Hello,
I have an issue with Asus Task Manager.
When I aad it to desktop I just get a pop-up window saying application has stopped. The Widget just prints the number of tasks running but no task list at all and One Clic Cleaning button doesn't work.
I tried a factory reset but it didn't solve the issue.
Anyone else having the same issue ?
Any idea to get it solved ?
Thank you for the attention you'll pay to my request.
That's a known issue, I haven't seen any solution to this yet.
am i really the only person with a working widget? i can add it to the desktop without a problem. it lists all the apps that are running, i can close each one individually and the one-click clean button also works just fine.
Mine works just fine

+1 Widget is working properly for me.
Just added mine to the desktop. It's running fine. Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall the widget?
Mine works... off and on.
Sometimes clicking the little X works to kill an app, sometimes not. Sometimes it will kill the app like 1 minute later. Just hit or miss.
mine does not....tried clearing data etc, no luck
Thank you all for your feedback.
Guess we can just wait for an update or somebody extracting the apk in order to reinstall it.
So, those of us who have a non-working Asus task manager, are we all having a german model?
Well... I bought mine in France.

i have a german model and its not working.
speculation: maybe one of the reasons they delayed the german ICS update for some devices....
Bump, I'm from the US and mine just started doing this..
Not only is my Task Manager widget mostly non-functional, but I've discovered it also seems to cause system-wide problems. Here's what I notice when I have mine running:
1. When I switch to the screen that the widget is on, the LCD dims. When I switch to any other screen, it returns to its standard brightness.
2. My Launcher kept crashing (popping up withe "Wait" or "Close" dialog), and I finally narrowed it down to whenever I switch to the screen containing the Task Manager widget.
I've removed the widget and rebooted, and neither of these problems seems to be occurring. I was having this for awhile, and so I can't say what build it started with. Probably .13, but I'm not 100% sure.
I found this thread by searching for Asus task manager has stopped responding, which I have seen several times today. Mine is a US model. If I don't a solution soon it's going bye bye.
I also have Rom Toolbox installed which has a task manager I think. I wonder if two running at once could be the problem. I don't know if the Toolbox one runs in the background or not. I like the Asus one. If it will work....

Scott (scrosler) gave me permission to branch off development of his M2D Round 4 Reloaded ROM, since he'd officially abandoned his Titan development. He's having too much fun with his new Touch Pro ROM cooking.
STABLE BRANCH 1.3.4 [02/20/2009]
These first releases of what I'm calling Titan Reloaded is pretty similar to his loaded ROM and just includes some minor updates and tweaks, which are detailed on the download page here:

Titan Reloaded 1.3.4 is out and contains tons of changes, check them out!

FAQ
Q: When I switch to lanscape mode, or open the keyboard, why doesn't M2D switch to landscape?
A: Lanscape mode isn't supported in M2D, and I can't add it, since I didn't write it and don't have the source.
Q: Why doesn't the flash on the camera work?
A: The version 5 camera is installed by default as it seems to take better pictures, and it doesn't support flash. If you want the flash back, download the kitchen instead of the standard ROM and customize your ROM before flashing it with the version 4 camera. I challenge you to show me a picture that came out better with the puny "flash" on this camera, though.
Q: Why doesn't the "ok" hardware button open the start menu?
A: I haven't figured that out myself. It seems that M2D takes control of that hardware button and I can't fix it. Try using the start menu hardware button instead.
Q: I'm having a problem with the stable branch, how do I get help?
A: There are no known issues. First try doing a hard reset after flashing (hold both softkeys, the hardware buttons with dots on them in while pressing in the reset button with your stylus. Then press the hardware R and space keys when prompted.) Then try to reproduce your problem without installing any custom software in the kitchen or after flashing. If you can reproduce it, please provide the steps to reproduce in the forum and ask for assistance.

