Done and done! Good info thank you.

I have always just had web history turned off. So is this saying I need to turn it on and modify settings before the policy takes place?

No.
If u already had it turned off then no changes are necessary. But I'd double check history the fun of it.

[Q] Why isn't phone announcing callers?

I noticed today that my SGSII no longer tells me who's calling. I don't know when it stopped doing it so I can't trace it back to something I did or installed. I know it was doing it, but not what app or process is responsible for it or why it no longer does. I remember there was a setting choice on whether to do this, but I can't find it nor did I turn it off. I'm guessing maybe Juice Defender or some other app may be inhibiting it. Any clues?
Do you mean callerid? CityID does that, but i think it is trial or something. Try TrueCaller, it is free from their website.

sms to not load all messages at once?

hello, as my first android phone i have to say i love the skyrocket. as soon as i got it i did research prior to getting it and now i am rooted with nexusmod's GB rom.
but enough of that, my one simple question is:
is there a way to limit the number of messages that are loaded in a conversation?
this way the phone doesn't lag when opening a conversation of thousands of messages. it would be nice to have it like how it loads on the iphone, although i'd rather have the skyrocket anyday.
i am currently just using sms backup and deleting messages when there are too many. is this my only option?
thanks

I believe you can change that in the messages settings... Just like on the i777, however, maybe looking in the skyrocket forums might provide a more concrete result.

No, you need to grab a 3rd party SMS app for that.
I have the same problem when opening threads with over 5k messages which is why I use GoSMS.
Even though this is the wrong forum, I believe it still the same messaging app.
Would changing the limit from 1000 to say, 100, not do the job?

No, that will just keep more messages and won't delete till 1k per thread.
Not what you want if you like to have your messages.
GoSMS & iPhone load the messages so you have to click "Load More" see every 20 messages or so, not sure the number.
It prevents from loading thousands of messages at once which lags like crazy.
I am sure other 3rd party sms apps have the ability as well, I just don't know which since I only use 1.

Roam Control options???

I noticed that the "Roam Control" app does not work for the SIII. I cam from an EVO 3D using "MeanROM" and he had 'Roam Only' built in and it came in VERY HANDY. If you are on the fringe of Sprint, you can switch to 'Roam Only' and it will lock on the roaming partner in the area and most of the work much better.
Anyone have a solution for this on the SIII ??

screw prl edits... I've been attempting this mod over and over on galaxy s phones since the og epic. lol
Problem being, is that the smali looks nothing like the EVO's, or any HTC phone for that matter. HTC either built in, or didn't remove the methods used to switch roam only on or off. I have a feeling i might be persisitant enought this time around (now that i own the phone i'm dev'ing on) to get the job done. As i've also found Roam control not to be working here. We'll see how it goes. Keep your eyes peeled. This is def a mod i want to bring over to the G series
Oh yeah... you're def on the wrong section. This is a Q&A post for sure. lol
Myn said he would try to put it in his ROM too....
I have emailed the roam control Dev twice and no response....

As with all other cautions, roam only when necessary and use Sprint or Wifi for major downloads. Abusing Sprint's roam agreement can get you terminated. Apparently 300MB per month or so brings your account to their attention.
If you force a Verizon PRL, simply update your PRL normally to return to Sprint.
AS A NOTE: This is a Question. It belongs in the Q&A. No doubt it will be moved shortly. That little sticky thread labeled "READ THIS FIRST - Development Rules" clearly dictates what is allowed in the development forum.

Putting more "smart" in our smart phone

Looking for an add-on or app that will lend some intelligence to the Rezound in the areas of notifications and sounds (or, if it's already there and I am missing how to do it, please advise).
Specifically, I am hoping to find a way to do the following:
- Let me program a "night" mode - so during certain hours (say, 11PM-7AM?) my notifications sounds are muted (buzz is ok)
- Need to do this independently of the ringer (as I don't want my ringer muted during this time)
- Need to be able to control the reminder buzz/sound. Don't need to be constantly buzzed at night when an email comes in and I don't acknowledge it
- One more for the wish list - a way to tell my alarm I keep set for Mon-Fri that I want it to skip one day (such as on the 4th last week, when I was off). Would prefer that to turning off the alarm, and setting a reminder in my calendar to enable the alarm again the next day.
FYI, running Nil's ICS Business Sense 5.3 ROM.

Btw - THAT was a good response.
I don't mind a learning curve, and at least now I have some clue as to what to research...also figured someone may have already created a mod or tweak (or app) to do these sorts of things, hence why I asked.
Seems these would be basic functions you would expect to find in a smart phone?

Well just so you know, me, jayochs, nosympathy, and maybe blestsol and superchilpil are very likely to give you sarcastic/trollish answers lol
And I was just saying you could do it manually like put it on silent and stuff if you play around in both sound settings and the messaging app settings
Got it...thanks for the heads-up.
FYI, I found what I was looking for on the wife's new Droid4 called Smart Actions.
Seems its a Moto only app, but I found one called Llama that seems to work in a similar fashion.
Can automate all sorts of things (and provide exclusions by contact if you like) based on location, time, or various actions.

In the contacts page, he is correct. The person's picture dims. But within a hangout, it doesn't show you. It used to have a message telling you they were offline. Now it just tells you up to which point they have read.
