Loving cut the rope.. Thanks Sam.

Just now heard that one of my friend lost his wave 2 phone. Now, losing phone would freak anyone out. So I want to know that, is there any app for android which helps to retrieve lost phone?

As the phone is lost, I am not sure nething can be done in terms of apps. As of now, register the complaint with the police and call the customer care of service provider to report the lost phone and also u can ask ur friend to get a new SIM of the same number.

I haven't tried these apps. But heard about these apps which u can try to secure ur phone in future....

Seek Droid
Theft Aware
Phone Locator

I'm currently running VOID ROM on my phone! Since past few hours, the phone reboots on it's own, the phone get freezed(stuck) etc. Now, I want to either flash CM7 on to my phone or go back to the stock ROM.

But then, I've a few queries which needs to be answered :

1) While flashing VOID ROM on to my phone, I had created an ext partition of 512MB on my SD Card. Now if I choose to flash CM7 on to my phone, I would need to create an ext partition once again(?).

So, if I create a ext partition of 512 MB while flashing CM7, will one more 512MB FAT32 partition be converted into ext partition? If yes, will I be loosing the 512MB partition which I created while flashing VOID ROM? or will be having 1GB ext partition in total? Anyone?

PS: I use a 8GB card.

2) If my understanding is right, I've to download the CM7 zip file, enter into recovery mode and install the zip file from SD Card, to flash the CM7 on to my phone.

Did I get it right? If not, please explain me briefly on how to flash CM7 on to my phone?

3) I used to have the Weather Widget on my homescreen. But after flashing VOID ROM, I don't see the Weather Widget in the list. Is there any way around to get that widget back?

4) As stated earlier, I've lost the backup of the previous stock LG ROM. So, if I want to go back to stock ROM, how do I convert that 512MB ext partition into FAT32 partition?

download your phone's stock ROM .kdz file and flash it using Kdz updater.

Thanks man!

If u are using any app for SMS and also u are using QWERTY Keyboard and In Action type u clicked SMILEY for ENTER>..So thereby..Ur Enter Key is now Smiley. This will not get reflected if u use LG keyboard ( Both in abc and Qwerty) . Any keyboard app modifying Android Keyboard or u using default Android Keyboard, Smile will be displayed instead of Enter.

IF u use LG Keyboard ---

For example..In Handcent SMS>..

Handcent SMS -- > Settings --- > Action key Type--- > 2 Options will be there --- > Enter and Smile -- > If u click Enter , enter key will be displayed. If u click Smile, then Smile will be displayed and does the function of Enter Key

In Go SmS, I think this will be in

GO SMS -- Settings -- Send Settings -- Action Key Type

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Well, I will try those apps. I'm using default Android Keyboard and Default Messaging App.

 

[tmanikandan]

I think there is no enter key in Android Keyboard.. If u reach the corner of the editor box and press L , I think it will move to the next line and it is the enter for Android Keyboard. If u don't press L, it will move on sideways...

 

[coderunknown]

no enter key in my mobile too but as i never used Android/Gingerbread keyboard, didn't noticed till date. but it was there when i was on Android 2.2/Void.

 

[tmanikandan]

LG Keyboard does have enter key.

U can try Handcent Sms / Go Sms with LG Keyboard as there are lot of options and also, the app is free. U can also download apk file of Go SMS from their website in case if u don't have a Internet in mobile

How you guys are getting LG Keyboard on Mik's CM7?? :O

The problem is with default Messaging app. Shift to Go SMS Pro and you will have Enter key on any keyboard you use...

Just use Swype... Super Efficient typing...

Then there is also Smart Keyboard Pro... I use HTC-style keys on it with increased size. It reduces miss-types a lot...

I think irrespective of any sms app is used, default Android Keyboard doesn't have enter key. The sms app should be used with LG Keyboard or any other keyboard app to have a enter key

@krishnandu, here the LG keyboard: LG keyboard

but as i am using some ancient GB rom by Andy (CM7 modded). so have LG keyboard by default.

Thanks Sam. I was also looking for the same link to post from XDA

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Thanks Sam

As shifting from stock SMS App wont help much, as Enter key is missing in browser too

 

[tmanikandan]

Use SMS App + LG Keyboard / Keyboard App

 

[coderunknown]

Thanks Sam. I was also looking for the same link to post from XDA

Mik's FAQ have the link to the keyboard. better than stock keyboard (for me)

maybe some kids stole the enter key

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Thanks for the info...!! I didn't noticed.

Flashed v19.4

As usual, another awesome Kernel by franco

 

[coderunknown]

welcome krishna

btw, anyone tried fserve's kernel. battery drain is really high & CPU setting is disabled in the CM setting. whereas it was suppose to be lower.