BETA BRANCH 1.4b2 [02/20/2009]
Also check out the 1.4 beta 2 which upgrades 2DManila (including footprints), HTC Album, and HTC Audio Manager from a new HTC release. Also included the previously missing Audio Booster. Upgraded Youtube with working finger scroll. Now using default theme, which can still be changed from M2DC. Also installed the Volume Control. The carrier cabs have been upgraded and are now installed under My Documents by default. No more app bundle installed. I haven't tested those apps with the new Manila. I also upgraded the sys files to new OS version.
Because it may not be obvious, to non-software developers. The beta ROM probably has bugs. I need feedback to fix them. Please don't run it if you don't find it fun beta testing. If you want stable, please go with 1.3.4 for now.
http://www.pdamag.com/downloads/TitanReloaded_1.4b2.rar
There are a lot of known issues with the beta at this time:
1. In call volume adjustment doesn't work (some report this works though?)
2. Custom cities in weather tab may not work?
3. If your phone gets stuck on vibrate, go into Start->Settings->Phone-> and Change to Ring.
Update 09/04/2012 - Kitchen is available for beta.
Thanks!
cant wait for the kitchen since i need SIP change and Data backup in my phone at all times. thanks for keeping this going for us xv6800 users
bitserve: thanks for keeping the Titan ROMs alive.
bitserve, thanks for your work. it's good to see what started (which is freaking awesome, by the way!!), will continue. happy holidays to you all.
What are the two issues and quickfixes?
From bitserve's site:
TitanReloaded 1.0 Known Issues [12/16/2008]
* Location tab search doesn’t open GoogleMaps. A quick fix is to copy \Program Files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe to \Windows
* Internet tab doesn’t open Internet Explorer. A quick fix is to set [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\InternetWidget]

Looks good. I'm looking forward to flashing this when I get home.
I just flashed it on my Mogul(useless Qwest phone) and I liked it, so I flashed it on my XV6800 and it's awesome. Keep up the good work.
Flashed it and it's working wonderfully.
Hey Bitserve,
When i get some time, i'll flash your rom

Im not giving up my TP for anything ;c)
I just started looking again at the different ROM's out there since I had a few days to try and update things again on my phone.
I flashed this yesterday and have noticed a few things. I will list some of them.
The interface is very nice. The app shortcuts are easily added to the application page. Colors are customizable and are easily seen.
My phone seems to react very slowly to the bluetooth and the music app would not even open. Not sure why? There needs to be a regedit app installed. The quick access menu that I've been used to is gone, would be nice to see the Contacts and some of the others that are in the "start" menu that are used frequently still show up there. The used applications are cleared when the phone is shut off and restarted, so when you try to get to a previously used app, you need to go back through the menu selections to find it again. A GPS app would be nice as well. I couldn't get the Google Maps to find any satellites though. I know the phone with Verizon can be a little finicky for GPS at times. Although I did have it working a while back with a different install and was great.
The camera and photo viewer are SWEET. They work very well. I may have to try a different build and see how that works for the time being, but will be back when there are a few other mod's to this one. It looks very promising.
Also, my kids grabbed my phone and were disappointed that there weren't any games other than the default MS ones.
A couple more things I noticed, are that the battery indicator did have colors to it (very nice), although the number of bars didn't change and I ran it to nothing thinking I was also getting incredible battery life. Theclock seemed to lock up and not update.
I recently changed from a Hermes to the 6800 and have been looking for the perfect ROM (for me). I have to tell you I found it. This is the first ROM I have tried that everything works and is set up for my needs. Thank you & looking forward to your next update.
This is sweet..I have some questions
How do I get the OK button (side) working on the home page? Basically to open the start menu like in the OEM roms?
Also I have the callhistory.exe file how to I get the Voice button to open it?
Another thing is how to I make the scroll bar on the side wider?

OK to add to this, I installed the ROM pack and now mthe phone works funny.
The dialer display cuts off some numbers and the right hand scroll bar in the folders acts funny. also the Screen align does not work.
(I installed everything in the rom pack) Maybe I should of done one at a time.
What you guys think?

Do you mean that your bluetooth was slower than with the stock ROM? The Audio Manager works fine for me from both the tab and from start->programs. What changes have you made, or third party apps have you installed?
There needs to be a regedit app installed.

Well, I'm not sure it needs to be in the ROM. However, as I get further away from scott's original ROM, I'll be installing some freeware apps that I use regularly that I consider must haves. One will have a registry editor.
The quick access menu that I've been used to is gone, would be nice to see the Contacts and some of the others that are in the "start" menu that are used frequently still show up there. The used applications are cleared when the phone is shut off and restarted, so when you try to get to a previously used app, you need to go back through the menu selections to find it again.

I doubt that I'll ever add quick menu to this ROM, but I'll start offering a kitchen soon. I actually like the startclean app. I don't turn my phone off very often. When I do, it's because I want to clear everything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=251164
You can remove start clean from Windows\Start Up. You'll also be able to disable this in the kitchen.
A GPS app would be nice as well. I couldn't get the Google Maps to find any satellites though.

GoogleMaps is installed. I don't know of any other free ones that work better. Although maybe I'm unclear on what you mean GPS app? Make sure that you have GPS on under services under phone-> options. I usually am able to get a sattelite fine. What radio are you using?

