I'm pretty sure that unfortunately is not possible
You could always install a theme that looks like iOs but there aren't any good themes that actually look like iOs

go launcher ex with classic theme looks similar to iOS app drawer wise with placing apps onto one another to create a folder. The MIUI rom also has a lot of the same look as iOS but it hasnt been fully ported over to galaxy s yet

Almost impossible, iOS is closed source. This question has been asked so many times, search before posting!

There would be a lot of trouble with drivers, gsm and just everything, so it's almost impossible to port. Why don't you buy iPhone then if you want iOS?

Cause i dnt affort a iPhone.... As per a post in site Its possible... So plzzz try to help me...

You have three options really:
-MIUI, and maybe then find an iPhone theme if there is one
-This rom, although its Gingerbread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964099
-There's a developer on Play Store who released almost exact replicates of iOS apps. You can find them by searching things like Hi Music, Hi Videos, etc etc
And I mean almost EXACT replicates of iOS.
So you coud get any rom you want and just download those apps to use

You have visual options like iOS, but never the iOS

Hey.... Wat do u mean by MIUI????

You could port it your self but it would be a pain in the a** but the iPhone 4 has the same CPU/GPU and ram but you would need the boot loader need a modified kernel to set proper screen size and other hardware features and since its closed source it would be better to buy a piece of sh*t iPhone and use it

I'm just wondered, why someone wants to change Android to iOS?
Especially on our great phone, which can handle latest Android 4.3 without lags?
Last years I only see how Apple trying to catch up Google, copying features like panorama or extended notifications...

Is it possible to upgrade xperia mini to android 4.3 official???

[MOD] ADBlock (advertisement)

Hi guys,
this is my first post in Nexus S section. Wildfire is my previous device.
This is an ADblock file that will block almost all annoying advertisement (except those app made by Chinese from China [it do block, but not all]) in your app and browser as well.
Advantages
Free at all, does not use system service, update is not required.
Attachments
HOST.zip: Updated on June 2011
HOST1.zip: Updated on June 2010 (try this one if the first one doesn't block some of your app ads.)
Instruction:
1. Unzip the file and you will get a file named HOSTS.
2. Copy and paste the HOSTS via root explorer to system/etc.
3. Reboot system, and open an app with advertisement and you will see the advertisement is blocked.
Thanks for viewing.
Please hit a "Thanks" if you like it!

Would this work on sgs miui as well?

This script blocked ads from 21k site. It is like windows, they built in the feature but lack of ad block file.
I checked root tools from market, it doesn't block much of the site. It is paid app..
Adfree use service, this doesnt. If you use task killer, it wont kill.

Just tried, superb!!! I use the HOST1.zip. 1st time saw Malaysian developer, Malaysia Boleh!!!

Oh and to answer your question ... i didn't bother to update my flashable hosts file for the new recovery... cause tbh i don't really care about ads anymore xD (also including laziness)
Oh and i don't think the boot.img has anything to do with the camera recording (not that i know of course)

No one here uses adblock we all use "adfree" which is free and does EVERYTHING.
Personally, I have recently decided to keep the ads. They are the sole reason we have some quality games especially free ones. Its not like we are in abundance with android app developers, if simply having a small ad will keep them going, please support them.

why the hell would he do that? factory reset would be an absolute last resort.... and i have no idea why the hell you think installing apex would help him?
OP do you have google now enabled?
first thing i would do is disable data and disconnect wifi - make sure it is an app trying to fetch data that is causing the problem, if that turns out to be the case then simply stop all apps from syncing automatically and reenable a few at a time until you capture the problem one.
check out whether your GPS is being used too - google now would use your location and fetch data a lot, my money is on it.

fair enough... but you can be 99.99% sure that it is something you have installed that is causing it.

Firefox Browser

Hey Galaxy Ace I Users,
I only want to share some good news - Firefox has released their browser officially for our phone. You are able to get Firefox at the Play Store if you like to.

Edit your topic to "Firefox Browser". Such headers give us false hopes. And there was no need to say that by creating a new thread. You could have Shared it in the off topic thread. Anyway, Goodnews
If this thing will boot , I'll root.

In CM 7 dont work

That's a bit far fetched.
And Firefox always stood for Firefox Browser, just because Firefox OS got released a while ago doesn't mean the Browser should be explicitly specified as such.
I mean, am I supposed to say "Normal squared glass windows" every time I talk about my apartment's windows just so people don't think I'm talking about MS Windows? Use common sense.

It's not a lightweight browser, just because it doesn't fit your needs doesn't mean Mozilla is crazy.
Also, Chrome is around 20-25 MB as well, FYI.

I tried the browser but it was too laggy on our phone so I deleted.
And the newest opera browser is 20mb too.

20.95MB (APK) + 2.24MB (Dex) + ~0.3MB (Lib).
There was an issue (?) in the FF nightlies where the data size would climb to ~20MB, not sure if it's still the case. Currently it's about 3MB on my phone.

[Q] Google Maps Traffic Widget Updating

Has this happened to anyone else? I used the Google Maps Traffic Widget once but then deleted it from the screen. Now the updater for the traffic widget always seems to start itself. I force stop it and it always comes back after some time. I also try to force stop and clear the cache of Google Maps and also hibernating maps by Greenify that will stop it for a while but again it always comes back after some random amount of time. It is eating up my battery. Anyone know if there is some way to permanently stop this thing from "updating"?
