This 120 seconds security method is simply annoying as every time I need to receive some file via BT I have to go to settings menu and click discoverable option.I am asking is that is there any way to make it permanent ? I mean to make device discoverable whole BT on time ?
Thanks in advance

there is no way to disable that on stock rom....

i guess you will have to live with it like i did
no rom is as complete as s.e tweaked which is based on stock rom which means 120 sec discoverable bluetooth

You could install bluetooth file transfer from market (free).. This will give you a widget that can enable BT discovery (quicker than going through menus) and it enables it for 300 sec.. Perhaps that will help.

Thanks for this,now easier to to receive files,only problem is widget background and widget looks really ugly,still can live with that

No problem, you might find file transfer is easier with that app too.. As it gives you ftp and opp for receiving, then if you download "my phone explorer client" you'll find windows will(or at least might) be able to explore your phone over bt in its native file explorer.. BT is a pain on android, but with the addition of a few free apps its almost usable

if you use a statusbar mod like this one,

with a long press of the bt switch it opens right to the settings of bt, without having to navigate with the traditional way

So it is with me also, can some help me..? I can not use any keyboard on x8 except default...
First of all install this keyboard, then go to settings/language and keyboard/there you will find your keyboard, select it. Then go (for example) to writing message, long touch on writing screen and select Gingerbread keyboard. That's all! Nothing difficult!

[Recommendation] "Shush! Ringer Restorer" app to time silence mode

I highly recommend this awesome free app to all users. Basically what it does is that if you mute your ringer or press VOL- all the way. The "shush!" app triggers itself for you to set a time before the ringer is auto-restored.
Great layout and easy to control. I used to forget my mobile on silent in my pocket and miss important calls. But now with this gem I estimate how long I need the mobile to be silent and all done slick and easy.
The timer can be controlled using the VOL buttons or by touching the circle in rotation motion.

same here. one of the first free apps I re-download after a format.
Agreed, Shush is awesome! Have you tried Silent Time? Its another good one. You tell it what times you want the phone to be silent (work, school) and you dont have to remember to silence or restore, its done automatically. And you can set exceptions if there is someone you want to be able to get hold of you.

Enable Voice Calling On Any WIFI Flyer - GB (Untested on EVO View but should work)

I bought these headphones for voice calling and did a test run on my Best Buy WIFI Flyer: http://www.amazon.com/Skullcandy-Microphone-Control-Switch-S2INDY-045/dp/B004P1ITUS
Installing a compatible app, fast internet, an active google voice account and having the headphones such as the ones above you we are able to make and receive calls through our Tablets.
Now I used the same set up on all kinds of different Honeycomb ROMs and it did not work regardless of which one I used.
So to simplify, this is the procedure:
1.) Enable Wifi on your Tablet
2.) Download and install your preferred app for voice dialing. Mine required a sync to Google Voice which is awesome since I have all my contacts (List is here)
3.) Enable settings on the app to make or receive calls if necessary (Tap Settings < Troubleshooting and put a check mark on - Wifi Tablet)
4.) Plug in your headphone with mic or bluetooth if you can get it working, I couldnt make it work via bluetooth but only tried on one device)
4.) You are golden
Enjoy your voice calls now fully compatible on your Android Tablet

Sorry for the late reply, I havent been on xda for weeks now.
You may have to downgrade to a Gingerbread Rom first.
If you get it working on HC, hats off to you, but I was never able to get it properly working on that flavor of Android.

[APP] PORTING S-BARO ALTIMETER/BAROMETER GALAXY S3 App with AUTOCALIBRATION. HELP!

Hi, Does anyone know to port this application to total Xperia Active Galaxy S3.
This application is a barometer, an altimeter but also high precision (about 5 times more precise than GPS) this is possible because the application of S-Baro fit the data of the nearest weather station with barometer is that with the GPS;
The result is a maximum error of only 15 meters.
The application is already installed and works with ICS on my XPERIA ACTIVE but the graphics are cut with lcd_density: 160 stocks that
As if in build.prop lcd_density port: 120
in this case the application can be seen perfectly as screenshot below.
With build.prop / lcd_density: 160

Does anyone know how to change the S-Baro app to use it with the correct graphics leaving lcd_density: 160 that is stock?
Thank you for your interest.

I just tried the change is made, but putting it in System / app installs but when I go to start it gives me "locked in an unusual way" that does not open, but it immediately crashes.

Thank you very much look forward to hearing from you is a very well done app.
Do you remember your Xperia Active must have ICS as the app is for Galaxy S3 (ICS).
I installed the ICS stock of Sony.
Thank you for your interest.
I tried to resize the files .Png in the folder "drawable-xhdpi" and the situation seems improved but not resolved because the write lines of text do not seem to have moved.
Does anyone have a solution?

Solution for TTPod
Put This Proxy Address in your WiFi or Internet Settings.
Use it only when you want to access TTPod Services,
Else Disable it.
what about adroid phone?

Install ProxyDroid (Free) from Play, set it for per app proxy on ttpod so it would not affect your normal browsing..

Here is the screenshot.
Please help if you have got any other fix.
If you're lucky enough...this worked for me!
I also hate "IP RESTRICTED" made me very mad!!! Try this if you are lucky enough to be on an android device with titanium backup, roll back to the earlier version of TTPOD. I switched back to a version I had on backup 5.4.0516 that allowed me to be able to search, listen to/stream, and download songs again as was normal. I hope this helps, please spread the word (if it does)!!! Let's get everyone back on the working TTPOD!!!
It worked for me, I hope that it will work for others too!

Proxydroid needs Android to be rooted to run. Is there an app to run without root?