I tested this by letting my battery running all the way down, before I released the ROM. I didn't have any problems. Also no problems with the clock. What changes have you made, or third party apps have you installed?

I just had to test and was surprised to find that worked from the today screen. My phone has a start button, which I always used for this. It looks like TouchFlo takes control of the OK button. Sorry. I'd recommend using the start button on your phone, if you have one. I'll fix it if I can.
Also I have the callhistory.exe file how to I get the Voice button to open it?

This worked on the stock ROM? From the today screen, this seems to open the voice memo recorder for me. You might try a hardware button configuration program.
Another thing is how to I make the scroll bar on the side wider?

I believe that scott made the scroll bar narrower, because this ROM was mostly supposed to be navigatable by finger. I would recommend using the scroll wheel or the dpad when possible. I actually prefer to have more screen than more scroll bar. However, here are the registry tweaks:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE]
"cyHScr"=dword:13
"cxVScr"=dword:13
"cyVScr"=dword:13
"cxHScr"=dword:13
You'll be able to disable the narrow scroll bar in the kitchen. You can also install a 12 pixel scroll bar from the included ROM pack, under Apps.

Well, in my version, the Task Manager is already installed in the ROM. I wouldn't recommend installing the cab for it. Truthfully, the only other cab that I've tested is the Opal Style Comm Manager, which works fine. I don't care for the other apps.
You should definitely install them one at a time. I'm not sure how to even install multiple cabs at one time. You likely only want to install one carrier cab, also. My screen align works fine.
Great work. Looking forward eagerly to the next release, and the kitchen.
I have a problem. When I set up my gmail on my phone it won't receive messages. It always worked on DCD and I don't understand why it would just up and quit working. I haven't tried any other emails though because they changed the system at work from groupwise to exchange and I don't know the new servers since I am on break til the 5th. Has anyone been able to set up email on their phones? I feel so disconnected.
When is the next update going to be released? It is after the holidays.
Happy New Year!
I'm getting the same issue as Elizle. Pocket Outlook is having trouble connecting with the incoming mail server. Connecting to Gmail IMAP using FlexMail seems to work, but I'm not accustomed to its interface. I miss the integration with M2D.

It's weird that you're both having problems with gmail. I guess I'll have to get a gmail account and see if I can figure out the problem. If anything, I would expect this ROM to work better, as I included "Windows Mobile 6.1 Hotfix for Sending POP and IMAP E-mail (KB958639)". I'll let you know what I find. Thanks for the feedback.
Since I updated to .21 it seems that the ASUS Task Manager Widget isn't working properly anymore.
- It doesn't refresh automatically
- Closing apps by clicking the x doesn't work
- Closing all apps by clicking 'One-click clean' doesn't work.
Note: the above doesn't happen all the time, as if the widgets stops working after some time.
When I delete the widget and replace it on the home screen it seems to work for a while.
Does anyone else experience this problem? Any solution?

Yeah, It has always been kind of a POS.
The battery widget shows the charger when docked -_-
Yup, it's been that way since I discovered that widget and that was way before the latest update. I don't use it that often but sometimes when I do it doesn't do anything.
Can anyone recommend a good replacement?
I had problems with the Asus Task Manager, so I stopped using it. After I installed a custom ROM, I was playing around with widgets and checked it out again and it worked. Don't know exactly why it started working again, but I'll use it until it doesn't again.

Guys, Can I pls get your help for the below issues I have with my Sony Tablet S
I cant seem to "close"recently used apps', even after completely shutting down & disconnecting power. Its like I want to "delete browsing history" on a PC
I cant seem to log-out of Gmail at all as I can't see an option to do so.
The remote control learner does not learn at all, inspite of following all instructions. I have a Pioneer Amp to control music, but I've had no luck. After some research I've found out that the tablet can only learn from some models post 2011. Is this true?
I also have an Onkyo reciever for which I've downloaded the andriod app. This works well, but the app inevitably starts with the wrong orientation - inspite of my best efforts to hold the tab in the correct direction in which the app opened the last time. (It seems to rotate regardless)
I have no other issues such as force close or auto dimming as per my understanding of the most frequent issues on this forum
Thanks for your help guys. I really need it. Cheers
You could use "Advanced Task Killer free ( Or pro )
If you close an app does not mean it really shuts down but it wil stay there in memory,
The Task Killer will terminate all running apps.
Gmail is always running unless you uncheck the auto synchronize with Gmail,
you can find that in Settings / Accounts if that's what you meant.
I have several IR devices and i choose them from the device list no problems at all some actions didn't work well so I had to learn it from my remote control that worked fine to.
Orientation is a known issue but if you have your tablet rooted you could use a rotation app which requires root access something like full rotation i quess can't remember.
Don't mind my English

