find network shared folders. Also client for Dropbox and Box.net, so easier to copy/paste into you cloud storage. Box.net offering 50GB free.
Maybe we can do a Games thread later on.

I was using the times magazine app in webos and the display was perfect, but in cm9 the display is distorted and the lettering is too wide and short. I tried changing the dpi settings but it didn't seem to change anything. Anyone know of a solution? Is this a problem because it's incompatible with ics? There are several other apps that are also distorted (like msnbc) but those are not meant for tablets. Any help would be appreciated!

You don't happen to have the latest time magazine apk do you? Can't get it to install from google play as I'm outside the US.
there was a thread about all Time magz apps in rootzwiki with a hacked version to fix the screen ratio issues
The title might be a little misleading, but links are not opening in Chrome custom tabs, but the full browser instead. I have tried on CM and on stock. Meanwhile, just about everything opens in the Chrome tabs on my wife's phone (Galaxy S5), and this includes the news feed in the Google Now app. At first, it would open them intermittently, and now, it completely stopped opening custom tabs.
Did any of you get it to work consistently?

Chrome app provide the necessary stuff to apps to make them open their link into custom tabs
As an exemple the Google search remove this feature from time to time (don't know why in the last update the features is in it)
But It is an option in Google+ app check if it is ticked
In Google news and weather app it is force enabled now
So it's really depending on app i guess our nexus receive more update or maybe you're in the beta build of Google now?
Well...after no, and I mean, NO app updates, Chrome custom tabs are working on my phone from both the search results and the Now cards. Whatever...
And I wasn't referring to custom tabs from apps...I was referring to custom tabs from Google Now itself. Still doesn't make sense to me, but whatever.
Edit: But using the custom tabs for Google searches...it works a lot faster than opening the full app. The loading speeds are awesome!

I don't understand if you want them enable or disable
Anyway go to parameters -> account (the first one) look at the pic now the arrowed one is the switch for this
I wanted them enabled. I checked those settings, and it was enabled. I toggled it off and back on, and they started to work after a few minutes.
Thanks, though. Fixed the problem since my last post.

Here's another way for you to use custom chrome tabs. Just download this app from Google Play : Chromer
It's not a browser app but it forces links to be opened on custom chrome tabs. I'm using it and it works perfectly.