I have learned my tablet remotes from Dreambox 800HD (digitalbox for cable) and from my Harman Kardon AVR255 EU (reciever) and both are pre 2011. I also got it to work with a tv and digitalbox when I was visiting my father in the US. Can't remember the models though, but no problems with the remote. The tv in US was an old "fat-tv" not the new flat-tv
Honeycomb has no built-in method of killing apps at user request and for a good reason: Android does a better job itself. If Android needs to kill an app, it will do so, so you don't need to do it yourself. As for clearing history and the like, thats a bit trickier, but the stock Browser does include Incognito tabs for private browsing.
Gmail, on the other hand cannot be logged out of unless you go into Settings -> Accounts & Sync and either turn off Gmail sync (which still leaves you signed in, but not updating) or simply delete the Google Account. Gmail's not really made to be signed in or out of regularly.
As for your problems with the IR, thats definitely not the case and whatever your problems are, they're relatively isolated. Can you give us more detail on what you've tried and what happens when you do so?
With your Onkyo app, that almost invariably means that the developer has not included landscape support. If there is no landscape option for an app, it will force rotate to portrait, or vice versa if the app doesn't have portrait support. If you're sure they have, make sure that the Auto-Rotate Screen in your Settings toggles is set to On and if it still doesnt work, email the developer and let them know. Could be an isolated issue.
The question was not how to kill apps the question was how to delete recently opened apps and I have this question too. It seems there is no way.
Where are you finding these recently closed apps? As far as I knew Honeycomb didn't have any equivalent of the pre-3.0 "hold home button" dialog. The multitasking button in the bottom left shows running, paused and killed apps together, so there is no way to differentiate between recently used and closed apps, and recently used but still running apps.
maybe this helps

Yes on ICS. But ICS came out last night us only for the moment. And with he there is no way.

As Schrammi said, that is a new ICS feature and on Honeycomb, the only way to clear apps from the multitasking panel is to reboot (which will also end the app, obviously)

Had this phone for about 3 weeks now and I love it. I just have one problem with it.
In the stock messaging app, Kik, and a couple of other apps, my keyboard will occasionally freeze. Android keyboard, LG keyboard, Swype... They all do it.
But I can still type on it, it just won't show me a "live-shot" of what I'm typing. When I press the back button(hides keyboard), all the text that I typed would show up. For example, if I type/swype "I like cake", it won't show anything in the text field until I hide/exit out of the keyboard. Then it all the text shows up at once.
I've tried everything I know of. I've done a factory reset on the phone, I've disabled keyboards, I've uninstalled apps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! This isn't a huge pain because a restart temporarily fixes it, and this phone only takes like 45 seconds to reboot. It's just annoying since it happens several times a day.

Never happened to me....Are you stock, rooted, unlocked....if so what ROM/kernel are you running. It helps when you post as much information as possible so we might be able to determine if its something we can help with. That happened to me on my old Infuse ALOT, but i was flashing multiple ROM a day just playing around....

this is strange I have had no issues regarding this whether I was stock or otherwise. If you got it from best buy take it back and get another, I have gone through 3 LGOG until I found one that didnt have strange issues. But I also got mine early. Maybe some of the senior members have had this issue. Good Luck
Thanks for the replies. I'm not rooted and I've installed all the updates they've sent out so far. I've looked online and I haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem...
I got it from AT&T(They matched Best Buy's price for me!) and I have to go there in about a week to get a credit on my bill, so I'll just ask them to try to figure out what's going on.

I fixed it. Apparently one of the few apps that I did not uninstall was causing the problem. Tesla LED(Flashlight app) was causing the keyboard to freeze. I have no idea why... That app has nothing to do with the keyboard. But I uninstalled it, installed another flashlight app and haven't had a problem since Tuesday night.

Hahaha, no problem, man! I installed Tiny Flashlight + LED and added the widget to my home screen. So now all I need to do is tap the widget and the flashlight turns on.
Ya, so I havent downloaded any flashlight app, yet fairly frequently, in messaging, web browsing, and the like, my keyboard stops displaying input (sometimes even gestures in web browsing, such as swiping to move around the screen freeze too). The words and other things i change, such as where in a web page it is focused does take effect after hitting the menu key on the phone. Typing also seems to work regularly in landscape, but im not used to turning it every time i type and id rather not get used to it. It happens with the Android keyboard as well as the LG one, and might be related to the similiar freezing the google voice and swype brought, but im fairly positive i completely uninstalled those, so idk...

Hey guys I just notice this as well fresh from the att store, although I've only seen it only once. So I'm 100% sure it's not due to rooting/bootloader unlocked. My suspicion is some sort of memory leak in the LG keyboard service (it's loaded as well even though you're using android OS). I clear both keyboard data and reboot, never happened anymore since then.

What exactly do you mean?
Hi,
This is my first time specifically posting a question as a Q&A style thread so I hope I'm doing this right.
I have been using the Redmi Note 2 for about a month now. Overall, it's been a great phone (especially considering the price). However, I've been experiencing a couple of issues and I am hoping that some of you may be able to help.
I have rooted the phone but have not installed a ROM/kernel.
I have been using Wakelock Detector to track my battery life. Of most significance is com.baidu.map.location (NetworkLocation). I have attached the two screenshots showing the frequency of how often it wakes up my device. I tried to greenify it but it wouldn't allow me - it says "Sorry, "NetworkLocation" is ingreenifiable". Does anyone have any idea for me?
I have also been trying to use Amplify as another means to try and improve battery life. As mentioned, my phone is rooted, and the app prompted me to install the Xposed app which I did. However, after installing the app, it wants me to install the framework but it does not allow me to. I have attached the screenshot of this too.
Nova Launcher - Sometimes when I open the app drawer, the resolution of the app launcher appears funny. To fix it, I normally just press back and go back into the app drawer and it goes back to normal. I have attached a screenshot of what this roughly looks like. This is not a big deal but can be a little annoying. Has anyone experienced this?
SD Maid - I used to use this app on my old Galaxy S3 i9305 to clear out storage space taken up by unnecessary stuff. This app no longer works on this phone. I have attached a screenshot of the issue that I am having.
I have downloaded Auto Call Recorder from the app store with the intention of having it automatically record my phone conversations. It does not work but I am unable to figure out why. I have checked the settings and I cannot identify any obvious setting that is incorrectly configured.
Flynx - I have been trying to use Flynx as it appears to be an incredibly useful app, but it seems something is not working correctly. In the screenshot that I have attached, where it says "Tap on the bubble to open it!" I am assuming there is a bubble that is supposed to appear for me to tap, but it does not appear.
APUS Launcher/Clean Master - finally and maybe most worryingly, I sometimes get 2 or 3 apps "pushed" to my device prompting me to install it. I can only remember 2 at the moment; APUS Launcher and Clean Master. Fortunately, I am asked to give the app permission for installation but it worries me because it has occurred a few times and I did not download it at all. I do not have a screenshot of this at the moment, but I will do it next time it occurs.
I have been told that my provider (Vaya in Australia) sends out a SMS for "automatic update" purposes. I only spotted this because I have noticed that I was charged for 2 separate international SMS on 2 occasions when I did not send them (to a UK number, +44 7786209730). I am not sure whether this one is a phone problem or something else.
I appreciate any of your assistance in advance and I am sorry if I have not provided enough information. I am also not sure as to which issues may simply be app problems as opposed to a problem with MIUI software or Xiaomi.
Hope I will be able to get some assistance!

Does the crash happen when the dialog opens, or when you click the orange entry?
Try giving your sdcard a name, possibly doing it from a desktop computer.
Hi, the crash happens when I click on "Overview" then click on "To start press [refresh icon]" and then you just press there - what normally happens is it will give a overall summary of the phone.
However, I have just tried it again. When that error message comes up, instead of tapping on the listed entry (as is instructed), I press "Done" and it is able to give me a summary!
So for some reason it appears as though it doesn't work (at least from the error message), and I just press done and it still works.
Thanks for your reply nevertheless! Would not have figured that out had you not replied hahaha.
If you just press "done", SD Maid won't have access to your external sdcard.
Did you try installing the Xiaomi EU rom, since it's supposed to be cleaned from chinese apps (Like the baidu one).
Hi all,
Sorry it seems like I never came back to expand what I have done to try and fix these problems.
I ended up changing to Hermes ROM here http://www.smiui.net/redminote2_hermes.php
Most of the issues above are now solved, but there are some that are still present such as #2 and #5. So Amplify still doesn't work, but I think this is a hardware limitation and Auto Call Recorder still doesn't work. As for why Auto Call Recorder doesn't work, I don't know why, but I am not greatly bothered by it so I have not attempted to do anything to resolve that problem.
